Dwarf Archer WIP

[camel's_hump]

Wip of the Wildhammer Archer model made by Mc ! for WotTH. C&C appreciated.

 

[Kimbo]

hes armor seems to be abit odd..
i think it needs some form of border to it since the armor looks like the mapping was just randomly placed on the pads..

 

[ArcticInferno]

I thought dwarves were supposed to use rifles and machinery....
anyways, I agree that the armor is weird. Doesn't look right. It needs outlines and such.

 

[Deleted member 126647]

The shading on the armor is nice, the shoulders need a good trim, possibly silver, or something of the sort.

On another note, the arms seem to go too far into the torso, perhaps the chest armor needs to be a bit wider near the top to extend closer to the shoulders?

The face is really good, the beard needs some work though.

 

[Archian]

I like the face , keep it up

 

[camel's_hump]

Update, getting close to finishing him. I actually made deccent pant folds!

 

[ArcticInferno]

Looks less odd now.

 

[camel's_hump]

If that was a compliment then it was rather strange one.

Teeny update, I hate jpgs in paint

 

[Kimbo]

oooohhh... i really love what you have done with the boots, but the armor (mainly the pauldrons) is still lacking outline, your going to fix that right?

 

[camel's_hump]

What I'm wondering is what you mean by giving the pauldrons an outline:S I don't see what you mean. They have nice details as is.

 

[brad.dude03]

She means that there is no real end where the material would be stitched together or whatever. Like with the pauldrons the material just ends with it sitting perfectly in place which doesn't look right at all since that is quite impossible. So, she's just looking for something that would go around the edge of the pauldrons for example that would outline and appear to be holding everything together.

 

[camel's_hump]

Meh, I'll change it later.

 

[Kimbo]

yes, what brad.dude03 said.... ty for explaining it

oh and you don't have to change it camel, its your skin after all.

 

[THE_END]

Him having no shirt under that armor looks strange, put something on those arms

 

[Deleted member 126647]

Indeed the pants are lovely. Best I've seen from you.

The back of the arms looks like sausages, I don't understand the muscles there.

And as I said before, the arms seem to go too far into his torso, almost like he has no shoulders.

Keep it up, I see improvement, especially in the pants and gloves.

 

[brad.dude03]

Yes, the details and the etxtures are nice, but some of the appearence is off. Really I don't mind because in an overhead game like WC3 you aren't going to be noticing all of the details, and yours does more then enough of a good job of resembling a dwarf archer, there are just some minimal, barely noticable flaws as was pointed out.

 

[falcoknight]

I agree with wulf on the shoulders needing an outline, also his muscles and face have some serious anatomical issues. But really nice nonetheless!

 

[Ezikielth]

i like it, perhaps a strap to secure the shoulder pads would benefit the model and make it seem more complete

 

[camel's_hump]

Finished him finally.

 

[brad.dude03]

Excellent, although the shoulderpads still don't have an outline and the hat looks like a fishing hat

 

[camel's_hump]

Thanks, and the hat is supposed to look like this

 

[brad.dude03]

Ah very sweet. Is that a Samwise drawing?

 

[Capcy]

Ah very sweet. Is that a Samwise drawing?

nope...

twincruiser

 

[brad.dude03]

Ah, my mistake. Either or, it kicks ass

 

[Sansui]

Serious flaw in the face. The eyes are WAY to spread from each other.
besides that the face is nice. and when this picture loads up i will C&C the other parts of the skin.

 

[Kanaru]

I still say he looks really bad. Look how far apart his eyes are. Makes him looked drugged up.

 

[Kimbo]

dude, the dwarf dude is old, its normal for old people to have those.

 

[brad.dude03]

But tyhat far apart? It does look knd of retarded now that you look at it lol

 

[camel's_hump]

Its the unwrap's fault that they are stretched over like that.

 

[brad.dude03]

Well as long as you didn't intend it to be like that

 

[Crin]

It doesn't matter if it was intended or not. That just means he needs to change the skin to fit the model.

 

[camel's_hump]

It doesn't work like that, the eyes are right now in the closest place to where they should be where they aren't stretched like the nose or side of the face.

 

[Crin]

It does in fact work like that, if you have ever skinned on the DH you would know how to work it. Even if you have to deform the look on the unwrap to make it look right on the skin you should. The end result is better. If you cant you should re-wrap the face because its a shame to see it go to waste like that.

 

[camel's_hump]

Look, I fiddled around with the skin as much as I could to get it so nothing was stretched out making it look like crap. From a small distance it is not noticeable, even from the portrait angle it is not noticable.

 

[Deleted member 126647]

I think it gives him character, and makes him more senile.

 

[Xlightscreen]

the hat kinda gives him a civilian look rather then a military look.

 

[camel's_hump]

He's supposed to look like that since Wildhammers are extremely poor.

 

[Xlightscreen]

Well I guess he can go fishing after he is done fighting lol.

 

[Ezikielth]

i suggest a bigger face, if u look at dwarves from wc3 they have mongo heads
and hair needs help

why all models must be war3craftish? camel has his own vision of his dwarves...
they dont need to look like those from wc3 to be good
