took feedback on board and started another version of my courier concept - still very rough and ready, so will develop it further over the next few days
I love the design! It looks quitte strong, but I don't think that should be any problem the concept it self is looking too good not to try it!
I wouldn't change a thing about it, and start making it! If you use the flying design like the concept before I know the community will love it! Your an amazing concept drawer if I may add.
Just finished this simple mace that uses physics. Man I need a tablet.
good idea but you might want to alter the physics settings a bit, it doesn't act like it's heavy at all, that green thing looks more like a baloon at the moment.

thanks! though i agree with a lot of comments that it needs a bit of working on - at least to see which approach might work best... so here's the latest! trying to figure out more "dota-esque" proportions and style, (not accessories) which for the couriers seems to mean chunky and easily readable

hope i'm getting closer!
Well to be honost your right that some comments have valid points, but as fas as a design goes, I think it's going to be too much of a younger, cute, cartoony look. I liked the other design a lot more.
Also it seems cute couriers are really well accepted by the community, but I rather see something different this time. Look at the design of the Enduring War Dog. If you pull this off the right way, I know for sure you will have a Mythical courier in your hands!

Yeah, i know, but there's no documentation for it yet, and every time you want to test something you have to launch the game again, which is tedious, so i just left it as is. Valve can easily fix anything if they want to since bones are all set up properly. Also this thing needs particles to look like it was designed in mind

ok, so still a bit of refining to do - i think i'll take it into zbrush soon and start blocking something out there and see what it looks like!
Does anybody knows, is there any way to add glow (and other existing in dota 2) effects to custom items (via vmt correction or other way)? I mean in Red Channel of mask1 (details channel), as I understand we can paint where some effect will be visible...

Ye it appears that Cuteness is the path to succes. But yea I agree with you Andy. I rather see a badass mandril delivering items. Also another badass Dota2 Stylized courier is the Migthy Boar.

At least someone agrees I do like the cute couriers though, but like you said it's time for a badass courier.
I've started working on my high poly hyena courier, now that my bounty hunter sets got ingame it needs a courier which fits it The back legs needs some work, they look quitte flat at the moment
Disabled browsing & submitting in the Test Client, but allowed imports for testing purposes.
Added Beastmaster's Hawk and Lone Druid's Bear to the Ability Import list.
Seems Valve was listening. I'll post back here with the basic colors soon, but keep amazing me guys; I love the new faces popping up.
It seems that we now have something called Marketing, but there's no guide yet to what it's supposed to be. I guess you can uplaod your promo-image psd file.
organizedchaos - nice work! really like the face/mouth area
I came up with this batrider mount idea awhile ago, then everyone started making awesome batrider mounts :P
I figured it's different enough to try my luck at making and submitting it anyway though.
The idea was inspired from the swirls and designs on the orginal batmount.

IT'S NOT A BAT WHY DO I LIKE IT SO MUCH???? Dude this mount is bloody awesome!!!

Awwwhhhh bummer I had no idea you were doing this! Well, it will def be good to see if you've got a chance to get this ingame, so well done on having courage to do this! I figured it'd be too lorebending to go that extreme with the batrider's mount.

Wow That's really looking great, awesome execution! Now the name of the hero needs to change
@Bronto: I can see what you mean, although the only real simularity I can find is the tongue. The body is a lot less exaggerated for a real cartoon as well as the ears, teeth and gear. When I started I only used real reference, but to make it more dota 2 style I changed it to make it more cartoony. I think the only thing ppl are going to refer to Ed is because of the tongue, but that's actually the best thing for the courier to stand out. It should look like a crazy hyena
There are still a few things bothering me so I need to do some more work with the body, before it's finished.
Thx Frump fro the info Alpha support!!! Being a newbie I have a doubt. Does this means that the couriers don't have yet the alpha support or that they do have it? I have been working on a courier idea that could be improved with translucence in some areas.

Unfortunately I kind of have to change it's name. It's currently "Staff of Asclepius". But Asclepius' staff looks different. (you can google it)
