My latest skin, im quite happy with the result.

issues: make sure when you inject the bitmaps, inject the actual warthog skin last or else part of the rims will go over it :?

for best results swap the characters/cyborg/cubemap mirror surface for the warthog defuse metal, it will make it look alot more golden. just do it for every map you want it on, I cant do it or else i would have to post a ppf of every map and that would be stupid for one little skin.

EDIT: i messed the download up, the files in it, fixed now... if you have want the civie hog look and you have problems injecting the turret just swap it with cryo glass... nooby i know but it works for me.

Great job. I like the rims.

I just won't download, I'm sick of Golden Hogs/Civillian Hogs.

Anyways 8/10

Wouldn't just just saving that bitmap and injecting it over the diffusal metal do the same thing? then you would only need one patch file! =)

EDIT: I LOVE GOOOOOOOLDD!! =P

It looks perfect, as long as you're not trying to go for the Civi-Hog.

yeah, figure out a some sort of shade or color you can add to make it look more goldish instead of just like a shiny yellow paint job. For instance I would edit the bitmap for the cubmap mirror surface to make it a sort of tan color and see if that would do it.

At least I think that would do it, but i don't know because I can't try it myself because this computer doesn't have halo, but if it did have halo then that would be the first thing I would try! =)

There is no 'real' golden hog. There is a civilian hog though.

So I played around with the idea of a golden warthog last night on my own and came up with this before I decided to sleep..

Hmmm.. Maybe I'm color blind but, I still see shiney yellow, I think it needs a tint of dark green to it.
