The remake looks a lot better already!
I would suggest using the vertical channel from normal map for baked lighting and applying a top-down gradient to the weapon overall. You could also lighten up the sharp part of the blade to show that it is shiny-and-sharpened and is used for cutting opponents down.
Also try to not make the scratches on the weapon totally random. Think about where the weapon will be used and which parts will get worn out and place them there.

Thanks for the feedback.

Van Hauss · Apr 2015

Lighting adjustments.

ShorkGamer · Apr 2015

The previous version looked better in my opinion.

Van Hauss · Apr 2015

Hmm, I still love the previous design but it worked a lot better for the size at loadout screen than in game, so it definitely had to change. I designed with the polycount limitation this time around as well, since a lot of those nice curves in the old concept got lost in translation.

ShorkGamer · Apr 2015

No, I mean the lighting on the weapon. :-)

Pipotchi · Apr 2015

the changes to the lighting are good imo, it follows the lighting suggested by valve with a top down gradient and has more focus on the tip of the weapon and the bottom end of the weapon looks much better being more muted

Swaggernaut · Apr 2015

I feel that the black stripes on the weapon are a bit too drastic, I understand that you are trying to show that there is an indent on the blade itself, but try to use a more subtle grey color rather than a very dark grey, mostly because I feel that the black on the blade just contrasts too much. But I love your sculpt though, looks really nice! Keep going!

Baddcog · Apr 2015

You could also just use dark strips on the metalness mask and get the same results, while keeping the blade almost uniform color.

Van Hauss · Apr 2015

Thanks for the feedback, now that i look at it, it's a little too out of place to the rest of the weapon but i did have an intention to keep it a different colour, rather than just an indent.

Van Hauss · Apr 2015

Minor tweaks; Contrast cleanup to bring it closer to legion, reduced seration as it was creating too much "business" on the overall feel.

Swaggernaut · Apr 2015

Nice, looks great now!

Van Hauss · May 2015

Gauntlets.
It took a bit to be free enough to continue but here's the next part. I had to turn down some details because it was creating too much visual noise.

Van Hauss · May 2015

Shoulders,
Will need to rework polearm handle colour, and it's blending with the claws too much.

Van Hauss · May 2015

Alright, here's the helm. That was definitely challenging.

Van Hauss · Jun 2015

Alright banners completed. Now for a bit of relaxing time painting up a wallpaper.

Swaggernaut · Jun 2015

Came out great!, but the feathers on the back seem a bit too dark

Van Hauss · Jun 2015

Van Hauss · Jun 2015

Rebalancing.

Swaggernaut · Jun 2015

Yeah /I think it looks better now

Looks great! but the shader mask could be a lot better !

Van Hauss · Feb 2016

Hi all, finished my studies, got a new job, time to keep going with a new set

. This time I will be doing a collab with the amazing Haryarti

I had to modify the proportions a bit to fit the current model

Image: https://us.v-cdn.net/5021068/uploads/editor/gz/yx0imm0uahl2.jpg

and I've finished the sculpting already

Did a quick base in MD for the clothes

and sculpted that up

I've started and mostly completed the bow already, I just need to fine tune the bowstring to give it a thinner look.

At some point I will revisit my legion commander skin as I feel much better than I was 6 months ago when I made it

if you have any feedback feel free to post it.

I made a few items and slowly chipping away at it but I haven't updated the thread, so here they are. The head, back (which is the dress) and shoulder slots. Took a long while specially with the head piece since I remade it three times over as I wasn't satisfied with the quality of the first two.

Sharc · Mar 2016

Looks pretty awesome, keep up the good work!
