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.

Posted Apr 21, 2019"ShE iS wEaRIng a VoID RAy sUIt", "shE HAs tWO BlaDES, ThErefoRE shE'S NOt a DaRK TEMPlar!"
Sadly i am not allowed to use this model either for Zoraya on EnslaversDV 4a, at this point i think that i'll keep laughing at him in order to hide my frustration :/
That being said, she looks like a xenomorph lol...
Jokes! Amazing model, really like the concept of a pilot on foot and that she has a pair of blades like centurions, making her stand out from your typical dark templar, even the overall design being a guess on the void ray pilot suit is really interesting, good job Dave!

¨Well she is not a Dark Templar, she is a Nerazim pilot xD Thanks for the praise, however it wasn't my idea to make a Void Ray pilot, if you look in the description of the file, there is a link to original. I've only made her have a more female look (That took quite some time and still nothing amazing), added Adept head and changed textures.
About the blades, I know it was a joke, but regardless the Dark Templar can use various weapons, one Warp Blade, Shadow Scythe (With two blades), surely two warp blades too, or one sided Scythe ... Lassatar is on a whole new level ...
Since we now have only Lenassa and Zer'ata DT's in game + Vorazun who is kinda part of both and still different at the same time. But there are many Nerazim groups hidden around Koprulu, so there might be many different weapons out there :) For example Warp Disk sounds cool :O Also there is one other clan mentioned on Wiki, the Boros clan and I'd really like to do a model of a member of that clan, might be cool. ( I know that the original Void Ray Pilot is called Boros warrior, but it really doesn't look like wearing heavy armor).
"Sadly i am not allowed to use this model either for Zoraya on EnslaversDV 4a, at this point i think that i'll keep laughing at him in order to hide my frustration :/" - Why can't you use it lol ? If you still can use the Zer'atai, then I'll make the portrait. But i think that Zarxiel should realize he isn't the only one working on the campaign.

You know that I can read this, right?
The model is amazing, without any doubt. But Enslavers 2 is set during BW, how a Dark Templar are waering a suit of a ship that still don't exist? This is the problem

We know you can read this, maybe you should learn something from it and improve your cooperation skills xD
The suit might be a standart issue Nerazim Pilot suit that could have been developed long before the Void Ray. Also if you are planing to use Serdath there, will he be a Dark Templar or Signifer ? Because if you intend to make him a Dark Archon ... well he would be dead by LOTV, since lore-wise Archons do not last very long.

I'm quite methodical and precise with details ecc... unlike someone else (coff coff Mass Recall with Artanis Hierarch, Vorazun instead of Raszagal, Aldaris that change portrait without reason, Primal Zergs for Garm Brood, coff coff)
So, have her with that suit don't make sense, I even write to Phill Gonzo to know if Void Rays existed during BW, to try to make something that I had in mind, but he said to me that the technology was created long after BW, so I scrapped that idea.
And Oracles and Corsairs have different pilot suits, so, is unlikely that that suit was a common suit used by pilots.
For Serdath, I had problems I admit, because in campaign they say the unit you use is a Dark Archon, and I ever found lazy call him "Dark Archon Hero", I mean... SERIOUSLY?
Zeratul: Executor, you must escort our Dark Archon Hero to the Crystals
Dark Archon Hero: But I have a name...
Zeratul: SILENCE DARK ARCHON HERO!
And I noted an interesting thing in 04a, the only "unique" units that you have are a Dark Archon, a Dark Templar and an High Templar, and in Co-Op Zeratul have a Dark Archon, a High Templar and a Void Ray (that is piloted by a Dark Templar). So, instead of using 3 heroes with the most generic name possible, we decided to use the 3 Zeratul heroes (even because I discovered Serdath in game files is called DarkArchonHero, and... yhea, don't prove so much since, how I said earlier, is the most generic name possible that you can give to a hero, but still, is interesting XD)
The only thing that I can explain this is that Serdath and others Dark Archon go in statis to not die, I suppose. In LotV we see Dark Archon be summoned, and in HotS in the Ark shuttle we see an Archon in stasis, so, that Serdath after Enslavers 2 go to statis make sense to survive. Archons can go in statis, why not even Dark Archons at this point?
But the true question is. Why Serdath have just one name? Lorewise the Archons and Dark Archons don't have 2 names?

I get your point, but there needs to be treshold as well, when I did my own campaign I also wanted it to be precise, however when you're working work someone, you have to make a compromise. The Vorazun instead of Raszagal is a one thing, but the thing with Zoraya is something different, the face of normal Zoraya is not that different from my fem Zer'atai DT and furthermore the face of my model is made from Vorazun's head that is much more detailed than Adept one. It's a normal thing that during the development of new expansions the character changes. Look at Artanis in WoL and LOTV, same with Nova in WoL and Covert Ops respectively ... So there is really no reason why you couldn't use that portrait without changes ...
For the suit thing ... Oracles don't use any kind of special suit, they have their normal DT clothing. Corsairs wear a mask that is typical for Human fighter pilots as their Fighters usually don't have life support that generates air in their cockpit, however they make no sense at all for Protoss. That's the reason why I like this fanmade portrait much more than the original:
It has a mask too, but it looks more like armor than the breathing systems ...
Additionally based on the golden color of both portrait and unit, I guess that the corsairs are manufactured by Khalai phase smiths as well as the pilot's equipment.
So Void Ray's suit might be a suit of some Nerazim pilots or just a clothing of a certain Nerazim clan, similarly to Zer'atai having the bones, Lenassa the cloths ... That would make it more acceptable I think. I doubt that anyone playing your campaign would complain about Zoraya in Void Ray pilot armor, they are most likely to say: "Hey that's nice, she has a custom model". So I think that in this case you should listen to Defilerrulez and use it.
For the stasis, well you've got me there, that's probably possible.
About the name, well the Dark Archon Ulrezaj is named after the most powerful Dark Templar it's made of, despite being formed from 7 of them. So maybe the most powerful part makes the name ? Sounds silly, but that's one possibility. Other is that they get a new name, or that it's made up from two names, in Serdath's case something like "Seranos" and "Leradath". In SC1 there is an unused Archon hero named "Tassadar/Zeratul" meaning that maybe they are normally reffered to by their original names and Serdath may have some meaning in Khalani, like "Dark Hero" or something, receiving it after certain action. I guess Archons normally don't have names as they die quickly anyway.

Well, I guess you right, but I wanted to have the portrait how much possible similar to the official portrait (but as a Dark Templar XD)

your right, what I realy want is a team color primal spiked behemoth from Starcraft 2: Origins (the one that looks like a whale), a primal devourer, and mabey just primal heads attached to the certian zerg units like infestor/viper to give them that lizard feel rather than that snail/scorpion feel. but mabey just the whale cause primal lacks big air units.

If I can, I suggest to give to the Stalker a new portrait, even if is only changing the light, just to give a "skin" portrait for him too, just like all the rest of the units :)
