Great execution, though this amount of detail would definitely be lost in the game.

 

[Kazeon]

too much stone on this one, I suggest you to add some colour and more composition (just like crystal?) to that shield

 

[Heinvers]

Heinvers has a big smile on his face right now

Awesome as always man
This is perfect for a construct for the runic race

 

[7oda]

YOU are an awesome skin maker all your skins are really really really very awesome, i cant wait for the buildings.

 

[Solu9]

Hm yeah. This is not as good as the others you made. It looks a bit confusing, like most of it swirls together.

 

[animewidri2]

This its such an epic skin! <3
5/5

 

[Footman16]

Yeah, I see what people are saying and I'll throw in my two cents, it needs more variation, the stone parts are too similar. Like Dalvengyr said some crystals like the Runic Thane would be good. Perhaps just a bit more colour variation could work? I don't know.

 

[knight26]

I got to say, it's not as impressive as the rest of the group. Don't misunderstand, it's fairly better than most skins here on THW, but on your criteria, it's not that good. It feels as if it's wrapped in plastic, perhaps overuse of metal/stone theme .
Edit: to make it clear, the 'skirt' thing looks fine, the shield over-bright, and the head looks like it's wrapped in plastic. :3

 

[Misha]

Runic ..what? o.o i actually might struggle to pronounce that

although..would adding a few more colors be possible, texture is cool and all, but i fear that it kinda gets 'lost' in the overall gray-ness of the model

EDIT: well.. except the brown coat part..

EDIT2: did you try a bit of rust..?

 

[Daenar7]

Runic ..what? o.o i actually might struggle to pronounce that

Einherjar were fallen warriors in the Nordic mythology.


Btw, i know this skin sucks a little, i will try to update it, maybe those metal tusks on the shield could be real bone tusks.

 

[Heinvers]

maybe those metal tusks on the shield could be real bone tusks.

Yes, it would give it the much needed diversity that now it lacks.

 

[knight26]

Btw, i know this skin sucks a little, i will try to update it, maybe those metal tusks on the shield could be real bone tusks.

Yes that would!
Also if you can, you should consider making the bone tusks wrapped around the shield in leather 'rope' instead of the metal parts.
As Misha and Heinvers said, the quality is lost in the grey color overuse, some diversity(like leather, rust, holes, etc) would be great.

I see.. cool

i think a bit of a 'bonemold' might be a cool idea (bonemold is an armor from the elder scrolls games) and also lill rust

 

[Footman16]

Nah, I think bonemold is too yellow, an ivory would look better.

 

[Misha]

Nah, I think bonemold is too yellow, an ivory would look better.

i did mean it more as 'something molded outta ivory bone-matter', and not really an elder scrolls one

 

[Footman16]

Hmmm, I'm not a fan of the rust, the two crystals looks good, so I'd remove the rust and add crystals to the helmet.

 

[Heinvers]

Hmmm, I'm not a fan of the rust, the two crystals looks good, so I'd remove the rust and add crystals to the helmet.

I have to agree here.

 

[knight26]

Yes, everything but the rust worked pretty well Just as the two above me suggested, I'd also consider removing the rust.
Oh and the bone tusks worked wonder!

 

[-Grendel]

That big-ass mammoth tusks look perfect, they wrap so well with the shield. you sir are very creative.

 

[Zed]

Nice Skin

 

[sonofjay]

Why do you keep making skin on my favorite War3 characters?! You're awesome.

 

[Heinvers]

Wayyy better without the rust and now it has the much needed details like those tusks, crystals and that bond on his shield.

 

[Misha]

I gotta admit, the texture does look better without the rust oO

 

[Splub]

I always love seeing a revenant skin! Good work!

 

[Kyrbi0]

I love you... I love (obscure) mythological references, but I'm always concerned about being too obscure & picking something "perfect" that no one recognizes ("seneschal", "draugr", etc). You're showing me that the word "Einherjar" might be common enough to be used.

Or at least, you're pushing the envelope & that helps me too.

Anyway, like usual, excellent work. Seriously, this race is turning out to be one of the coolest ideas I've seen, & really makes me believe in Skinning again (I'll be honest, I've pretty much been "eh" to Texturing for a long time).

Not really an artist, so all I can say is 'Lookin' good'... Although your screenshot shows an awful lot of metal without much relief. What if that brown-stuff was wrapped around the front as well?

 

[InfernalTater]

How did I miss this? I love it!

5/5.

 

[Loken Ironwolf]

Awesome skin, i really like the runic army. But i have a little conundrum. Does anyone know any suitable buildings in the hive to fit the runic army?
