Looks much better now. Nice execution of the shading and details on this skin.

 

[Xezko]

Don't bother about a better screnshot, just download the damn skin. Ok? Thanks.

 

[TheHunterKiller]

Awesome and useful, end of story.

 

[Karaterat]

looks cool. but the weapon for me is a turnoff

 

[Elfsilver Lord]

It looks rather... bland.

 

[AIagremm]

Xezko, this is amazing. 5/5
Great idea, really looks like a gladiator.

 

[Mr.Goblin]

It's really nice, but really repetitive, Grey and metalpink (if it's the name) doesn't work together at all, wich makes the skin lame, even tought the quality is really really good.

D:

A simple recolor would be needed i think.

 

[VampireofBlood]

a nice elite soldier for the aliance

 

[TurtleRacingCar]

nice to see you become better and better
good skin so far. you could improve it, if you add some reflections on the metalparts

 

[Xezko]

Thanks everybody for comments.
So, what colours will looks good for it? I'm interesting on improve.

 

[Elfsilver Lord]

You would best get a sorta theme, maybe like blood elven, with flaming red and bright gold. Also, a few rivets and bolts on armor sections can really spice a texture up.

 

[Xezko]

Well, i'm planing to do a serie of skins for some models with this theme. I like the color scheme i choose, but seems that people doesnt think as me. So, THIS IS NOT A BLOOD ELVE. This is a Turukkian, a human from Turukk Kingdom. This isnt made for fit Wc3 Lore.
So, again, Any idea of a better color scheme?

 

[Ghost765]

gunmetal grey and like...crimson red. or something of the sort.
this works too:

 

[Misha]

YES! Give us a better screenshot

 

[ike_ike]

Dang, that's neat. Don't see anything wrong with the colours either.The little highlights on the armour edges are nice.

 

[VampireofBlood]

hmm it dont works in my map. :/
do i have to use an extra version like tft or roc?

 

[Xezko]

This skin works with a TFT model, called Felguard, so, you need to have TFT to make it work.

Well, Ghost's Idea is good, but i like the colorscheme right now. So, not change to colors.

 

[VampireofBlood]

I have TfT and even tried it with the extra TfT, but it didnt work.
is it the Felguard or the blueFelguard?
(I tried both but it didnt work either^^)

 

[Xezko]

err... you need to export it as Units\Demon\Felguard\Felguard.blp its also work for blue felguard, you just change the path to Units\Demon\BlueFelguard\BlueFelguard.blp

You need to restart WE after importing it to your map.

 

[The_Grapist]

Great skin.
Awesome work Xezko.
I will give it +REP when i am able to give REP.

 

[PsychoNerdial]

The wrap hates you xD
Only bad thing otherwise would be the weapon, kinda boring :/

 

[FrIkY]

Nice work, Xezko, quality looks nice. Only thing is... *yawn*, it looks a bit boring. Maybe you should ad some carvings to the armor and ad more highlights. Oh yeah, you should also do something with the weapon, to make it look more cooler.

4/5

thx.
Normaly i dont have any problems with this, i will try it again

 

[Xezko]

Thank you everybody, I maybe will improve it. Cya!

 

[Ghost765]

ok, is this a regular unit? or a hero? if is a regular unit, its fine, if its a hero, its not fine.

 

[VampireofBlood]

its a regular, but everyone can use it as he wants to i guess

 

[Xezko]

Updated. Some little changes and a... Cooler weapon?

 

[TheHunterKiller]

Ah, the weapon is much more awesome now! .

 

[Grog50]

The weapon is still boring. It needs something besides the same gray as the armor. Also you should make his skin more saturated and fleshy. I think that would add some needed saturation

 

[Archangel_Tidusx]

looks cool. but the weapon for me is a turnoff

The weapon is still boring. It needs something besides the same gray as the armor. Also you should make his skin more saturated and fleshy. I think that would add some needed saturation

The wrap on the weapon makes it sort of impossible to make good.

 

[Xezko]

Archangel is right. The Wrap on the weapon is just FUCKING HORRIBLE. That makes almost impossible to do a good weapon with it. So, it's all i can do for now.

 

[wereguy2]

Eh, it looks kinda boring and blurry..
I love the weapon though.

 

[67chrome]

Medium gray isn't necessarily an exciting color, kind of reminds me of the carpet at office buildings, Kinkos, the school library, and generally every place that equals work and no play

Add more contrast to the armor at least, with the level of highlights it looks more like it is made of plastic than anything else. Most metallic objects have more shine than that, a lot more. Get portions of the armor up to white and portions down to black, the more extreme and greater the pure black and pure white regions are, the shinier the armor will look. Right now your shading on the armor is closer to the level needed on things such as skin tone or cloth, were there is 0 shine. This skin has way to much medium gray on it to, even the weapon seems primarily one color. See if you can get the blade of the weapon to be a much lighter color, the rest of the metal a darker color, and the shaft a wooden brown.

Anyways, add a few spots of color here and their and add much more shading and highlights and this skin will get approved

 

[Xezko]

Okay Chrome! Let's see what i can do... ^^

 

[Falconeye]

Very cool dude! Reminds me of an executioner of some sort lol.

 

[VampireofBlood]

Can you paste the idea factory site?
I want to have a look on your project

 

[Xezko]

Added more contrast and some lil details.
Chrome, listen: I dont want to put too much color variatons and uber details to these skins for some reason that I cant reveal atm. Its related to my project. ^^
You will see why later, when I upload more skins (and models).
So, here you go.

EDIT:
@VampireofBlood: I still dont have the "idea factory site" this is still in my mind and i will open a thread on Map Development when i get this almost to 45% done.

 

[VampireofBlood]

ah ok
then have fun and dont hurry to much

 

[wereguy2]

Looking good now

 

[Reygn]

I think gold lining on some of the armor plates would spice it up a bit, but thats your choice.

 

[AIagremm]

A guy with a long nose, strange hair cut throwing axes... Gold wont suit him, I think.

 

[wereguy2]

I think gold lining on some of the armor plates would spice it up a bit, but thats your choice.

Tru, a little bit, though, as too much would ruin the feel of the skin.

 

[TheHunterKiller]

God, it's amazing now.

 

[VampireofBlood]

+REP now for good skin in the end

 

[Gausslander]

I can never gets skins on the felguard to show up in-game, lol.
I've been doing this for years--but I've always had trouble with that unit.
I've tried the paths, and for all other units it works, but not for this one -.-

Guard is misspelled gaurd in all the felguard paths

 

[InfernalTater]

Looks great, 4/5!

Useful with the others.
