Thanks
and people still voted for wisp deluxe in that one survey
Wisp is popular. If that's what people are paying for, it's worth the time for DE and the artists to make it.
ok I'm not going to be salty about this because if she gets a deluxe then so be it (also 3/4 of her new TennoGen skins are aboslutely incredible and I can't wait until part 2 for Wisp Zamariu), she gotta get one at some point anyway BUT just because a frame is popular doesn't mean it's a good idea to basically oversaturate the market in one go because that might end up making future releases for that frame feel less special.
that's my take on the situation
also a frame being popular has never been such a glaring issue in TennoGen before or at least not to a pointt where it became really obvious
I don't want a skin because a frame is popular, I want a skin because it looks good. In wisps case I'm just lucky that these two overlap
now I don't know why exactly Gauss Zamariu got rejected and I won't assume anything that I don't know for sure but when looking at certain reddit posts where people ask questions like what the favourite frames of people are either gameplay wise or fashion wise or literally anything I can be sure as hell to find Gauss somewhere in there for pretty much any reason and yet we didn't get Gauss Zamariu and I'm sure people would have paid for that one.
(I would totally understand if DE said they have issues with it quality wise or don't want to accept two skins from the same skin family even though two skins from the same artist is generally a cool thing).
again, I'm not salty about this, I'm just trying to convey why I can fully understand why many players are not all too happy with four skins being released for one Warframe.
Can I request that someone bring back the original Ignis model as a cosmetic please.
isn't that just a variation of the Grakata?
That does look like a Grakata with a cable on it to me, yeh XD
Ya it does somewhat look like the Grakata.
There is nothing wrong with wanting the original Ignis model as a Cosmetic, to me it looked more like a Flamethrower.
I agree
I agr4
You 2 can hate all you want, But I believe it should be brought back as a Cosmetic.
?
You 2 can hate all you want
where tf does that come from?
I meant to say is you don't have to agree because you have your opinion but I believe it should be brought back as a cosmetic.
Did ||Narmer || become fashion-framable ? Cause they got sick looks
I have a question ! Warframe was cross Platforms ? I play in Switch and my Friend play in PlayStation
They do have the || narmer || color pallette in the market
Yeah… so maybe ||Narmer|| Tennogen soon ?
Perhaps
It's not in the guide, but if you want to try making something with that style, it may be allowed by the time your work is done.
Ha, that require skills in wich i'm NOT proficient
Here's a silly but real question; What the hell is this "Tennogen"?
tennogen is fan created cosmetics, basically
Mhm! If you see glam items in the market that have a little Blue Diamond within the picture, it's a Tennogen item that someone, or a group of folks, made. They tend to cost a specific amount and cannot be reduced via discounts and the like but they're pretty neat! My personal favorite so far has been the 'Graxx' line of skins for various Warframes
for clarification item discounts only exist on console
market is oversaturated when people will stop buying, this still didnt happen with wisp I suppose because othewise people wouldnt be makin skins for her 🙂
its basic market logic nothing too crazy
WF Fans around world who are proficient in 3D Art ( or 2D if u are concept artist) can create skins for game that are sold in tennogen section
Please spoilerblock TNW spoilers, thanks
Dont see that as a real spoiler in any sense especially when quest came out two months ago
just spoiler it, man
kinda silly... anybody who barely cares about warframe had to play it, or was living under stone and will not encounter this message in two and half life times xD but ok
DE themselves asked the community to keep in mind that not everyone has played it and that spoilers are still required.
yeah sure for those people even second dream is spoiler
and the community still tries not to outright spoiler the ||operator|| Spoiler Mode for them and Second Dream is how old?
we still call it "spoiler mode" for a reason
ayo
spoiler that 
@rotund nova
I'm telling you one day there's gonna be a throwing weapon skin that's just a can of beans
And i won't lie I'd love that
A glitch when you share your pet can also become inspiration please can someone make a Fiesta Kubrow skin! He looks like a fluffy piñata minus the kavat tail id like a fluffy bushy long fall to the floor streamer kubrow tail alternated color schemes in all areas multicolored. 🪅 ❤️ 🎉 🐕 we need a candy ephemera for it too please!
wonder if we can reskin the explosion to beans
Here is another part of the idea for fiesta kubrow skin the tail looks perfect in this one have fun with the idea peeps!
