The chain mail looks like just a bunch of circles, but at least you have shading. A lot more needs to be done with this, its a pretty bland design.

Can someone explain to me what is shading???

Can someone explain to me what is shading???

ARE YOU SERIOUS?!?!?!


anyway.. the chain male looks like a shaded filter...

and well.. since it looks like a filter to me.. i cant really say much..

 

[W!†A_cRaft]

Well I kinda get it but not the thing what it is. I mean a guy told me to shade my Ritualist model and i just couldnt do it I didnt know what should i do.

-.- first i feel like i did a good job then it gets ruined ><. Well techanlly it's circles and no its not a filter(no idea what a filter is).I made it in gimp 2 and it looks good in-game ,but you have your oppinion and i accept that.You didn't really tell me what to do to make it better just said what i did and that its bad.....

Hmm, the chainmail... tbh is horrid. Chainmail is not a bunch of circles next to each other I think you need to see it in real life.

The best thing i can tell you to do is too not make the chain so uniform there has to be pieces linking the chain together or else it does not work.
get some ref pics.

plus work on your shading. the shading you have right now is random and flat. think of the location of the light source and work from that. look at how metal reacts to light in real life and try to mimic it in your skins.

edit.
i may post an example of one method of doing chainmail on a "skin" later.
