Nearly EXCLUSIVE first look ;)

That idea with two opposite teams sounds great.

But the trick is if their theme should be opposite it would be rather difficult I would guess so only two themes where anybody could tell the difference.That should stick well enough IMO!

Or maybe they should have a little similarity just for the looks. Don't know exactly what it should be but it could be nice.

 

[Darth_Chaos]

Well not exactly opposite cause that does sound difficult but more like 2 rival teams of some sort.

Sorry I didn't post a pic yet - got struck down yesterday with heat stroke ok today though so I'll get it done. In a way they might be opposites because the first three were all gold looking and this one (the seventh) is very silvery... Anyways I'll get back soon with a pic

 

[klasnic]

Ok I threw this pic together... The skin's not quite complete yet but you'll see what I mean about it being a different theme to the others

The two pics on the left show the skin without effects and the right one shows it with effects (they're not completely done yet either)...

The TCs are a deeper shade of red/blue and cover the purple areas in the pic, oh and I haven't named him yet but he'll have a Romanian/Russian name

 

[Cantar]

any chance of resking one of the egyp females?

Might do, Cantar - I haven't skinned an Egyptian yet although I like the models. I'll see what I can do :tup:

All done with the other... Here's the promo with the default and team variations (still untitled)

Nice work Klasnic , as always

 

[Darth_Chaos]

I like the silver look its much darker and it would be a good sort of good versus evil idea if ya think about it. I normally hate the hellion designs(just do, cept ophelia) but the hellion skin for this pack is great so you may convert me to liking them! Great job so far and cannot wait, but I have 1 ques.- about how big do you think it will be?

 

[klasnic]

Nice work Klasnic , as always

Thanks SaD - I quite like this one myself... Looks a bit like the old knight that was in Indiana Jones 3, I think.

about how big do you think it will be?

Good question but I've no idea at the mo... I'd say 8 characters altogether, 4 light and 4 dark. It just might be bigger than EVILution (13MB) as I'm not gonna' compress them so much cos they're a lot more detailed. Shouldn't be too big though as it's a pain for ppl with crappy modems (myself included). On another note he's now called Vrykolakas *coughs at the tongue twister* and funnily enough the Hellions are probably my favourites of the newer models but that's just me.

 

[Darth_Chaos]

Its not really the hellions but human characters in general. I tend to like the more fantastic and unreal characters. I just wanted to make sure it wouldn't be 40mb, that would be crazy.

No way man... It might be that before I compress it but I'd say 15MB max. I've tried to make the packs as small as poss so I'm not excluding too many ppl. :tup:

Yay , I was scared I get 40 MB and have to upload them @ SkinCity = 80 MB .
Everything under 20 MB is fine tho.

 

[klasnic]

hehe, not to mention me having to send them through my email using a modem which would probably blow it up!

 

[Darth_Chaos]

Any pics for us? It seems like things are coming along well. And when do you think it will be available?

 

[Mr.Wigglez]

yea cant wait to see clanlord.

 

[daloonie]

It's great that Hellion with the toungetwisting name. Just a question on him on that metallic net thingy do you have a TexEnvMap on that or is it static lit?

I would think a little cubemap and a very dark alpha(the one to say how much you want to cover the skin with an overlying layer) and then a cubemap on that plus the silver thingies would be awesome.

 

[klasnic]

Chaos and Wigglez, I'd say I'll get started on Clanlord later on. The pack will probably be a couple of weeks as I wanna' take my time on it

Rex, I used two environment maps, but I've used a different one for each skin colour - a purple, blue and red one. Then a silver one to light up the silver areas on each. The silver one finished it off nicely. Now if I can make Clanlord in that style I'll be very happy

 

[Darth_Chaos]

Sounds good and I can imagine this thing will probably take a couple weeks. Good job and luck to ya and may the force be with you.

 

[daloonie]

Shading buisness is quite easy(doesn't take much time to do) and it gives extra spice in a very awesome way

Klasnic that sounds really cool but how do you apply two EnvMaps? Two shaders/combiners combined?
Never done that thou only Mask/trans/TexEnvMap in one and hell that was difficult to pull off.

 

[klasnic]

No no, I meant I used a silver one for specular and a coloured one for self-illumination Although after reading your post, rex it gave me an idea to try on another one... I'd say you could make a combiner with two environment maps and one thing I want on one of these skins is a suit like in Star Trek Nemesis on the Remans (purple/green oily look). I'll experiment when I've time