We must believe
With the power of imagination and belief we can do anything!
I mean, I did get a similar loadout glitch and....
funky
True :)
The fur type changed on everyones kubrows and your colors there look neat
it was reflective too, like if the dog moved the colors would shift, it was trippy and awesome, I wish that was a thing
Is there any other way of paying tennogen other than steam funds? 
on consoles it costs plat but uh on pc. nah. unless you made it then im sure you get it for free
TennoGen Round 21 Part 2 is available now!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ITS HERE MY BABY
"I put on my robe and Wisp-zard hat"
Show Xaku some love 😭😭😭
You did some good jerb
And your helmet looks like a UFO
I have a strong conviction that best helmets look like spaceships that landed onto the neck, and best spaceships look like guns.
awesome work
and Sevagoth 
Oh I’m working on a sevagoth skin currently
YOUR THE BEST I HOPE IT GETS ACCEPTED
i'll even get the skin once its done im a sevagoth main you see
Fingers crossed haha
100% crossed
cobalt this is amazing i love the effort you put into this and the detail is incredible 
I can’t take all the credit, I just had the initial concept and set up the body with tints and simple sculpts
Malayu did all the details
Your skin is really cool cobalt. I love the witch design. But the big protective cone for dogs on the neck triggered me a little bit. Maybe not the best you could do on this part. But all the rest of the skin is perfect. 👍
Was wondering if I did a sketch of a weapon skin if someone could make it happen. The Celestial Skin of Wisp got my brain going on some weapon designs. Got a hammer, a generic sword, a two handed sword, and a nunchuku(or however you spell it). There is a glaive one as well but the level of detail is kinda insane and I don't wish that on anyone.
Huh didn't the zamariu skin have big horns? I really want to see them in game. A little sad but i love the skins
I didn't know that thank you very much for telling me :)
how long does it take before you can log in after youve put in your password wrong to many times
Don’t see how this is tennogen related
xaku tennogen would be nice
That katix operator fashion is nice. I don't usually buy operator fashion, but I need to break that habit if that's released in game
This does not belong in this channel.
Why does Ordis keep tagging Tennogen as updates
Yeah, I get that, but why Updates
i think its more like community updating us rather than ingame updates but uhhhhh yeah
a lavos one is being done i saw, a xaku one being skeleton might be kind of hard since they cant change the body but some of these people nutty so maybe, you could also possibly pay someone to make em and then post em but idk the rules
@light smelt Yes But I think Xaku X Papurys Undertale
This Guy Maybe
And Lavos Like Aang From Avatar
Like The Abbilitys From lavos
okay uh 2 things, one is that tennogen cant modify the body only deluxe skins, and two crossovers are incredibly unlikely to ever happen in warframe lmao, brawlhalla is the master of crossovers but not warframe
also aang would be zephyr
@light smelt Nah But Lavos Has No skins
no yeah people are making some
but it wouldnt be aang
because they wont do crossovers prolly, and they cant modify the body
tennogen is strictly textures
bruh
But Why Not Crossover's Warframe Has Potenzial For Hype
because warframe just doesnt seem like one of those games, it has a massive lore and universe going on for it and it would just make 0 sense if, for example, one of the warframes has a skin thats just a normal person from another universe?
it would destroy what warframe has going on and i think the ONLY times any sort of crossover will happen is possibly weapons/syandanas stuff like that
unless they want to give excalibur the dude from ghostrunner
Multiverse ?
by another universe i meant creative copyrighted stuff from someone else
like we arent going to be seeing vauban as iron man any time in the future
but hey you can make suggestions on the warframe forums if you think de should reach out to other things for collabs
but currently this is out of the realm of tennogen
But with which side do you do these Tennogen things like your own skins, for example?
