Helter Posted August 13, 2004 Posted August 13, 2004 Hello. This is my second attempt at retexturing Malak. I glad that some members liked my first. So I tried to do something new, usind new Photoshop modes and messing with the shiny texture. It's not complete yet. I'm trying to smooth some things out. Here's a body pic. New Malak Here's something I'm doing with the head. New Malak's Head1 And this slight change in the head. New Malak's Head2 A gameshot Battling Malak Some behind shots. Malak Malak Power Attack I'm having trouble coloring the Jawless Malak tga. So it'll take some time. Feedback will be much appreciated. Be gentle with me I'm a noob:) This is only my second mod.
Achilles Posted August 13, 2004 Posted August 13, 2004 I think you work is excellent. I'm still not that fond of the adjustments to the head tattoos but the new body work is very impressive. Keep up the great work!
RedHawke Posted August 13, 2004 Posted August 13, 2004 Thats a darned good Malak reskin you have there! Though I am also not too keen on the head tatoos, they seem a little too bright and appear to actually clash with the rest of the heads skin texture. Possibly darken and blur/blend the edges of the head tatoos a little more, and that might solve the problem, but don't quote me on that! And Helter, keep up the cool work!
Jackel Posted August 13, 2004 Posted August 13, 2004 The black and shiney textures look good , the red .. to me its to .. RED!
Darth333 Posted August 15, 2004 Posted August 15, 2004 Same thing here: good work but the red is a little too... red (bright). I would chose a slightly darker red tone for the cape and for the head I think the tatooes would be nicer in gray. The body reskin looks very good
Darth Dex Posted August 15, 2004 Posted August 15, 2004 Nice I took a crack at retexturing DArth Malak, he looks like Darth Magic, The Dark Lord of All BAsketball. Really good retexture though.
Glamador Posted August 15, 2004 Posted August 15, 2004 i cant believe i didnt think of armor! gauntlets! thats a terrific concept! damn ur good.
Achilles Posted August 15, 2004 Posted August 15, 2004 *drumming fingers* Is it ready yet??? . . . *starting to sweat a little* how 'bout now???
Helter Posted August 16, 2004 Author Posted August 16, 2004 Okay. I'm lost on what to do to the head. Maybe I could release the body alone and you can use the head you want. I tired a black tattoo but it wasn't blending in. It looked crooked. If you see the mess that is the body tga...well let's just say I don't think anyone will be able to re-use it. Let me know if the body alone will be okay.
Nodakrattler Posted August 16, 2004 Posted August 16, 2004 I'd download the whole thing myself, even though I think the red is a bit to bright. The end story is what do you like? I don't think modding is so much about what others want, but what you want and like. What I mean is if you do something the way you like it and want to share go ahead if no one else likes it that's their problem not yours.

Let me know if the body alone will be okay. My personal opinion is to roll with the body only. Your efforts to do something new with Malak's head are admirable, however being someone who's tried it, I know that it's hard to find something that looks good. I can wait to download your mod!
Helter Posted August 16, 2004 Author Posted August 16, 2004 Okay. I have released the body tga. No head. I couldn't come up with anything that looked good. Hope you like it. Here's the link: Malak reskin
Helter Posted August 16, 2004 Author Posted August 16, 2004 Originally posted by Glamador i cant believe i didnt think of armor! gauntlets! thats a terrific concept! damn ur good. Glamador. I have an idea for you to try. Create a bare-chested Malak. Your abs look great. Do the chest now. Give him a He-Man look.
Glamador Posted August 16, 2004 Posted August 16, 2004 u know wat? i think i might try that!...a bare upper body malak...i might actually be able to use a photoskin for that! take a picture of some body builder and mold it to fit malak...good idea...ur just chock full of 'em r'nt u?

Here's the link: Malak reskin Just downloaded it. Can't wait to see it in-game. Out of curisosity will you be releasing the head with the reskinned jaw armor (but without the new tattoos)? Thanks!
deathdisco Posted August 16, 2004 Posted August 16, 2004 Out of curisosity will you be releasing the head with the reskinned jaw armor (but without the new tattoos)? I was just about to post the same thing. I just saw the skin in-game. Very good, nice work:)
Helter Posted August 16, 2004 Author Posted August 16, 2004 Oops! Forgot about that Jaw Armor. I'll have it up as soon as I can. Sorry about that.
Achilles Posted August 16, 2004 Posted August 16, 2004 Originally posted by Helter Oops! Forgot about that Jaw Armor. I'll have it up as soon as I can. Sorry about that. No worries. I'm just thankful that you finally decided to make it available
Helter Posted August 17, 2004 Author Posted August 17, 2004 Okay the armor jaw is up at pcgamemods. here's the link: Amror Jaw
Achilles Posted August 17, 2004 Posted August 17, 2004 Originally posted by Helter Okay the armor jaw is up at pcgamemods. here's the link: Amror Jaw You da man. Thanks!
Captain LeChuck Posted August 17, 2004 Posted August 17, 2004 I like the head tattoos. I think you should release those too.
Achilles Posted August 17, 2004 Posted August 17, 2004 Just thought I'd mention that I fired up an old savegame from the Viewing Platform last night and fought Malak with his new skin.... It was AWESOME! Great work, Helter. I think the choice of body armor adds a sense of consisitency with the other Sith armors, plus it looks incredible on the load screen. Congratulations on the huge success!
Glamador Posted August 17, 2004 Posted August 17, 2004 u know...try as i might i cannot replicate your efforts...if i wanna incorporate armor into my malak skin i would need to copy and paste...u did a terrific job making it impossible to replicate...really original
