nice armargon skin...im happy to see your current work every time nergal

[DeadTenor]

Tottally digging armagon, kinda looking like the doom 3 imp.

[Nergal]

@seanstar: legs almost done, I'll see tomorrow if I can continue.

@DeadTenor: WTF, I googled it, kinda similar indeed

@ooppee: hehe, it seems that using the brown color in quake is never an error
everything we do is likely to never see a release if it stays too long on the HDD... it starts to appear ugly so we urge to remake it...

[Hazza]

Looks good, I however would change the skin color from blue back to brownish just to keep it faithful.
Also could you post the other Armagon skin? I never seen it and can't find it

NO!
I disagree! The dark teal/blue skin really helps break him up from the other monsters.

PS nice to see you guys are on the Armagon Stuff now!

[LambentHammerBurst]

That is true. Just more of a "classic" player. Why all my content I've kept close to original (minus the lava nailguns - Reforged gave the idea).
Although once the skin is out, it's a simple edit to make him have brown skin again.

[Nergal]

armagon completed: it only needs a bit of polish here and there...

(bigger version) armagon

[Hazza]

Not bad! Needs more crisp break in his machine-parts, they look too much like his own flesh!

PS- your wouldn't want any concept ideas for the centroid scorpion by any chance (hint hint, link below cough splutter)

I think a 50/50 of the original design and yours would be good. I'd lose the Quake logo on it though.

[Nergal]

that pic used an unfinished glossmap, but I've added another layer of rust to be sure

about the scorpion, I'm inspired to start a new version with a more subtle mix of machine and flesh: not half metal half organic, but metal shaped like its chitinous counterpart.

P.S. hey king, you don't have even to ask, we're here exactly to take suggestions to improve the final result

hi

Wow, Nergal this Armagon skin is looking really good.

the original armagon skin has a couple things i dont care for.

the face.

the legs look to silver and with to many sidways slots.

your monster looks hd and scary as hell.

i presume that big hole in the face is his nose, that mouth with all the blood
and teeth looks so good.

i like your concept and design.

regards.

This really represents a true hideous general in quake's armies!

I really hope you release all the different versions of the Centroid that you said were created. Maybe you guys aren't satisfied with some of your own work, but sometimes I like the alternative skins much better! Heck, I would even enjoy a "scrap pack" that includes even the skins that you guys felt were junk.

Oh, and...
*broken record*
Any news on the fixed head gibs?

Cheers guys, and please do help yourself to the centroid (don't forget to add me to the credits!)
The idea for that was to make a clearly cyborg-look, and also give him a texture that would stand out to all the rusty metal (hence the orange chiton)- it may prove practical because in Armagon the normal centroids were REALLY had to make form of.

[Nergal]

working on the metal parts (colors not finalized).
