some of the skins I've made/edited

[EvilGrins]

When I was trying to match the mask tone to the rest of the suit (Hydra skin top of the previous page) I needed to isolate the face elements so I could paste them back on the final mask.

So, I edited away everything but the face:


When I finally got the tone to match the rest of the suit, I pasted this onto it as a transparency... and they say MS Paint is useless!

Toyed around with a new masking project where I wanted to use a face-pasting after the fact, so I took the original face, and removed it while making a different background color:


That way I could drag that over any other face setup and make a new face-mask:


A handy thing if you happen to have templates for superhero type masks handy...

I've got Screenshots for Fun threads on a lot of forums, and in the one on the official UT forum someone posted this:


I've shared this before, makes most people laugh their asses off... but hopeful soul that I am, I did an image search on it hoping to find more edits of stuff made by whoever made that.

That led me to here · https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1061781&page=35

Those unfamiliar, facepunch is a forum for multiple kinds of 1st person shooters... and violent games in general. Gotta set an account up there someday, but in the meantime I now have these:


Hoping to use at least 1 of those for an upcoming skinning project.

At least he was active on our forum for a wile... search.php?keywords=&terms=all&author=Skerion&sc=1&sf=all&sr=posts&sk=t&sd=d&st=0&ch=300&t=0&submit=Search ...you can try to PM him.

[EvilGrins]

you can try to PM him.

Sent him one, though it occurs to me now that since I found him originally on the official UT forum that might be the better place to try and reach out to the guy.

The question is, which UT.

Back when Dragon first popped up, like many players new to forums, he decided to make his own to better facilitate his own games. However the forum he set up eventually fell apart, and the one he made to replace it didn't last much longer.

These'd be them:

In the middle of all that he requested I edit him skins/models specific to his theme, all to use his logo on them. To be clear, I cannot create models but I can edit skins for them like I can for just about everything else.

Edited him a Dragon Ninja but I lost it shortly after I sent it to him. A few years later, and 2 weekends ago, I found it:



Combination of the Reptal Soldier & BloodKnight skins for the Male Soldier.

Since Dragon isn't out and about anymore, I've been re-editing it for not specific to him:


It's not quite done yet.

As a rule, I lean toward fandom content and I'm constantly looking for potential skins.

Which is why I was thrilled with the uniform designs on The Orville.

Because the Male Soldier doesn't allow for team colors on the arms, their uniforms are ideal. Technically I'm ready to go on this but I ran into a small snag.

Two if you count their uniform color range is only Red, Blue, Green, & Orange.

Unlike Star Trek, the symbol on their uniforms isn't constant. It changes by uniform color... and I'm having a hard time finding sprites for those.

Guess I need to hit up some Orville forums for their smilies.
