You can't change anymore right? People are already working on their skins...
Cuz mine turned out as a complete fail due to the face wrap.

Hehe, I cant make a straight line between his eyes...and I need one xD.

Other than that, model is awsome Dionesiist. :)
 
hum yeah :D, since no body have really started yet.. :D
i'm okay with this, and it will save everybody alot of time and pleasure, also it will reduce the flaming alot..

Actually people already started, and some seem to have sweated blood to put up with the skin, but did it successfully. Nevertheless it would be great if they said it's ok and agreed to adapt their skins to a better wrapping.

Also, remember that there may be some users who already started but didn't show any progress here.

Maybe there should be another model available with a better wrap. The ones who want to keep with their old one, may do so. How about it?

With every model I've skinned I've always had to re-do the face about 10 times. Just because it doesn't work out the first time doesn't mean the wrap is awful. If you want a line to be straight curve it on the unwrap so it ends up straight. Skinning faces is just problematic and difficult in general. This model has plenty of alpha channel options as well, so you won't be as limited as with other skins, and from what I can tell with the wrap so far it is more forgiving than most. If you want to complain about bad wraps try skinning the nether dragon. Now that has an effed up wrap.
 
67chrome, I see. I'll try harder.
The thing is that I've been 2 days trying to fix the NOSE of my skin, since it stretches upwards... I just thought that a model made specially for a skinning competition could have a nice wrapping so the entries could be better.
The model itself is totally flexible and cool. I'm totally agree with that.
Also, I don't know if it'd be good to 'unscrew' the face, since it would mess up with the other entries...

Btw, Dio, you need to update it anyways, cause the hole in the back which I told you before the contest began is still there... :/
 
Competitions are meant to be challenging anyways, otherwise what's the point? In my mind, it shouldn't just be a "luk guis Ihm koolar dan awl ofh yuu, I kans maek pefrekt sken", it should be something that you can learn from.

I didn't say it isn't. Let's not make any drama out of this.
It is fine. I will keep trying to fix the problems ive got here...

Okay then :p, But I am going to have a hell of a time, like 1 hour for me to make a straight line between his eyes xD.

I gues I'll start on it soon then

Stupid hole on the back, I'm certain I dealt with it!
EDIT: Can I join, considering it's my model? And A.R, holy fuck, is that Vincent's Chaos Form?

five points and a cookie to Dio, he got it xD

The wrap is hard, but not impossible. Easier than the Kobold's portrait, the Demon Hunter's face, the Morphed Demon Hunter, Sylvanas' face...
 
the satyr face is the hardes D: i think..

Edit = DUDE! i can't alpha out the crown thingy! D: why!? D: is my gimp broken?

nvm

Edit2 = K here's WIP, i'm going for an Angel of death :D :thumbs_up:

Just something to tease you all with...
Looks damn nice. But...why didn't you show it wrapped? :razz:

@HappyCockroach: Interesting concept, can't wait to see more! ^^

thanks! One problem is that all this alpha on the face will make holes in it. But I just need to do this, so I don't mind! xD
 
I think I will drop this contest :D again.. seriously, i'm only interrested in the Hive Texturing contest when I really want to make a skin for it, cause i have an epic idea..

the idea comes pretty fast normaly, but not the emotions to cheer me up :D

sorry :D

have fun guys, and I will kill each of you, if you don't upload your skin at the Hive after it's done >:D
