Dungeon Overlord WIP

This skin was originally for the skinning contest #9 which I didn't enter, nevertheless I intend to finnish this skin.

Just posting here to get some feedback. I need suggestions for the *cheeks/robe*.

EDIT:
Added 2 updates.

EDIT #2:
Updated (the Skull on the chest isn't made by me, got it from a cousin. Turned out he got it from KDEWolfs' old Bloodmage skin unwrap (croped it out). It will be removed, though.)

Zoom (requires log in)

Cheers,
~Archian.

Looks good besides from the head, I don't like that really.

I like it, though... it does look a bit weird, it looks like some kind of zombie orc judging from the face, and the body doesn't really fit with that. Though, on it's own, the body is quite cool

It's meant to be an *undeadish*-orc/zombie/demon-underground guardian/overlord (havn't really decided yet ever since I changed concept )

That is because the wrap is .TGA and not .BLP in this case x)
It's the alpha that is shown (won't be if it was .BLP, but I'm going to remove the alpha anyway :P)

Make the skull he wears metal, and his skin a "normal" skin color. (brown, green, pink, whatvere suits your needs)

Nice body. Fix the alpha channel though, the teamcolor sticking through is ugly this way.

Okay, my critiques:

Ditch the skull on the chest, looks like it was just stuck on there with glue or something, doesn't add much to the skin as a whole.

The rest of the body I like, the color scheme is nice, would be better to see that consistency in the face as well, or throw that color you currently have for it somewhere else in the skin too, to balance it out.

When you get to the axes, be more creative than the others were, try something completely off the wall, could add a lot to the skin.

I don't really know what to do for the cape, maybe make it tattered cloth and such, to go with the rest of his attire. And I'd make the boots the same style as the gloves, to keep more consistency.

Overall, what you have is good, so try to tie it all together with every little piece you add. That's what makes a skin in my opinion.

Hmm rethinking about it, I think you should make him an Undead, that skull on the chest would make him great to be a servant of Nerzhul....just a thought

It looks like hes wearing a skull, due to the texture and color difrences beween the lower and upper parts of the face. Its a cool idea, roll with it, but make it better.

Or fix the head so it doesnt look like a skull...

Either way, fix the head.

I think the skull on the chest looks fine.

Looks very nice
But the red clashes with the skin tone, you seriously have to rethink that color, or just redo the face into something not Orc-ish
