@ScoobyDoofus: You shouldn't think like that. I don't think you suck. If you think you suck, you will only feel worse. Try to look at the bright side of things, like:
"This skin may not be finished yet, but I will complete it."
"While I'm working on this skin I'm practicing my texturing skills. Because of that, I will be able to make my next skin faster and/or better than this one. If I continue to do this, I will become better all the time."
Besides, I really like your skin so far. It's very cute and her face is beautiful. You should be proud of it; you made it, it's your own creation.
BTW, if you suck, I suck aswell. I don't think I suck, I try to improve my skills.
I'm really an egomaniac normally, but my self-depricating humor is my way of keeping that ego in check! (just ask anybody who met me in Austin)
I think it looks nice as well. I just get hung up on ideas moreso than painting/rendering well. I'll paint and re-paint and re-paint an area of a texture sheet 4-5 times before I'm happy with the design, even if the painting is good.
so any more updates? is this getting imported soon?
hate to see such a cool effort be ignored.
I may find time this weekend to finish my texture after some mod work.
OOh finnaly pior makes an update, really nice as usual but maybe the hair is little too bright and pulls too much attention away from the oh-so-cute-face?
nice work so far pior
saturation looks like. u might need to get some darkness in a
few areas to make certain things pop out more or get into the
background as said before.
It looks very nice Pior. Great job. My only complaint, and this might have been a conscious choice of yours, is that there seems to be too many open areas of flat color, and the only shading happens on the extreme areas of direction change. Its pretty sucessful, but I think I prefer the boot, where everything has at least a little shading to show the volume better.
Hehe pior likey the freckled ladies. Some damn nice texturing work here, I wish I could jump in but I lack Max skills (shall work on that in my spare time...)
Poop, yeah it was a kind of choice, I wanted to go for simplicity and for plain colors. But I feel like she *might* need some extra details like OldManFunks, which are simple yet detailled... Well I'd say that my version is more of a RTS asset then
Sundance, WHATS WRONG WITH THAT ?
Toast, well she's a tough elf girl let's say
Rage, please just jump in! You don't need Max skills for this exercise, just good old 3dexploration and any paintpackage!
i always enjoy seeing your work my man
the design is very good
very effective
i think some areas, like the dark boot "frame", look remarkably more detailed than others
Awesome job Scoobles. I am with shotgun in that it doesn't quite look as tight as it could be. Alot of areas look a bit blurry. My favorate area is the leg from the knee down. there is some great contrast going on there. Also your blacks seem to be a weak spot. the leather on her side just looks like white lines, and all the belts seem to be a light grey that doesnt respond much to light. Overall I really dig the soft shading and the colors, would just like to see it given that last bit of OOmph.

Only crit i have is to maybe tone down the harshness of her cheeks, the shadow isnt subtle enough.

No fret. I'll be get it going in a couple more weeks.
It somehow looks like a tribute to Ruz... Which is fair since I love his works I might need to desaturate the colors a little, not sure.
Can't wait for a released pack!

Mop Jeff and B1llou, the head was great fun in the making. Rather quick to do too... Heads are fun
Toom and Qube, I think see what you mean. I guess I need to take a break away from her to really see these issues tho...
But besides that its more or less done
Skinning this little model was a great side project... Any plans for a released pack?
And the texture --

Thanks!
