Dude, you need to use Adobe Photoshop 7.0 for recoloring, otherwise it looks like crap. And maybe add some freehanding in there. And another thing for Shroud of Darkness the Sarina skin is going good.

Recoloring means that you change the color of existing graphical pieces in the skin file or change the skin brightness. You've just done that. When you freehand you DRAW the skin yourself from scratch using any drawing tools you like.

all you did was add some (vga looking) bloodlines. if im not mistaking you used a filter then recolored it?

it doesnt look like its ON the thingy but it looks like its the thing!!the "blood" on the sword looks like its a piece of red rock stuck on a sword, same as the other things. try making it LOOK like blood not like rock and smudge the edges
