TaurenSpiritWalker.blp

This bundle is marked as useful / simple. Simplicity is bliss, low effort and/or may contain minor bugs.
Okay, second try.
This one was done in Photoshop using vacum pad.
Everything except some minor details, the axe and the face is freehand.
(No filters. absolutely no filters ^^)
Tried to make this one more 3D than the troll skin.

What say ye? ^^

Just add in your comments and he'll touch it up as he feels its right, no need for you too edit it unless he asks for you're help.
Fine;

1. The overall color is too orange/light brown, it should be a little darker and browner to match a scout.
2. The axe is blue, which I think looks odd would look better in a dark metalic color (iron or maybe even steel).
3. There's random blue fur on his hands, due to some fur being left blue on the unwrap.
4. Why is the kettle (or whatever the spirit walker's weapon is) l to the original purple-like color?
5. Contains a noticeable amount of CnP (Copy and Paste).

Ratings:

Effort: 2/5

Appearance: 3/5

Comment(s): Sorry buddy, but you need to put more effort and freehand into skins.

Edit: Meh, attached images of what it could look like. I know I only recoloured it. It's also somewhat monotone, so I suggest you could make additional features to make is stand out.
Btw, deleted the edited unwrap.

Edit: I think it works now.

Okay, I see the criticism and I must say that I agree with lots of it
and am going to do a severe modification.
About the arms and legs, well I did modify those... maybe I should modify more, but I kinda like the way the legs are at least. I'll change 'em too if I find a good way to do so.
I mean, what's a freehand worth, if the update actually makes the skin look crappier than before?

Anyway, soon enough ther'll be a modified version of the Scout:
1) Darker + Browner, less orange.
2) Axe remade.
3) Kettle (or whatever it's called) remade.
4) The blue fur elliminated. (It doesn't affect the skin anyway... Just like the feathers - it's all alpha'd out.)

I can't promise getting rid of all the CnP yet though... Not sure I'm good enough.

Well the original idea is great imo, but it lacks on all the points already pointed out. I think the version Someguy19 showed looked awesome, and maybe you could add a bit of flame to his kettle with an attachment ability ingame, to let him see at night.
