HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

Hi guys I'm very new to this modding thing, and I just got photoshop last week so I've been playing with it and trying to figure it out. Here are my skins, please tell me what you think and where I should improve.

Note: Some of the skins are not mine, I'm just using them:
Plasma Pistol
Tank
Warthog
Sand
Biped
Sniper Rifle and AR are Rossmums, I just changed added some things because I think they are allready really good, I merely changed it for personal preference

the rest I show are custom made by me

Ok here they are:

Assault Rifle:


Pistol:


Shotgun 3rd person:

Shotgun 1st person (yes I know its a bit dodgey)


Plasma Rifle 3rd person:

Plasma Rifle 1st person:


Cliff Walls:


Rest of Map (the sniper aint mine just changed colours):


Rocket Launcher 3rd person:


Rocket Launcher 1st person:


Fuel Rod Gun:


and finally pictures of my Ghost:




Tell me what ya think

Pretty cool, AR looks a bit odd but the rest are nice. I like the shotty and FRG, they're cool.

Bahahaha, my evil is spreadin- I mean, nice to see people using my skins... yeah... >_>

hahah ty, yeh the AR I like it, but tahts just my preference of colour, my pistol I love but. Teh pics dont do the pistol justice, because the cubemaps and shaders change as you move.

Well done, they're actually quite good for firsts... maybe try a theme, where all the covenant weapons have a similar colour scheme or something? Congratulations though, I look forward to your future work.

hehe thanks guys! Ive been doing weaposn first, and soon will move onto the vehicles, then il try tackle bigger things

wow that is so good i cant describe it. You should be proud of yourself

Hey, is CMT using your cliff texture or something? In the last few Coag V2 screens I saw they looked similar.

Those skins look awesome 10/10

Great way to start off skinning. 9/10.

The skin looks really nice but the most of the weapons don't fit well with it. I do like the FRG and the rocket launcher.

Those look pretty good, keep up the good work.

Ha, don't you just love the files forum? If you put an option containing the word 'fail' in a poll, some random kid who probably doesn't even mod will turn up and vote that (possibly bringing some friends to share in the stupidity) and vote that option within 24 hours, guaranteed. And of course, they never post why they dislike it or their absolutely groundbreaking work...

Also I'm loving the Ghost :O

the plasma rifle looks pretty beast gj.

The Ghost is cool.

Thanks guys. I'm having trouble with cubemaps though. I have absolutely no idea on how to make them. Can I do em with photoshop?

Also should I release my skins now or tweak them a bit more?

wow cool skins. i love that frg one.

Keep skinning, your one of few people I have seen that doesn't over do every skin. Keep them clean and somewhat original and people will like them.

Ok a bit of an update I've just tried skinning hte needler, it's not fantastic but I'mjust in teh experimental stage at the moment. I'm having some hickups with the flame thrower also, wich i'll show a bit later

Needler 3rd person:


Needler 1st person:

OMG everything looks awesome, especially the map I love it all 12/10 man, keep skinning.

heres a little update on the shotty.





to the naked eye not much has changed, but the multipurpose really makes it so much better. I went into the multipurpose and fiddeled with some details, and this happened. It almost looks as if the gun has damage modelled into it:
