I hope to see more work in the future from you, but next time, try something which will allow you to fulfill your potential. This is a pretty valiant effort, however, so kudos for giving it a good shot. Nice concept, wrong execution, I\'m afraid - it just won\'t work without modelling the robes on. The fact is, it\'s just not possible to skin armor into robes, and it shows here. A consequence of this is the pixellated look of the belt.ĭon\'t get me wrong - this is a pretty good robed skin considering the limitations of the model. While the belt does look good, I can clearly see where the saturation and contrast have been tweaked.
And what\'s been done for the trousers? Is that a texturizer filter? Photoshop\'s texturizer is not a good way to produce realistic fabrics, believe it or not. There are clear texture misalignments in a lot of places, and in others the textures just don\'t fit well at all.
A concept flaw rather than a skin flaw, but still a flaw nonetheless.ĭesann\'s robes don\'t match up at most points. Whereas heavy armor offers more protection but slows you down, light robes offer less protection but give you the advantage of dexterity. A Jedi wearing robes wouldn\'t use heavy armor - it counters the advantage given by light robes. A decent skinning job has been done on the frontal robes. It all flows well, there\'s no major clashing contrasts, and the whole outfit blends together. For my opening remark, I\'m going to comment on the color scheme. That doesn\'t mean GluGlivar hasn\'t done a competent job, however. Secondly, the concept implies attempting to skin robes over armor, which never works.
In the Jedi Knight era, the Jedi don\'t wear traditional robes, as we can see in JKA. The design aims to dress Desann in Old Republic robes.
I see two problems with the concept, before even touching the skin. And that is exactly where this skin comes from. Desann was a former student of the Academy, as JK2 SP players will know. Since this is essentially the same base project, I\'ll quote the original review and then highlight the changes and improvements. Well, when it comes down to it, this is essentially just a recolored pack based on the Jedi Desann, with some minor outfit alterations.
