Skin - Dead Ancient Protector

[Sephalo]

Hey there.

I'm currently in need of a fallen Ancient Protector skin so I can apply it to the purpleish Corrupted Ancient Protector. It's basically a dead ancient protector. Don't mind if it's a recolour or something, as long as it looks like a dead ancient.
I was wondering if someone here would like to give this a go. I never found this on THW before but I think it's really useful for other people aswel.
The reason I need this is for the Oakwood Forest.

Here are a few reference pictures:

Apperantly I could only find one picture on google... Well hope you know what I mean

Yeah I know that one. But the problem is that the filesize is really big and it's not the Ancient Protector

you can reduce file size by compressing the skin using http://www.wc3c.net/showthread.php?t=107500

and I don't think that it will make a big difference if it's this or that kind of ancient but if you really want it to be a protector you will have to draw it yourself

Well I know I'm asking quite alot and I know I am quite picky.
But well. I'm not forcing people to do this, if people like doing this then why not. Maybe people never thought of this and would like to give it a shot. And if they don't, then they can just ignore this thread

I don't want to promise you anything, I just can't do that, but:
Up from coming friday I have a small amount of freetime and I currently only have to do two maps and two to 5 skins to do

So I might can give it a try if u find noone else doing it and you don't expect tooo much!

 

[Sephalo]

Oh thats really cool!
Well only if you feel like it ofc!

 

[M0rbid]

I'll try my very best, but I assumed that I failed in an exam today and will have to redo it, so I won't have time to put tooo much effort into it, but I'll give it a try for sure!

 

[Nudl9]

Deadwood is awesome.

 

[Sephalo]

Sorry, really late reaction.
Aww you failed your exam? That's a pity, I'm still preparing for mine. They're comming soon and man I gotta get rid of my school
Anyways, if you don't feel like this anymore just say so because I know in what kind of stuff you're now

 

[M0rbid]

Ham, no, I just had another problem with my working computer and totally forgot to tell you about it, I'm currently getting used to the new one, fortunatelly, I'll be able to start skinning in one to two days!

 

[M0rbid]

Just want to give you some informations about the progress: Because my old computer crashed, I now restart the skin together with Kazzo, so please be patient.
I haven't forgotten you

this model comes from HON? heroes of newerth DEAD WOOD?

 

[Sephalo]

Oke great!
tnx

 

[Sephalo]

Hey M0rbid.
Are you still working on it or have you forgotten about it?
Just tell me if you don't like the request hehe, just bumping this up a bit.

 

[M0rbid]

Nono, I haven't forgotten about it, I was on vacation, didn't you get my PM?
I'll send you a preview in the next few days

 

[Sephalo]

Oh oke cool.
No didnt get your PM.
But great to hear you're still working on it!

 

[M0rbid]

I'm sorry for the long time it takes, but it's for me a very hard request and I want to get a hopefully high quality result, so it takes me some work.
Btw, do you need teamcolour?

No problem man, I'm already glad you're willing to help.
Uhmz, no I don't need it to have teamcolour.

 

[M0rbid]

Ok, I promised you a WiP and here we go.
I'll take a look for the exact colour later, first finsih the whole freehand work.
Hope you like it so far

 

[D a w n]

show the texture aswell please :>

 

[M0rbid]

Done


EDIT: And yes, what kinda eyes to you wish?

EDIT2: 400th post, yeaaaah

 

[Sephalo]

Looks really cool man!
And for eyes hmm.. What about black eyes?

 

[M0rbid]

I'm not sure where the part is that retextures the eyes, I think it's a kind of glow, so I have to search for it, if anyone knows and tells me, I would be very happy

 

[karland90]

if you open the model in magos' then you can choose texture editor. from that new window you can see all the textures the model uses. when you double click on the texture, then a new window ill open with the texture.

but im sure you already know this and im making a joke out of myself xD

 

[Sephalo]

Well if its a big problem you can just let the eyes stay like they are.

 

[M0rbid]

I don't know yet, I'll work the rest of the skin out first and then I'll try the eyes.
To be honest, I'm to lazy to search for it now
Even to lazy to search in magos

Haha sure thing

 

[M0rbid]

Finally it is released, I'm sorry, that you had to wait such a long time. But I hope that this will be what you was looking for. Feel free to comment and mention the things you dislike I'll give my best to change those things
I might will update it later on my own, in case, I would send you a PM, so you can be sure to always have the best quality of the skin
I'll take a closer look at the eyes later

Looks really cool M0rbid! Will deffo use it.
The only things that would make it slightly better would be;
1) Making a littlebit more darker
2) Mean eyes Red blue whatever. He's supposed to be kinda evil

Even if that won't work it's still a great skin and I will use it for sure.
thanks!

 

[M0rbid]

Yeah, give me a few minutes, I'll look for the eyes, it will be a second skin i guess

Do you have gimp?
or photoshop?

 

[Sephalo]

Nope,
I only have paint and irfanview
