Pierate's Dota 2 Thread

Pierate

Alrightio, figured I too should open a thread in this flashy new section of the forums. This first post will be used to display items/sets currently in the game, in the workshop and in progress, mostly will smaller icons.

I will try to keep this post up to date as much as I can

With that said, here goes...

Got the staff ingame and tweaked the masks to a point where I'm quite happy with them



His hand is in the wrong place because of the animation and I should probably tweak the blue a bit as it's pretty bright compared to KotL himself.

Pierate

Finished the staff, it can be found on the workshop right here: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=131416221





I'll be updating the first post with my ongoing stuff pretty soon.

Pierate

Quick update of what's going on before i go to bed



I might draw some more silhouettes, depends on how I feel about them tomorrow and, ofcourse, any comments I might receive

edit: Updated with some more silhouettes, this time more halberd like after a chat with Bronto Thunder, so thanks for that once again.

Funny how your staff looks really close to the thing ike_ike posted a while ago


And we were doing it too

Jalcober

What are you talking about. They look nothing alike.
Dont get all defensive about your model that isn't even that good.

Pierate

While I can see the similarites, the only thing I would say looks close is the bottom piece, I apologize about that as it was definately unintentional. If you want I could pull it from the workshop and change that part?

Hawf defense force, assemble!!

They share bunch of design choices, but we sorted that out.

Vlad relax, all of those three staffs mentioned here are similar to default keeper weapon:

I would totally agree with you if designs that you have shown were super original, but they are not, they are just slightly modified versions of original weapon. All three staffs has almost the same handle, and diagonal spikes on top of roundish base.

If your weapon would be wooden Gandalf like staff with crystal on top and someone would make something similar, that maybe you should have been mad, or maybe both off you just watched LOTR... you never know
Anyway its a funny feeling when you think about doing something and someone else shows this done few days later...

Pierate

So, Got some proper work done on my Centaur weapon, here is the concept I ended up going with:


Sorry about all the wasted space there.

Anyway, here's my progress on the highpoly so far:



I will be doing some sculpting on this to add wear, tear and damage.

BearsAremajestic

Is this hammer gonna go with some sort of set or it's just a solo wep? Looks pretty good so far. Clean,simple and still catches the eye.

Hawt Koffee

I really love that doom set, the KOTL staff and the Centaur axe so far keep it up!

also Vlad I don't know what I've done to make you call out my name in a thread I wasn't even in before you made that comment but please keep it out of other people's threads, however I will have to agree with Jalcober on this one.

Pierate

Thanks guys. Bears, It's a solo weapon, probably won't be doing any sets for a while.

also:



Unfortunately the quality isn't quite so great ingame, this was also my first try with xNormal and I like it a lot, great program.

Hawt Koffee

fantastic sculpt

AndrewHelenek

cause I'm late.

I really like Centaur so I am curious to see how your axe turns out, good job!

Pierate

So, lotsa progress has been made that I have not shown here for reasons I do not know myself. But yeah, it's pretty close to being done:



Unlit for those who wants to see the texture:


Just want to know what people think and make sure there's nothing I want to change before I submit it

Oh and credits to Snader for the name, hopefully there aren't any weapons with similiar names.

bewsii

This is nice. I like it.

Konras

I like it allot, but you got there to many golden/yellow bolts in my opinion.
It looks fantastic up close, but from a distance they can be problematic.
I think you can erase some of them, and maybe make one bigger like so:

Maybe that will help you somehow, however i am not a great painter haha

Pierate

I feel you Konras, I've had similiar thoughts aswell, I'll have a play around with it.

Thanks guys.


edit: Compromised a bit and here's what I came up with, might tweak the color of the bolts a bit aswell:

Pierate

Alright, Bradwarden's Beheader has been submitted:

BrontoThunder

Good job, dude! Turned out great!

Pierate

Started working on a Slardar weapon a few days ago, basically drew this concept:



And then nothing really happened until yesterday where I made the highpoly and I'm pretty satisfied with it so I'll be moving onto lowpoly real soon:



I've got a few other things kinda in the works aswell so there's more to come after this.

Hawt Koffee

looks fantastic

BrontoThunder

Looking good, man!

Pierate

Just submitted this:

Nice weapons and good details but from the game camera these nice fine details are almost gone. Have you ever tried to make them exaggerated so that they can be better noticeable from the game view?
