I need to write up a proper post for this, but here's the long and short

Dota 2, much like TF2, has it's own Steam Workshop, complete with in-game compiler and resources for all the heroes who can be modded/cosmeticifieid. Yes, that's a word now.

Valve has compiled a rather nice[URL="http://www.dota2.com/workshop/"] resources page for Dota 2, available HERE[/URL].

Spudnik over at Polycount has a set of concept sheets, [URL="http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=124501"]featuring the heroes stripped down to their base models.[/URL]

Feel free to use this thread as a WIP thread, somewhere to link your finished creations, etc.

Anyone think we need a new banner? Maybe featuring the Blacksmith guy?

Could you take a shot with the regular camera angle ? I'm worried it looks visually unappealing from a top view.

[Solution]

This new in-game test feature makes it a ton easier to... well test in-game.

[Maruhai]

Yeah, it doesn't look as visually appealing as the other heads ...
The base one has darker marks.
The Voidkeeper one has the gem thing.
The Bindings of the Rift has, well, the bindings.
And the Amalgamate one has crystal parts.

This one just looks bland from a top view, I hope you get what I mean.

For my first content post to the new thread here is a video of my new set in motion:

Just to show people how the slime drips look in motion.

For those in the previous thread thinking the jugg mask was a DK shield, we actually tried it, but the tribal designs just weren't working well with DK so we went with the original concept.

First attempt at modeling something.

Made an alchemist off hand weapon.

[Unisath]

It needs to be smaller if you were to go through with that. It actually looks great from the top view, and pretty good in the loadout screen.

[Ghosevil]

That's really nice! Perhaps trim the dragon's beard and curve the ears so he has room to see?

[URL="http://p3d.in/9QUi4/wireonsmooth+spin"]Would anybody be willing to texture this?[/URL]

[Pocket Medic]

[QUOTE=Mech Bgum;40386840]I dont know man, it looks really off the character (wooden shield) and colors are also a bit off (too dark).
Could make it a back item for juggernaut perhaps?[/QUOTE]

It was [I]going[/I] to be a face item for Jugger.

[Malvodion]

You could try to rework the textures and turn it into an elaborated metalic shield.

It already [I]is[/I] a juggernaut mask XD : [url]http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=140590982&tscn=1366699327[/url]

Recap from the other closed thread: A bunch of people have asked me to try it as a DK shield, because the shapes are really nice/kindof a dragon face/the color choice, but I said that while that's all true the tribal designs are just too juggernaut-y to work as a DK shield imo, we'd need to re-sculpt it without those. People wanted to see it tried on DK though so here we go XD. Maybe robo and I will make something similar from the ground up as a DK shield in the near future?

[TrannyAlert]

It needs to be metal, it looks like wood.

Made a test animation for the staff. Works in the item preview and loadout page, but it goes static ingame.

(look at head)

[Jetamo]

Can't be done until the hero has officially been broken up for Workshop support.

[editline]23rd April 2013[/editline]

Also regarding the concept: Looks... interesting, but it's highly likely the entire head will be replaceable, ala Faceless Void.

[Bordey]

I will be disappointed if Valve doesn't make Bane's old head as a cosmetic item.

BANE HEAD OH GOD WHAT

(look at head)[/QUOTE]

Oh god why

[ChocoCoach]

Didn't a dude here make an undying ward? cause some other dude did the exact same thing, except worse [url]http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=139406155&searchtext=[/url]

[Bordey]

To me the other Undying ward looks just fine. I don't really know which one I like more, both are neat. Of course yours was posted far earlier, probably long before he even started working on his (maybe even before he got the idea, maybe even got the idea from you) so I understand how you feel.

[Gooblin]

I drew up this idea I had for a courier. I haven't decided on any colors yet, but I thought I would post it here to see what people thought, or if anyone was interested in modeling it.

[BuffaloBill]

If properly executed, that could be the most glorious courier so far

are the Slash similarities unintentional

[Quinnjdq]

I don't see it.

[Frump]

I've updated the set (mainly the armor plates and some material stuff) and rebooted the presentation. Makes quite a big difference, doesn't look pre-school anymore.

Vote if you like because the workshop went weird this week and it's been buried. D:
