I finally decided to have another try on a texturing contest.
Working on a Warden texture with some owl-like armor.

Believe or not, but I already needed around 2 hours just to get the shape of the mask right (the wrap is a total bitch) D:

oh and what size do you guys use when working on a skin??

I can see it now, when your raid strolls into his room...

"How do you do, I
See you've met my
Faithful
Handyman.

He's a
Little brought down because
when you knocked he
Thought you were the
Candyman."


...

No updates from me, but I gots ideas.

EDIT: and here they are.

Q: But it looks exactly the same!

A: Just you wait.

ya, a lot of his facial features are pretty masculine. The nose and mouth are going to be hard to work around to. Considering how feminine elven males already look Blizzard did a pretty good job at making the Blood Mage look like a dude. Could probably make a pretty good orc female out of him because their more or less the same cross of masculine/feminine elven males are, but unfortunately that's not allowed with the theme.

Hehe, maybe you could go for a Dwarven female look XD

Well, I didn't expect anyone to take on the MK, I might have to switch models now. Anyway, as GIMP crashed on me, I figured it was an OK timing to produce a WIP.

Wrap on the beard really is a piece of work, though. Will have to come up with something stretchable for the lower part.

EDIT:
Alpha is fairly stretchable.

Okay, so this is how he currently looks. I don't really know what the hell I am going to do with that chest-armor. I am thinking about turning it into platemail like the legplates. All I know is that the Kirin Tor symbol has to remain.

EDIT: Actually, I think I just solved that problem.

Looking pretty cool, Chrome. Bit of a clash of colours at the moment though.


More WIP.

Looking pretty cool skiik. Mustache looks a little big/plain compared to the rest of the beard. Also you could check out the Skin UVs link in my sig to get the UVs of the mountain king for weird stuff like his beard. Sort of curves outward halfway down, avoiding the bottom right corner of the skin.

Anyways, wip 2

shiiK, it looks great, but i think u might lose points in originality, MK is famous already for that makeover. Anyhow, looks really high quality so far, and a great MK replacement no doubt!

Famous for what makeover?
