Gronn-like Ogre

[frostwhisper]

Well, basically this is mah first skin. I wanted to turn the ogre into a somewhat gronn-like creature.
I chose to edit the ogre skin because of the easy unwrap.
The skin is in WIP phase, and still needs lots of work.
Ideas and criticism are more than welcome.
And yes, I will fix that line in the middle

Looks good so far, I like the start of it
That face is pretty sweet, but your gonna have to do some good shading on it

Update (there's progress I hope)
Don't mind the other head... it's not gonna be like this in the final result.

 

[THE_END]

That looks awesome man
Keep it up

 

[frostwhisper]

I'm nearly done...
Probably will add some more details/shading tomorrow or something.
Do you think it's worth submitting to the skin database?

 

[THE_END]

With the details and shading added..then hell yes

I think this skin is looking awesome, the one thing that really sticks out to me that needs a little touching up is the red blood-splatter or whatever it is on the shoulders.

 

[frostwhisper]

That's the team color. And I have absolutely no idea how to change it T-T

 

[THE_END]

Just remove it then
Or make those tatoos on his shoulder team colored

 

[frostwhisper]

I would love to make them team colored. Yet i need to find out how to do that...
Oh and where do you suggest I add more shading? Or were you referring to the skin as a whole?

 

[THE_END]

Yea there are no highlights/dark areas on the skin
Make some

It's cool, but why does his club is purple?

[I really liked your new christimas signature, Saas' hat rocks!]

 

[frostwhisper]

I re-did the club. It was supposed to look like one of Dreanor's trees, yet it didn't work, so yeah. I will add as much shading as my skills allow me to get this approved in the skin section, but I am kinda busy lately so I don't have much time to tweak it.

And \Naze, thanks ^^

 

[thisruoy]

why didnt u just use the sasquatch model, ti think that would have been a better gronn

 

[frostwhisper]

I was planning to... but I decided to use this one for a first skin attempt as the unwrap is as simple as possible.

Mmmmk, this is how you do it. Go into photoshop(if you dont have photoshop go and get it now before I murder you) and open the file of your skin(TGA file). Then go to Windows>Show Channels. Then select the alpha channel, there should just be one. Then you will see that some areas are black, where the majority of the skin is white, to remove team color simply select the black area, I use the lasso tool, and Right Click>Fill-White. Then go back the the RBG channel and add in texture to the area that you colored white in the alpha channel(should be selected) and the team color will be gone and be replaced with the texture you added.
