Texturing Competition #1 - Footman

Deathbringer · Feb 10, 2007

but but .jpg = loss of quality, which DEFIES PHYSICS, DATA CANNOT BE LOST!!

Therefor I consider JPGs evil..

Kimbo · Feb 11, 2007

Um, deathbringer, thats why you must compress them at high quality...

people wont manually dl and open their progs... =/

anyway.. keep the work up! i want to see some finished ones!

Deathbringer · Feb 11, 2007

Compress at high quality? If I had such a program I would but =(

HappyTauren · Feb 11, 2007

use Acdsee, it has some tools to chose your quality, as well as basic operations like crop, filters, hue changing... and photo album. overall it's nice one toolpack, but i dont know what's it's price and im sure you could find some nonoffical visual basic jpeg converter for free.. google is your friend

kebabmeat · Feb 11, 2007

Werewulf, I'm loving this one!!

BlackDoom · Feb 11, 2007

I decided to back off.

I tried to merge the old Footman with the skin of a Knight, yet the shield got me pretty bad - I hate that spike!
I tried to make a Royal Footman skin, using the "triumph" wallpaper - didn't work out.
I had in mind a Skeleton Footman, but I gave up. Perhaps next time...

And I lost my time with re-writing the documentation for W3IR v1.3.2 and with these:
BlackDoom MergePack v1.0

whewhe... yopu wanted to cheat XD, at least 75% of skin has to be from scratch...

THE_END · Feb 11, 2007

Tisk tisk, cheaters never win!

BlackDoom · Feb 11, 2007

Thanks for that label.
Check my other "stolen" designs. Perhaps you would like them. If that's what means to be a cheater... Thanks!

Designs to check: those in my signature (the URLs are scripted below) and please, do NOT forget these, on WC3Campaigns.net!

GoldenRam · Feb 12, 2007

Well here is GoldenRam's Submission.

BlackDoom · Feb 12, 2007

Good one!

You got me thinking about Morrowind! I do not imply nor suggest anything, yet that was the first thing it came to my mind, when I read "ebony".
Looks really nice - the only thing that represents a downside is the effects of the unwrap. Other than that... the same thing as everyone else: darker usually means lack of detail. Agree - W3 is about everything but details, yet... I don't know...
Nice piece, nevertheless!!! Congratulations!

GoldenRam · Feb 12, 2007

Ty, my avatar is from Oblivion, I used to play MW, if you have the time, check out the map or replay.

*Edit*
I may run into the red rep again... Cinematic tex preview likely belongs in the cinematic section, but I do not know how to delete attachments :/

BlackDoom · Feb 12, 2007

Try this.

I think you may have there some actions on attachments.

Well here is GoldenRam's Submission.

The Rules said:
To qualify for entry, you must post your .blp and an ingame screenshot.

Actually, you should post the .blp file, thanks ^^

You edit attachments by editing the post (with the attachments) and go into the "Manage Attachments". There you can upload new files or remove them. Or you can do it in your profile...

GoldenRam · Feb 12, 2007

Ty Black Doom, I will post the blp tomorrow then, my bad :/

*Edit* Here is the blp tex

Odin · Feb 13, 2007

I would like to enter this competition too if it isn't to late.
this is kinda my first skin sol it looks a little crappy, but i'l enter anyway

here's mine so far(WIP):

BlackDoom · Feb 13, 2007

Well... you could have spared us from the site of the "guts" mesh...
And I must say I wonder where is the handle of the sword...
If it's a WIP, I am curious how will it look - so post some screenshots later on, when you made some progress with it.

Only from this screenshot, I don't think I like it too much.

Edit:
It just occurred to me... Golden Ram, does you skin allow a player-color? If not, I do not think it's viable as skin, that in case 2 players meet. That could prove nasty, unless it's used in a campaign where only 1 player would have this footman.

