So, thanks to Wain I got into this whole "lets recolour textures and see how they look like" thing. Seeing as I've done a few now I thought I might as well make a thread for them. Some of the recolours are better than others as it takes a few tries to get "familiar" with how the skin wraps around the different models.

Devilsaurs, these were my first attempts:
Image
Image
Image

Hydras:
Image
Image
Image

Serpents:
Image
Image

Raptors:
The lower one being an attempt to remove the harnesses from the riding raptors.
Image
Image

And a white Sambas that I'm not too happy with... I might try again later:

Just a quick question before I post more: Do you guys prefer the animated or still pictures? I kinda like the animated better myself, but you can see the actual texture a bit better from the still ones. :?

Animated is lovely, provided that people don't quote back all of them in full! Gosh, that's a laggy load. :|

The black and green serpent is absolutely everything I have ever wanted in a pet. It's utterly perfect in every way and I'm so, so very sad that I cannot have it. :( Beautiful work, Yoruko! I always love the colors you choose. Your recolors are very striking.

Dear god that purple core hound with the green accents. *faints*
I absolutely love the black one too, it's like ashes with a smoldering core.

aseghl;ksdfjh;l why aren't these in game. T_T

Same, I'm really impressed the black core hound :)

Of the older ones, I'm especially impressed your black-and-gold combos... devilsaur, hydra and serpent. That's a really striking colour scheme :)

As for animated vs still. I personally prefer still images. Animated are really nice to see but quickly become both distracting and cpu heavy when you end up with a lot on the one page. Like a web page from the 90s ;)

Yeah, I'm starting to regret initially preferring the animated versions, as this page has become increasingly slow. :|

my page is running very well but i admit that i do have a computer that can more then handle a web page full of animated pictures, it just doesnt like games when settings are above medium/good.

The black and 'gezzy' themed core hounds are amazing <3 and sambas recolors are as always, in all the different versions ive seen him recolored in, gorgeous. I honestly really do like sambas as a whole, i just cant ever bring myself to keep him in the long run due to the mane, but there are always points in my in-game life that i fall in love with him, id probably end up in a crazy push n pull relationship with him on each of my hunters with respective RP-appropriate colors of him xD

Right.

The black and orange devilsaur is delicious.
Both the serpents should be mine.
And I have never wanted a corehound as much as that black one.

These are WONDERFUL.

Hmm, it still runs fine for me, but then again people have different sorts of computers and everyone can't bother with a giant black monolith like I do. :lol: Maybe it's in everyone's best interest to use still images and link any animated versions I have for them.

Yeah, actually, I tried to load the page on my laptop and it's screeching death at me. :oops:

I'm just drooling over the animated models you have got going there. Very nice work!

Can you try taking a poke at a Black (Humar) colored Sambas with the green eyes. I'd love to see that in action :D
