This is my first hog skin and it was a ton of fun, I'm going to be doing a lot more as soon as time permits, this one in particular is for a map I am helping Physician create. I am a working illustrator and you can check out some of my other (non-halo unfortunately) work at
www.rockydavies.com

Finally, style comes to Spawnkilling!! Check out those wheels!

Hey thanks for the compliments guys. This was a lot of fun. It is the original poly map, I just painted in a couple spots to try and make it look a little different map (kinda worked). I also did texture the turret but it was hard to tell what pieces went where and as a result some things I painted ended up in places I didn't entend. For example, there is another nice pheonix crest that is supposed to be on that front turret shield but it ended up on the back of it! lol, I'll have to fix it.

Here is the Blood Bat I am working on, but I notice some things still not turning out how I planned them so back to the drawing board! Anyway, here's a WIP shot! Check out the tire treads! Yeah! I had shoes like that back when the original batman came out.

Hey, thanks again for the compliments! I forgot to mention and thank my good friend Physician for actually skinning these and taking the screen shots, I do all the art and then I pass the files onto him and he skins them. We will make a download available but I still have to make some corrections to these (e.g. the gun shield is sideways) but the DL won't be available until the final release of his Haloball level, which the Blood Bat is custom made for. I still have to create the blue team hog...not sure what that will be yet.
-hey I was also going to say, you can click on my little "www" button down there to see my online art portfolio!

Those skins are sweet, you should release 'em seperatly after the final haloball map is out so those without halo CE can use 'em
Keep up the good work.

Hey, I started another thread for my newest, but then I think I'll just put all of my stuff in the same thread? Maybe that would be easier, if you guys think I should do a new thread for each design just tell me. And moderators, feel free to delete the other Komodo post I did. Thanks!
Here is my Komodo King and matching Master Chief skin. It was hard to see what the MC skin really looked like so I also am showing the flattened skin, which, if you like you can just right-click save and use it yourself, my treat. Thanks again to Physician and Mindaugus for actually putting them on the models!

Custom seats and tires! Whether you're running for the flag or spawn camping, the Komodo King is the hog for you!

This is the best shot we could get at the time, maybe a better one will be coming soon.

Several gators were killed to bring you this skin, garaunteed!
Rabiv- I take about two to three hours on each skin, I made a template sheet that I print out and sketch ideas onto and then I take the ones I like the best and actually paint them on the computer, I use Corel Painter 8 (much better than Photoshop to paint with). I can post the templates I made too, if anyone wants them.