@light smelt
do you mean how to?
Yes
mumbles something about eternalism and crossovers
eternalism would likely only be able to travel to similar universes not harry potter lmao
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Clem
CLEMMM

Clem
yes but on wich frame???

Clem?
Time to mute this channel since it's become nothing but a spamfest
EtErNaLiSm MeAnS WaRfRaMe 40k CrOsSoVeR?!?!?
for Clem, obviously
More tennogen nyx skins when ‼️
obviously when she sells like wisp
revenant Tennogen I don't care how we just need more
Malayu just posted one on the workshop
Looks really nice
Revenant Wight Skin is up😄 #Warframe #tennogen
And Vulbjorn just finished his Rev skin too
anyone else sad theres not very many zephyr/oberon tennogen skins?
also the thing I would pay top dollar for is a fancy kuva chakkhurr tennogen skin
so when you get something from the tennogen store does it only work in the steam version?
because you can only get the items in there or...?
what
you can get tennogen on any console you can only vote for them to be added through steam though
some tennogen isnt on consoles because the artists didnt want them to be added because of the ruling that console players pay plat and not money
ahh ok
I wan excal tennogen with metallics as its major skin type :3
i really want a xaku tennogen i would greatly appreciate it if there was one 
saaaaame
nidus blade of the Lotus skin when?
oh yeah i completely forgot about it but i did vote 100%
i hope it gets added too though, being a nidus main and all
we are nidus mains so for our sake i hope its added
Sharing that it is released is fine here. Please remove the 'vote for it' line. Thank you.
lmao aight, he was wanting a blade of the lotus nidus and the only way for it to be added is if they voted for it
so i was just saying that, aint mine
I wasn't planning on changing Nidus' submission color scheme, but this has me thinking about it. For these screenshots I wanted something brighter since his old colors were so dark it was hard to see what was going on.

OOOOOO hel lyeah
Faiz Nidus
The correct place to post bugs is on the forums https://forums.warframe.com/forum/149-bug-reports/
cough cough grendel cough cough
fair
You know what would be cool, Sentinel Tennogen :0
Has anyone done a sentient inspired ember?
check tennogen on steam
fortunately not yet
*unfortunately
I know what I said
I don't think so and even if there was this isn't exactly the place to ask for that
You could maybe look into #tennogen-resources and see if you can work with the resources provided there. These are made for skin creation and not cosplay tho.
Please keep discussion in this channel Tennogen related. If you have questions about cosplay, the #fan-art channel is probably the best place to ask.
Oh, sorry I mistook tennogen for tennocon
When is the release of gauss prime planned?
doesnt seem like tennogen cough cough
what
I got rickrolled
English only in the server, please. 🙂
Its alright it was a rick roll anyways
This channel is meant for discussing TennoGen. 🙂
We do not allow discussion of moderation/bans here. Only #support-and-bugs can help you.
for me imo an eidolon tennogen or more blade of the lotus tennogen
but i agree with you
archwing tennogen would be dope too
put that on the forums homie
what is tennogen?
community designed skins for weapons & warframes
Also Syandanas, armour parts (no leg pieces yet), Spoiler mode accessories and landing craft skins
is there a sight to showcase user made content that has be acepted to been in the game ?
site*
Well there's the Steam Workshop that has every TennoGen submission ever be they accepted, pending for next round or disqualified. You can also check the forums for posts about what TennoGen pieces got accepted in each round.
