The boots are done very poorly. There are clear flaws in the geometry.

[Ridder Blauw]

I was planning to redo the boots but I just couldn't find the time.
Expect an update soon.

They're not realistic so I don't really know what to say. They don't look good at all.. Plain textures.. looks so dull.. or, terrible to be honest
Modelling looks okay, 'cept for the sword handle

[Ridder Blauw]

Ok, shall improve the textures soon.
Hopefully it will look better.

Added the Port Cotri Gaurdians with an ingame shot .

I was the first one to vote a 1 , but I didn't post why cause I didn't have time, but now I do So I basically agree with Lauri their to dull, plain and have absolutely little to no detail The skins look very blurry and the models are all edgy and stuff and to tell you the truth it looks like you took very very little time and the skins I also don't like it because the bears are unrealistic and are weird colors, plus the bear skins have no details on them

Childish behavior is not necessary.

Ok.... I understand... but.... I did take my time on creating those skins and models, and since I haven't had so much experience it may not be good enough in your eyes.

Well, to cheer you up, my reason for the textures being bad (the models are ok) is that they're not realistic...
And let me define realistic in my eyes for you;
Bears aren't blue\green
Armor aren't white, usually..

my two cents
If that's what you're going after though, fine by me Now that many of us have skinned for a few years, we take for granted that everyone can skin good, while most new guys can't right away. Keep on skinning, and you'll get there

[NewErr]

Not to bullshit you but my first skins looked exactly like yours , and after like 3 years , look what I do .Plus you are a little younger so your skill will be even better at this age .

[Radspakr Wolfbane]

Maybe choose a different shade of blue.
The shade you've used is rather off putting.

In my opinion Acosa would be better with more realistic looking bears/bear people.
Think tooth and claw instead of cute and cuddly.

[Amroth de Dúnedain]

Looks nice

[man_of_gondor]

I know many people here thinks: Why the hell do you want to create and play a mod with bears in it? And some nasty purple-faced humans? Well, i can promise you one thing. If you play it sometimes i think you really like it. I am Beta-Tester and it is really a nice mod to play. And BTW: I think the models/skins are awesome but i agree with Rad, you could try to add some more details to the bears.
