Paired Modeling/Texturing Contest #1 - Warcraft Hero

[PROXY]

Face looks suspiciously stolen. No, looks good, though, it remembers me a bit too much of arthas

 

[General Frank]

It is Arthas, but that is just a WIP.

 

[Deolrin]

Will the contest end in 2 days, or in a week?

General Frank, I can't comment too much since it's such an early WIP. Shoulderpads look nice as always though.

 

[Mr. Bob]

If we still only have 1 entry in 2 days, we are going to have to extend it again... I would assume...

 

[anarchianbedlam]

What the hell happened to all the people who said "oh ya, we only need 3-4 more days... 6 days ago?

We should just create a rule, that if contest participants request an extension, and do not meet it, they get -20 neg-rep.

[Lich Prince]

In the awesome words of Rising_Dusk:

Can we just declare this contest over, give Dio an award for actually finishing, and be done with it?

In this case Debode and l0w_kwaliti.

 

[Deleted member 157129]

Well, ikillforeyou and I will throw in an effort to finish something, but it might require an extension.

 

[Dentothor]

Well, ikillforeyou and I will throw in an effort to finish something, but it might require an extension.

facepalm. no more extensions. you guys have had like 2 extra weeks.

 

[Deleted member 157129]

It wasn't my idea to come here and ask for an extension, I basically just joined the contest to try and make it a contest rather than whatever you'd call this. I heard there was only one entry. We might finish by Sunday, we might not (which would be my fault). Just saying that it might require an extension. I don't want to promise anything.

So to put it short, I'm not asking for an extension, I'm offering to participate, and if there will be an extension either way, we will participate. Don't make an extension just for us.

 

[Just_Spectating]

i was on the waiting list till 2 days ago so basically, this extension is my only time on this heh

 

[anarchianbedlam]

You're right.... this really isnt a contest anymore. Seriously, if we cant get 2 more entries by the deadline, we might as well close this thing and just give debode/l0w_kwaliti a partial rep prize.

I guess it just isnt a feasible contest idea. mathematics say that if 2 people work on the same project, that it should be done in a fraction of the original time it took 1 person to finish. not a multiple.

ahhaaha

Just goes to show the mentality of internet cooperation

 

[shamanyouranus]

In my honest opinion, if more entries do not come in, Debode and low should win by default and receive the award and full rep prize. No reason for them to be stripped of their rightful prize just because they had no competition.
Anarchian, we all knew from the start that this would take much longer than a normal contest. Coordination of two separate but interdependent tasks should and does take much longer.

 

[Just_Spectating]

they should also recieve second and third place Prizes

And just call it the,
Complete And total Domination Award
CTD Award

 

[Mr. Bob]

So, after the two days if we don't have another entry, we scrap it and move on? Sounds fine to me.

 

[Just_Spectating]

oh don't worry

our team is brewing quickly
i guarantee

 

[skrab]

What the hell happened to all the people who said "oh ya, we only need 3-4 more days... 6 days ago?

Well, I finished my part in 3 days but I didn't expect that I will remain without a partner.

 

[Deolrin]

The latest extension was supposed to be two weeks anyways, so why not give everyone another week? It's obvious that many people are close to finishing anyways.

 

[anarchianbedlam]

/sigh

You're right, sorry. I guess i pendulum-ed from last time.

For the next contest we should have some sort of clarifying criteria like

"the contest will end when these 2 conditions are met
* deadline met
* 3 finished submissions minimum."

or something.

that way we wouldn't have to keep asking for extensions and yelling at eachother or making long posts about what "should or should not" be done.

 

[PROXY]

Sorry, I wasn't able to future out the problem I have. I thought to add the new animations would only take a small amount of time, but then a bug somehow appeared, so I wasn't able to finish it in three days.

 

[Direfury]

Let it be known that when this contest has come to an end, I shall destroy you all. Except JS, since he helped.

 

[Sellenisko]

I think some people will finish in deadine. i just hope we will be with Zadelim among them. And i aslo hope all of the models fro the contest wil be finsihed, these models are just awesome. Everyone.

And well this is the first paired modeling contest, iam sure on the another one it will be much better with timing and will be far less problems like with more and more extensions etc. But anyway, iam glad for the extensions.

