Ok, here's Version 1.02 of the Nekrix Skin, and I drastiaclly improved my version of Kalandornyo. I also gave up trying to mess with Nekrix's chest, so I just put the daggers back.

PS: Pencilgod, I'm not trying to compete with you, I just wanted to see what all I could do with him. Also, I figured that this could be a good base for you to start with.

Here it is:

NEcro looks great but that fluf on Kal's face needs to be shaded in a bit or something cos it sticks out in a bad way

Pretty cool design on the necro, although I think you should brighten his face so that its clearer. I know its supposed to be dark, but it can be dark without being vague.

I will forever hate arthas's eyebrows, and the ingame portrait shots that blizzard did of eyebrows lol

In game you can see Nekrix's face quite well. The reason it looks so dark is because his mustache and beard are black. I actually changed very little on the face color from the normal Kel'Thuzad. The screenshot being so much smaller than the game screen makes everything looks small and jumbled, but it's actually not that way in reality. Arthas' eyebrows may be obscure, but I sure as hell don't hate them! What I hate is the Necro skin warping everything at the chest and Arthas' chest leaning over to the right making it nearly impossible to make a symetrical chest pattern! The eyebrows work right, and for that reason alone I like them! Besides, Kalandornyo has big, bright eyebrows in the picture I drew of him back when I invented his character. Arthas really is a great model for Kalandornyo, the only things wrong are his hair being too short and his cape should be more like Batman's, and I can live with the cape (Hopefully MasterSlowPoke will lengthen Arthas' hair for me). I also originaly wanted Kalandornyo to be a weaponless melee fighter, since it's hard to drink someone's blood with a maul :(.

To Iceslushee: I worked on the goatee. I know why it was so bland in this pic--right before finishing that skin I used the dodge tool on all parts of his hair. It made it all brighter, but since the goatee was my own noob creation the shading all-but vanished! It looks right now, but a minor change like that didn't need it's own screenshot.

-----------------------Would this be a bad time to once again beg for a modeler to do Mortuskull???

JESUS F#CKING CHRIST A BLING-BLINGING!! Kiether, only about a week ago you only had 20 posts! Now you have a shitload! Do you post "Nice Skin" in EVERY THREAD LOL :sweatdrop ? Oh well, I guess it's a good way to get your post count up. You HAVE to have set a record with this!

PS: I'm done with Nekrix. Everyone likes him, and other than "Brighten him up" I've had no complaints. Kalandornyo was just an experiment by me, since Pencilgod is doing the real thing, so I'll just let him finish. I've really started to like skinning, though, so I may post additional skins here (Like a new Skeleton, Skelton Archer, Lich, Paladin, Shaman, and maybe even more.)

I really like the nec, nice job with him.

As Iceslushee said though the beard on Arthas stands out, might wanna shade it in a bit more to make it blend in with his face. But seeing as PencilGod is making that, it doesn't much matter:////

anyway, nice skins:D

These are the Skeleton Warriors and Archers that Nekrix will be using. He will also summon Magi, but I've yet to start with the Lich. List of changes:
1: I Alphaed out the spaces between to rib to make it look like a skeleton and not a halloween costume.
2: I turned the warrior's sword into the Kill-o-Matic 5000
3: I added just a pinch of blood. (Yeah, a pinch from GOD :sweatdrop )

Here they are:

i like the blood effect. i mean hell, if they are poping out of a corpse in a bloody mess, u cant expect them to magically stay clean, can u?