And if you just want to see all accepted items you can check the ingame market and look for the TennoGen tab. It might not have all items on console tho.
and i was wondering what the shop was for 😛
next and final question is there a way to see the market off console ?
like in-game market...? not really, no
I'd say on PC but that would be a snarky response
it has same stuf with same prices no ?
far from it, no
if you're familiar with Steam, Tennogen creators get a direct share of revenue each time their item is bought through Steam
and that is because they are bought with real currency, not plat
unlike on consoles
understood,thanks for the immediate response , shame saw some really good stuf on tenogen...
that's also the reason why some Tennogen items don't make it on consoles
Someone have login Problems?
Wrong place to ask that
So...I want to make a tennogen skin but I have no experience would someone be willing to help me?
help you with what?
I'm bad at modeling
learning modeling is not an option?
._ .
I mean...I was thinking I could just work on this with someone
I can draw fine but I need someone who could port it to a model
ah, ok you're looking for a collaboration
Yeah
Personally I want to do a new limbo, Caliban, or Xaku skin
first attempt and you want to go for Xaku?
respect
I've been working on these designs for a while I call the line Vocus particularly angled around cloaked mystery looks, I think it works best on limbo but Xaku can probably pull it off
how do you want to pull off the cloak thing?
For limbo at least the idea was to have the cloak drape over the front for a light shadow and have it drape down the left shoulder
I've been playing limbo since day 1, and the way I've come to view him would be a sort of prowling assassin, which I decided would be a good look for a lot of frames
do you have any images? providing example work will surely help with someone wanting to do a collab
A very bad quick sketch I did...in my free time I'll do a more detailed one
so the cloakiness comes from the helmet?
Yes
Unless it was a deluxe skin in which case it would be an added syandana
nice
I could see this working as a line
Xaku in particular was the one I was most excited about granted they would shed the cloak on vast untime
well, good luck then. I would totally love seeing this realized
Thanks and to anyone who sees this conversation pm me and we can get to chatting
Wip Xaku Vocus
I went for a gas mask sort of look for the helmet with a single eye hole at first I wanted to cloak the whole body but realized how lazy that would look so I instead went for a half cloak
More complete
Thoughts? I know it's not amazing I'm doing quick sketches with an online ref
It was hard to change Xakus base design for this granted he has so many distinguishing features specifically his shoulders and left leg being the problem areas
well you cant change body design for tennogen but i mean the helmet concept is possible and i would reccomedn even drawing over xaku for like material concepts but that body cloak thing prolly wont work lol
That's...sort of the whole skin, so maybe as a specific syandana
Or an attachment similar to hydroids jacket
That'd be an auxillary and TennoGen can't meddle with those
yeah but thats a deluxe
the helmet is doable and you could make some sort of material change to match it but youd have to put some heavy details in
Hmm
I suppose I could always just use it as a tennogen syandana and showcase it on this Xaku
Although...I could save the idea as a whole and remodel for a Xaku deluxe
Then I also get the option to design a weapon skin...hmmmmm
Yeah...I'll design afew Vocus type Syandanas for tennogen along side the skins I'm interested in colabing on and we could display them on the ideal skins
it wrapping around the warframe is incredibly unlikely tho sadly
I might take that design for a community Warframe and change it up a bit I have afew ideas anyway...could be a fun goof
I'm curious if we'll end up with more Graxx skins for the remaining Warframes, or if that ship has long since passed
Because honestly, I'd love to see a Graxx skin for like, Xaku, or Hildryn, or any other frame post-Fortuna
Xaku will look weird tbh if that guy had a grax skin
Like is it going to be cables instead of roots?
idk but they could rock it
Wisp is my baby, a lich inspired skin for her would be delicious 
she got enough skins for now lmao but you mean grineer right
There are still pre-Fortuna frames that haven't gotten any Graxx love. I would absolutely not mind if Faven puts more focus on some of those. Having an Oberon Graxx would be a dream (although I understand that his shape isn't exactly perfect for Grineer arthetic but who knows).
