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.

Well it doesn't seem that different to me, but yeah why not, why should it have better quality than a shitty Adept portrait when you can have just the shitty Adept Portrait because Blizzard was lazy to make a unique portrait, right ? Artanis also looks Different in WOL and LOTV. Plus I see Zoraya as a pilot not a Shadow Hunter (A.k.a. Dark Templar in game unit), so I would rather do a custom unit model for her xD
I may do it in the future, but I really don't want to xD
Btw Zarxiel seems to be more nitpicking than ever. That stuff with Shadow Archon ? Jeez, I don't want to go through that again :/

In reply to DaveSpectre122:
We are working together on SCRTGW from 2012, he's alwais been like that, any "official" material is canon... Until it doesn't since on his mind "Headcanon" > "Canon".
The result is that most of the units mentioned on Editor data are automatically canon and actually exist/existed (like the signifier nerazim ht or a thousand others)
We are using Zoraya on EnslaversDV 4a because he is convinced that all three Zeratul's Legandary Legions commanders were fighting on that mission, due to some bullshit and convoluted reasoning that i don't even fully remember myself; Therefore we have Telbrius as the High Templar Hero, Zoraya as the Dark Templar Hero and Serdath as the Dark Archon Hero.
I tried to briefly convince him to don't do it but it's no use, we had dozens of discussions like the one you had about the "Shadow Archon" and he even got aggressive about fucking videogames lore on some of them; so my reaction was:
"Ehm... ok?? It makes a bit of sense, why not, after all we didn't even know their names..."
You may think that he is now more nitpicky then before because he basically went insane, thinking that his own Headcanon, Editor Data about Unused Content, Coop, Multiplayer, Comics/Novels/Books, Campaign, some SC-Related Heroes of the Storm skins lore and (oh my god) Multiplayer SKINS' Lore Descriptions have almost the same level of canonicty.
Ooofff i just got thorough your Shadow Archon discussion with him, lol, the Vietnam Flashbacks it gave me :D
What in the hell is this nonsense? LOL https://i.redd.it/uvtpggkryk711.png
Btw my stance on Canon is this:
Headcanon=Purely Subjective / Canon=Canon (O RLY?) / Book-Novel=Canon / Comic= Canon but not alwais (Shadow Wars for Example is surely canon) / Campaign=Canon but there are a lot of inconsistencies that you simply have to take as "ambiguously canon" / Coop= Not canon until we are says the contrary / HotS-SC2 Skins=Not Canon until i am proved wrong by Blizzard itself, therefore "ambiguously canon".
I can't believe i spent almost an hour to write this, almost as stupid as fighting with Zarxiel on my phone to use your female DT while travelling on the morning Bus.
In reply to DEFILERRULEZ:
Funny thing is that the Archon stuff is in data :/ However he is convinced that for no reason this was a mistake done by Blizzard :/ The image ? Well idk xD
About the canon stuff, well I have it similar to Zarxiel in the headcanon stuff, since I'm overly creative and most of my models are just headcanon. Custom campaigns are (head)canon for me, based on how much I like them. But I'm almost never trying to convince anyone that I'm right as far as they don't tell me that my stuff is wrong, for example the Shadow Archon is my headcanon and I'm not telling anyone to use it, just if you like it then you use it, but I'm not letting anyone tell me it's wrong .... it's just a model and it's right in my headcanon as well as for many other users ... Plus I'm a fan of multiverse theory, so each headcanon or campaign can be in alternate universe ...
Problem comes in the case that you have to cooperate on something (Your and Zarxiel's case). Then you have to come with an agreement ... and that depends on how stubborn the people are.
For example me and WingedArchon are cooperating quite well, giving advices to each other about models, campaigns ... and it's working well, at least I have no complaints and I think he does not have them either ...
"I can't believe i spent almost an hour to write this, almost as stupid as fighting with Zarxiel on my phone to use your female DT while travelling on the morning Bus." - This made me laugh :D I would seriouly turn off the phone xD Btw it took me 30 minutes to write this.
In reply to DEFILERRULEZ:
As much as I like my Female Zer'atai DT, I really don't think it would fit Zoraya well. So instead of doing the portrait with adept face ... I made her own model.
File Download
Hopefuly you'll find another use for the Zer'atai one :) Maybe instead of regular DT ? xD
"From black shadows she comes !!!" - Soon
And with her the Nerazim Skin set will be complete, or at least the units. I may do the structures as well one day, but not anytime soon.
Here are all the skins at one place, the scaling might be a bit off, but well ... it serves it's purpose to showcase the skins.
The Female Zer'atai Dark Templar took me quite a long time to make, so I'm taking a break now and will continue making icons, wireframes, portrait and other stuff for that model tomorow.
Fun fact: This is probably the first female Zer'atai (With Scythe, Zerg Jaws and no mask) art ever, I haven't been able to find any fanart at all !!! Closest are Vorazun, but she has Lenassa head and Jazura (I've made a model of her), but she has no Scythe.
Davis was still dead inside at her prime! Seems legit tbh...
That Advanced Oracle looks good btw
In reply to DEFILERRULEZ:
Yep probably xD
You like the Oracle ? Cool. I've been trying to make a unique and somewhat acceptable looking Oracle half a day, so I'm glad that I've made it in the end :)
'sup Dave, how are you?
I notice you have Nerazim Adept portrait, but no Nerazim Adept [yet].
Are you planning to do her next ?
In reply to EDHRIANO:
That one is done by Hammer107 already. It's actually a portrait for that model xD It's even the first line of the file description.
In reply to DaveSpectre122:
Ahhhh, i had hope you'll make a different model from hammer107.
More option always welcome.
In reply to EDHRIANO:
I understand, however I really like that one :/
In reply to DaveSpectre122:
Cool cool, just something for your consideration.
In reply to EDHRIANO:
Well maybe someday if I have time and get some interesting ideas for it :)
My face when i saw your Typhoon model
In reply to DEFILERRULEZ:
You are either scared of a giant orb flying at you from the Typhoon, or you like the model xD
In reply to DaveSpectre122:
I am amazed by your Typhoon model and i am in full admiration for its Hero Icons with their dumbass and MENACING glaring eyes
In reply to DEFILERRULEZ:
xD
When will you start creating minor zerg heroes?
In reply to kerasever:
Well since there are almost no official minor Zerg Heroes you probably mean some fanmade ones. Zerg are my least favourite race and it's also kinda hard to create heroes for them withou all of them just being Infested Terrans or Broodmothers. Maybe I'll make a few of them if I ever get back to making campaigns, since I already have ideas for few of missions with minor Zerg heroes.
But with all the ideas I already have, I don't think there will be many of those.
In reply to DaveSpectre122:
If I may, something like them , perhaps ?
