My first skin attempts

These are some of my first skins I have made, and are basically somewhat recolors.

They're supposed to be a part of my RPG Campaign I'm working on, and are not totally done yet.

Please post your comments :D

i thinks this is really good for a first attempt.
that armour on the grunts chest is it CnP or your own skills?

Female orc's a little bright in the face.

Nice orc, even though that's the Wolverine's armor. :p

No CnP

As MasterSlowSoke said, it's the wolverines skin, but I added the helmet part since it normally seems to be bald

The female orc may look a bit bright in the face, but it looks a bit better ingame.
I'll try to darken it a bit

btw, thanks for teaching me some of that alpha channel editing MasterSlowPoke :D

It really helped alot.

also, thanks to phoenix_s for removing the ring from the band between her legs!

But as I was saying, these skins aren't done yet, so I'm always open for comments on how to make them better!

if it is the wolwerine armour and you didnt use CnP...How did you get it there you skinned it all over again?

What I did was basically color all the red skin color on it green

Oh, that's right... A little bit of CnP...:bgrun:
The helmet was taken from the chaos grunt, sorry.

then I just imported it into the game using the chaos orc model

you'll find the skin in the image extractor under:

Units\demon\chaosorcrange...

(not sure if it's the wolverine, but I guess it is since MasterSlowPoke said so) :ggani:

anyway, made some few adjustments to the F. orc

looks better?

they seem mostly perfect, but thats just because they aren't changed much from blizzard's skins

i think you should completly redo the Armored Orc's armor, give him more heavy gear, well just in the chest department atleast, the markings on the armor aren't working to well since they are already being used by another, and the helmet is kinda ugly

and the Female Orc, well she should have some short fangs, and completly change the design of her armor, if you can model edit, then change her weapon aswell, the designs are Nightelven, while it may be hot, its already taken

id sketch you some ideas for different designs, but using a mouse i can't do nada

oh yeah, why not try to make an Orc Hero out of the Archimonde model as a base? get rid of his crown (forehead), change his face a bit, and get rid of his tale, give him a long flowing cloak and Battleaxe with a head half the size of him, something that'll look like it should remove parts of the body in a single swipe, that is ofcourse if you can edit models

if you've played Final Fantasy 4 (2e) then use Golbez as a target

well you have been lucky if you got a working version of 3dsmax...
i got like 10 different downloads now and NONE works :(
btw EBJ i dont now why everyone thinks its bad to use CnP
if it gets the best result? also i dont think th F orc should have red lips...

i think the female orc's weapon looked similar to Krill's blade darken her a bit more around everywhere but the face think that should work
if your making her the female half orc assassin lose the shoulder blades seems to cumberson for an assassin

Okay! I'll darken her a bit.

Calzone: I totally agree! CnP can also be a positive thing... I didn't want the orc to be totally bald with giant horns, that's why I put the helmet on his head

Exodus: Don't know how to model edit, and these are as the thread says: my first skin attempts.
But I would love to learn :D

What programs do I need? know about Gmax, but not so sure about the programs which are used to import the models into these programs.
Also, I have milkshape, but aren't very good at using it :(
Which is better for WC models?

downloading gmax at this second...

btw, Exodus, those ideas sounded really cool!

Also, I haven't played any FF games so I don't know what he looks like...

for what i know you cant import your model into Gmax (not sure
at least it dont work for me but no one wants to help out :( )
so i think you need 3dsmax 4.0 + ...However if you download on Kazaa or something (which i know you will! 4000 dollars is a big sum) make sure its at least over 200.000 kb or otherwise its possible that its only the half of the program. Its hard to find:nono:
