OLD POST
Hey, so this is my first item (and first time animating) for Dota 2. I am looking for feedback. People have told me that the textures need some extra work, without able to pin point what needs to be improved more precisely, so I am kinda on hole not knowing how to get out.

Teh problem with textures, is that the dota 2 importer for wards rescales the textures to 256x256 which is quite low.

So, what can I do to improve the ward?

Thanks guys!

If your textures are larger you should do the resizing yourself, if I recall DOTA 2's compiler resizes very poorly.

So, do I just flatten the image in photoshop and resize it down? Or is there more to it?
