[QUOTE=Bordellimies;41919404]It looks like a sticker that has been put on a sword. I absolutely love the idea (Blade made out of molten coins? Kickass), but the lack of depth with the coins puts me off.[/QUOTE]
Hmm that's a tough problem to solve. It was tricky to figure out how to make it in the first place. [URL="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2184332/TempWip/2013-08-18_1644.png"]The original model has a decent amount of depth for each coin.[/URL] And if you imagine what it would be like to hammer out and melt a bunch of coins together into a sword it would be a lot flatter than I have it. I think one thing I could do is to add some detail to the blade edge that shows the layers of coins instead of having it be perfectly smooth.
Thanks for the feedback.
[B]ned_ballad:[/B] That would be cool. It already sort of synergizes with the last hit coin effect as is.
[B]Reno360:[/B] Thanks!
Is anyone interested in modelling this? I drew it up after realizing puck has no cosmetic items :(

I got a small suggestion: Why instead of a clean sharp edge you don't make a jagged, saw-like edge with the coins themself?
Something like this:

Dota coins are round. I didn't think it would be as recognizable using other shapes of coins. For the edge being jagged, it would be really cool, but there's not enough polygons to make it work. 350 triangles for the sword in-game.
Random idea; a skeletal hound courier (instead of a bloodhound it could be called a Bonehound, hur hur), styled after Skeleton King. Has potential for lot of charming animations; upon dying, collapses like SK when he uses his ult. Upon spawning, could arise out of the earth, dig up it's leg and carry it in it's mouth.

Almost finished my low poly... I need to learn how to do everything in Zbrush like some of you guys because you seem to have a much better workflow. I kinda hate how slow point pulling is in Maya.

It shouldn't carry a bag on its back- it should have its bag/pack/whatever inside its ribcage.
How would it fly, though?
[QUOTE=Talkbox;41864311]Gonna make a set for Slardar... Never done any weight painting before though.
EDIT: drew up a rough concept

Your concept armor makes me think in the Dark Seducers armor from the shivering isles.

Maybe with a pair of skeletal wings that look poorly fused onto the dog's back? Like there's bandaging and wrapping around where the dog's back and the wings connect.
I remember reading someone the models you download on the workshop requirements page are messed up, how can I get the correct ones?

Finally remembered about the Oglodi Grimoire, so I finally figured out how to get it to animate ingame.
WHY CAN'T I RATE IT MORE THAN 1 WINNER

maposhock infinite
also comes in [URL="http://puu.sh/4c58K.png"]blue[/URL], but that's boring
I like it in blue more. I don't think americana goes too well with Meepo.
Updated my old ward concept:
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/1fPgcRB.png[/IMG]
Wanted to draw version with dozen of smaller eyes in the hole are but it's too hard for me :V
Version with many smaller eyes could have volcano-like eruption rare animation which would throw out some eyes.
Edit:
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/TyQpoz8.png[/IMG]
You can either interpret it as blood or as lava. Or just make it disappear in your imagination (without it I couldn't make single eyes visible).
Now as I look at it, it reminds me of Healing Shrine form Diablo 2.
Has anyone tried making a Tentacle ward, like the ones from HL1 and the expansions, or has Valve still got their policy of not accepting items on the workshop made of copyrighted content?
Even the little eyestalks you find on Xen would be a nice idea, especially if there was some proximity-based animation that makes it hide, which seems unlikely to be added.
Idea, a 'solar system'/planet ward. A large eyeball with debris (think meteorites and space stuff) floating around it in orbit. The eyeball could have rings on it like Saturn has.
Might be cool.
How do I persrpective
[T]http://i.imgur.com/FGDnZgI.png[/T]
so for this year's Diretide, anyone thought about making a Jack-o-Lantern pumpkin type treant for Nature's Prophet. Little pumpkins with cut in faces that have tentacle like vines they use to crawl around.
Yea, it's kind of gimmicky, but I think it would work nice and would fit the style great if done well.
Here is some concept art for said idea totally not stolen from one of the guys behind MediEvil totally not honest!

MediEvil was a good game, I should replay it.
yea, exactly like that, but maybe not as tall and more leafy.
with pixelshoo started working on a warlock set, we need some feedback bout head and backpack slot.

Hmm the posts get merged automatically when i post another one, how to split em up?
it auto merges before 3 hours or something.
the hoods are nice, but some of them look a little dull without any pattern on them.
ah alright, ill have to wait then..
thanks, yea thats why i tried out couple of versions, maybe we'll combine some horns with patterns.
Im just gonna repost it here :D
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/hQ2YcS3.jpg?1[/IMG]
I feel that the bag with a hand or the spine/skull backpack item would fit the best for rest of the set, but I personally like the bull skull the most, the scrolls right to it second best.
As for hood, the horns or spikes would again go really well with the set, but personally I like the one with the one with runic letters on the orange strip.
Hey guys! Here is some progress on Heptapus courier
