Run them through photoshop or a photo editor instead. Adjust brightness/contrast until the lines are more visible.
In the 550's Byzantine Generals Narses and Liberius were winning battles into their 80's. Retirement programs, though no longer including raping and pillaging, have clearly improved since.

just an idea but why not make a new moddel that looks like a creature. It would be more realistic if a creature would do the hard work. Its just an idea...

Well, I made some concepts of three new glass weapons. Hope it's something that can be used. One is the original concept and the second is the concept with some info.

Assassinace exclaimed many a day ago:

I'm not sure the breasts are ok. I think it's been decided we'll censor nudity although I'm not certain.
There is no such rule in TR.

edit:

I'm going to do something a lot of you guys seem to have requested in this thread: a concept art gallery for the main page. I don't understand why some of you have chosen to request it here, though - perhaps pm's to [url=http://forums.tamriel-rebuilt.org/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=644]certain[/url] [url=http://forums.tamriel-rebuilt.org/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=322]people[/url] might've gotten things in motion. I only read this thread the first time since forever today so I possibly couldn't have noticed your request. Anyway, all of you have done some great work and I've picked a bunch of best stuff for the site already, It'll be there soon enough.

@Kasan Moor
They look like ebony ones which are already ingame. IMO though.

Well, I made them up while I was at school, and maybe they look a bit like ebony. But I'm sure that when they're modeled and textured, they would look really different.

Vorrheis and I have been discussing the new Oblivion engine, and what we're going to do in the case that the TR team decides to switch to the Oblivion CS. Making creatures will be a lot more difficult (especially at first, while we learn the tools,) and more time consuming, because a high-detail mesh will be required, as well as a low-detail in-game mesh.

When that time comes, I was wondering if the artists could convert to a new style of concept art, and draw a front and side view of every creature. (A top view would also be very helpful, but not necessarily required.) We briefly touched on it in the Creature Creation thread, but it never really went anywhere.

Here's the template of the new format I'm talking about:
[url]http://forums.tamriel-rebuilt.org/download.php?id=2779[/url]

Here's an example of it being used:
[url]http://forums.tamriel-rebuilt.org/download.php?id=2783[/url]

And for humanoid creatures like the Ogre above, or anything like it, it might help if the sketches were posed slightly spread-eagle, like the werebear I built. This will make the high-poly detailing of meshes a lot easier for Vorrheis, myself and whoever else becomes involved. Thanks!

Also, I was thinking about the Newt for the Newt Scale Armour, and the look of the armour in game reminded me of this bugger, the Armadillo Lizard.

On a much bigger scale, this thing could be hell to fight. I notice also that one of the older Morrowind concepts mentions a "River Newt Scale" as well as the normal Newt Scale, so there must be a lot of big amphibians terrorizing Tamriel.

I like it. I think it would work well in Cyrodiil, as palace guard armor or something along those lines. It could even work as a basis for the Praetorian armor, it will need a lot of detail added though. I always liked that style of helmet, and was pretty bummed when the closest thing to it in Morrowind was the Nordic mail helm.
And to make it easier on us, next time crop your images, you have a lot of gray empty space.

There is plenty of room for armor designs. We need about a dozen new suits for Skyrim alone. Then we will need the new suits for Black Marsh, Cyrodiil, Hammerfell, High Rock, Elsweyr...

ARMOR CONCEPT!

Post by Zeanuthius »

I believe this is the spot for finished concept art? Well anyhow, sorry for the extreme long delay, I'm kind of extremely busy you see. =) Projects left and right and a lot of comissions to do.

Yeah, sorry for the crappy background and quick coloring... -_-

A certain somebody told me that "it doesn't look Daedric" but I dunno really. Personally I think it looks like Orcish.

It looks excellent. i recommend it for the gallery. And it does look like it would make a good orcish armor.

I like the armoru alot, except the helmet. I think it would be good for an altmer armour, perhaps Mithril.

the shaft of the bonemold spear needs to be a bit straighter and also much thicker. The point needs to be elongated as well.