wrong chat but yeah its comin
I’ve been wanting to do a skin for xaku for a while but I’m conflicted due to the armor flying off when you’re a Skelton
Yes….Xaku is an interesting challenge for tennogen
I believe in you
Ok perfect
Maybe not...there's a 1 hour timer 🤣
@light smelt maybe let's wait until moderators answer
well all i know is it cant go here, try the reddit or other warframe servers ig
Yes
I sent the image...Hope moderators answer in a positive way
Really hope for that
Cuz I love that Ash possible Deluxe Skin
That's just regular Ash with Umbra scarf, a hood and gold accents. The only prime design with less prime details is Frost Prime.
maybe it goes for an umbra design at best, something like that hardly passes for a deluxe because like Rallen said it's just Ash Prime with some recolors and added accessories
if you buy a tennogen skin in steam can you keep it outside of the steam version of the game or not?
Not at this time. Other PC versions, yes. Consoles, no.
Yes. If you log in with the PC account, it doesn't matter which launcher you use, it's still the same account.
you keep it even if you don't launch it through Steam, e.g. through Discord or Epic, because PC content remains on PC servers
Formally you need Steam version to buy Tennogen content, due to how Workshop system inherently works
true
But once you buy it, it will remain on your account, you just won't be able to buy other TG content outside of Steam, until you use Steam again
ahh ok
and in case you are worried about accounts, you don't have to make a new WF account for Steam - just install Steam version, run it, and log in with your credentials as you normally do
ok tx for the help
I've been having alot of issues with connecting to relays, i can't see my friends in the dojo and every relay is empty, ive done almost everything i can think of, and the official website says my login keeps failing so i cant make an official support ticket, any help?
What failure message are you getting for trying to log in?
I've managed to log in and make a support ticket got that figured out, but I'm still not able to connect to any dojos or any relays, im there but its purely empty and I'm not able to trade at dojos as if i was there by myself when I'm not
when is the next tennocon?
This is for tennogen, not tennocon discussion.
However the date for tennocon has yet to be revealed.
Tennogen are fan made skins for syandana, Warframe and weapon skins and much more
Tennocon is THE Warframe convention held once a year, usually around late June / early July (if I remember correctly) organized by DE
I just got Rhino, and the blade of the lotus skin is just absolutely gorgeous ! I wish I had 7€ left
i wish there were more kuvael tennogen skins
Be the change
"I wish there was a Warframe movie"
"Be the change lol"
I know it exaggerated as fudge but still the same sentiment
In my context quite a number of TG creators aren't industry professionals, but just people who had found free time to study the craft and dedicate it to create the content for everyone to enjoy; inherently implying that the person can also become one in the long run
While "wishing for content" in the chat meant for creators of that specific content is like coming to an Italian restaurant, stating "I wish there was more variety of pasta" (not a perfect analogy but works under the context)
In my suggestion, instead, the "change" is something more tangible like a creative concept of the skin, which helps to push the idea forward, open up some discussion around it, and give the creators a greater incentive to make it happen
I'm personally not a fan of suggesting to do something yourself when it comes to creative work. You can feel inspired but that alone doesn't fabricate good work. A wish as simple as "I wish there was more of X", especially in relation to something as "niche" as the Kuvael skin line, doesn't exactly justify learning all those things if you're not really enthusiastic about it.
For example, I wanted to get into TennoGen to make a Gauss helmet but I do not have the time to learn blender and make textures so I had to drop it simply due to time and motivation constraints. Does that mean I shut up about wishing for more Gauss TennoGen? Hell nah. Only difference is I don't care which creator does it.
I never told them to shut up about wishing, that's the thing
If there's always a bare minimum you can do about it, let's do that bare minimum
Stir up the talk about what you want to get, give it small ideas here and there, open up those possibilities, all that to encourage the creative process
I'd love to know what frames you'd want to see a skin for and what particular themes to have it inspired by
If it's Kuvael, then what frames and what particular enemy type to use for inspiration
I do apologize for vagueness of my "be the change", considering how vastly devoid of meaning that response has become in modern age
But I have to confess, the number of "I wish for X" I've seen tossed out there with no follow-up discussion or ideas by same people on the same topics, just drives me nuts
I never told them to shut up about wishing
Not directly, no but it can be interpreted as "do it yourself or stop exclaiming that wish". Not saying that's what you meant but it leaves too much space for interpretation.
