--Planet AvP |Skin of the Week | Rostafarian Warrior

Rostafarian Warrior I had quite a few (1) people complain to me about my choice of last week’s skin. Well, to you I say: nothing appropriate for this introduction. All the scores are based out of a possible five points (or the number of  Alien symbols shown). Now, as for the skins, I go to the skin sites and pull what I think are the best ones. If you have any skin news, maybe a project that you are working on, or whatever, just E-mail me. Author: Raptor Red and Yeyinde Location: Raptor Red's Skins Basics Strength and camouflage can make a good warrior. However, they ‘can’ make a good warrior - it doesn’t mean it does. You also need knowledge and skill, and some form of natural advantage. So, what’s the Predator’s unique advantage? Its strength, definitely, and its amazing technology, but originally, the Predator’s main advantage was that, if it was discovered, it still had its overwhelming appearance. It didn’t just kick ass - it radiated kick-ass. Just like this skin. HUD Textures Raptor Red has gone to town with this skin’s HUD. Not only is the Predator’s HUD redone, but also its icons and even the sounds. The skin is changed in every aspect, and I must say it’s done really well. Score: Originality/Style For originality, I’d give it a 5. I’d do that with most of Raptor’s skins, though - she always changes them to be completely different from their original form and colour. The changes are simple, yet noticeable. The skin has been darkened greatly, for starters. The Predator's bare head has also been re-skinned, which is something I always find with Raptor’s skins. It’s also darker and has patches of red here-and-there, including the teeth. The armour has been given a colour-change, thanks to Yeyinde, the original maker of the skin. Instead of being blue, it’s now a nice black, which I find is much more fitting for the skin. Score: Overall Overall, this skin kicks ass. But there’s something I neglected to mention that makes it even better; the Celtic mask design. It’s a great improvement to the "AvP Movie Predator" skin and fits nicely on the model. Now, I highly recommend this skin for two reasons: one, it’s very nicely designed; secondly, it’s a complete makeover for the standard Predator, something I’ve seen very rarely.
