very pretty colour scheme.
very pretty colour scheme.
very nice and a good tip there too, thats what i did on the craft sprites i made, gotta be carefull to not make the colors too different then else it looks like lines there for no reason and doesnt blend as well
Lusshan - That ship looks fantastic. I really like the way that you've combined the colours.... Nice one!
I totally botched the Cold War skin. I was trying to convert the green to grey and it just didn't work out. I have been working on it off and on today. Hopefully I will have a decent grey version of the skin soon.
Vincent, I'd like to see it.
Well, there seemed to be a kind of bandwagon forming, and considering I lack originality or imagination, I have shamelessly jumped right on it.
So here it is, yet another Soviet Russian Qirex:
In action -

It's the first time I've used the original skin as a basis, which is a decision I made mainly because the Qirex 'wings' are such a pain to find the edges on. Also, thanks to the strange wrapping on the 'seams' along the wings, I accidentally created what I think is quite a nice pattern with the stripey bits on the front.
The flat skin, if anyone wants to try it - http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w...Highlights.jpg (I've just noticed that when photobucket downsized the bmp file to a jpg, it loses some contrast and so when you paste the image into the skin editor from its jpg ersion, the yellow comes out grey.)
EDIT: I've added links to the flat skins of my previous designs in the relevant posts, too.
EDIT2: Updated the skin with highlights.

Lance, pics when I get home.
Infected, like the Bubble Bobble images on there
That's a really nice skin Vincent. How long did it take you?
I've had a change of heart with regards to my custom skin. I had a bright blue/white Pirahna skin going on but it didn't look right.
I've edited the original Pirahna skin for my new one. I like the colours too much to change them! What do you guys think?

here's a little preview of my "mega" style eg-x. lots of work left to do on it, but I'm quitting for tonight, hahah. I'm using the skin editor only on this...the 1px square is pretty much all I need. the bugginess is really slowing me down, though.
if anyone has any suggestions, I'd appreciate em.
akay thats damn nice cool colors too

My first attempt to make a skin:

Hopefully this upload should work a little better:
The skin in the image above is actually a slightly improved version of the one in my previous post, but I couldn't be bothered updating the screenshots etc.
Plus, here's a preview of what I'm working on next, a hand-drawn Da Vinci-style Feisar. It's way off being finished, but just to give you a taster:

ive just got a wipeout-skins site up and running now, if anyone can sign up and post there skins for download there to test it that would be awesome you upload a thumnail (nice clear shot of the craft) and the full image which should be the flat image for people to download, make sure the preview has mainly the ship in and isnt too wide/tall (200px width maybe)
the url is http://www.wipeout-skins.co.nr cheers

Little tip for you guys; use complimentary colours! makes the ship look alot more funky!
Tip for ''swift killer'': The correct spelling for your usage there is 'complementary'. Therefore I cannot compliment your spelling skills on that post.
''Tip''/suggestion for skin creators: Use whatever colours look good to you, not what looks good to someone else. Your own ship, your own agenda.
Couldn't agree with you more Lance. I'm fortunate that i really like the Pirahna's original colours, so I decided not to change them!
Lance, I know you don't own the game, but have you had a go at creating a skin? I'd really like to see what everyone can come up with.
