Texturing Competition #6 - Northrend/Icecrown

[Kaitech[SanD]]

Heck, why not? I like pentagrams anyway

BTW, that aint my finished product.

 

[madcat2]

Ah. I guess i'll go ahead and show another wip of mine.

Working on his armor at the moment.

 

[modler2]

just a little wip

 

[Kaitech[SanD]]

From now on can we attach images taken in Warcraft 3 Viewer? Aswell as wraps, so we know what we're up against

 

[modler2]

yea i'd say thats fine and im also chaging my idea from blademaster to frost lich.

ps: im going to alpha map it and also add team color when im finished.

 

[Kaitech[SanD]]

Don't you think Lich is icy enough? :S

Anyways, here's more progress!

 

[modler2]

lol course not

 

[modler2]

sry for double post but here, if no one has nay sugestions then im done ^^

can somone help me, the skins not working xD how can i fix that?

 

[madcat2]

I Don't see much shading but eh thats just me.

 

[donut3.5]

Terrible color coordination, and it just looks blue, not icy.
--donut3.5--

 

[madcat2]

Heres another wip. I've been working on his helmet still needs shading and etc and clean up but its coming along.

 

[Denu]

Pentagrams arent very original and are rather cliche. Many new skinners for whatever reason think demonic or evil skins need pentagrams. Pentagrams always look out of place on skins and turn out looking somewhat ugly.

 

[THE_END]

mad that looks great so far
Love that armor you put on him
And yes Denu..you are right

 

[madcat2]

. What i did for his shoulder plates is made them look more like part of a tree since furbolgs perfer wooden and leaf type armor useally. That and i don't want to keep him to just ice crystal armor he needs some variation some what.

 

[THE_END]

EHh not sure I like how that ice armor is coming out
Looks more..eh watery
I would make it a grayish blue just flat plate, make it look all icey an' such

 

[madcat2]

The green armor, blue or both?

Because i'm, really not liking the green now that i had time to review it..

 

[THE_END]

Yea no green
DO NOT GO GREEN
Not trying to save the environment here
Trying to make a kickass Northrend Furlbog sir!

I would suggest, if going Scourge/Death Knight-ish way
Purples, dark blues, etc

For a Northrend creep
Light grayish blues, grays, and maybe some dark blues as well

And do NOT use that water filter as a way to make that icey armor..no no

 

[madcat2]

Whats a water filter? i've been using the paint brush tool in gimp the whole time.

 

[THE_END]

Oh...well
WOOPSIE
Thought you were using Photoshop
Anyways, just try to make the ice more..icey
Right now it just looks like blue
Start out with light gray on the bottom
And then kinda overlay a light almost white blue over that


Here, I found an old shot of a skin I made AWHILE ago for a Northbound Elves skin pack I was working on..hmm that never happened..oh well
Just look at the ice I made on the shoulder spike things..

 

[madcat2]

Oh...well
WOOPSIE

Wish i had photoshop because the new version of gimp keeps getting worse i liked the older ones....

Ok I'll keep working on the armor.

 

[THE_END]

Check my post above for an ice idea I have/had

 

[madcat2]

Cool, I see what you did. you did depth with just somewhat of shading to give the affect in the middle that its not hollow along with cracks and chips and the color and light effect to make it seem like its see through ice but the other colors make it seem like its too thick to see all the way through.

..uhh yes that exactly
Though I may be thoroughly confused about what you just said..yes

 

[madcat2]

Yeah sorry about that... i pushed submit before i had time to correct my spelling and grammar.

 

[THE_END]

Whatever, just update that ice armor sir!

 

[madcat2]

Alright Sire.(15 limit!)

 

[INF3RNO]

i just got a good idea im going to make a tuskarr out of the.... mountain king lol =p

kk hers a early wip lol

 

[Kaitech[SanD]]

Hmmm, methinks I know who's coming in second...

I'm working on changing my DH into a vampire.

 

[INF3RNO]

update hehe

 

[frostwhisper]

Sick idea INF3RNO.

 

[Kaitech[SanD]]

Well, MAJOR update! I think that I need to colour his legs in, then polish up the colour, then shade it THEN go for the main detail.

He's gonna be a vampire >

So, changes since last time;

Vampirised his skin
Changed colours on the headband

To do all that took a good 45 minutes..

I think he looks rather human than dreadlord at the moment, but he's in his earlier stages.

 

[Deleted member 126647]

Chriz. You should see it now, I'm just in the process of shadding it, I redid the blade a bit.

 

[Dionesiist]

Well, here's some more of my skin, I'll think of some details for his icy plate pants later. Yes, I'm probably gonna lose miserably with this kind of idea... And don't give me shit about the shoulder not lining correctly, I can't fix it, the UV is horrible.

 

[Kaitech[SanD]]

Does he still have his hammer? That's gonna look kinda horrible with his anime...

Anyway, got another MASSIVE update!

Finally started Vamparising him with the paleness! Gonna start adding blood effects when I finish the hair.

 

[Deleted member 126647]

Hey inferno, make the skull on his back into a ham, that'll be awesome.

Kaitech, start doing some actual freehand work on the texture before showing it here, so far it's really just a recolored demonhunter with new blades.

 

[Kaitech[SanD]]

Haven't I already made it clear that I'm doing freehanding last?

In fact, I'll start now and turn the fur on his waist into some kind of Plated Belt from Diablo 2... Then light-blue-ify the plates..

 

[Dionesiist]

Try shading it more and adding details, maybe some plate over his pants, dunno.. right now it looks like a recoloured demon hunter..
EDIT: Why is my texture totally ignored?

 

[Odin]

Frosty, call me *** again and I will hunt you down.
Odin, quote him and not censor *** again and I'll send my currently reskinned DH on you

yea haha real... oh shit that IS scary

Btw my new copy of photoshop just arrived, so i guess i'll start skinning very soon

 

[frostwhisper]

Allow me an opportunity to mention that I hate the Ancient Protector unwrap.
