Post by: MrMister on September 05, 2004, 09:41:00 PM: I still need help people, I need it to look as professional as possible. Here's what it looks like now:

again, i must say no comment, because i dont have the slightest clue what a "durahan" is. but im guessing, its a knight dude, judging by the pictures. but, you want my opinion on what to do? the leg parts, before the boots, dont look good, due to lack of color. ill i see is brown blocks, with darker brown dots, upper body part, before the upper body armor, is similar, might wanna put a little more effort into those parts, meaning color, design, etc.. but that might be what "it" actually looks, i dont know. second, again i must say, my opinion doesnt matter because i dont know what this thing looks like, or actually is, but i just plainly dont like those blade thingies, coming from the hands. to me, it looks like he's holding some piece of plastic, or paper or something.

not trying to be harsh or anything, but you wanted my opinion. and third or fourth time, my opinion might not matter much, cuz that might be what that thing looks like anyway. other than that, it looks fine to me.

Post by: MrMister on September 06, 2004, 09:31:54 PM: That isn't really criticizing, it's telling me what's wrong, which I appreciate, but the point is telling me how to fix it. I know the blades look bad but I have no clue how to fix it.
A Durahan is a soul inside of a suit of armour, which should be fairly obvious.
Also, how can you say 'no comment' and then write a paragraph commenting on it?

Post by: VahnGrave on September 07, 2004, 08:07:10 PM: It looks empty, it might be the fact the its durahan, but,I don't know, it might just need shading.There's just something missing.like i said, it may just be becaus ethere is no body parts to durahan.....I don't know, try shading once your all finished

Post by: GhostClown on September 07, 2004, 08:38:13 PM: Well, one thing you might want to add is some texture to some of his parts, this can be done with some miner shading.
Title:
Post by: MrMister on September 07, 2004, 09:41:53 PM: Added some more shading, changed his swords, soul thingy, and midsection. Also changed up his posture to be more 'knight-like' and added shoulder plates.
Edit: Oops, noticed the flippy helmet on the last frame. Fixed it though.

Post by: GhostClown on September 07, 2004, 10:00:23 PM: Yeah, that looks alot better, but I have noticd, the feet, is there anyway you can point them or somthing?

Post by: oooog on September 07, 2004, 11:05:44 PM: mr.mister, obviously you dont know me very well. i type stuff, then completly forget what i type after im done. this often happens half way through my posts. so i had no idea i even posted that. second, when i post those types of messages, its mainly for everyone to take notice, and try to say the words im trying to say. i couldnt quite put the words together, so i made a post to see if anyone else could. (right now, i forgot what ive been typing, cept i remember saying i dont remember what i am typing, and often i just keep on typing, i dont know why, i just do) anyway, the courrent one looks much better, especially like the new swords. i can see nothing else that needs improvement.

Post by: MrMister on September 07, 2004, 11:29:23 PM: I appreciate your opinion. I'm probably just going to fix the boots and I'll be done that direction.
