Going further back to the original skin.

Your stupidity really doesnt seize to amaze me.
A: I cant ban people.
B: I wouldnt ban people for personal reasons.
C: Critisizing someones work is not considered an offence.

So what the fuck do you think you are doing, seriously. If you are intimidated by my position or something rediculous like that, dont post in my threads and leave me alone.

Also, if you are going to critisize my work, at least do it in a way that i can make sense of.

OK, so here is what I wanted to say: In the Skinning Contest #8: Which had as a purpose the creation of skins that wrapped on the Wc3 Model known as Blood Mage, you made a skin. In that skin, you gave the Blood Mage Model from Wc3 a silver circlet, which looked good. After that you made the shoulderpads to fit the circlet. Now the shoulderpads are made of wood and I personally don't like them. As I don't personally like his body. <-- This is what I meant. Also, there is no need to be unfriendly, I did not want to stirr up this reaction.

Who were you talking to?

This post, wich he sneakely deleted.

It was me the one who stirred sir Erwtenpeller into becoming unfriendly. Deepest apologies.
Alas, I am a bad person.

I don't know if this is that old skin you were talking aobut or that it's a modified version of the skin you were gonna submit in the contest. But this face looks much better, but I liked all the other stuff on the contest skin.

Meh, I liked the other one better.
I think the shoulders and top of the cloak contrast too much --
It's like this:

"Okay, it's brown... HOLY CRAP YELLOW/ORANGE?"
That's what went through my head when I saw it.

And aside from that, I really can't figure out why I don't like this one.
It just doesn't tickle me like the other one did.
For some reason this feels boring in contrast.

It might have something to do with the shoulders being... Just wood.
It's not as aesthetically pleasing as the thorny designs on the other one.
Oh and the eyes are an improvement, but I thoroughly enjoyed the facial structure of the old one.
It sort of loses that flare here.

Still a good job though.

This is more or less a concept skin anyway, i didnt spent a lot of time refining the woody texture, wich should be kind of obvious.

We've dicided to take the leaf crown and the new cape, stick it to the old texture, and brighten the old texture up. I'm also going to do some changes to the old face and hair, becouse i like the composition of the new one better.

I'm basically still experimenting and feeling around what would be best. I even slapped some leaves on medivh to see if that has potentional for the character.

Medivh doesn't look half bad.

Personally I like it, humans that are skinned into Ancients always turn out unique and very interesting

Omg! You killed the jaw! I loved that jaw, i had plans for that jaw! :(

The new eyes look quite evil now instead of soulless antipathy, the crown of leaves behind the head looks a little odd and the shoulders are horrid. The cape's looking pretty good and the body is fine, i suggest you up the saturation on the skin however, it's too desaturated for Warcraft, Blizzard worked with really rich, vibrant colours, and if you want this to fit in i suggest you use them too.

Gave it another shot. I think this'll be the last one.



The in-game footage would look better with brown team color, but i couldnt figure out how to put it on. Checking "Use custom teamcolor" did not work.

That is, by far, one of the best skins ive ever seen. THAT is what im talking about with the erw factor for all you numbnuts that said "You know what to expect so its not as good". This is far better then all the other versions posted and proves my point that i knew he could do soemthing better then what was being shown.

Amazing, gj erw.

BTW so glad you changed the face. :P

I still liked the old face better.
However, this cape I will admit is far superior to the old one.

I think the face gives the appearance of being too evil.
He's sort of lost the callousness that the old face had, but se la vie.

Neat stuff, Erwt.
