Tweeto Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 (edited) yo guys, i saw around here the developers mention they currently only able to reskin current models in order to make new units. so i was thinking about it and actually most of the factions have similar models already, with maybe minor differences but generally most of them change the texture and call it a new unit. with that said i took upon my self a little project to try and design new Amii cards that can be made in game with only changing textures hopefully that could give the devs some direction. ill keep updating this Topic as i get more progress, so let me know what you guys think for now here is the first sketches of an Amii Sorceress card art based on the fire dancer/frost sorceress model btw if you have better name im all ear lol, was thinking either Amii Sorceress or Night dancer, but they sound generic af :\ Spoiler Done!! and as a card: Spoiler Edited January 27, 2021 by Tweeto Leohausmaus, Dallarian, mamaximuss and 5 others like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tweeto Posted January 20, 2021 Author Share Posted January 20, 2021 (edited) thanks here is a small update, started rendering the face and chest, fixed some anatomy issues (colors will be back at the end) Spoiler Edited January 27, 2021 by Tweeto Dallarian and Emmaerzeh like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zyna Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 3 hours ago, LikeThat said: thanks @Myrmidon here is a small update, started rendering the face and chest, fixed some anatomy issues (colors will be back at the end) Honestly, I think the first one looks way cooler. In this version the face looks too "real", and doesn't fit with the rest of the artwork. With some more detail in the first version I could even see using that artwork if we were to add an Amii Sorceress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tweeto Posted January 21, 2021 Author Share Posted January 21, 2021 (edited) alright guys i think i see what you mean, how about this face? made it more stylized now and changed the expression slightly Spoiler Edited January 27, 2021 by Tweeto Sebu likes this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweeto Posted January 22, 2021 Author Share Posted January 22, 2021 (edited) so after a good night sleep i decided to redo the face entirely plus got lots of progress today i think were getting there ^^ Spoiler Edited January 27, 2021 by Tweeto YaBro0, Ladadoos, xs0ulLess and 2 others like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweeto Posted January 23, 2021 Author Share Posted January 23, 2021 (edited) And we are done! (crits are more than welcome) Let me know if you guys have any preference on which model i should try to paint next (this time ill probably do few concepts before) Spoiler and here as a card next to other cards, might need some minor color adjustments and maybe some details in the left part of the background Spoiler Edited January 27, 2021 by Tweeto Mynoduesp, Zyna, PsYcHo126 and 3 others like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladadoos Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Nice progress! I like how you are comparing your artwork with the existing BattleForge artwork, I think that that is a very important step to make your artwork fit the style BattleForge currently uses. Here's what I think currently. The colors are too saturated. The shading is too smooth. Lack of finer detail in the texturing. I think these three points are relatively self-explanatory once you look and compare. Let me know if you agree with my points. Very nice work thus far though, looking forward to more!

Mynoduesp Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 - The edition is missing - Card misses frost affinity dot & lining on requirements - Mode icon misses frost affinity background - Both species and trait (classes) should be uppercase Just kidding, amazing progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweeto Posted January 24, 2021 Author Share Posted January 24, 2021 (edited) thanks guys ^^ i hear you (too lazy to change much about the card beside the Edition though XP) @Ladadoos totally agree about 1, for 2 i think the smoothness can be gone if ill add more details like you said in 3 but i want to be cautious with the details as i had quit a lot in the original which took it too far from BattleForge style. how about this version? i added more details to the background, and de-saturated the reds in the picture. didn't touch the character yet (i would like to avoid adding details to her if possible).

shroomion Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 NIce ! Can not wait to ue it. However i would think i would want to give her something like a weak hurricane spell, since roots are more of a forestkin thing and i would love to see an amii forestkin creature. Something like a "Graveroot" or so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway i didnt mean to make it a full fledged card, only to show how the art would fit in a card. You guys are more than welcome making card out of the art i made. You probably have better ideas than me for the balance and abilities she should have. Edited January 27, 2021 by Tweeto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaktichu Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 The second art is very nice. Imho if sometime in the future will be possible to add new cards, there should be seperation of artists and rule writers like in any other game. Also it would be cool to have symbol for new cards in "Skylords edition" ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsYcHo126 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Seeing this gets me really excited for new cards (if it happens) in the future. Good job, I like it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweeto Posted January 27, 2021 Author Share Posted January 27, 2021 (edited) so yea i took another look on our dancer today, and oh my the background looked terrible.. and the colors were dead well thats what happens when i work on a single image without switching to some other project :\ anyway, glad i re visited her after a few days. i think with the new background and fixed colors she fits way better into the Battle Forge Amii fantasy ^^ Spoiler New one in the middle as always, let me know what you guys think ( i fixed the lettering this time ! ) Edited January 27, 2021 by Tweeto Metagross31 and Dallarian like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dallarian Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 (edited) "let me know what you guys think" - "You cannot give anymore reactions today." That describes my view pretty well. I like that you use your own art, we had a few ideas around at some point, but it was all pictures from google graphics. The art hits dark fantasy pretty nicely, and I like the "blurry" parts. They're adding a bit of mistery and magic, and remind me of some in-game cards. <sniff sniff 00110010 01000100 00100000 01100001 01110010 01110100 01101001 01110011 01110100 00111111> Edited March 3, 2021 by Dallarian Tweeto likes this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DukeDublin Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 The Amii canonically were dressed in black and took the shape of humans (though I believe it to be more of a black skin suit as described in the chronicles, think a xenomorph from Aliens). I love the art otherwise, but the card so far looks more like a pure nature unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tweeto Posted March 13, 2021 Author Share Posted March 13, 2021 (edited) we are gonna start it all over ^^ designing the whole faction, as before i shared the progress on discrod. here is what we ended up with for the first unit (ami phantom redesign) and here is a quick (not final) texture mock up: Spoiler with that said, the dancer an knight i did before are not relevant anymore and ill probably re-do them entirely to fit the new design Edited March 13, 2021 by Tweeto Metagross31 and Dallarian like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not exactly, i made a rough edit of the textures to resemble something similar to the new design. it works in game but its far from polished ^^ here is another update, bit more details and better contrast against the background: Edited March 15, 2021 by Tweeto Dallarian and Metagross31 like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
