Patriotic Canadian Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 here are a few skins i've been tinkering with for LF's pack, and i've posted most in ROR mj i know, but i just wanna start a general skinning thread first off... the old jurrasic attack! added a bit of blood to the beak, im still tinkering with contrast to bring out the scales more also, i redid the slashes under the eyes, i think they look better, not sure though still tampering with sting. headlights need work next, Barbarian! now, Wrenchead! now, Iceman. for TJ and Jetix so... your turn! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquidfire215 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 I like the idea but lets make this your own showoff thread. Since a few already have their own threads already. Ill make a show your projects thread soon. First of all let me start by saying these are a huge improvement over your first batch of skins you made over at rormj. One this you could do to improve the quality of your skins would be using vectors. This would eliminate the choppy/blocky flames. Also once you get used to the truck is much easier to skin. I don't know if you have noticed but the actual usable part of the skin is smaller than what is shown in the image. Resizing some of these skins would help the appearance as well. The last thing is using high res decals/ if you cannont find them recreate them instead of using a small decal that will pixelate. At least if you attempt to remake it you will have something that has solid lines and doesn't pixelate on the edge. Just my 2 cents. You have come along way since the first skin you posted. You might wanna try slowing down and refining 1 skin at a time instead of working on 10 skins at once. The reception you get over a well thought out well planned skin is worth the extra time.

Patriotic Canadian Posted September 30, 2010 Author Share Posted September 30, 2010 most of these were made before the pack actually came out, so i never had time to really notice the space that was mapped. and thanks, im still up for learning how to copy trucks BTW, i would love to expand my sphere of ignorance and what logos are pixilated? just wondering Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Graves Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 The flames on Jetix are a little blocky, looks like you just copied an image and slapped it on there. Your getting a lot better tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RKM Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Quality, not quantity. I do agree with Liquid, you have improved quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cman23 Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 Thanks, it looks even better with the sandstorm sky because it isnt so reflective. I threw another skin together since I was bored. Turned out pretty well, very simple. However I cant get the pics up, it wont let me use the uploader on the reply tools or the image link to photobucket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
