ChaosCat and GingaNinja's skin shop

hey, i don't have any specific skin requests (atm, probably will in a couple hours when i remember what i wanted xd), but what program do you use to skin? Is there a tutorial online i could follow somewhere to get into skinning? I got into modelling about a month ago and its slow work but i'm getting better. anyway, i've been really interested in getting into skinning and i haven't found any adequate tutorials on skinning for the source engine. Anyway, thanks in advance and ginganinja [who is the coolest] (fixed :) ), is it alright if i add you to friends so i can message you if i have problems or questions while skinning?

1) Yeah I also had to ask some people as well to help me learn how to skin, it just takes some time to learn. :)

2) lol thankz youhz :D

3) Absolutely I'd love to help you with any trouble you may have with skinning, I was going to throw together a tutorial for you but by the time I read your messages you said you figured out how to skin. :)

ok, well nevermind, i've pretty much figured out skinning on my own, now i just need to practice for a week or so, then i'll be much better, maybe set up a skin shop of my own or just do stuff occasionally, i just need one thing, where would i find a high quality ego logo? the only ones i've found are fairly low resolution and when i make the logo large it doesn't look too good.

1) If you want I can talk to ChaosCat about letting you help us with our skin requests, that way it makes any large work loads we get easier, you still get to skin, and if you are busy and can't work on any skinning we at least have someone to cover you. :)

2) You can find a large version of both the new and old eGO logos here:

You can thank A Nurse From Texas for those :thumbup1:
 
Thanks for that, my skinning is still fairly basic so I could do with an intermediate/advanced tutorial, but most of my problems with skinning are my mediocre image editing skills (I've been modeling for a long time, but just started working on image editing about two weeks ago), and figuring out what parts of the gun are where on the skin. Most of the time its fairly obvious but its hard to tell with some of the little pieces. Anyway, here a couple of my skins (these were my first few)
Early Skins

I've updated the skins since then, this was the night of my first post. Anyway, I'll be uploading some new pictures on Sunday as my schedule is pretty much full until then with Marching Band. Anyway, thanks for the help!

Those aren't too bad for your first couple of skins, I like the DR skin, there just seems to be some border issues on the ax skin, but other than that they look pretty good keep up the work! :)

Is it finished?

Hm well I've been asking GrinningHillbilly the same question for awhile but he still hasn't finished it, I'll try to work on it myself to see if it will hurry things along.

EDIT: I just looked back at your skin request to see what it was that you wanted and saw that it was only your name, I can have it done in about 10 minutes. (Not sure why Grinning is taking so long on it) I'll PM you when it's done, sorry for the long wait but Warriors skin was giving me some real trouble :S

well apparently by sometime today I mean near midnight xD, I just started the vid lol :)
 
sorry I haven't posted my vid yet, I haven't had access in the past week to my computer with the skins on it. I'm getting access again sometime this week though.
 
I think you guys need some more advertising, since no one has posted in here since I have :( anyway, WITHOUT FURTHER ADO, after remaking my skins because my harddrive crashed, after struggling for days to get a decent video of them (my computer hates video encoding software and movie making software :(, but I fixed it :biggrin:), then fighting with youtube to get it in HD as it should be including asking Frisky Dingo for help I bring you my completed spy skin pack :thumbup:

Link win :biggrin:. Well, I failed last night, I did upload it in HD but I missed the HD button or it takes longer to process that or something because this is the original upload from last night that I said I would have to fix. I get up in the morning and its fine :). So here ya go :)
