Quick-Crit 2008-2009

D: chains it looks really flat. Also, if this is h3mt's elite, shouldn't the elite look like halo 3's elite? Don't put so much detail in one place, it distracts the eye, and frankly, it looks like the elite used a torch to burn a maze design into his helmet. I'm expecting to see a mouse running around in there somewhere looking for the cheese. I can appreciate the attempt at detailing, and maybe it does look good on the unwrap, but really the details your adding are things that should be modeled in, not skinned on. Elites usually keep it clean , so the grime and chipped paint you added don't really fit. A few light burns or scratches might look ok, but this doesn't really look right to me.


E: also don't forget your promises!

Fine, screw it.

Model, Rig, and Sounds aren't mine, but I wanted to animate something that WASN'T Halo, and I found these things. Crit, comments are welcome. Also, some parts are snappy and have been fixed.

These aren't humans. They're Elites. They are a race of fiercly proud warriors with longstanding traditions and and an overly stuffy, vain bearing. I strongly doubt you would find their armour in anything less than immaculate condition, with the exception of battle damage which would be repaired immediately after the cessation of hostilities.

Not the attitude to take, sonny.

e/ mag tap looks more like a grip tap, might want to do something about that

Shameless bump

Working with this thing is a pain, the way the skin stretches in some places and just plain doesn't show in others pisses me off. In the end the only real advantage of redoing the entire receiver and upper heatshield was being able to say I did the bastard myself. :|

jesus fuckign christ, what kind of a little girl are you, you fucking crybaby.
boohoo, they is not say nice things!

go sit in a corner and cry yourself into a fucking dehydration ffs.

Hmmm? You do not understand, I decided to ditch it to give it to someone who knew better. I am not a very good skinner, and I am not going to stubbornly do it when people say its wrong. I am not giving it up, I just need to learn a bit more before trying at it, and since I will not change overnight, it will keep the owner of this elite waiting, when someone else could skin it just as good, maybe even better. Sorry if it came off in the wrong form to you, but I am more laid back and when it doesn't work out, I either restart or just toss it out, not cry myself to hydration and never touch an unwrap again, sorry if you misunderstood.

Wow. You must not understand what criticism is. You cannot be babied through this. Take that fucking crit and use it. People actually give EFFORT to tell you what is wrong, and instead you trash it. I know, because I used to do that, but did you see that my work got about 25% better after I actually took the criticism?

Carbine skin by me. Model by nugget.

That's hot, but it might just be the lighting. Pic of just the diffuse please.
