Here is my first mostly freehand skin. I know I'm following the lines too much. This is for the texturing contest on The Helper. Ive done the face and cloth thing. Any ideas for the beard?

Unwrap is older than wrapped version, wrapped version has more face.

Looks great for a first skin!

 

[FireEffect]

Ive skinned before, never freehanded before though.

Pretty good man!!

The eyes could be bigger, and maybe a different color, like yellow, i think that is Rexxars eyecolor. The beard could be either brown or black, i think that could look good. You haven't made his clothes on chest yet right? An idea might be to use less armor and pretty much clothing.

 

[FireEffect]

He is going to be shirtless with a fur mantle, and i am making the beard short and black.

Pretty good.Keep up the good work and don't just do shitwork.Good luck!

 

[FireEffect]

Thanks, Im trying to shorthen the mustache but then he has a big hole. Last time i checked, ogres nor orcs have mustaches THAT big.

Anybody have ideas for the mustache?

(off topic)
What signature

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

You removed it.xD

 

[FireEffect]

Stay on topic please...

 

[Revolve]

I have no idea on what to do with mustache...
Try to skin it black, and look how it works out. You could possibly ask a modeller (unless you are 1) to remove it.

 

[FireEffect]

You can alpha it out easily, but then putting a mouth on the skin is nearly impossible. It stretches and is completely flat. And its a skinning competition so i cant edit the model.

 

[HeretoDLstuff]

Looks pretty good! I would give him a grayish-black beard with more braids.

 

[FireEffect]

UPDATE!!! woo

Good job with beard, it turned out nice and smooth.
If possible, try to remove a part of the mustache (alpha skin), and make the hair color "less clear" (sry for my bad english, i am 12).

 

[FireEffect]

I already removed alot of the mustache and you can already see under it, I made the beard longer, ill update once i get a little more done.

IM NOT DONE WITH THE LEGS Its a preview

 

[Xapphire]

Thats pretty cool, I wish I could do that, Id do all my villager models my self..

 

[Monopoly_Party]

I like the way you've executed the beard, looks professional to me. Nice alphaing there too. Also like how you've done the fur on his chest and the muscle definition there is okay.

 

[HeretoDLstuff]

The beard looks great! Allthough you havnt finished the legs, what is it suppose to look like?

 

[FireEffect]

I was trying to make him wear sandals but that didnt work, so im making his leather boots.

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

Sandals probably would look horrible the way that Blizzard mainly made feet and hands just lumps.

 

[FireEffect]

This skin is temporally delayed because i had no idea for the weapons atm, so I am making a different skin for the contest. Ill make a overall thread for all my skins soon.

Ae you all blind? This is a CnP!
Head is just cnped from rexar campaign texture, as well as chest, look down this:

 

[FireEffect]

Hey HT chest IS indeed freehand and i copied PART of the cloak helm thingy and added onto it!!!

EDIT - How the hell does the chest look cnp? The muscle structure on mine doesnt look human like the cinematic rexxars does.

 

[HappyTauren]

It looks very similiar to texture i posted above.

 

[FireEffect]

The rexxar texture has muscles going downward at the midpoint, as mine go upward (for some reason). And the rexxar that you posted has a clock thingy on it. My rexxar looks like plastic, the normal one does not.

 

[Revolve]

Hey HT, you could have said it in a nicer way, that's wasn't so nice. FireEffect, a little sad that you have copied, but i don't care, it looks good anyway. Plz post some more wips.

 

[Kuhneghetz]

You might wanna take a look at how Chriz. went far on the beard of his Mountain King skin.
I don think the big beard and the moustache fits for a Mok'Nathal. Try removing the moustache and redo the face a bit, but I think a goatee will do fine.
