Here is a concept for a courier-CNY theme up for grabs, i know it's a little late now with only about 2 weeks to go, and the design still have some problems against the poly limit/texture size/bones, so any comment/feedback is absolutely appreciated!

And if anyone is interested, please send me a message here or add me on steam. Thank you.

I liked the design but the fish cant be in flying mode only. It should be in waling mode too.

Chaos Prophet

nice courier's concept!

A smart rig can hide the fish during one mode, and make it way more apparent in another

I love the concept btw, I hope this finds the love it deserves before the deadline!!

cagdasx44

Heboltz but it would be a waste of a good fish.

quockhanhlk

Really happy to hear your opinions guys ^^
@cagdasx44: yeah it would be a waste but i cant really think of any way to fit it in the walking mode yet

PS: i'm starting to think that my courier will not gonna makes it to the surface, please Gandalf, show up and do your magic

The point wasn't about whether or not it would be smart, it was about the technical ability to do so.

Either way, sorry about clogging up your thread Deadman.

Reyne

Could the little man carry or drag the fish while walking? Looking at it, the scale is probably a bit off for something like that. I'm sure you can get something to work with it. Because it is a really good concept and it would be a shame for it to not get made CNY or not.

quockhanhlk

@Reyne: thank you for your opinion, i'll see what i can do ^^

It's a great news for me that im gonna work with Godzy and heboltz3 on the courier, hopefully we'll have it done before deadline !

Also here is one of my concept for Sven, if anyone is interested, just drop me a message here or via Steam, thank you! ^^

a warlock golem concept, maybe it's a little too far from dota 2 art style, but i really enjoyed it , contact me if you want to take it, thank you

Mhykiel

Great stuff.. I saw a comment about the fish flying all the time.. Maybe in non flying mode its fins can be like a coelacanth and walking, in flying mode more like a Asian carp with translucent floating wing like animation.

I also like the golem I think it is awesome! I would want it for my warlock

Automedic, to the rescue!

Ever feel like your fish is going to drown in the concept stage? Worry no more! I've got the perfect idea for walking mode. Let your kitchen god sit on the fish and both bounce their way ahead. Boing-boing-boing. Would definitely love it. And I think that's a means of transportation that no courier covered yet

heboltz3

Dango bounced, and everyone hated it

Don't worry! As animator on the courier project I will make him super zazzy.

Vayne4800

Love that warlock golem. Make it happen!

L0N3Y

That warlock ult look sic!
I would love to rig/animate it if it happens

quockhanhlk

@Mhykiel, @Automedic: thank you for your opinions, really appreciate them, i trust heboltz will do a great job with it

and thank you everyone for giving the love to my ridiculously golem haha xDD

Oh I didn't even know this courier, just looked him up. *dramatic music on* Well Dango wasn't as majestic as this fine, awe-inspiring specimen of fish, rather a fairly shabby-elephanty blob (no offense to the creator intended). I'm certain that with this courier's superior elegant style his bouncing movement would become a true paragon of grace and handsomeness.

I do in no way intend to sublimely influence you in a certain direction. May his earthbound fate lie well in your experienced hands so that he will bounce, crawl, bounce, walk or bounce his way directly into the store! *dramatic music off*

...bounce

Since we got like 5 more days to work, i decided to do a weapon for Lycan, here is the concept, and luckily i get to collab with Godzy again to make this little guy happen

quockhanhlk

Godzy, Sylei and i just finished the Lycan's claw for the CNY event, it's my first dota 2 item in the workshop ever! :D:D

A very simple weapon concept for LC



In collab with ultimatec on this one!

quockhanhlk

Please give us a vote if you like it thank you!

a WK axe, in collab with Godzy

a WK set, again, in collab with Godzy xD

BladeofEvilsBane

that WK set concept is really freakin sleek, I love the back's silhouette. That being said I think the cape would really benefit from some of the color green on his shoulder item, as well as on the top of the helm. somewhere to break up the vales a little more. Looking forward to seeing this!

Reyne

Looks awesome! I am really liking that set and I am excited to see it in game. The shoulder piece does remind me of omniknight a little. But I am sure that won't really matter.

Keep up the good work

Glyph GC

I'm in love with that cape on the WK set!

belkun

Wow, that set looks so badass! I agree with Blade, everything is really really sleek, but some extra colors and values could really help, like some green on the tips of his cape. Can't wait to see Godzy's amazing work on this one!

Sukotto

The helmet is freaking awesome! No sword though?

quockhanhlk

Thank you for the comments and suggestions guys, really really appreciate it, i'll see what i can do to improve the cape

@Sukotto: i ran out of ideas for the weapon when i finished the set, im working on it now

oh and one other thing, Godzy and i've just finished this axe for wk, with Shock helped us on the promo pic
please stop by and give us a vote if you like it, thank you

quockhanhlk

Another courier concept up for grabs, the main theme is based on Invoker - would love to hear your opinion on this one, and please drop me a message here or on steam to discuss if you're interested in it, thank you for your time

Spudnik

Humanoid couriers are always dangerous, because they're easy to confuse with player characters in the heat of battle. I'd suggest going with something a bit more abstract, like final fantasy's black mage in terms of proportions - small, low to the ground, not very humanoid in shape but you can guess there's a human beneath it all. Also, anatomy wise, I'd say you're safer going into the direction of thicker extremities for humanoids rather than thinner, thinner are usually reserved for more fantastical creatures.

To be honest that's what I saw when he posted this concept -- a tiny "blackmage" version of Invoker. His concept art lead me to believe this guy is pretty small and disproportionate. The biggest giveaway was how big the character's hand is. I think the design works pretty well as he intended it.

quockhanhlk

@spudnik: the image doesnt work for me-403 forbidden xD, anyway i see you point, tbh im a huge fan of those old school final fantasy games, and blackmage is pretty much the inspiration for this one. I have thought about this and imo with a small scale in size and that big hat covers almost everything (good thing or bad, im still not sure about this), i really dont think there're any problems misunderstanding it with the heroes

quockhanhlk

It has been a long while since i last post sth, surprise that this thread is not ded yet haha xD

so, here're my recent works

a batrider set for s4





worked with Godzy and Horse on this one, please consider giving us a vote if you like it, thank you ^^



a revision version of bel's dk concept ( requested by Godzy)



and finally a revision on my old wk concept, im stuck at the color phase atm, maybe'll just throw in some dark green/black in there...OR MAYBE PINK, EVERYBODY LOVES PINK!



as always, i'd love to hear your opinions, thank you for your time

Coyo.Te

now thats a bloody sick sk set! gj

hamstocks

i think some black would definitely look good for that set, can't wait to see it progress!
