67chrome: This skin could use more polishing and finishing touches, though it still looks all right and seems to be generating a small fan base as well. I approve of this skin

 

[AIagremm]

Intersting. You have to much gray on the head and forehead, add some lines or teamcolor, and then it would be awesome.

 

[Bernkastel]

I Hope i removed enough of the gray from it Would've added team color but wasnt possible :I

 

[AIagremm]

Much better!

 

[PsychoNerdial]

Hmmm interesting... Needs more highlights/shading on the face though

 

[Bernkastel]

I'll do my best

 

[PsychoNerdial]

Ok good^^ Cuz right now it looks a bit flat

 

[Piwlady]

pretty good

 

[Darkmoon Hero]

Hmmm interesting... Needs more highlights/shading on the face though

The whole thing needs more highlights/shading, in my opinion.
Otherwise, I like it.

 

[Dentothor]

Wayyy blurry.
it also lacks quite a bit of shading and highlights. making it look very unwarcraftish

 

[67chrome]

The metallic parts seem a little light, you need to add much more shading to them. The body is very dark, you need to add more highlights to it. Overall you need more contrast, as this skin looks incredibly flat right now.

Also, it looks like the portrait wraps the face a little differently than the full sized model, work with the face for the portrait as that is all anyone will really see it in, or at least much more frequently than on the in-game model.

The team color looks rather sloppy right now, see if you can incorporate it into the skin rather than having it drastically contrast with and sit on top of the skin.

 

[Piwlady]

looks pretty damn more bettah now.

 

[Orc-of-Azeroth]

Its good but i an see the original nerubian on it to me it kinda looks like u slapped color on certain spots and added team color, good effort tho

unwrap looks better than the model skin to me

 

[67chrome]

Looks like a very dark blob now :/

When WC3 uses textures it doesn't use as many colors as Photoshop has access to, it uses a lot less. If your texture is very close in tone all of your shading will literally be nonexistent. You need to have highlights and shading. Also, the "shading" on the face mask seems a little inconsistent and awkward for a single piece of metal, keep in mind how it is going to wrap on the skin when you are shading it, as well as the light source, which in the case of WC3 is from above.

a bunch of a black, weird mess, that's what it is...

learn to paint

 

[Piwlady]

Your face is a mess, can't see any mess there... -_-

 

[Dentothor]

it's his first skin, so have mercy

it doesnt matter if its his first skin or his 1000th skin. the mods shall show no mercy. >

and were just critiqueing it. its not like were flaming him to do what we ask.

 

[AIagremm]

Dentohor is right!

 

[Bernkastel]

Well that u guys dont like it is your opinion. I like it and probably some others like it too

 

[Dentothor]

The mods dont like it. and thats all that matters atm. they dont care that YOU think it looks good

 

[Bernkastel]

I know that.. But if its not approved i dont really care

 

[Cthulus]

I think you should have used a white background in the screenshot. It would have made it more visible that way.. Otherwise, it's a rather good skin, and pretty useful.
4/5 Recommended

 

[Misha]

erm.. more highlights on the metal and cloth?

 

[breebree123]

its good and nice
4/5

 

[67chrome]

Hmm - shading and highlights could still use a lot of work. The minimal changes you are doing to it reminds me of how I started with one of my skins. If you are using a screenshot of the nerubian warrior try to keep in mind that different lighting environments can make drastic changes on how much highlights there are on models, usually making them less noticeable and less colorful. So I want you to make the contrast of this model more extreme to counter-balance this.

Here is a picture of a Nerubian warrior without interference from in-game lighting

Notice how the highlights on the metal go to white, and the shadows on the beast's underside go to black. Each portion of the skin also has a large tonal range, changing very noticeably from a light to a much darker tone, or vise versa.

 

[Bernkastel]

Could some say something about it now?

 

[67chrome]

The shading and highlights on the face mask are better now, but everything else could use a lot more work. Also, try to do more dramatic changes between each update

 

[scorpion182]

Much better now, i like it

 

[67chrome]

Any plans on updating this? Your pretty close to getting it to a level were I can approve it, mostly you need to work on having a greater differance between the highlights and shading of this skin, some finishing touches such as making the armor pieces look as though they are overlapping one another would be nice to see on this as well

 

[Bernkastel]

K... I updated it.. Dunno is it too light now.. Just say what ur gonna say.

 

[VitA.NovA]

looks more like a robot spider to me..

 

[Cthulus]

It looks sloppy at first glance. However, it seems acceptable and the face looks awesome However, I've never seen the WoW Nerubian Warrior, so I can't really make the similarity critique. 4.5/5 Highly Recommended

 

[Misha]

looks good while the fiend abdomen looks like it's non-existing Ouo;

 

[Piwlady]

woot, this is still in pending :O

 

[RiotZ]

Meh 4\5

 

[VampireofBlood]

I have seen alot of spiderskins, but this one is really promising.
Not to Bright not to Dark, just fine

 

[Bernkastel]

Ppl still commenting this? :O.. It's nice that you like it ^^

 

[VampireofBlood]

Ofc. it is good so why not

 

[SilentDoom]

Nice job

 

[Rufus]

Well done!

 

[morbent]

The head is awesome... and the plate on it's back.
5/5 for your hard work and the idea!

 

[LISBOAH]

Looks very good. Good job!
