[Showoff] Two Minor Voidwalker Reskins

[Aegan]

After having learned the basics of reskinning, I decided to mess around with the Voidwalker a bit, since I'm a little tired of the same ol' blueberry. These are my first ever attempts at reskinning, so I'm looking for honest (constructive!) criticism.

My first project was nothing too special or ambitious, I just wanted to change the bracers a bit, from gold/green to an "arcane" white/pink style.

The result:


The base of the "thumbs" has a white strip on it. Apparently I went a bit too far with the brush. I'm probably going to fix it later.

My second attempt was a bit more ambitious than my first. Drawing inspiration from the current expansion, I decided to try making a "plagued" skin for the voidwalker, using the most nasty shades of green and red you could imagine. It ended up looking more like someone vomited on your minion.

The result:


I also did this same body skin with the white/pink bracers from the first pic, because white/pink/vomit color schemes are the new black.



After those two reskins, I got bored and wanted to do something more fun. Behold! The pink chicken of doom!



Thoughts/opinions anyone?

Also, I'll release these if anyone's interested. I'm not expecting any overwhelming demand for a release, but you never know.

Holy ****! Please don't make the Chicken kill me!
I like the blue one. The 2nd one looks like barf.

The 2nd one looks like barf.

I remember saying that :P

I want to do a whole series of different colored Voidwalkers. Orange, Red, Yellow, Silver, maybe even a green one with "$$$" all over him. Y'know, for goblin warlocks

Whether or not I do them both with and without the white bracers is still up in the air. I really love those things, but I'm still an amateur at this reskinning stuff, so it takes me a lot longer to do something like that as opposed to an expert who can do it while AFK. Without even turning their monitor on.

If you're just recoloring from one color to another, PS has a nifty little recoloring tool to help you with that (if you're not already using it :P)

Its nice to see something get done anyway, great effort.

[Galinda]

These are very nice for a first attempt, it would be nice to see you work on other minions though, such as the felguard.

wow very nice! how about a black with purple/red eyes to really fit in with the felhunter/felguard/succ and lock theme.

Shouldn't be too hard. Might have to settle for just a REALLY dark red/blue however, since a solid-color jet black makes it appear as if there was a problem with skinning. I'll also need to find the voidwalker's eye glow file.

If I figure it out, I may get a bit more detailed with the VWs face a bit, try to make it resemble the lock T10 mask

[Tocasiar]

Haha, awesome! I really like the face of the vomited one, how that one eye is bigger and stuff xD

[Aegan]

Totally unintentional, was just the angle that I took the screenshot at. VW eyes do that, it just goes so fast that we see it as a stream of fire/smoke/unidentifiable glowy junk
