Help needed to start :D
polycounter lvl 8
Hi polycounters !
Would like to ask some questions regarding creating a whole new outlook for a certain hero in Dota2.
1) What are some of the things that I should look out for ? e.g the overall proportion must be the same for the rig to work... etc
2) Is there a way to test out whether the character that I create could be use in the game ? like doesnt look awkward when casting spells.
Thanks and looking forward to join the workshop !

Basically you want to make items that would fit the hero, and they should be in similar color ranges so they are easy to recognize in game.
You can make couriers and wards also, but I don't know of anyone getting a new hero in game. I think Valve artists like to do that themselves.
Actually I was planning to recreate a hero in a totally new image.
But not sure whether is it done-able due to all the technical stuffs.
If you are doing it for fanart/portfolio stuff. Go for it my dude.
