Valkyrie_by67chrome.blp

BannerValkyrie2.jpg


This is a skin texture overrides the Sentry's, a Night Elf campaign unit. This skin can also replace the Night Elf Runner's, which is under the path Textures/Watcher.blp .The weapon and scroll are alphaed out in both cases, allowing you to attach any weapon to the Valkyrie. Both models also look exactly the same with this skin, their portrait, animations, everything.

Updated the skin + stuff I changed for the better (reasons you should download the updated version ;)

Added gold trim
Re-skinned the entire face, added pupils and fuller lips, fixed eyebrow
Re-difined the top of the helmet
Changed the G-String to have chain elements
Moved the boot up to cover the kneecap
changed the shinguard
increased the size of the shoe to fit the foot wrap
made the armor a little more shinny
Alphaed out part of the helmet wings
re-defined the left gauntlet to show all four fingers on the wrap
Re-drew scales on the front boot to create a more uniform mesh
Sharpened TC part of shoulderpad
Removed 3-D rotating skull that hung from the loincloth

- Update
Changed screenshot preview/moved screenshot to skin description
Added by67chrome suffix to skin name

I'm new in this forum, but a question to 67chrome, Can you do a model so you don't need to replace any normal units?

I have no modeling programs and don't know how to make any :sad: but I'm helping Misha out with a skin for his model, so mabee I could convince him to make models for me

Anyways, I'm working on updating this skin, changes will likly be:
- delete the rotating skull hanging from the pelvis
- fix the back of the leg so the loincloth thingy will be more uniform and symetrical
- make the armor more chrome with golden trim/make the armor less monotone
- possibly change around the face a bit to come closer to 100% freehand

If you can think about anything else I should change let me know, I get excited when I see more posts on any of my skins and check this site daily.

Very nice, i been browsing this site for quite a while only recently joined, and this has gotta be the best skin i seen so far.
Just a suggestion, you should do like an archer/ranger model in the same style would look awesome

Your skin looks very cool. I would give it a 5/5 if i could actually use it..... for some reason when i import the blp file and then change its path it doesnt replace the runner or the sentry. If someone could plz help me that would be GGRRRRREAT!
