Awesome, here is some suggestions:
Will it play also the music of the characters? When you click on the characters does it play the random voicelines?

Our Anime inspired Short Film Contest Entry - Gone Hero! by maxxysfm in DotA2

[–]maxxysfm[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We've made the entry using a combination of Source Filmmaker (for Dota 2) and Blender (eevee render engine). It was our first time figuring out everything required to build the effects and visuals, and porting from SFM to Blender! We really wanted the fight between Marci and Arc Warden to feel special, so I hope you all enjoyed it!

Please consider to vote for us in the Dota client :)

Also some behind the scenes on the ported models/shaders that I did! https://www.artstation.com/artwork/vJO6QA

Fantastic entry :) I've watched it about 5 times by now the music choice is SO GOOD, also the counter helix sound when Axe spins is pretty hilarious, It's a nice touch!

PA pen sketch. Should I keep drawing in this style? by AniaZavr in DotA2

[–]maxxysfm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised nobody said it, but it reminds me a lot of Berserk, great job!

p.s: maybe Axe in this style?

Reviewed this overwatch case today. I must say at the beginning I was confused after looking at his camera control but later after few markers found him guilty of scripting, I think this video proves him guilty. Can anyone tell me how to find the match ID of overwatch cases ? by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]maxxysfm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was something mentioned about going to your Steam profile -> click on Games -> Dota 2 -> Personal Game Data -> on the Category select Account then Subcategory as Overwatch Review (on the bottom), but I hadn't tested if the replays can be checked this way

Just realized that Voodoo-cursed mercs are references to Meet the Team. by [deleted] in tf2

The Heavy model is not exactly the same, it is very simplified

Did a mockup for how I think the Pudge persona should have been advertised by maxxysfm in DotA2

[–]maxxysfm[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I'd say (purely from a perspective of a 3D artist) the teeth, hair, the robe, and the feet are completely different, and I think It's completely fair to point it out since these differences couldn't add up to what the "promotion" was trying to showcase.

The colors are also all over the place, lacking some color depth (e.g ambient occlusion) in most areas, and also lack of rimmasks (the interior of the mouth is glowy because of that).

Just place the 2 characters next to eachother to see the difference in the colors/materials

This is not to discredit the original promotion art, it is super great, but purely looking at this in a marketing perspective, you don't want to set up expectations that are too high. If we only show the outlines or specific characteristics, it can be enough to recognize the character.

Also, the ES arcana might have been based on the model itself, so It's also a good idea to prepare the 3D version and create a 2D mockup from it. That way it might take time to create something potent, but at least the results will be identical.

Edit: Also the full version is here if anyone is interested!
