   Thanks, My only criticism is that much of the finer details you spend time refining in the sculpt don't translate that well into the game engine due to the texture and visual size. Those blue runes read quite well on the portrait shot but the runes around the gem itself are barely visible in the portrait and most of the…

   Yeah sculpting is probably my weaker suite right now. Here's the normal map and a idea of what the sculpt looks like: I'll probably read up more on defining volumes and tackle the high poly again. Thanks for the advice.

   @marul: I've definately had some trouble with both the reflecting light of the gems and the dark metal, the specular in the previous pic is also way off from what it will look like ingame. I'll work some more on those areas so thanks :)

   Hey Ross, do you have a normal map? your uvs are a lot better no then the previous version, but im not a fan of those lines if you want some suggestion, try to study the other models textures, like that PA hair, i think that one looks a lot like yours and on the highpoly try to work more with he volumes, try to define them…

   The set still needs a lot of tweaking (it has only black shaders for now, no alpha transparency, and the weighting is quite screwed up), but I would like some opinions on the textures. Im not really sure about the belt color, and the straps on the belt, arms and weapon, and that tusk bracer definately needs a rework. Im…

   I really like the belt and the cape on the carnival assassin, and the neck part is also neat. But if you dont mind, that orange color just doesnt fit. I would try a cold yellow, or bloodred instead. The problem is probably that PA is not really a colorful character, shes sort of blending in with that greyish teal and…

   @shellnut: Definetely red is not a good color for her also, unless it's in the context of a set. I think you should aim for a leathery color if you're not willing to use blue/green/gray.

   I started on a PA blade the other day, so I guess I'll join in on the competition =) . I'm still new to all this and will struggle to keep up with you lot, but I might have a go at a PA set if the blade goes well! (I've only done single weapons so far) Here's the model tested in game (just did lowpoly) A tip for her weapon…

   Looks great, but you should definitely change its color palette to match Phantom Assassin more. It's more in touch with Nyx Assassin right now.

    It definitely looks better, but i'm wondering about the scale. Is this for his head? if it's going to be that small in-game you might want to rethink a bit of the design work to get something visibly appealing at that scale.
