Will this skin work/look good?

[ZZY]

I made him in PS CS5 out of the undead ghoul, but for some reason i get the feeling he will look terrible in game.

I would check myself but when ever i load him up in the image extractor to save, its says its missing the ij55(more garbage here) file.

thanks for your feed back

It's look good from here, but it's CnP.

 

[ZZY]

cnp?

 

[Hawk]

CnP is Copy and Paste.

 

[ZZY]

is that bad?

 

[Etzer]

Yup. It's not legal here on the site.

 

[ZZY]

oh, ok thank you

 

[Hawk]

If you use in your map it's legal, but if you upload it here it's not legal.

 

[ZZY]

yes i understand, does that also mean you cant help me convert back to blp? BTW /\/\ Nice lotr lurtz model

 

[Hawk]

I'll try send me the file...

[EDIT]: I send you a friend request =)

It doesn't look to terrible.
Maybe you should alpha out the hair.

im sorry, but as it is, i would not approve it at all. For starters, its CnP. and on the other note, its very bad CnP meaning, In game it looks absolutely horrid. So please. read the rules. Skins must be at LEAST 75% freehand and only 25% percent of a skin can be CnP/recolour. Another tip to live by is to consider the wrap. if your not considering the wrap, than the unwrap may look good, but the skin ingame will be an absolute mess. An example is the skin youve provided here. The Hive has many tutorials that you can check out to show you how to do the basics of art. But best of luck and keep trying.

What is wrong with cnp? Sorry not an artist. But can't it still be uploaded but just not accepted?

I mean, you don't have to accept it or anything. Its better than nothing, I'll use it.

For my own record, the only thing pasted was the head

And what about the whole body?

I strongly suggest you to do what Dentothor says, CnP's especially from photos tend to look terrible ingame, and also you won't be able to upload them here, because it's against the rules, which is caused by this normally beeing seen as Art stealing, because you do not have the right to use other peoples work or images normally.

And please do not double post, use the edit button instead.

But for sure: if you need help with an freehanded gollum skin, feel free to ask me for help
