I look for my queen (model & icon)

[YoshiRyu]

Hello,

I'm making a Chess Game humans vs orcs, but i've a big problem
As you've probably noticed, there is no female in orc units!!!
So I need some help to add the orcish queen.

Request summary
Model 3D (modeling, remodeling or reskinning) and icon
design: warcraft-styled orcish female wizzard hero
use: orcish queen in a chess game

If someone is interrested, this is what i need:
A animated model, with its portrait and also its icon (a full unit so) of a female orc (you can made it from a existing model, like a night elve)

it's have to observe the graphical design of warcraft III
this female orc have to be rather magical one (like a sorceress)
she's supposed to be a hero (so i hope for the glow)
no mount, no fx, only a simple orcish unit
use player color (unlike medihv)

I'll be very grateful ^^

PS: my game thread: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/showthread.php?p=285090#post285090

Nb: I'm actually using the OrcHuntress fan model, but i'm not satisfied, i don't have an associated icon, its a warrior styled unit, and the hero glow is to down and often go under the ground :/

Well i cant find any hero once but here are some you may be able to use as place holders (not exactly magic ones)

Orcs have no females.

 

[Kimbo]

....

seriously..go play WoW.

 

[Arab4life]

Frostwolf looks like he makes alot of Orc Females, try pming him (If he's still around).

Or you could ask for a skin convertion (E.g Jaina to an orcish Jaina Model)

OR you could make the skin yourself, check out the tutorials. I WOULD make the skin for you, but my computer is a little down... Cant do anything right now.

Off topic:

Orcs have no females.

So that must mean they're gay...

 

[Mechanical Man]

No. They reproduce theirselves with spores.

YoshiRyu, there is nothing wrong with using male orcs as the queen. There are for example American civil war themed pieces.

 

[Arab4life]

Thats true, you dont really need an orc princess.. make like a shamen instead, Orcs probebly give different titles then humans. More tribal titles, like Warchief, and Shamen. So make those 2 King and queen.

 

[YoshiRyu]

Thanks everyone

@Werewulf : thanks, it probably means that i'm very bad at using the search tool, i'll take a look!

Or you could ask for a skin convertion (E.g Jaina to an orcish Jaina Model)

Yes, i've said that "you can made it from a existing model, like a night elve"

OR you could make the skin yourself, check out the tutorials.

No no no, no, i've said no! I can't; the perfect opposite of "infographist" is YoshiRyu ^^'

YoshiRyu, there is nothing wrong with using male orcs as the queen.

I must be more chess-purist than americans ^^

Off topic: Maybe, the orcs use genetic science to reproduct themself...

 

[Kimbo]

No..they have sex..seriously.....

You kids need to play WoW.. its only been out for like what....4 years? tsk tsk..

anyway, gl and your map is lookin great btw.

 

[YoshiRyu]

We're joking ;p

 

[Mechanical Man]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ork_%28Warhammer_40%2C000%29#Reproduction

 

[YoshiRyu]

looks like he's not joking...
orc have females, they are playable in wow
and they are existing in books (Thrall have a mother)
so maybe they reproduct themself by spores (but wiki aren't always right)
but blizzard himself show us orcish female

Edit after better wiki title reading:
it's a wiki about warhammer and not warcraft -_-

 

[Mechanical Man]

Bah, orcs are orcs, whether in warhammer, warcraft, lord of the rings, ....

 

[YoshiRyu]

orcs don't exist -_-
there is no rule, so if blizzard want to say they've female, no matter if warhammer don't say the same, blizzard is free to describe its own orcs, and i'm also free to prefere a female queen for my map.

can you stop trolling my request only to say your better know something wich doesn't exist?

 

[YoshiRyu]

anyway, gl and your map is lookin great btw.

Sorry but i'm french, what mean "gl" and "btw"?
EDIT: "good luck" and "by the way" maybe

 

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

Enough about orc sex.

Orcs have women too. They're ugly as hell, but they're still women.

 

[Chaos Overlord]

gl: good luck
btw: by the way,

You will get to know them eventually. Lol camels_hump has experience with skinning Jaina, so you may want to talk to him, though I am not at all sure he will take a request.

 

[YoshiRyu]

Thanks
but I don't wank to ask it to someone in particular, i prefer let artists choose to help me or not, i'm not gonna borring them.

Anyone who wants to try can, using the way he wants (modeling, remodeling or only reskining), i only look the result
Anyway, even if the result doesn't interrest me, that's not a useless works because orcish female model aren't profuse and it will be usefull for the community.

moreover, this model i haven't doesn't prevent me from making the map; in the worst case, i'll simply keep the orchuntress model and maybe someone will do the model i hope later.

 

[Horn]

No. They reproduce theirselves with spores.

YoshiRyu, there is nothing wrong with using male orcs as the queen. There are for example American civil war themed pieces.

Orcs are not Orks. You'e on a Warcraft site, so you're pretty stupid to even think of crossing that line.

I may still have this if you're interested.

 

[Mechanical Man]

But all 'female' orc models (including this) are just greenskinned elves. :/

 

[Horn]

This was not an Elf model.

