PC-CSGO | Martian Revenge (Done)

nineteenss

Hey there, folks! Here's my W.I.P. topic for the "CS:GO Weapon Finish Contest". Here will be posted creating process of my AWP design.  

So now, let me introduce to you, my step by step process! There's not really much to say about that project. Maybe some lil comments over pictures time to time.

Workshop:
- http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=680641610

Sketchfab:

model

Work in Progress:

Step 1 (Started with fancy sketch, lol, based on my memories of the movie ("Mars Attacks"). You can see it on the left of the fisrt step. I choosed this guy(?!) because of the movie, the style that it was baded on... Just like 70-80's. So... Here we go.):


Step 2 (Ok, so i finished with line drawing and decided to color it with the reference placed on the left):


Step 3 (After few hours of shading we have this):


Step 4 (Time for AWP. About 9 PM. Trying to find the right colors. Still think that purple was really bad descision.):


Step 5 (Next day. I'm on a righttttt wayyyy to color.):


Step 6 (Adding more of those lines with shading in process,):


Step 7 (Added more cyan-like colors on the left and right sides of the weapon):


Step 8 (Drawing details on scope.):


Step 9 (Looking for the right color on the metal parts of the weapon):


Step 10:


Final (Finishing up with the details and the base color. Doing it a little bit brighter.):


This is my first sking for CS:GO, so it was kinda hard to me in few aspects. Working with alpha channels was fun and nervous. But i got the needed effect at last .

Looks really good dude! awesome work and that "senpai" bit xD

Hey, how did you get your texture to go onto the scope? When I put my design into csgo workbench it doesn't show up (the axis are all on 0 and the wear type too). With all this off the skin is still scratched and the scope still doesn't have the skin I made on it.

P.S. this skin you made looks AMAZING!

If u'll make alpha channel in black, u will see your textures on your weapon without scratches. But to see them with wear type, u'd need to do some tweaks with lighter colors, such as gray, or something darker.

Here's an example of mine:

Hi Wolfiie, in photoshop (in your targa document) click on the 'Channels' tab on the right, then at the bottom click on the new layer button (looks like a piece of paper with the corner folded over). This new layer should automatically be called 'Alpha 1'. Save As a Targa and make sure 'Alpha Channels' is ticked. Then in VTF Edit use the DXT5 format in both of the boxes at the top. This new VTF file should now show your design on the scope and other parts of the gun not showing atm.

I would say that it's a bit too much for a restricted tier weapon, but it looks dope !

Thaaaaaanks! It was my first thought, but then i decided to use Photoshop. Just made bigger resolution for the sketch, lol.

The idea was not about when it released, mate I took the style it came with. It looks just like sci-fi that starts from 60's and end's in 80's. So i thought it can be nice and fun
