Altair

Description
Let's face it, it was only a matter of time till someone turned a reborn into Altair. Granted, a reborn is somewhat justified in this case, seeing as it's pretty much the closest thing we have to the eons-old 9-fingered assassin. Sadly enough, it's not all that great.

The author took the reborn and desaturated all its clothes, increased the contrast a whole lot, seemingly tried to render some lighting on it and then took a brush and did some paintwork. The straps holding Altair's holster and what's supposed to be his belt are textured on, as well as some folds and details from the reborn are covered up. The gloves have also been brightened and covered with a skin-colored overlay. I'm not sure what the author tried to do around the mouth, but it's got some black around it as well.

The resemblance is there from a distance only. When you get to the point where you can actually make out what's there, you'll start seeing the faults. The details are missing and, in many cases, main elements of Altair's outfit, such as the bracers and the correct belt. The textures don't line up all that well either, which might not bug some of you.

All in all, seeing as it's the author's first skin, I suppose it's not that bad. At least he did more than a simple desaturation or recolor, so props for being on the right track. Keep practicing and improving, we like to see those two things 'round these parts.
