Texturing Contest #23 - Dark Entities/Revenants

[Ardenian]

I can't still find a good model to base on. :3

^This

 

[morbent]

Oh alright so Firelord is out then. Red flames just don't fit in with dark.
Regarding 100% freehand, if you say so, but I'm thinking 75 would have been better for most...
Time to search for a model now.

 

[Ardenian]

Regarding 100% freehand, if you say so, but I'm thinking 75 would have been better for most...

You know, if someone would be very petty one could say you wouldn't even be allowed to use layers while drawing with a 100% freehand.

Let's not go there, alright?

You are twisting my words and I'm not liking it one bit.
Keep it cool, the rules are clear as they can be(so let's not be pricks now).

That's was updated hours ago:

Preferably the submitted skin should be 100% freehand(No CnP's or recolors allowed).

You can still make it to at least 75% though.

I am not the one changing everything the way I want it to
and teasing and harassing on people asking questions which are dumb and have an obvious answer in your opinion.
You know, I am just sitting around sipping at my tea and thinking about what could be your next move

 

[Heinvers]

As in your next questions.

The rules are set already, cannot be changed.
Where do you see: 'You are not allowed to work in layers' ?

Just try to differentiate things and see what I say, no reading in-between lines.

 

[Moy]

No drama pls.

 

[Direfury]

Isn't there a rule against harassing or bullying?

If so, shut the fuck up. If not, shut the fuck up.

 

[Moy]

Who are you referring?

Please guys let's just focus on our textures. D:

 

[Ardenian]

Isn't there a rule against harassing or bullying?

If so, shut the fuck up. If not, shut the fuck up.

The rule works perfectly fine, doesn't it ? You are the perfect example, thank you.
It is so hypocritical to behave as if one's behaviour was ideal whereas one attacked someone. And who is the guilty person ? The one who openly talks about it.

Enough drama and off-topic for today.

 

[morbent]

Did I cause this? I apologize.

 

[Ardenian]

Did I cause this? I apologize.

No need to, you did not.

 

[Heinvers]

You start off fine when the thread's made and now you end up here...

Enough drama and off-topic for today.

What is the problem here? I log out for an hour or so and this comes up.

It's not really your concern what I say in-between asterixes. Those are off topic anyway so I make them clear as day that they're not to be taken seriously(Learn to differentiate between what's serious and what's not).
Besides you're the one causing silly dramas out of presumed 'harrasment posts' which is not the case here.

[Solved]

So, aside from all this fuss, do you have a wip of your alleged texture to show?

 

[Ardenian]

Besides you're the one causing silly dramas out of presumed 'harrasment posts' which is not the case here.

Check your answers in this thread, tell me whether you don't consider them at least teasing. They simply aim for making me look bad, don't they. Oh, wait, I search them for you: Here and here.

Well, then I am the drama bitch here, taking everything serious or offensive and being not able to communicate or understand 'jokes'.

So, aside from all this fuss, do you have a wip of your alleged texture to show?

I never said something into this direction. Oh no, I did NOT just discuss without having something in the back, did I.

I still wait a bit to see who is going to judge before I start creating anything.
Not that it actually matter, I don't participate seriously thinking about winning this, but better a judge being constructive and just than someone I don't know.

 

[Heinvers]

> Teasing <
> Being annoyed <

No idea how those posts are seen as a tease...
Once again make the proper difference.

Also, I didn't mention drama bitch anywhere on the thread. Once more you just bait here.
You know, it's not really great nor constructive to just look for some imaginary 'problems' to be pissed off about when there are none.
(That's for the layers comment you made)

Tell me when you're done with this fuss and started being proper.

[Solved]

Contest judges will be found later(besides, I have a good idea whom to ask/people with experience in the fields).
That doesn't mean that you cannot start working on your skin entry.

 

[morbent]

Nah Heinvers I was just asking. I mean I can work with 100% freehand, it's just that sometimes at some places of a texture there isn't much need of a change. Like a bracer or something, if you want to go for a Warcrafty look you should just keep it very similar.. But now that it's "Preferably" I think it's ok. Anyways,

First Wip (Having transparency issues)

 

[Heinvers]

That's sweet morbent.

So far we have three people that posted wip-s. Keep 'em coming folks.