 

[HappyCockroach]

I'm giving you guys a little wip...
im making the walk animation right now (gotta tweak it a lot still, this is just a pose, weaponless)
at the right it's the stand pose

 

[Stanakin]

That looks really awesome, happycockroach.

 

[Deolrin]

HappyCockroach, that's pretty damn sweet. Can we see the face?

 

[zadelim]

My skin is nearly finish before the deadline. The animation things maybe failed. Then there will have 2 entries here.

 

[PROXY]

The model is finished, sadly, I wasn't able to future out the problem with the animation transfers, and there is no time for a full, new rigg.
Here are some pics:

BackView

SideView

FrontView

 

[General Frank]

Update:

M0rbid started the skin and will be done with it tomorrow.

 

[skrab]

Finally I found another partner. Its viiva.

And here is the animation preview:

Stand-1, Stand-2, Stand-3, Walk, Stand Ready, Attack, Spell, Death and Dissipate.

 

[HappyCockroach]

Thanks guys, blame the awesomeness on my buddy's texturing skills.
And nice wip, GF
@skrab those anims are pretty cool

HappyCockroach, that's pretty damn sweet. Can we see the face?

She isn't comfortable about showing her face, but...

 

[zadelim]

Finished head textures.

 

[Goolygot]

Skrap
The flail don't look realistic in the walk animation. Else good animations.

 

[Just_Spectating]

agreed

the attack animation could have more shoulder into it as well

take a look at the ogre's attack 1 animation ogre_hurrhurr it uses it's shoulders to force it's maul into it's enemy

 

[Deolrin]

zadelim, the head looks rather... Bad. Are all those armor pieces and the cloth your own work, or did you simply not work on them yet? They look A LOT better than the head.

 

[Just_Spectating]

oddly peculiar

Anyway
I'll W.I.P. of our texture
dunno if revellion wants to post a W.I.P. of the model yet

 

[ikillforeyou]

1 hour's work, troll headhunter's head, will be modified, everything else is scratch made.

Ok, now im confused. Revellion kept telling us that he was obviously the skinner on his team. Why he he making a model now? I thought he said that "he was done with his work weeks ago".

 

[Mr. Bob]

K, the pink balloons are finished!

This is the "Bandit Berserker." Because, as well all know, the bandits need some love. :3

Have fun. Most of the credit goes to Stanakin for working his ass off to get this awesome texture.

 

[zadelim]

I confirm those armor piece is my work used a lot of time to make. The head now is need more work not enough shading.

everytjing looks great, but I think you should create a real stand ready animation. Oh and personally I dislike your helmet concept, because the face is the part of the wc3 heroes that makes them unique(examples: demonhunter, dreadlord, lich)

 

[kola]

hmm, this helmet is actually making it unique. But i think u should add a bit more highlights on the helmet.

 

[General Frank]

The Human Executioner is here!

M0rbid's and mine final entry to this contest:

The Human Executioner!

Mesh is party scratch, partly edited. Use a meld of Blade Master and Beast Master animations.

The package contains TC and non-Tc version of the skins and models.

Have fun with the model!

 

[PROXY]

Looks awsome, though, his eyes are freaking the shit out of me and that blue exuse me, tc pants and arms don't look that good actually. as for our model, Dark didn't made any respone to me, if he doesn't give me the skin, we won't enter, what won't be a problem anyway, since there are three entries. Just get over with this contest

 

[Goolygot]

General Frank post:
That team color didn't look good. And the axes looks very weak when you got those holes in it. And he got crazy eyes. The rest looks very good.

 

[kola]

oh shit. he looks badass. is it a big axe that he got in the back?

 

[M0rbid]

General Frank post:

Feel free to use the Version without the Teamcolour, that is included in the ZIP file aswell.

Show weak Gimli

That does count as an answer on you second point (the axe).
Weak Gimli is weak?


@kola, yes it is!

 

[D a w n]

I think the tc parts would look better, if you would just make it darker in general.

 

[viiva]

I spent the whole day to work on the texture but I don't think I will be able to finish
Making a texture in 1 day is just too much for me guys

 

[DarkKnight]

If you'd reskin the Dwarf's face, you could make it into a lion-head =D.

Also, the eyes are pointing away from eachother... Other than that: Nice =D.
