General Frank:

Nah, this a way too simply and heavy.

 

[TheBlooddancer]

Neat.
You can always use more large and squishy orcs.

By the way, it would be better to use ing$ame textures.

 

[Chuchurute]

i think is possible make this using only ingame textures 3.5/5

 

[varsaigen]

... most of it is ingame. And there was a simular model that was just the grunt texture applied (simular texture, but different armour (this is cloth-ish))

The green skin and the leather is what I wanted when I edited the Beastmaster skin If I used the ugly grunt texture for this, the coat on his back would be messed up. That's why I stuck to editing the Beastmaster texture.

Edit: This is what it would look like. I ONLY selected the body, but appareatly, that includes the axes :/

 

[TheBlooddancer]

Can't you use different ingame-skins on one model?

 

[varsaigen]

... the campaign grunt's texture is too off to be used. I would have to rip apart the model just to wrap each part of the body D:

 

[D a w n]

you could use blademaster,ChaosWarlockGreen or maybe even foresttroll for the body´s texture.

 

[varsaigen]

none of those textures looked nearly as good as the one I edited. I really don't see why I should have to change the texture. It works and nothing else looked good :/

 

[Traxamillion]

I love this model, more orcs!

 

[shamanyouranus]

This is definitely possible with ingame textures.

I really don't see why I should have to change the texture.

..because it is useless and is only adding file size.

While this model is definitely useful and interesting, it is merely a recolor and CnP reskin, with some added and removed geosets. While this is definitely a decent model, it extremely simple. 3/5

 

[Callahan]

I think his legs are not the same green of the rest of the body.

 

[Dionesiist]

I don't think this will get approved. There's too little edited and even uses a custom texture for what.

 

[varsaigen]

since I don't know what texture you guys feel would look best, would any of you mind trying the textures and trying to get as close to the origional design (that I have for the body) that I have? Remember that if you wrap the body, the axes are also wrapped. D: So any different textures you use for the body, you will need to find a good part of the texture to use on the axes.

 

[Dionesiist]

Blademaster for the upper body, you could use peon for the bare section of the legs. And leave the axes using Beastmaster texture. Cape is pretty much unchanged from the BM, but if you really want the symbol I think there's some orc flag textures you could use. Yes, you will have to rip the model to pieces.

 

[Misha]

a helluva lot of geomerging here

you would need to pay atention to geoset anims too =3

 

[varsaigen]

the beastmaster only has half the upper body D: I would not know how to wrap that D:

Edit: These are the file sizes for the origional model,it's texture, and my model and texture. As you can see, (or should see) my texture is actually SMALLER than the origional. My model is only 10 KB larger than the origional as well.


Edit: I just realized that if I cut off the "Orc" out of "Orc Berserker", that the file size would drop and be almost exact to the base model's size.

 

[D a w n]

But: for the beastmaster model you don´t need a custom texture so your calculation is wrong in some way

 

[varsaigen]

well, these are just the file sizes that I noticed. They happened to be clumped together because of the way I had it sorted. It wasn't wrong, but those are the filesizes.

 

[Zerox]

Well I killed its file size so its 130 kb instead of 295 kb. Thats a whole 165kb smaller now. So this should make some of you complain less. var has now uploaded it for all you guys.

 

[varsaigen]

thanks Zerox! You've been a big help =3

 

[Dynasti]

At first it looks like a simple reskin. Only difference i see is the skin and the grunt face

 

[varsaigen]

and the shoulderpads. Those are from the Campaign Orc Grunt. =3 They suited the model

 

[Gyrosphinx]

Quite Great, 3.5/5, Could use some heavier shading

 

[varsaigen]

where does it require shading?

 

[balthazzar]

it does seem rather simplistic at first, but it suits the needs, its filesize is better than some of the more complicated ones, overall its useful and worthwhile, im not a modder so i cant really argue with all the in detail parts, but it looks perfectly fine to me 4/5

 

[khangaroo]

Pretty cool. From the screen shot it looks like it is pretty nice.

The only thing wrong with it is the shoulder plates they are a bit too large and personally i don't think berserkers would bother with armour and the horns are a bit too thin towards the ends. One last thing, change the positon of the horns as they may go through the shoulder plates at times.

Overall quite nice 3.75 out of 5

 

[varsaigen]

thanks for critique. I could also move the right horn tp (goes through armour) in so that it looks like a stub. Like it was chopped off. There were holes in the body (shoulder and back-neck area) But, Berserkers are meant to be large and powerful. And what is more menacing in armour than massive shoulder pads with spikes in them? =3

 

[JoonasKoske]

Sorry dont like it :/

 

[Danvari]

His head is too small...

 

[Soul-_-Hunter]

nice good work

[Kael Theron]

What a he...? Looks a bit strange. Maybe try to make his head more fitting to the rest

 

[varsaigen]

move his head more fitting than the rest? Oo I dunno what you mean.

Thanks Madcat! =D
