Yamask Theme open discussion

Postby TopHat » Fri Apr 01, 2011 7:26 am

As noted in our new article, we'll be showing off our skin-creation process publicly so you can get an idea how our creative process works. This is the thread we'll be using.

Yamask? Really? Don't we already have a Cofagrigus skin? Surely this will end up being just more of the same.
Oh well, maybe this one will end up being one I'll use. Here's hoping.

We're completely and utterly serious when we say we're trying out a "new style." All of the current styles on the site we consider done in a single style. This is just the foundation we'll build upon.

What we're essentially doing is a PLDH makeover, starting from the most simple of changes as possible and building up, slowly but surely. The end result will not be like the rest of the styles on the site, and the site will be a lot more efficient when we're done in general.

At least, that's our goal.

neither could I.

When I first logged in, i thought that was a April Fool's joke...i guessed wrong. 8-)

It does look like a guy with his nose going the wrong way. If you turn your head upside down, run around in circles, and tap your red slippers 3 times it kinda looks like yamask.

The color scheme looks exactly the same as the Krookodile one to me. That's not really a bad thing though.

I mean, right now you can see it's a pretty dull makeover of the Krookodile skin that was the previous default, but we have a good feeling about where we're going with this, so stick with us!

Okay, here's draft two. A couple things:

1: Tried a light yellow as an accent to further drive the "IT'S A YAMASK" home since so many people apparently had problems with it
2: Positioned it slightly differently to make it dynamic. There's a cropping issue with his eye but it makes the Yamask look like it's sad or something, I personally like it this way but I can guess I'm gonna need to fix it later.

Better color contrast: Gold on the Black with Red. Also it stays true to the overall color scheme of Yamask. Much better than yesterday's.

Though the color scheme is much better, I am still iffy on the yamask. Because the arms are a big thing on Yamask, I would think something to do with the arms would make it look more like a Yamask

I never saw the arms as a big deal of Yamask. I was always under the impression the....mask...was the biggest part of Yamask.