 

[Sin'dorei300]

Guys, keep a civilized tone and avoid making drama.
Let's focus on the contest.
Avoid being off-topic, please debate other problems using VM(Heinvers, Ardenian).

 

[8512590215848]

i will parcipicate

 

[Blood Raven]

I'll be turning the Blood Mage into this thing

this thing

It might be challenging though.

 

[morbent]

Spent mostly the whole day alphaing this thing. The leather strips took a looot of time to place correctly.. What kind of a person decided to wrap it like that? Whatever...

WIP 2

 

[Moy]

I got a problem. My PC's power supply exploded.

 

[Red]

I'm probably in. We'll see what I come up with in the next few days.

 

[chr2]

Okay, so my original plan to create a water revenant didn't really work out, as I realised it wasn't really following the rules (with not being shadowy/dark and whatnot). So, instead I'll be joining with the Lich.

 

[morbent]

I've been playing too much Witcher 3...

 

[Heinvers]

Pretty cool, I would simplify the chain mail a bit though.
It's rather excessively small and redundantly detailed.

It might look clogged in WE and in-game.
[Solved]

 

[morbent]

Yea it looks a bit weird atm, I know. I'm gonna go back to it last as I want to add some under the leather straps as well.

 

[Kyrbi0]

Lookin' cool, guys.

 

[morbent]

Until I figure out where exactly the location for the Portrait Helmet Hole Texture part is, I'll be sticking to this, with less updates, probably.

WIP

256x256

1024x1024

Preview (Large image)

 

[PROXY]

Looks really nice. Love that helmet.

 

[Chen]

Guess what this is and what model will I use and I'll give you a /hug.

Love

 

[Shar Dundred]

Holy- datz awesome!

Keep going, morbent!

 

[morbent]

I can't guess the first, but the second one is easy - Voidwalker! He's got that long jaw that is going to be perfect for this.

 

[Deolrin]

Looks like a Sha from World of Warcraft? Haven't played in that expansion so I'm not sure...

 

[Heinvers]

Yes, it's a Sha(featured in MoP expansion).
Anyway, as morbent said, first would look great on voidwalker, second would be Shade(or so).

 

[morbent]

Ah yea, shade. Better idea, as it has the black smoke already. Although, I think lower texture quality? As far as I remember, the shade wasn't as good as the Voidwalker...

 

[Deolrin]

You can increase texture size (quality). That's not a real problem. The only problem would be animations and model/wrapping issues.

 

[Chen]

Thanks morbent, Deolrin and Heinvers, you all get hugs!

Yep I'm using 512x512 shade texture since it fits better. WiP:

 

[BETABABY]

I guess its too late to join the contest?

 

[Heinvers]

Not at all, you can join a contest anytime you like just as long as it's before the deadline.

 

[BETABABY]

When is the deadline??

 

[morbent]

It takes like 2-4 days to get your entry to a decent level, probably a few more to perfect it. And of course, I do not mean full time days.

Edit: The contest shall begin on September 26th 2015, 18:00 GMT and conclude on October 31st 2015, 18:00 GMT, GMT

Read the first post for all info.

 

[BETABABY]

Oh sorry bout that hahaha guess I just needed some quick info.

Edit: Thanks btw, and oh what do you mean by days to get your entry to a decent level? and probably a few more to perfetc it?

 

[morbent]

What I mean is that it doesn't take long to actually make something for a contest, even though it goes on for 30 days or so. It takes only a few to make your entry, you know. To draw the texture and all. So what I meant overall I think is that even if there were like 2-3 days left, it still wouldn't be too late to join.

 

[BETABABY]

Oh...Okayy


Edit: Uhmm... I read about what type models to be skinned upon but do other models like arthas or any other good units are allowed to be skinned upon as long as the skin you made is dark and sinister??

 

[Heinvers]

Yes, any unit model that's found in the game.

 

[BETABABY]

Thanks

 

[neven1]

Guess what this is and what model will I use and I'll give you a /hug.

Love

wow thats amazing

 

[Apheraz Lucent]

Asked to be a judge, so you got one up

 

[Heinvers]

I was expecting you to join it instead but if you want that.
Are you sure about this Apheraz?
