Showcase Skin No. 3: Nerubian Destroyer

Another blizzard style skin! Make them stop! MAKE THEM STOP!

Noo.

Anyway, this'll be the last of my blizzard style skins for now, onto the high res stuff next, but once again i wanted to make this guy fit into WCIII Melee, i've got a neat story for him too.

Trained from birth to be walking machines of destruction, the Nerubian Leviathans tower above the battlefield. Mightyer even than the dreaded Crypt Lords the Leviathans smash their way through everything, ripping apart enemies with their sweeping strikes. Should they go onto the defencive then the Leviathans can burrow into the ground, showing only their hardened upper carapace and spines, while sending forth spikes to burst out of the earth and impale their enemies.





Update to Headress



I spent a long time on this guy getting the blizzard feeling just right, i reckon his claws still look a bit wierd, but hey, thats alright. Onto the next one!

Well actually i'm all outta ideas, anyone got an idea for my next skin? Maybe i should do one for CC eh ewrt?

It looks nice but won't it look like one big mass of whatever you call that color? maybe a litlle variation would help distinguish it. I really like the top carapce tho'.

Yeah what Jerre said, I like the shell part or what ever its called not sure (the top of him) everything else seems a little too plain...

actually cause its a large unit it looks pritty good in game, see screenshot in post 1.

Very good imitation of the nerubian spiderlord (cause i assume you didn't use CnP)

Ohh okay... its alright looking game actualy ;)

yeah, its an imitation, as i said, it took me ages to get the blizzard spiderlord feel just right, i spent a long time on those runes on his carapace too getting them to look nerubian.

btw, if anyone has some ideas for color changes to make this guy stand out more (since tyrant thinks it should have some variation) what do you reckon i should change and to what color?

maybe you can do the bottm parts of him darker, like a car. and things like upper legs so the claws stand out more.

Looks awesome in game. Hate that egyptian thing tho.

Love the carapace. Good job on it. For the... 'egyptian' thing Egg mentioned, maybe make them bandages/cloth/rag. Notice all Nerubians have them. :)

Very nice work Phoenix... I love the carapace as well.

And if he's just a brute... then he shouldn't really have that egyptian thing on him... it would probably have been torn off by now.

verry verry sexy indeed... really good skin, the carpace rules... yes, its good... oh yeah...

better then my icy bastard ;)

pwnage.

For color ideas, notice that there are also purple and dark green nerubians. So use some of those colors to help give it a different feel. And as everyone's been saying, that egyptian headress doesnt fit in the skin at all.

I think that a pic of the portrait would be nice.

check the 3rd image on the first post, theres a pic of the portrait there (thats almost exactly the same camera angle, just zoomed out a bit.)
