[THE_END]

Alright people, LET'S SEE THOSE SKINS!

 

[Denu]

AWSOME!!! A themed contest again and a cool one at that. I might not be able to enter though too much stupid work. But ideas are starting to come. I always wanted to make a zombie into frankenstein. OR! Just had another idea. Vampire Kael.

Edit: Pumpkin Panda Head!

 

[Pyritie]

Not another kael reskin!

 

[Dionesiist]

Woohooh, another competition for me to lose!

 

[FireEffect]

Well never entered a hive contest and im not expecting to win. But im in, i need ideas hmm...

 

[Pyritie]

Make a chocobo skin.

 

[DesKaladA]

i gess i'll try

 

[FireEffect]

Chocobos arent halloween lol. And ive tried to make the dragonhawk a chocobo it didnt work.

 

[HyperActive]

Someone could make a reskin of the Death Knight making him into the Headless Horceman (or the pumpkin-head horseman).

Edit: This is not a request.
PS - Hopping to see that Denu' panda!

 

[FireEffect]

Dont post requests in the contest...requests go in the requests section.

ALSO - What is considered halloween? yeah zombies and undead but like what else? Demons? Does it have to be horror?

 

[HyperActive]

You've misunderstood me. It's not a request, more like a... inspiration?

 

[FireEffect]

Can someone make a reskin of the Death Knight making him into the Headless Horceman (or the pumpkin-head horseman)?

Yeah you said "Can somebody make..." thats a request.

 

[Elenai]

[FireEffect]

[DesKaladA]

[FireEffect]

[camel's_hump]

Wayyy too blurry FireEffect.

 

[FireEffect]

What are you talking about? I never blurred it. I sharpened it to make the contrast better. Its the wrap the unwrap looks fine.

EDIT - Ah i sharpend it even more it looks good now, ill post the update when i get his human arm done.

EDIT - Arm is in very early wip so im not showing wrapped yet

[Xatoga]

Heh, I'm giving a go at this, since I found a rather simple thing to make. It's going to be the stereotypical evil clown. I was gonna do a giant pumpkin monster using the Goblin Shredder but I don't have the mpq on this computer and I cant find the model or skin on it anywheres either.

 

[FireEffect]

Fix teeth so they line up with the mouth. Needs more shading. And what are you doing with the branches?

 

[donut3.5]

Xatoga, its in the War3.mpq
Units\Creeps\IronGolem\IronGolem.blp
--donut3.5--

 

[Xatoga]

I know it is, I don't have the mpq on my comp, which I already stated

I figure the branches will become his hair.

 

[Just_Spectating]

funny clown, treants have no feet. o wait, they do!


idk if i should join, im already in the modeling one. but i always wanted to join a texturing contest

 

[Technomancer]

I had a decent idea for a skin, but the original skin is 256 in one dimension and 512 in the other, which means to fit the competitions requirements I'd have to resize it to half, which would give some pretty lossy quality. Ah well :/

 

[thisruoy]

This Halloween, the hunted will become the hunter
Is it possible for making multiple skins on really small monsters?
Im gonna make all the critters evil and stuff

Im pretty sure it means default size. SO i would think 256x512 is allowed.

EDIT - Arms WIP need to fix shading and human skin.

[DesKaladA]

Heres mine
Zomby Kidz

 

[frostwhisper]

Needs a lot more work imo...

 

[FireEffect]

Show unwrap. Needs major shading. Needs a base concept rather than random lines. Too bright.

 

[camel's_hump]

FireEffect you can barely even see the hair/fur from extremely close up. It's warcraft, exaggerate.

Also when I say it is blurry it has nothing to do with you using the blur tool on it, it just means it's blurry.

 

[HeretoDLstuff]

Im makeing a devil sheep....How original..>.>

 

[Just_Spectating]

i think i might make Jason.

 

[DesKaladA]

1. there is a mathamatical order to this

 

[Chaos Overlord]

Fire I think the werewolf part of it is really sweet, but I do not know if havin it a mid-transformation thing is a such a good idea... I know if you made it like a werewolf with its Human clothes still on, it would be sweet, but having one arm human, and its head and the other arm werwolf is just kinda strange. I dont want to say I am joining this because I am not good at following through but I want to see Mannoroth go trick-or-treating dressed up as a mutant frog. That would be the best. Or maybe the acolyte into a ghost? No... too easy, it would be a major white out... idk.

 

[HeretoDLstuff]

Huh??? I didnt quite get your post, DesKaladA..

My reason for making it half human is because of body structure. SO i have to add something human about it so its not a fat werewolf.

 

[Chaos Overlord]

You are right probably, I have not ever used the Shaman model for anything other than my secondary targets in melee games when I am focusing fire. But yeah, I guess your right, but lol maybe you could say the werewolf just ate... (;..

 

[FireEffect]

Lol im reading tutorials on how to make a arm. Mine seem to suck. Too many face tuts.

 

[Chaos Overlord]

Alright I was just looking at the shaman and I am not understanding what part of it would be fat. Shamans are orcs and they have the same build as humans pretty much, so why would it be fat? The clothes you could tattery rags, but yeah your decision, and either way I want to see this done.

 

[thisruoy]

shamans are fat because they eat a lot... dont you people understand?

 

[frostwhisper]

Will you quit the spam thisruoy? Thank you.

 

[Mechmap]

I'll try to make a descent skin for this contest but we'll see if it gets good

Edit: OK, here is my Skeleton Costume but it still needs much work...

 

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

Look at some skeletons (as in, medical reconstruction of a human skeleton) and you'll notice it doesn't look anything like that.

 

[THE_END]

Ok the zombie kid skins needs work
As well as that "skeleton costume"
Sure you have a good start, but it needs more color variation, more realistic bones, etc.

 

[Technomancer]

I'm going to enter this, and just hope the skin will be accepted despite its dimensions. I'll post it up when it's done, although I may give you a WiP if it's needed.

 

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

I'm sure the skin will be accepted. Larger skins, as long as they retain the original skin's size don't pose a problem.
