CWolf's FreeDoom workshop (textures, sprites, something else)

Did green one.Looks better imo.

I totally missed your previous post with the new Deadflare. It looks cool, and I like the green one even better. Great job!

BTW, did your backpack get submitted into the project?

Thanks.

No, backpack was submitted but denied.

Alright, I might to do full spritesheet on next week, I think?

Next rotation is much more easy.

That's a pretty awesome monster design I should say!

IDK. Although the green has a better flame color, it looks "flat" (the flame I mean). The older one looked more like the flame was all around the skull, while the green one looks likes the flame is behind it.

But that's just me.

I quite like the green flames. Gives it a will-o-the-wisp look, while the skull itself look ambiguously alien, so it fits nicely with both Doom and Freedoom design wise.

Note that the lost soul is fullbright, so there really ought to be flames to justify that. Not nearly as much as what was shown, but some for sure.

Really cool monster design, btw.

Ye I know about fullbright. I'll do less of fire this time, but better in quality.

PS: AW SHIT 100th post.

Now HowToPost101. Huh...

You're focusing too much on the shapes of the individual lumps or stones and not enough on the whole shape. Right now it looks like a flat arrangement of rocks because of that, and while you did clean it up a lot, it's still hard to see what it is.



A quick approximation of what I think the overall shape is. Compare the readability.

You could still go for a stony look if you wanted, perhaps by adding glowing cracks on the surface instead of deep gaps between lumps. Also, centre your light.

I kind of like the old one better, with moar flames. It reminds me of the Infernal from Warcraft III a bit.

torridgristle, interesting how you transformed CWolf's design into something that has a very different appearance.

But I still like the old version. I think it gets across the idea of very intense flame quite well, as if the high temperature of the air around the monster slightly distorts the shape of its appearance. (Compare this to how the Infernal is portrayed in the Warcraft III intro cinematic.)

Oh, right... pretty close, actually. :D

Don't worry, You'll see fire. I need to re-do it. But first, I need to finish the skull's rotation and death sprites.

this is why I want to learn 3d. Because of shitworking on mostly each individual sprite.

So now I need to polish everything and make fire.

is possible to we see a screenshot of him in game? dont need to be all angles i'm only wanting to see him.

Sure, don't you worry. =)

EDIT: Another design change
Before:


After:

The new one looks more like a robot. Actually it reminded me a bit of Cy-Kill from Challenge of the GoBots.

Well, maybe

That is sick CWolf!

But what's happening in the attack frames? Is its forehead opening up?

I love this new design though. Seems robotic, and yet just doesn't seem like one at the same time.

- shape almost reworked, I'll start work on fire soon

Bump

The third frame doesn't make sense (the backside) why is are tusks facing in the other direction?

bump... haven't worked on this thing too long.

another update.

I like it, much better than the old one.

It reminds me of the Necrons from Warhammer 40K, which is strange since I hate Warhammer.

That is awesome, though the fire in the 3rd and 4th frames seem to be a bit too much.

Time has come guys.
They give me 2weeks for pack all stuff that may be need. Army awaits.

I gave flare's. PSD to Blastfrog so don't you worry.
