THE_END: It looks good, I like this alot. The armor is very suspicious, I will be looking into armors from WoW. Expect this to be under my heavy criticism very soon.

 

[Zeverens]

Pretty cool actually. I think you should have changed the face though.
Rating: 4/5 - Me liky.
+Rep: Yes.
(Hihi, My rating system is solid.. Not )
Edit: I took a look at the model in game. It's rather awsome how you made the unwrap look so good. But is there no team color? If not, I'll stick to my 4/5 rating. But if so, 5/5.

 

[Coinblin]

Haha, thank you. Er, you may not have noticed but I did add a bandaid to the nose, so thats sort of a face edit. I see what you mean by "change the face", but I'm not sure if it needs it. We'll see.

 

[Zeverens]

I just think you should have redone the face completly. But it still looks nice.

 

[i_mOck_death]

i think you could've changed the shield to look better with the skin
its to wooden for a person in full armor
unlike its original skin where he was ragged and his wooden shield fitted in with the skin just fine

 

[AIagremm]

Not bad...

 

[matmat01]

pretty useful. maybe you can make the shield into metal to fit the armor. And the helmet. I don't think it matches the armor's color. Closely near but it's too shiny. 4/5

 

[FrIkY]

Hmm... very suspicious... Is the whole armor freehand?

 

[Coinblin]

Yeah, no cnp.

 

[Misha]

it pretty much looks like CnP to me =/

i can sniff it ^vv^

 

[Coinblin]

Well, Its not. And I'm not lying, so I'll take it as a compliment that this skin is so good that it looks like blizzard quality

 

[FrIkY]

Hm... it still looks suspicious... you worked on 256x256?

 

[Leeroy]

I think I already seen it somewhere...let me check...


EDIT: I can't remember atm. But I didn't say it is CnP.

 

[Misha]

Well, Its not. And I'm not lying, so I'll take it as a compliment that this skin is so good that it looks like blizzard quality

it's beyond blizzard quality... and that makes me suspitious ^.^

 

[Dionesiist]

It's actually just about WoW quality. And very similar to an armour I've seen.

 

[AIagremm]

It looks normal on the screenshot
But if a pro says so...

 

[Grog50]

If this is freehand then it is quite exceptional for a first skin and approvable IMO. If it is Cnp then you might as well tell us because it will be found if it is. BUT if it is your artwork, then great job!

 

[Coinblin]

Whoa, thanks! Well, any changes made were freehand (unless using dodge and burn tools aren't freehand, because they were involved to a degree), this includes the armor, cloth, shield, and any other edits (although the cloth could be better, in my opinion). This means no cnp from wc3, WoW, or any other game or any other kind of THING. Thanks for the comments guys, and they'll be more to come.

 

[Coinblin]

Er, and remember, this is my first UPLOADED skin, meaning I have been practicing for a long time, close to half a year.

Edit: Oops, double posts, will NOT happen again.

 

[Grog50]

You will get a lot of shit for using dodge and burn here. I use em all the time though lol. also if you can crank out another skin with similar style, it should ease the Cnp accusations.

 

[SILLYbear]

Looks more like a guy breaking out of an asylum than an armored bandit.

 

[ike_ike]

I don't think it's CnP. It's a great first skin, but it doesn't look to be of WoW quality. The belt and so forth have rather odd shading, which seems to go against that whole WoW CnP theory.

You just may be the second or so person to have their first skin approved >_>

 

[Misha]

wll... it is exeptionally well done 8)

maybe it will be aproved.

 

[Zeverens]

You just may be the second or so person to have their first skin approved >_>

Mohaha! My first skin was aproved! But i'v deleted it now though. Like the other skins i made. Cause they suuuuucked. >.<

 

[Coinblin]

Okay, anyone have any suggestions on how else I can improve it? I redid the shield, but... hows it looking from your points of view?

 

[Grog50]

Change the face. If you want to make a skin truly original, change the face. It will help it so much.

 

[Misha]

agree.. and the shield needs less wood, actually no wood at all.

 

[SILLYbear]

Make the armor less white, or metallic, so he doesn't look like an asylum escapee...

 

[~Void~]

This looks really nice.

you mean your first real skin

 

[Coinblin]

I'll refine the shield a bit more, but I do want SOME wood on it, so it can kind of match with the wood on the axe. However, I don't want to change the face because it looks likes what I originally had in mind when I made this skin (not that I can't), and I can't imagine it looking any better with a different face than the one it has now :/ After all, its the same person, just with different armor.

 

[Vincent]

Seems like an ok model, the only thing i disapprove is the face and the armor needs a little more detail

 

[Coinblin]

Well, I've been told the quality of the armor is very good by numerous people. And this is a skin.

 

[Chaarn]

Wow! All I can say:it is simply awesome.
Rating: 5/5 +rep

 

[madcat2]

You know this reminds me of the summon from bards tale.

Whats got me is that this skin is great quality on the armor tidbits but like the wood I guess would be the axe's wood and the belts are unshaded and highlighted like the rest of the skin. I'm, not calling you a copy and pastier it just really throws me off because I always read the texture for the information I need and its not normally that I can see some one being able to switch there style.

Edit: I went and read this skin closer as a favor for a friend and I can tell you exactly if it has cnp or not. but it'd probably be more fun if you guys find out by you're selves.

 

[Leeroy]

madcat2 sounds it is really CnP. This joke scares me :O

 

[Valor567]

I like it, but you should make the shield out of Metal, the Merc is in full plate armor with a wooden shield, everything else looks nice, 4/5.

 

[qqluqq]

no team colour face,shield and axe still same
3/5

 

[Lambsauce]

4/5 woulda been 5/5 if like many people said, You changed the sheild/head although i realy do like this Good work mate

 

[aimspeed]

Pretty cool, but i think you should change the axe to f.eks. a sword which mach more to the armor 4/5

 

[Tha_Wc3_Map_Maker]

not bad 4/5, i dont think the chest fits in :/

 

[AbstractCreativity]

WoW armor?

+ attached thumbnail. (Screenshot from www.thottbot.com)

WoW armor? Sure looks like it.
But it DOESN'T have to mean Coinblin CnPed. He could have been inspired by, or tried to make it look like the Knight's Breastplate in WoW... I do that all the time! :]
I don't think it's CnP, so great skin! 4/5
Keep up the good work and you'll reach your...ehhh... Current goal in no time.

 

[Panda]

Looks very good.

 

[War_Golum]

well done

 

[Alfagar]

Nice

 

[barba_fire]

the mercenary looks a knight,but its good.
