Experimenting with a new technique, instead of "lighting" the texture itself with variations showing that light is shining off it, I'm using specular highlighting with a more refined form that causes it to appear like there is lighting on the texture that changes with where the light shines, exactly like reality.

Model was done by Sir Phoenixx, the single 1024x texture was done by myself.

The texture is overall ok but needs a little work, add more weariness or some scratches..

Ack quit being so negeative and tell Ack what he can do to better improve his texture, instead of just saying the same nonsense you always say. Very Happy

He's got a habit of quoting things totally out of context, it gives him a reason to show people that he has no purpose in this community.

It doesn't need improvement, he's an idiot. I can look at it and see no blurred areas, simply because it's a 1024x texture and it can't be blurred unless everything were mapped at insanely small resolutions.

Yeah, this texture is really nice, thank god you scrapped the old one that made it look like a cinderblock.

I'm assuming that the 2nd image is a picture of the actual rocket to be launched. If you've ever seen a real rocket, (any warhead, really) the warhead is seperate from the rocketbody. While you've clearly done that, the resolution to show it is BARELY there. The difference between the warhead and the rocket body is what is blurry -- but I would assume that is just to match the limitations of the Renegade engine. It's all well and good that you've colour coded the warhead, but it does not look smooth. It just looks blurred together.

I'm fairly sure thats what people are whining about.

It's not firing a rocket... That's called "showcasing," as in "showing both at the same time."

It's not blurry at all. It's simply not extremely detailed, because the missile itself isn't.

And take up the plastic look with the US Army, they developed it... Because it's made of fiberglass, not metal.

Then how do you explain the deep metal scratches in the previous texture?

The last texture was terrible, and luckily, ACK scrapped it, with the cover that he "missed some parts of the launcher in the texture because there are so few pictures of the Redeye."

It's ok to own up to when you do something poorly, ACK.

You don't know anything about being a texture artist, your signature is evidence of that. You also don't seem to realize that the launcher itself looks like that, you fucking idiot. Maybe in an alternate universe, I'll add some gay rainbow flags on it so you'll enjoy it.

This is based off a real weapon, and all it needs is what it already has. There is nothing else that can be added to a tube that fires missiles.

I don't plan to learn how to skin, I'm not a butcher.

v. skinned, skin·ning, skins
v. tr.
To remove skin from: skinned and gutted the rabbit.

Look down three more definitions

v. skinned, skin·ning, skins
v. tr.

4. To cover with or as if with skin: skin the framework of a canoe.

I'm assuming people use the term in modelling as covering a model with a texture as if it were skin. I guess it could also be meant as a metaphor.

You can't cover a model with a texture because it has no covering. The texture is simply a part of the model, think of it as the Holodeck from Star Trek: TNG. It's capable of displaying anything.

All I can do is laugh if you can sit there an look at that skin and the ones you have bashed in the past and say yours is fine. It looks like fucking ASS you just laid down flat colours and added specular! which makes it look like shit. Let Darkblade do the texturing as he knows what hes doing or better yet give me a week and once my tutorial site is up ill send you the link so you can learn how to skin,

Oh come on, I saw wha you said about "fixing" the old texture and how you missed some stuff so you were going back to make a couple changes, when in fact you re-made the texture, ACK.
