Remaking the irrlicht's fairy

Yeah it really looks a little bit like a dude but that could also be due to the fact that we are not seeing her in action, just screenies.

How about doin a md5 version with normal, height and specular map

that would be great ^^ especially if the devs really include the md5 stuff into the engine.

Don't really need it to be md5 to do that, just apply the necessary shaders to the model in-game!

I do think that her face is a bit masculine too JP^^.

It has a nice face, IMO, it lacks a bit of detail, and the eyes are a bit unexpressive. Really, what makes this fairy look that masculine i think that would be the neck, it should be a bit thinner, but overall, is a grat model

I'd say it's mostly the back of the jaw and possibly the chin.. (though the chin might not look bad if the back of the jaw was softened). Possibly the eyes could be better too and certainly the eyebrows are just mad... who has straight eyebrows??

Sorry if this seems like I'm just completely slagging off the model... Probably not nice to hear all this after the effort put in! It is a good model in all other respects!

EDIT: Oh and I'd say her skimpy 'clothing' could do with a bit of work... somehow... wouldn't know where to start myself but it just doesn't look like clothing.. just looks like part of her skin somehow...

IMo the ambient occlusion has to rebake. it's a little dirty and hard to clean off. i tried but it still look weird. rebake is a better solution.

i'd remove it. The ambient occlusion is fine when the surfaces are hard and dirty. The skin is a bit translucent, so, the colors tend to be red, before they darken completely. Or do that detail by hand in Photoshop.

Ok.

I'll rebake it in the weeked and put it in separate layer.
So you could tweak it the way you like using photoshop layer filters.

Ok hold down the horses i got a new UV map for the model with better pack, no distortion on hands or feets, and all in 1 texture (wings and body), ill upload it later.

Nice job, really looks good.

Although for the sake of development demonstration, I prefer Virion's remake of the mascot

I actually prefer this one, no offense intended but it looks more modern and realistic.

I would prefer example of the fairy example with ambient occlusion
