Goblin Druid Skin

[z00rtaz]

Hello guys!

I want to put up a skin request for the goblin model Dan van Ohllus made.
Its a goblin mage which I would like to be made to look like a druid.
It will mostly be up to the artist to make the skin as they see fit
but I think that Hueters Druid Of The Talon skin
pretty much shows the real deal of what I imagine the goblin to look like (see attached pictures).
I would like his staff to me more branch like rather than ''High warlock'' like.
I also would like his robes to be more leafy and brown (look at pic 3)
The picture on the book he carries around I would like to be reskinned a little more looking
like an old druids spell book. Basicly leaves and brown and such. I also would like him to have
some facial hair, as he actually is a hermit living in the forest in my campaign.


Link to the map thread:

There you can see what type of character the little fella is and maybe get some more ideas.

Team colour is not needed!

This is Dan van Ohllus Version:

Of course +rep to the skinner and credits in the map =)
I got permision by Dan van Ohllus to reskin his model.

Just to get sure, you know that retexturing this model would - when imported - take extrem filesize because of the huge amount of different textures, that are used by the model?

 

[z00rtaz]

I am well aware of that, but as the map I'm working on is a campaign, File Size won't bother me much. Thanks for a response though!

 

[M0rbid]

Okay, so then I could think of giving it a try

Ok, WiP time


Please feel free to keep me on track with your thoughts!

So finally I come up with something close or a real final result, i wasn't able to fix everything, and I must say, DvO did an awesome job on using the textures, but it's very hard to recreate new one with good wrapping.
So I had to skip some of the things I thought of in the first place.
Would you mind if you would have to transform tga files into blp files on your own?
Then you could set the quality values to whatever you need....
And do you need a custom freehanded icon, too?
Would take a while though...
So here comes the Final (WiP if you wish me to change anything and I am able to do so).
