My first skin

This is my skin, entitled the Dark Paladin. Please, by all means, judge it.

I know it's mostly a re-color, but I did do several changes.

And his portrait.

It's hard to see what you changes, exactly. It would be easier to comment on the skin and offer suggestions if you posted the actual skin and not just a screenshot.

thats not his portrait thats his icon..
anyway try to use WC3Viewer when posting screenshots.
(its available in the donwloads section)

Here is the skin unwrapped, please ignore all the blue crap around it.

And the original skin I based it off of to make it easier to see my changes.

I bet if you removed Team color and hero glow it would look a ton better and less like a recolor...

How might I go about doing that?

yeah, sorry shadowmeld, it's kinda off topic-

'Dark Paladin' is an oximoron *ugh*
I've seen way too many people use this and it's really sickening me. A Paladin CANNOT be dark-It's saying "Evil Angel" :bangH:

the skin looks good, but just remember what i'm saying ;)

Alright.. his new official name is:
Formally good-hearted Paladin now turned evil for some unexplained reason.

Happy?

Lol, try "Fallen Paladin", "Anti-Paladin", "Dark Knight" or something along those lines.

The skin is pretty good for being a recolor, though the lion on his belt should be turned to something much more evil looking.

It's actually Uther's version of the lion (slightly different from normal) then inverted. What do you suggest?
