DaveSpectre's Assets
I do all kinds of different kitbashes and retextures.
After a long time, I have probably found a way of working with requests. Since every time I said that I will do requests, but only rarely, some people wrote me a message like this: "I know you don't do much requests, but maybe you could do an exception for me". And if three people do this at once, it's just not possible for me to do. So since I still really want to do some models based on people's requests, I will do it with a set of rules, which can be found here: Request rules.
Hopefully this way I will be able to make something for you without going crazy. We will see how this will work out. It may happen that I will change the rules if I see they don't work. Thank you for your amazing support and for using my models. I hope I will be able to make some nice models for you :)
Requests available for January: 0/2
Taken requests:
1. Roach made from volatile infested terran
2. Ravager made from infested volatile Roach (Infested Azmodan / different sollution)
You can find a list of already finished requests here: requests made
Here you can find a list of models I want to make one day (Note that there is no order to this list): Models I want to make
I would also love to continue making story maps that would include my own models (But that's probably only a dream now. I have very little time for that).
And last but not least, I'd really love to do more commander concepts with videos, because people seem to love those, of course those would require additional models and lot of them. You can find the list of potential commander concepts that I currently have in mind here: List of potential Commander Concepts (on the bottom of the page).

Posted Jan 6, 2022Would you be willing to make a Forged Spear of Adun UI, like in this image I modified?
I'd be willing to pay, if you want, since your requests are filled, but honestly, it'd be a very simple thing.
I've tried to do it in blender or to use dialog items and failed horribly, so if you could, it would be amazing.
This would be for my Faction Campaign, Legacy of the Tal'darim in the arcade, which I am resuming work on after a little while of being stuck. Thanks,

Hello,
My time can't be bought, so there is no way I'll do it that way. But perhaps I may do it for free if it really is something simple. But I don't really know if it truly is. It's never a good thing to say that something is simple or easy regarding SC2 models as Blender can turn something that seems simple into a nightmare.
So yeah, I will have a look and I'll let you know if I think it's possible for me to do it or not.
Also, I wish you a good luck with your campaign !

I think I found an alternative using Dialog Frames, thank you anyway!

Posted Jan 5, 2022Hey Dave, I love the newest model and I'm using it for a really cool Mech Walker unit, the Penumbra. However, I've noticed that the lighting on the gun portion of the model can look a little weird when the model is at facing sideways angles (I'm guessing inverted normals?). I don't think that this is related to my implementation of the model, but if you think it is then please let me know! (This is on Ultra graphics settings by the way)

Hi,
I'm glad you like the model. And yeah, you are right, the lighting / shadows on the gun are weird. I tried to fix it, but I was only able to make it slightly better, but not able to fix it completely. I just have no clue on how to do that in Blender.

Hey Dave, I figured out what the issue is!
I was right about the inverted normals. For some reason the M3 Material "CastanarPowerups blue" had a Flag checked called "Dark Normal Mapping", which I'm assuming flipped the normals for that texture. That flag just needs to be unchecked and then the normals on the gun work properly!

Hi,
Cool that you found out about this. However now the gun seems to have the lighting mirrored. Rest of the model seems to have lighter right side (from the perspective of the walk direction of the model) and darker left side, while the gun seems to be mirrored to that. At least that's how it seems on the image on the left.

Posted Dec 31, 2021Man, if I had known I needed to show up here 10 hours sooner than I've been checking on this place, to request things, I'd have been more on it.

I know, this sucks. I think generally the rules are good, but the monthly reset is something I need to figure out. Perhaps choosing some specific time might help, but then everybody would be stressing out to click "send" at the exact moment the time hits. And not to mention that there are many time zones, so choosing one that would fit everyone seems impossible. i don't want anybody to wake at midnight just to have a chance to request. This is really so hard :(

Posted Dec 31, 2021I have a question. You have written in the rules that you do not need to request in advance if everything is busy. But the problem is that whenever I go to this page, I see that all requests for the month have already been made. What to do?

That's a good question. The answer is simple, you have to be lucky. There are probably many people who ant requests, but only one gets a chance every month (unless they choose only one model, then two people have chance). Just whoever is first to ask after the requests are made available is the one who gets the models.
There is just too many people and only one of me with a little time available. I'd like to make models for everyone, but I simply can't.
The reason why there is no requesting in advance is, that there could be models piling up in a list and it would only be stressing me out, which is not something I need, especially not lately.
That leaves only two choices, either the first one to ask gets the models, or I wait few days and gather some requests and then randomly choose some. I'm not sure which is better.
Anyway, I probably need to make some sollution to when exactly should the requests be available again, some exact time perhaps, but maybe that will only create more stress for people ... I really don't know what to do. There probably isn't any good sollution.

I think your concern is my fault.
If you need it, I don't think it would be bad to give up this opportunity to others.

No, it is not. The "reset" time is something I need to solve anyway.

Hello there,
Thank you very much. I wish you a happy ne year as well. You are not too late, you are too early xD. Requests will be open in ten minutes. So, you can try again :D
EDIT: Well, somebody was faster now. But these two might be easy, so I can probably do them too.
