  • Hi-Res Grenling Skin (AOP)

    NOTE: Work in progress. I took a break from my awfully busy life to finish what I started.





    MY INSPIRATION FOR THIS SKIN:

    -As you can see, I took some massive creative liberties to make this. Why?

    -I always liked the idea that the Quake universe is a limbo which sinners could use to save themselves from damnation under the rule of the witch goddess who created it, turning into horrible creatures that are embodiments of the sins they committed.

    -I'm very entertained by new ways to make something scary, and I thought the unique symbolism behind this one would do the trick. Back in the religious days of old, abortion was a sin, and so I thought about modeling the skin around that. Hence the ghostly fetus being devoured in a teeth-covered womb and the vagina-like mouth.

    -If you look at it another way, this thing sort of looks like an upside-down female reproductive organ on wings, which attacks you with its ovaries. It's so grotesque and disgusting. I love it.

    -I also love the notion that true evil does not need eyes to destroy you, a very quake-esque theme.


    THIS SKIN WAS A PAIN IN THE ASS:

    -Because it is extremely unclear based on what's already there for the grenling where the UV's are. I had to find them all through trial and error, and even still they are about 90% accurate.


    FUTURE OF AOP SKINS?

    -Because I feel like my work WILL get lost just like that of others no matter what you say, I've decided against releasing the juggernaut skins. However, if I do have the time (unlikely in the near future), a Legond skin will be made.


    SOUND PACK

    -When this is done, the full replacement sound pack, as well as a much-needed improvement on Blood's RTLights in AoP2M1 will be dumped into the general AoP collection.


    F E E D B A C K P L Z

    -Please tell me what you like and don't like so I can improve it based on public opinion. It is a work in progress after all.

        I really like AoP and I want to contribute, but I don't want to have my content lost, like I said. I hope you can understand. Thanks for the feedback, I thought this thread went dead.

        Also, I had a look at the dark knight, and I won't ever do a skin for that one until it somehow gets a better model, because the model that's already there is just liquid shit. I thought maybe If I ever get any modeling talent whatsoever, I'd make him with a SCYTHE, as he was meant to be, but for now, skins are the priority, so it's just this and Legond to go.

            Oh, and I'm planning to to update Aop reforged on Games and mods development for Windows, Linux and Mac - Mod DB when I've got a more complete version, and why not.......upload some videos on yotuube and maybe creating a facebook page called Quake HD, that show old mods and maps which have upgraded textures, models, skins etc....If i'm lucky i get some talented artists that can contribute, look at the brutal doom mod, got thousands of fans in his page.
