I love the colors, but the textures are just too busy. The feathers end up just looking like stripes, and the wood looks like painted plastic.

Alright then.

it was very helpful. I just disagree. don't get me wrong I'm all for criticism I just simply disagree with this take

You shouldnt respond to helpful criticism like that. Dont just say "uhhh no its actually not" and try take some advice on your work

my opinion is I disagree

The feather texture is a little out of place, and the wood texture is too realistic for the game. Its good as a concept, but the execution needs more work

The black texture is a bit too busy for a warpaint that doesn't have a solid colour layer

plank designs usually don't look nice. idk how i feel about that dark texture either.

i was joking with you. cool down.
i am not offended.

No need to get overly defensive over this, people are genuinely trying to help with these comments.

You're noisy.

ok thank you for clarifying

Not the resolution. Just the general impression the textures give off immediately appeared "grainy" to me. Noisy might be a better term. Feathers and wood textures are the ones in question

it doesn't make sense, what ? there's no graininess in the texture. the resolution is spot on.

I ask again which texture ?

Too much detail

Unfortunately no i do not know what you mean by too grainy. perhaps you mean over detailed ? All so which texture ?

Too grainy. If that makes sense

biased but I wholly disagree with these opinions.
from an artists perspective the results are ideal.

originally that's what I did have. I asked for feedback and people told me to turn it into planks because it looked two clean and nice to represent death by crows.

I'd probably ditch the planks and try ti use it as just "regular wood"

Wood can work quite nicely as a texture for a warpaint, but I feel like when you try to make said wood, into planks, then it just falls flat, looking kinda bad as a texture

Then I asked how would you go about fixing the texture ?

The problem isn't the base, it's the texture itself

Would any of you guys know a good base for the warpaint that would make the wood look nice ?

The wood texture really doesn't look good like this, when placed on weapons as a wp

i think PERSONALLY it looks a tad bit like feathers kinda? i do like the wood colours and such, and maybe for the "wood" i would make it more straight? i guess maybe make it look more like planks? overall good weapon skin

I really don't like when planks are done like this because it just doesn't fit on the weapons and ends up looking like plastic with a plank design on it. Really not a fan of the black feather texture either, the clarity of each feather does not give off a painted-on feel at all and ends up feeling like a random texture that was meant to be used on something other than the weapon.
Both textures look very good when battle scarred, but at lower wears they just seem out of place.
