The skins done by teh kay rawrr

This is where all random discussion about DoE goes. If it doesn't feel like it fits anywhere else but is still related to the map, this is the place to post it.

Tornne's sword vaguely resembles a lightsaber.

Her skins compress the best without virtually any detail loss, actually. Maltheron's skin, for example, takes up only 19kb of space in game.

Because that's just how it is, really. Honestly though, the sword is what is named the Black Lantern. The person is now just a conduit for the essence of the Black Lantern, the voidwalker, preserved inside of the sword. Besides, green is such a more saturated and alive color for a hero.

The current tornne skin(along with vela) is by far my second-favorite skin, and this makes it all the sweeter. I really like how extentuated kassar is, and new exuro is equally jaw-dropping.

I've never been able to get any smaller than 34kb, and that is from converting it to a TGA, then using the Blpaletter on it.
How do you accomplish this? I've tried starting with a 256 size skin and reducing it in photoshop, but that doesn't seem to work at all.

Thats pretty impressive, no wonder DoE remains under 2 mb.

About tornne, yea black would look somewhat dull. But I am biased of course, as green is my favorite color

Absolutely epic skins.

Just to let the world know, KR is currently the only skinner for DoE that is both reliable and consistently makes amazing art. I wish I could motivate Nirv or AR to like, do something. It's kind of sad, Nirv just PM'd me saying he was too busy to skin Parhelios. Well, now I have a hero and no skin for it, and KR shouldn't have to skin things she doesn't want to just to get things done.

Yea shes great, done alot of skins from the looks of things, and awesome ones they are indeed.
My favourite is still Genobee :D, but then again I love the blood effects.

I think the Warlock one however, doesnt quite come out 100% ingame, more specifically the portrait, seems very dark.
The picture thou is brilliant.
