The slow grafix revamp

[Meridian]

#8 is absolutely frikin' BEST... don't touch her!

[Bloax]

Ok Meridian I'll promise Father Bloaxmas will bring a Miku-like just for you.

Posts Merged - Dioxine

Oh and before I start my mad scientist business - is the revenant armor a midgame, late-midgame or lategame armor?
It's important because of reasons.

[Dioxine]

Well do keep in mind that I literally only just started doing this shit a couple of days ago, so obviously I'm going to cover my own preferences first.
I do find it funny that you mention that they lack character, since I find that the original ones are rather lifeless. But perhaps that's just a consequence of me generally not liking the originals and how they look, since I do see something in some of them.

Yeah that pretty much sums it up - your preferences first, others later. I know how it works Lifeless, maybe, but at least varied instead of alike So I'm not judging yet, just sayin'

I'm sure there are neat (relatively) short-haired haircuts but I just haven't been able to think of any in my discorded mind.
Sounds like a PM with images of these is in order, since I don't exactly watch things, even if I do know a select few of the mentioned ones.

Do eet. I mean, think about short haircuts too or you'll have no chance of becoming an experienced pervert! So sayeth me.
I will send you a PM once I get myself to do it, I could say JFGI, but what, this will probably allow me to waste some hours watching my favorite characters.

I'll nuke the belt from orbit, though I may sneak it in a couple among a lot of variants. (Since let's be honest, it's starting to look like there will be a lot of variants.)

If you're up to it, go ahead, I gave up on versions long time ago. I was tough maybe for the first 100 paperdolls, but there's over 20 times more than that...

@Revenat armor:
Solid mid-game armor, usually mid-midgame. Keep in mind it takes 80 or so hours of gameplay to get into serious midgame, though

[Bloax]

Right, I won't go full retard yet, then.


Here's a little WIP shot (everything from the waist down isn't done yet) just to tease you.

Not necessarily polished to absurdity, either. It's just easier for me to work that way.

[Dioxine]

Woow. Kewl. I love the chem injector and cyborg arms, and overall lighter-than-heavier feel (Revenant is a light-medium armor). But where's chest armor? I'll see how it looks when finished, though. If you want to keep cleavage shown, maybe some hints of circuitry on the chest to suggest under-skin armoring?

[DracoGriffin]

My poor Revenant armor.

I always viewed Revenant armor more as the new Bain costume (rather than the old/cartoon version), but with the metal armor enhanced further.

I'll withhold comment until near final rather than dissuade creativity so early.

[Dioxine]

Don't worry Draco, I don't intend to send my designs to the void-null

So, character references:

I think I went full retard anyhow. Fuck.

I'm pretty sure this has taken well over five hours to do, phew.

[Dioxine]

Dark Eldar style, no doubt... Only with less spikes. Something is wrong with the feet, too - like they were seen from above instead from front.

[Bloax]

Yeah, the boots were a fucking nightmare and I need to redo them, probably tomorrow though since midnight has already shown its ugly face almost an hour ago.


looks fucking great (especially with this extra depth overlay i did) otherwise though

[Dioxine]

Yeah, definitely looks great, the blue color is the best for it (well, especially since you have 64 shades of blue, a ton compared to other colors). One more detail that stands out a little bad - these "shorts". How about cutting the lower part of the "shorts" out altogether, making the armor a high-cut on the thighs, and thus slimming the whole character (and showing a bit more legs). Unless you tried and it looks horribad, that is, but you can always solve the problem with boring thighs by adding more blue wiring or something... Also maybe a red pixel or two somewhere to make the whole thing even more snazzy?

early game, well into midgame, are we seeing my plan yet? :^)

Now the question is just "how retarded can it get?"..

[Dioxine]

Now the question is just "how retarded can it get?"..

That's simple - ridiculous has always been the answer, since the beginning.

[Bloax]

Not much new today, although by pure chance and someone's fucked up display settings, a mysterious stranger has sneaked in among the ranks;

* Hair style might change

[Bloax]

Things have been moving rather slowly since I've been recovering from pulling a 42-hour streak for the sake of delivering some huge-ass assignment for school.

I did rip off some hairdos today though;


And before I got to that I made me some new brushes that turned out to be a huge success;

Here are the photoshop .abr files for them.
(2 Unique brushes to be exact, one big one, one smaller and sharper, third one is just the first one @ 13px and the fourth one is the same at 4px for convenience.)