You're bringing up a good argument there
Other than "I agree/disagree" there isn't really much one could respond
so having more input on that'd be nice
Personally, I always feel that encouraging folks to try new things is a positive way to respond to a wish for more of specific tennogen items.
I'd love to know what kind of Warframes they would like to have Kuvael skins
that is generally true but it's also easier said than done. I don't consider "be the change" a good motivator for these kinda things.
Yeah, I will have to agree on that statement, "be the change" was a crude response on my end
not terrible, but better worded it probably wouldn't have led me to respond like I did which wasn't exactly great either
Perhaps not well worded, but the sentiment is positive. More options is always nice to have.
Is there a way for me to use tennogen skins without using the steam variant for warframe? I really like the standalone launcher way better.
Yesn't, you can launch Warframe via Steam, buy the skins there and switch back to the standalone and keep using your skins
Since you are always using the same account on PC no matter from where you launched the game you're only limited to how to get the skins in the first place but not what you can do after you bought them.
Due to Tennogen purchases being tied in directly with Steam workshop, in order for their creators to get a direct cut from purchases, you are required to use Steam in order to buy those skins
I think I wasn't clear enough, my problem isn't about purchasing the skins, more so using them. I bought protea's technocron skin from the steam workshop, and so I wanna use it without reinstalling warframe using steam
Rallen answered that question
in short, after buying you keep skins on PC platform no matter the launcher, standalone or not
are there gonna be more tennogen skins to come this year
cause i was hoping for at least one of the blade of the lotus skins to be accepted
Yes, they do multiple a year and they already did one round in 2 bouts so uh prolly more in a couple months lol
but yeah blade of the lotus nidus would be coolio
Is there any Titania tennogen in creation ?
Check the steam workshop and filter for newest submissions.
If there isn't anything on the first one or two pages there likely is no Titania stuff for next round.
had to buy the wisp coven skin 2 times
through the steam store first then through the game
was it your first tennogen transaction?
ye
you didn't buy it two times
unless you actually saw that the price for the skin got removed two times from your bank account
but I doubt that because "buying through the game" isn't possible if we talk about real money stuff and not the things you can buy for plat
Ash should receive a samurai skin
It would be nice if the skin is platinum cost , not real money
They do on console if I remember correctly
Have fun making that out with the TennoGen creator
Im just giving out ideas
I'm not good at drawing and stuff
?
No, not the ash samurai part, the fact that you suggest it's bpught with plat and not actual money
Unless you're talking about a deluxe skin but then this is not the right place to discuss those
its to support the people who made it so idk if maybe if you get a skin accepted you can ask for it to cost plat instead but i un knew
Get a skin?
Does reference work?
Like let me go through Pinterest
Ad hunt for a reference
uh tennogen cant change the model at all, only the texture except for the helmet so gonna be hard to make a good samurai
also by get a skin accepted i mean you made a fully functional skin and it got voted into the game
Found these in Pinterest
Something like this
I don't like how ash lower and front body has low coverage
Looks weird
it would be nice if ash gets remodeled
thats a deluxe then
no
Or plats?
tennogen is real money, deluxe is plats, tennogen are made by non de people that are voted in, deluxe are de made that change the body model
night hunter nidus is a tennogen that changes the material, phyrke nidus is a deluxe made by de
Oh
and ash already has 2 deluxes
Shroud one right?
