Brother Victor, 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.

I still think there's much work that could be done on this skin, there seems to be a little too much mix of color going on here and the cape is a bit too cluttered. I kind of don't want to force it down your gullet though, AR, we don't want to burn you out!

I did, though, but it was followed by you being so excited for him to get done! xD

I just think there may be a bit too much going on, too many colors fighting each other for dominance and some other stuff. It's hard to think of fixes for it, though, short of changing entire parts of the skin. That's mostly why these topics get posted in the first place. :p

I'd change/remove the lion on the cape, and the metal banding on it. That's what's "fighting" with the rest imo.

But generaly- this skin owns, lovely housing.

Nice skin, excellent details. He looks exhausted...

The only thing I have conflicts with are the steel horn things on the horse's head; it just doesn't look right (I would remove it, but I'm not you :P ).

I think we learnt from Sozen that nothing should be removed from the model, or it can cause a few... unwanted things.

yeah, we tried that option - it cuts out the tail. and plus, the horse looked odd without headgear :|

I just noticed, the lion on the back of his cape looks like he's about to puke~

I think a global simplification is in order, but I'm still working out the details. Also, the brown and red clash and blur with each other, could use some more differentiation. I think red and silver with the bronze is plenty color, brown might be overdoing it. (Forget what I said before) Also, the face just compresses ridiculously in-game, I can't even test him in single player without cringing at how much detail it loses. There's got to be something we can do for that.

The other thing that gets me is the leg guards. While cool, they become red blurs in-game and look absolutely ridiculous. That could use some adjustment as well, feel free to supply some ideas guys. My other concern is the brown horse. I can't get over how cool a red horse with a white mane could look. Get rid of the headgear and alpha out the top half of the horns (And thus tail), we'll fight with it as we get there, but it would be wicked sick if we could get them to actually look like ears or something and double as a stubby tail.

Just some initial thoughts, anyways. No rush, of course. :p
