Meridia, v1.09

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.

Oh, wait, is it just me, or are her breasts on the portrait (refer to previous remark ^) a bit blurry? Was the original Sylvanas like that?
Very minorly, and that's as a result of compression. You have no idea how much better Meridia's boobs compress than so many other skins. The normal sylvanas skin in-game is like 256kb because of lack of compression (It's Blizzard's game, why should they compress?), Meridia's skin is currently 28kb in-game with very minor detail loss, which is great.

I think the maces are a nice touch. The ranger model doesn't have any melee attack or whatever, but it fits her theme and it looks good in-game. Sometimes I think you guys try way too hard to find things wrong with the textures. :p

DEAR GOD.

I'd rather be shot several times with an arrow than 'cligupped' {Clig-Uped} by that bow.
That thing is a beast....can she like...puggasmack {Pug-a-smack} someone with that monster?
Riot Check someone with that thing....brain somebody...

Looks good all around.

Me likes. ^^

Are the arrows' ends in the quiver winged or something? It's a nice added touch.

Yes, actually, they are. Good observation, I'm glad you like it.

Skins seems ok but the ingame portrait seems a bit too dark.

Blizzard thought it would be intelligent to cloak the entire model in a thick shroud of black cloud particle emitters, and short of making her glow from radiation it won't ever be quite right in portrait.

That is really, really sexy.

But yeah... in the portrait her nose is like, wow. But it's okay, the rest of the model is beautiful, except for the ribcage. It's a bit unappealing, I think.

Or maybe I'm just being weird!... <_<

Very, very nice. I can't wait to read her story. And, like the others said, WOW. Those are huge breast.
