ok its been a long time since i last skinned, and even then i sucked. lets face it, my old skins sucked. lol. i had a nice paladin unwrap, but the wrap made it look horrid. now i tried once again to use psp7 (which i once thought terrible for skinning) and got this: (based off of Medivh). yes theres a ton of recolor, but also alot of freehand stuff. please post positive c&c, i really think i did a nice job with this one. btw is 1024x1024, i figured id take a step up =D

meh... its pretty neat but i see a lot of recoloring... try skinning it like the ref as close as possible. as for the staff, the wooden part seems too low, make it expand more higher (looking from the ref)
(personally, i think and acolyte w/ a couple of mdl edits would be a better model to skin)

yea i know theres a ton of recoulor, thats just cuz so much of him only needed a recolor. and as for the acolyte thing, i thought about it, but it would take mdl edits (like u said) which i cant do... also ill look into the staff thing. if someone were to do some mdl edits, id gladly try this on an acolyte, as i think the shape is much better. but at the time, i tried to do it close to the ref pic, while still adding some details to make it look cool. (to make it like the ref pic, id basically recolor the whole thing blue)

but yea, if someone would edit the acoylte to have a staff, id love it, then i could try to skin him in this manner, infact ill start now, and if i get an mdl edit...

imo, high res for warcraft III is a stap down. the datail is useless and makes the skin file unusably big.

bah who cares what you ahve to say erwt, its not like YOUR a great skinner or anything! (joking) ill take that into consideration... it seemed that mr meesh did things with his blademaster on high res that you couldnt do on low res.. maybe im wrong. but i thought that this skin turned out much better than my paladin did (he was 256x256) even the 2d i think came out beter here

well just so you know, my skin got somewhat blurred i noticed looking back at the unwrap, so just so ya know azn, i think my unwrap looks more like the ref pic than the ss's do... anyway here it is C&C on unwrap too if ya'll dont mind

wow... i neva thought medivh had the crappiest unwrap ever...

sarcasm or honesty...? (in my post i ment i had softened, but the unwrap softened it a lil bit more, and that the detail put into my unwrap looked more like the ref than the wrap's detail did, not blaming the wrap tho)

I Agree That Mainly Recolor Was Required Here.

Most Main Details Were Already There And It Wasnt Exactly An Easy Recolor (example: ALL OVER BLUE). I Think Your Skin Looks As Close To The Real Thing As It Gets, Keep Up The GOod Work ;)

i actually didnt do one shade of blue, i used several. :P and on his gloves/bracers, i used some retouch... also on some part of him my name is hidden in the white branching stuff (my real name)
