Raven skull mask item that needs texturing and converting

[Moonwolf678]

ok, so I have a deal for you. If you can texture and convert this item i will make the item public for everyone! (believe me, you will love working on this) here is the download for the raven's skull mask! http://www.mediafire.com/?e04pu4ca14n37n9

and a picture for you! (did i do a good job meshing?) all of the feathers on the cheeks are parented to the skull.


there we go! any volunteers are welcome to start as soon as they have time!

I can texture it... but I can't convert it just yet...

you did a decent job- though I would cut down on the number of polys (that's what causes the game to lag) you have THOUSANDS. a normal mesh- even a 'complex' one would only be a few hundred links.

with your permision, I would like to edit the mesh, though I will not claim it as my own and will send the file (a .Obj file as I cannot use belnder very well). the reason I want to edit it? I have a real Crow's skull infront of me right now, and I am rather fond of details.

[Moonwolf678]

sure. do whatever you need to make it realistic and less laggy. you are free do edit the model too but could you keep the cheek feathers? those are a nice touch. thank you for volunteering!

oh and one more thing. the eye sockets need to be deep enough for your character's eyes and above and below them to show through. (or you can just make them transparent... any way is fine)

I reduced the poly by half- though it looked a little blocky- I then smothened it and vwalah- perfectly round mesh whith (hopefully) little lag.

I'm working on the UV texture right now.... it's going to be though- I'm not all that good at textureing, but 1. I love crows and have always thought of doing something like this. 2. I love to learn art/cgi stuffs.

[Moonwolf678]

cool! i'm glad you're making progress! keep up the good work!

here is the prev:



anything that needs to be added?

[Moonwolf678]

O...M...G... THAT IS AMAZING! now all you need to do is fit it onto a character!!! but can you make it for felines and canines? or when you said you couldn't convert it yet, did you mean you don't know how or things needed to be done?

[Goldchocobo]

I have a converter thingy- or did- it was a 2 week trial... I have like... three other PCs though- so all in all, when I can donload it on each, 12 weeks...

and I can fit it on both- if you look on my Objects/items thread, you'll see a skull there- a human one mind you, but I've done skulls before x3

[Goldchocobo]

Ok- I've converted it and placed it.. it's.. just that the texture doesn't want to work >.>

Try putting the .png file? :] Or.. does that work? Make a seperate/convert the texture? Over all good job guys! Good commish. c:
