WIP Hydrolisk (Blood Mage Skeleton!)

Any ways, I was inspired by all the uber work around here so I decided to start my own skin! Considering that my new campaign will soon be started and that it needs a skin like this, I also decided to show you my work! (Inspiration comes mainly from olof's mage of the damned. GJ! )

Bah, I'm about finished. Need criticism.

Theres a problem with being a skeleton: He has a big nose. Skulls have no pronounced nose.

Anyways, there are very defined different colours on the face, you should blend them together.

What did you do to that leg? =/

You need shading, texture, blending of the colors, etc
Go look at tutorials

K, thanks. Ingame he doesn't look half as bad *LOL*. Wait, how, would I have to edit the model to fix his nose? Meh, looking for skinning tutorials!

Just alpha it out.

go over to skinning contest 8 i think olof or erwt removed the nose on a skeleton skin look at the process it underwent thats what you want to do to the nose.

Oh I see... thanks. Well, anyways. The tutorials gives me some insight though I can't believe it does anymore since I'm using GIMP 2 and I can't bother to download Photoshop. It's pointless as I think GIMP can do the exact same things and probably more.

didnt somebody make sumthing like that for a skinning contest already?

Mehhh I wouldn't be so sure about that
But look for some GIMP tutorials then

And yes someone did, hes basing his skin off of Olof's Damned Mage skin

Which seems pointless to me.

Indeed, but hey everyone can do what they wanna, I'm not gonna stop them

Blend your shading.

As far as I can see, having used both, photoshop is infinitely preferable to the GIMP. Yes, the GIMP has adequate tools for free-hand digital artwork, but I find it lacking in a few areas, such as the filters available, and the lack of layer styles. Also I don't find it as easy to work with as photoshop, and the multi-window approach is awkward to say the least.

Bah, I hate doing this, sort of reviving this thread, but I need to show long-needed updates! Infact, I'm about finished!

updates?