Odin · Feb 13, 2007

of course it's a wip
and i will add more screenshots and updates later on

BlackDoom · Feb 13, 2007

Ok. The shield looks good, though! If you called it Reverant, could you add some algae on it? Perhaps some sea-rust effect would do. What do you think?

Odin · Feb 13, 2007

well it's supposed to be that kind of reverant which is in northered, but i'l see what i can do ^^

BlackDoom · Feb 13, 2007

Northrend? Icicles... sharp edges... Nice!
And... for those reverants - you add "ice" in their name, don't you?

Odin · Feb 13, 2007

yeah!
and, I coulden't find out how to add more attachments while editing a post
how do i do that?

BlackDoom · Feb 13, 2007

Hit "Edit", then "Go advanced". You have below a section concerning attachments.

Odin · Feb 13, 2007

okay thx
i've added an image of the profile

PrinceofIce · Feb 13, 2007

Ice I like It

well so far It looks better then I can do (no Im not exageratting).Any skin would make a map better they'd be like "Hey look this unit is different".

Anyways looking good so far i'd love to see updates asap.Thanks.

GoldenRam · Feb 13, 2007

I thought you did not need team color to qualify, I tried making the plume from the helmet follow the team color, but it just disappears from the mesh if I delete the texture in that area...

][-][ellsong · Feb 13, 2007

Fireeee!

Here is my first skin of a unit, but it is WIP.. I will finish it soon...
:thumbs_up:

:coolgrunt: :coolgrunt: :coolgrunt: :thumbs_up:

GoldenRam · Feb 13, 2007

Looking good Ell

THE_END · Feb 13, 2007

One question..why the green face?

Oh and Odin, very nice idea making the footie a reverant

kebabmeat · Feb 13, 2007

Hell soldier WIP

Ok here's my skin (BUT IT ISN'T FINISHED YET!)

THE_END · Feb 14, 2007

Mmm WIP

Here's a WIP of my skin
Posted another version of it before
I felt like doing it over entirely

Kimbo · Feb 14, 2007

o.0
i was just gonna say, looks nice but i really hope u shade its kebaby.

and the_end, looking nice, although the helmet being blue and all clashes abit.

Anyway, nice entries people, keep them going!

THE_END · Feb 14, 2007

Meh the helmet is the only thing left from the old skin, it will be changed shortly

GoldenRam · Feb 14, 2007

This contest is like 08's election, more and more people just keep on jumping in. It will be quite interesting to see all of the submissions side by side on feb 25th.

Xarwin · Feb 14, 2007

Most of the skins are looking very nice

.
Maybe I'm going to join the last days before the deadline with a skin,
depenting on my time

Deleted member 126647 · Feb 14, 2007

I actually really like the face of yours, END. The eyes under the helmet I mean. Looks very cool.

And the shield is pretty neat too, but try to incorporate the spike into the design a bit better.

gromhellscream666 · Feb 16, 2007

almost done just need some shading and adding parts to armor its still a wip

iwill add better screen shots when i get closer to finished

Kimbo · Feb 16, 2007

Hmm..looks good but still needs more shading, not detail shading, just define the shape shade..sorta thing.

Chaos

HappyTauren · Feb 19, 2007

WoW, nice sword, chaos!

And THE_END stop being boring, and skin something other than naga XD
anyway it looks kinda blurry or is it jpeg compression? But since it''s small footy who cares if it is blurry, and shield look niiiice and detailed

Tool For Hire · Feb 20, 2007

Ill Be Entering

Wip Of BLP Texture
And Model With NON TRANSPARENT OR BLENDING skin on it in WC3 model editor

camel's_hump · Feb 20, 2007

Nice sword, Chaos, but I don't like the other parts.

Tool you aren't going to get any votes by just recoloring the footman.

Tool For Hire · Feb 20, 2007

i kno dat...ull see its not guna be a suck ass....recolor.....and thats why its a WIP

camel's_hump · Feb 20, 2007

The fact remains that it is a recolor so therefore it is not a good skin.

Chaos · Feb 20, 2007
