Fat Viking

Fat Viking

I just felt like skinning the Tuskar model in to a human, so I made a viking out of it. I also removed the weapon so attachments can be used.

awesome!

very cool. however a viking helmet would be appropriate for this model.

Works for a Dwarf, especially since they're Norse inspired, but not very convincing for a human.

Agree with Afro on the helm, whether its a Spangenhelm or not. Depends if you want it to be true to fact or Warcraft style :)

It turned out great though those "braids" annoys me a little, they are too darn stiff.
I concur with Whitehorn and Afronight_76, the head could use a helmet (like I posted in the WIP) or a headgear of some sort.

A helmet would look awesome. But with just a skin, this is top notch genius. Good job Olof

It's kind of boring.
Bunch of red, bunch of blue, some brown, and hair that looks nearly the same color as the face.
Barely any differentiation up there other than the texture.
The "gloves" still look furry too.

This needs a lot more work if you ask me.
Come on, even buttons on the shirt would be an improvement.
Something, it needs more detail and more variety.

I agree with Dusk, give it a more warrior feel? More armor, give it back his axe, etc.

To answer everyone saying he needs a helmet, it would be nearly impossible to skin a helmet on, though an attachment could work. But most vikings didn't even have helmets.

This is what viking clothes looked like, no buttons, one colour, and a belt.

I always try to make my models and textures are close to reality as possible.

Vikings didn't have much armour to begin with (helmets, shields, chainmail and arm protection for archers, that's it), and this isn't exactly a warrior, it's more of a generic viking, the axe had a horrible warp, and as I said, you can always attach a new weapon if you want to.

Olof, while I commend you for sticking to history --

That torso needs some sort of design, addition, extra help in order to look good.
Also, the gloves still look furry, you should get rid of the texture effect.
The beard and hair parts look really blurry, too.

The skin lacks detail, it lacks variety, it lacks a lot.
No offense intended, but you can do a lot better.

It works for me. Good job.

i think its cool, one can use him as a sort of villager now aswell!

Nor were they short stubby walrus men, but yeah...

look more like gallic to me i don't know why maybe it remember me some character from Asterix & Obelix.

Approved.
