Sound Chaser - a lot of character there, love how they look on paper

Haven't posted here for a while, here's a sword I've done today :

this time a more exotic blade. (picture is realtime game model)

Vilhjalmr: might happen

Today's painting..took quite long, I could go on, but I felt sick of adding more and more hungry buggers

Shield Anvil Itkovian and his little group of Grey Swords - mercenaries hold against the army of hungry cannibal peasants called Tenescowri (from S.Erikson's books.)

Damn that is so awesome, really full of life.
well done Merlkir, best one from you yet

there are knocks there cause that's where you block other swords with.
ye I should definetly have added more scratches to the sharp side, but it's something I'll have to keep in mind for next time, cheers

a game sword, 380 tris.

El Duke: lovely piece, texturing really makes this character shines.
You got the shoulders a bit off, notice how their intesections with the arms is too high ... that's why the overhead shot looks better than the front view.

For future models - the collar intersection with the head is weird - I usually seperate the head from the rest of the body, so I have more control over the collar and head morphs.

Yeah I fonud it. I had to run around a bit though at the end to avoid those posionous giant newt/salamander things. Couldn't take them on at level 1.

Ah, what I did was open the gate, lure them to chase me - and then go back to the gate controls and close it on them.
The nice thing is you get acknowledged for thisl and get experience

Wow. Do those look like that in game?

Are they even for M&B?

Cheers Vilhjalmr
Ye those shots are realtime dx views, depending on the quality of the game engine in question they might look better or worse.

They weren't really made for M&B, but I might test them there as I'm kinda curious how they'd turn up
And here's something you might like, it's a helmet done by a guy named Ramseus for gameartisan comp a few days ago, which resembles your avatar

more shields from me.

Haha, lovely work Yoshi !
I love the fact the base of the house is more narrow than the top
Though it's a shame there aren't wooden planks on the edges of base like the rest of the house, as it look dull in comparison ...

Anyway, my turn - more shields !

that is awesome Merlkir, I agree about the blurriness of the fur throwing this off, but nevertheless cool stuff

Now I'm confused if they should be vertical or horizontal

I would suggest at least, if possible, turn the back plank texture 90 degrees.

thanks, but can you please clarify why ?

Adorno: Love the sketches, great gestures

I've been working on some shields ... I know the handles are wrong, unfortunately I've learned about it a bit too late, and changing them now isn't worth the effort ...

heh cool man, if you want any crits you know who to poke
are those friends from real life ?