 

[YoshiRyu]

thanks, but I prefer the orchuntress to your pikewomen for my queen
(but your model is very good, you should post it in hiveworkshop ressources)

 

[Kuhneghetz]

Here is another female orc model, though she looks more like a half-orc to me.
http://hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/models/1304/

 

[Palin_Twinblade]

Who knows she could be the half-orc from the book "The last Guardian" When she was one of Medivh's "friends" atleast his true self was a friend of her...not the Sargeras part.

 

[YoshiRyu]

thanks Dan van Ohllus but i already know this model
her skin is to polish and to flashy, and so she looks like a green human more than an orc for me. i still prefer the orc huntress.

 

[YoshiRyu]

Hello,
I've trying something and... i loose ^^

I've tryed to add the catapult's old skin's rune to the OrcSorcerer's model's alpha channel, but it has turn the model's team-colored parts into something more flashy :

I want to add this rune here on the skin:

(maybe a little more on the right)

That would add these details on the model:

Can someone explain me why this flashy unexpected result?
And can someone do it if i can't?

OrcSorcerer : http://www.hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/skins/765/

_
EDIT: i've corrected the glow on the OrcHuntress model and i've uploaded it here

 

[Horn]

Seems like more of the white from your texture is bleeding into the alpha than the original. Since you are actually editing the alpha (as you're making the rune shape use team colour), this is the problem.

Are you using Paintshop Pro?

Personally I think its a shit program for doing alpha, since you paint white, but then it collapses the layers and bleeds through like your skin. You'd have to spray over the white areas in black on the normal layer.

 

[YoshiRyu]

Are you using Paintshop Pro?

owned ^^'

EDIT: okay, i've tried to copy the old texture normal channel, and it corrects the flashy color on the original team colored parts, now, i will try to works on the rune.

 

[Horn]

There may be a proper way to do it, but I just used Fireworks instead.

My best solution was making the white black afterwards

 

[Kimbo]

I use gimp to alpha.

I add alpha in psp then open it in gimp so I suggest that if you don't choose fireworks.

 

[YoshiRyu]

is fireworks a software, or a tools in psp? ^^'

here is the result, that's not perfect, but that's mine ^^




If someone else want to make it more properly...
(with this rune or an other one, i juste want more teamcolor on the model ^^)

 

[Horn]

Fireworks is Macromedia's Adobe's graphic editor. No doubt it will become something less since they already have Photoshop.

 

[YoshiRyu]

I've cut the '(' to the left of the rune, and i've copy the black from the catapult texture, that's nicer:

 

[YoshiRyu]

Hello
even if i can't do something really good, i'm still working on this unit

I've modified the skin a little because it's not correctly attached to the model:
>

i've also edited a few the model to make an agressive staff and shoulder
&

and i've done the disable button from the enable one

[Oblivions_Wrath]

There are different game worlds, Orks in Warhammer reproduce that way, but Orcs in WC3 they don't.

 

[YoshiRyu]

... you're comming a little... late ^^'

 

[Ghost765]

... you're comming a little... late ^^'

lol u are coming in late...
but back to the request... the queen in chess is basically the most powerful piece right? the king however is weak but important. wut i would do is think about wut the strongest hero for orcs is, put it has the queen and so on. well thats just my opinion... AND ORCS,ORKS,AND ORCS ARE NOT THE SAME. ORCS IN WC3 ARE GREEN AND ARE BARBARIANS. ORKS IN WARHAMMER 40K ARE GREEN, THEIR HEADS ARE BIG THEY ARE SHORT, THEY CARRY LITTLE PISTOLS, THEY KNO HOW TO USE ROCKETS, AND GO ON WAAAAAGHS ALL THE TIME. ORCS IN LOTR ARE BLACK!! THEY ARE HUNCHBACKED EXCEPT FOR URUKS THEY TALK WIERD, THEY DONT SCREAM LIKE ORKS, THEY ARE NEVER GREEN LIKE ORCS AND ORKS, AND THEY DONT CARRY GUNS, AND ARE REALLY REALLY REALLY WEAK. ORCS FROM LOTR ARE MADE FROM MUDDY LOOKING PITS, ORKS ARE MADE FROM SPORES, AND ORCS FROM WC3 ARE MADE BY SEX. GET UR FACTS STRAIGHT!!

 

[Oblivions_Wrath]

Wow, just reading this, how the hell did my post get there, I posted it waaaay before that, on the first page.

 

[YoshiRyu]

AND ORCS,ORKS,AND ORCS ARE NOT THE SAME.

I was telling he was late (and so you) because the discussion about orc sexuallity is one month old...

ORKS IN WARHAMMER 40K

Warhammer is not warhammer 40k, there is also a simple heroic-fantasy warhammer universe without gun

ORCS IN LOTR ARE BLACK

In fact, there are dark green, but there isn't light enough to see it
LOTR was a book a long time before the movie...

now can you stop howling like that, that totally useless for my request...

 

[Ghost765]

i did give u some of my opinions on the queen... and i do kno about the warhammer thing... age of darkness or chaos something like that...there are orks in warhammer 40k 2 u kno... i wasnt howling... i was just... using the caps locks...

 

[YoshiRyu]

i did give u some of my opinions on the queen

It is the request section here, i ask for a model, not for opinions
It's my map, and it's my decision to use a female sorceress for the queen
