to prove my point:

Haldir

Haldir



personally i like the top one better

[Kwen]

EDIT (cant seem to edit for some odd reason)
I made a mistake same model different skin i still like the top one better, and still i dont like faramirs anims for haldir its way to bulky, he moves more agile, i'd use the regular elf anims edited so theyre different to suit him more...

[Celeglin]

I must agree. The skin tones in the old skin look much more natural... The new one makes him look like he has liver disease or something...

[Kwen]

lol, that and i doubt, after all that fighting the armour would still be sparkly gold, it'd have a tint of weather to it, thus looking more silverish.

thxs i like it it looks better then before

[whopper]

It's actually the same skin, only the game uses light effects wich change the colloring in certain missions.

[Celebrimbor]

I thought they looked similar...but I wasnt sure if they are the same one. Now I see why there are such vibrant colors and exaggerated shadows..they show up better ingame that way. But they do look different because in the top one his chest armor has a slight blueish and pinkish tinge to it, and in the bottom its only golden.

This is true. Game lighting adds in the extra effect. Though i must point out that the skin has been slightly modified. Also the Rendering program does not appear to be Renegade's W3d Viewer. The lighting though much improved obviously over saturates the color making it appear much nicer but too exaggerated at the same time. Its almost as if the Rendering Program is using floodlights on the model and as it does to actors, It makes things appear unrealistic. The skin is still the same in both. its just that lighting has terribly thrown off the toning in the render.
