Horndriver

Horndriver for Ominous Horizons (go have a look at it)

Model by: Kirithiboy (small edit by TiJiL)
Skin by: Me.


Its not quiet finished, I'll probably gonna do some team color/minor detail edits:

The Feathers will be team color, maybe something else, the redness on the loin cloth is only temp, it will be invisible later on.

hey!
very well done alll around:
my only crits are these:
the stomach seems a little absurdly defined, one would think that the long hair (as it is textured like) would hide most definition, so i would suggest either shorter hair textures, or make it fleshy.

other than that the ony issue i can think of would be contrast- he seems a little too monotone for a wc3 world- like everything will just blur together a bit when its in game- but thats your call. very nice work!

I like it , very nice. Only thing I think is that it needs like war paint, shaman runes, less stomach definition, as dem()n suggested, and thats it. Very nice and keep up good work!

Actually Goon, the models by Kirthi with only a minor edit by Tijil

I like the skin. One major issue I noticed right away, if this is going to be a skin seen close up during the game. The nipples, and possibly even whole pecks are way to close together. The pecks need to be wide and flat, and extend to his biceps on the sides. I really like THE_END's idea about war paint or runes. I was also thinking... Try making the bands that are wrapped around his horns (including the huge horn he is carrying) different colors. Not like rainbow, but maybe make those team color, I think it would set it off a bit more.

Overall, however, I like the skin a lot. Good job! :D

Edit: I just noticed something else (this is a problem with the model). His right hand goes INTO the large horn. I have no idea how hard that would be to fix (I only skin, I have no knowledge in modelling). Things like that just cheapen it though. Nothing to big, but it would be nice if it actually showed him correctly gripping the horn.

Its not animated yet, and plus, WCViewer screws up flat planes, hence some of the wierd glitches.

Hmm, right hand goes into the large horn? Thats not possible. I never made it that way. I think the view goongoon took a screenshot makes it look like and WC3Viewer does not depict the model and skin exactly the way it should appear in game.

Goongoon, I really like the skin. My only advice would be give it some color, some brightness. Currently, the skin color is too dull. Make the nose black maybe, liven up the eyes, etc. But anyways gr8 job keep it going !

its looks nothing like the other, better, OH skins

Jester, that's not helpful in ANY way. I am sure if he wanted to hear that his model was good or bad, than he would have asked if it was good or bad.

If you could go ahead and import and put him on a unit to see in the WE than it would clear that glitches right up. WC3 viewer may cause glitches, but you never know which ones are real until you try it out to see.

Well Jester unless you have plans to skin more units for us, I suggest you refrain from making comments of that nature.

Can we see a pic of the model from about the distance we could see it in game? I think thats the best way to judge a model/skin

Mav, if you go look at other, better looking games other than WC3, you'll see that your skinning style is messy and blurry, and not near as good looking or detailed, so get your head outta your ass and learn your place.

Heres my Horndriver,



And here is your Youngblood. (OOOO look at the nice omni filter on the eyes, good job Mav, that must've been hard you pro you.)

i was under the impression OH was in war3 and that were skinning for war3 not other games. i dont beleave youve seen my work on other platforms. i dont use filters, maybe you havent understood my standing on lense flairs etc. anyway yeah you really pwned me there kiddo with that ancient skin.
if you want to enter in competetion with me, enter the weekly skinning contest

You both have egos that would give mount everest penis envy. You're both good skinners who use much different techniques.

and I like that skin by jester, the fur looks good for such a low resolution.

The lines are way too bold and dark. Get rid of all the black lines it makes it look cartoony. The black lines make it seem comic like. The textures are nice but it seems kinda streched.
