J the only thing I see really strange with your skin is that it looks pixelated, granulized, sandy, whatever you wanna call it. It needs more depth, ya know, more definition along the lines, blending, that little crap. Unless you plan on doing the skin in "stages" and in that case yeh the front of the eyes is the only odd thing.
the GHOST one looks like a cross between the alien creature ships in "War of the Worlds" by Wells and a huge crab of some sort. doesn't look that evil either. The original starcraft one = pwn. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
Hey guys I'm new here and I'm new to skinning, but i decided to give the overlord skin a shot. Technically, this is my first skin since i've done this from scratch and not simply modified the colors... <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo--> Heres what I have done so far. Note that these are just the base colors and stuff for the skin. I havent really worked on any details on the texture itself though. I did this in about, oh say 3 hours. Most of the time was just trying to figure out the mesh so i know where to place the eyes <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/nerd.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd.gif'><!--endemo-->
Not bad ThoraX, the shade is perfect (fits in with the Kharaa infestation). I'd add some highlights here and there, some details, but that can come later. For now though, I'd fix up the head before you get too far, there seems to be a lot of blurring on the texture.
Now that I think about it, that skin makes me wanna go out for some honey mocha cappucinos. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
yeah, the face on the .bmp is one of the most detailed at the moment. I did some alterations and slight detailing to the skin <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->.
Anyone know where i can get a nice alieny/veiny texture? color doesnt matter, as long as it's well defined.
<!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo--> oh i searched in google <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> for alien skin and came up with that on like page 5.
yes darker is actually better <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> but otherwise good job guys <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> almost done with it (i cant remember.. where animations finished??)
Wow! Now the Flying Potato looks sinister and intimidating! <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::onos::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tiny.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tiny.gif'><!--endemo--> Not to mean anything tho <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->
I just dont see why none of you are Doing a Starcraft colorschene as oposed to the Starcraft:Ghost color scheme. I have a question. Are those leges going to dangle like that in the final or is somone going to animate them? They just dont look right dangling.
tbh it looks kinda like a cat with tassles hanging from it. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> not sure how to spell that <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->
