DaveSpectre's Assets
I do all kinds of different kitbashes and retextures.
I am currently struggling with burnout and I am learning to live in some healthy balance. That means I will not release models very often, but sometimes I will make some when I feel like it. So I guess you could consider me semi-retired ? Anyway, I am not doing any requests for the moment, until my mind is healed, which might take a long time. So please do not ask any requests of me, no exceptions (Asking for a fix if model is broken is not a problem). But I still want to do at least some models and share them with you. Hopefully you will find some of them useful :)
Stay healthy and don't forget to rest regularly ! :)
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 and energy 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).
Original credits go to Activision Blizzard and their respective authors. Most of my stuff is made from their models, textures and voicelines, which means, don't use my assets for any commercial purposes. Otherwise you are free to use my models as you want including edits. Crediting is not necessary as long as you don't claim the model as your own. For edited models, I'd like to be credited as original author.

Hi, it seems I'm not only one who likes the Spectre icon xD
Glad you like my models.
There is no need for picture, it is a well known Issue for me, however I'm not able to fix it in a different way than removing the trails entirely. I also don't know what triggers it.
But if anyone knows it would be nice to know :)
In reply to DaveTheSpectre:
Spectre Icon is clearly the superior one! You, sir, have style!
Oh, okay. Glad I'm not the only one at least, who's having problems. It's a shame there's no clear way to fix it atm. But honestly, the model fits so well in my project that I'm willing to look past that issue and keep it! :D
In reply to dudkisc2:
Yep.
Well the issue is most certainly caused by editing in Blender ... Blender just breaks a lot of things ...
If you want I can remove the trails, but I'm not sure if it will look good withou them :/
In reply to DaveTheSpectre:
If you want to, I will use it. But it's not a super high priority for me.
In reply to dudkisc2:
Well it's not anything difficult either xD
"Mecha boobs"
In reply to marinara101:
Don't encourage him!
In reply to marinara101:
In reply to CerberusSC2:
Yep, do not encourage me. Bio boobs are better xD But seriously cute faces are the best :)
On the other hand I think it's perfect for the Heaven's Devils kind of humor, isn't it ?
In reply to DaveTheSpectre:
Can someone please explain me why you terrans are so obsessed with your milk glands and reproductive organs? Well, I know the anabolic processes behind it, but for me as a Zerg, it is very hard to understand it.
In reply to Gumba_54:
Ask some terran that is actually obsessed with them, because I'm not :)
In reply to DaveTheSpectre:
Lol, yea, it fits perfectly.
Speaking of Heaven's Devils, do you think you could re-make the Heaven Devils models? (Tychus, Blaze, Crooked Sam, etc.) I think a lot of them don't really fit that well. Nux is literally just a purple Spectre and Crooked Sam is just the Umojan Reaper. I think you could have a lot of opportunity for some creativity on them! ^^
In reply to marinara101:
Yep, already part of a plan :) However I will not change Tychus at all and Blaze will only get a minor change, but the others will be quite different. It's also something I don't like, most of Tychus' units are just a bit edited Umojan models and that makes no sense at all ... I kinda understand they want to use their skin sets, but it shouldn't be for the first commander that comes on their minds. Umojan skin set would have been great for Valerian. And the rest are just versions of default units, which I still like more than the Umojan ones, because base units fit better than those high tech ones. Actually nux has a bayonet on his rifle, some knife/s on boots/legs and twin pistols on his back, but those details can't really be seen much and he just doesn't look good xD
In reply to DaveTheSpectre:
Lol, yeah. Maybe you could go off this picture for some of them? Idk if these are the people in SC2, but they were the original Heaven's Devils

You could probably get an idea for Vega and whoever the big guy is in the back (either Cannonball or Rattlesnake, I can't tell)
In reply to marinara101:
Well from these only Tychus is present in the new Heaven's Devils. I think maybe I could do Nikara similarly to the medic there. Rattlesnake will have some actual Rattlesnake aspects to him, Vega will be an incarnation of Heaven's Devils logo. She already has a cape, so why not to add a skull and some wings & halo. However for Canonball I have no plan just yet, so Maybe I'll take some inspiration from this picture.
Covert Ops dropship portrait with 5 euros googles is oof
Tosh one is gud
Heaven's Devils Adjutant is magnificent
In reply to DefilerRulez:
You know they've lost their best agent, I guess they're now short on funds xD
Yeah I like that one too :)
Glad you like the adjutant !!!
I have two questions for you:
1. Do you know any good method to make shield wireframes?
2. How to make custom models?
-Step -1: Buy a new Potato PC that doesn't crash beyond repair when using coop dependency in the editor.
-Step 0: Install Blender with m3 Plugin or 3ds´Max and a good photo editing software of your choice (in my case paint.net)
-Step 1-3: ?
-Step 4: Take details from other models and glue them to your one, paint new textures.
-Step 5: Upload to SC2 Mapster
-Step 6: Profit
-Step 7: Get complaints that your model doesn't have wireframe, icon, warp-in and death animation
-Step 8: Copyright lawsuits by Blizz
-Step 9: Death sentence
In reply to Gumba_54:
Well I have a method, but it's using Zoner Photo Studio and quite difficult xD
The other one seems to be more of a tutorial than a question xD But it's kinda correct :D
I don't know why, but when I saw your latest adjutant, I was laughing so hard that I fell off my chair.But when I read the annotation, I was roling on the floor for 5 minutes...Then my mom came into my warren and asked me whether I am alright, and she started laughing too when she looked at my PC screen.Honestly, it is amazing. I don't know why you're into dropships so much right now, but I think that they're also very good.
In reply to Gumba_54:
Glad I made you laugh xD
Well it's not like I'm now a Dropship enthusiasist, I I just wanted to make one for Heaven's Devils, but then I thought like, well the emissive would look cool in blue and I made the Covert Ops one and then Tosh has the same dark color as covert ops only with red emissive, so I thought that I could make one as well xD But that's all for now, no more dropships planned :D