But that's a ninja
He original skin fits perfectly as a samurai themed Warframe
sure but thats...thats ash. anyway you talkin about deluxes instead of tennogen so more fanart or discussion than tennogen
but i mean hey get a tennogen modeler to make a samurai texture
thats why you get another tennogen modeler to do it
I have alot of ideas for Warframe skins and stuff but lacking the drawing and skills and stuff
get someone else to do it, commissions
I think I'll try to ask one of my friends
tennogen are made by non de people that are voted in
Not true. Votes have almost zero effect on whether a skin gets accepted or not. That's still entirely DE's decision. I say almost zero because it could be seen as an indicator of what the general audience wants but a higher vote count doesn't automatically mean a higher chance for the skin to get accepted.
not to mention that the TG items are still given feedback for possible improvements behind the scenes, and worked on accordingly, when DE are interested in them
☝️
quick heads up for Garuda Prime for those who have TennoGen for her:
Garuda Prime comes with the Prime Toggle for TennoGen, but her Talons will not take custom TennoGen textures due to the base model being too different. This will not affect the player's ability to customize her tints, they'll simply be using the Garuda Prime Talon textures. Regular Garuda will still have the ability to use custom TennoGen Talon textures without issue.
If you're trying to equip your TennoGen on your new Garuda Prime and notice her Talons are still using the Prime textures, this is why. Not a bug!
Why not make the Talons dependant on prime details?
or have their own toggle/model selection
that surely is gonna make this much easier, yes
Why in hell this dude daemonster didnt make this in to tennogen skin in the end???
Led makes the 3d model, daemonstar is just the concept artist
Also Led's not working on too many skins at the same time hence why they also get auploaded to the Steam workshop one at a time and not all in one go. And since Gauss Zamariu didn't make it in last round it needs to be reworked for next time which takes time that can't be used to make new skins for other Warframes.
There's a Grendel Zamariu concept too that I think is being worked on by Led so that takes time too.
DE Doesn't really advertise why some skins are chosen and some are not. Popularity is one metric they use for consideration, but not the only one. If they have specific feedback they will send it to the creator(s).
If it's any consolation, the syandana is available in game.
yea i know and i have it 😄 but i want that skin 😄 for excal
cause its not wisps obviously 😛
Hey any good 3D modelers here who would be interested in colabing with me on skins for some under used frames or frames with few skins Lavos, Xaku, Caliban, Limbo, Atlas
Any of those, really..I wanted to make an aquatic type series with interesting helmet designs
My personal favorite, a lavos helmet that looks like a small grineer aquarium with a jellyfish inside and some eye marks
that is cool but i wonder if they would even accept that
I like the idea of small sea creatures in the helmets as if they were controlling the Warframe
The limbo helmet is a bit...weirder...it's more of a fish bowl as the head...and during the emotes he would remove the whole head...it might be better as a deluxe skin actually
That or cowboy limbo...
I like limbo a lot
valid, i also wish a modeler would help me with my nidus helmet but sheet at this point its looking like i should spend 5 years taking classes to do it myself
Personally I want to become a known tennogen/deluxe designer for this game...
I've seen so many concepts float through this games existence for fashion frame...and so many of them fall short for lack of proper armor, skins, helmets, or Syandanas
i just want a nidus helmet with hair like the saryn skins and that wisp helmet
I have a concept drawing for a nidus deluxe skin sitting around somewhere, the theme was infested king
gimme in dms to make me happy
The mutations make it look like he has a crown/regal armor
gimme
I have to find it
It's around my room somewhere
All I remember was the bundle had a syandana, a great sword skin, and some poses
The great sword skin was double bladed with a space down the middle and a square hilt
The syandana was a long cloak type battle cape with frayed ends and a Deimos esc pattern on the back
careful because this is leaving tennogen talk and the mods will slam us with the ban hammer
uhhhhhhhhhh this warframe really doesnt have an offtopic sooooooooo the other warframe discord? my dms? dont know
thatd be cool
Well back to tennogen...I also want to design some skins for my play groups mains, Ember, Atlas, Vauban, Limbo
We have a very....split play group
All with a lovely entrati theme
The idea of the skin itself would be to synergize with prime details
Hello every one I would like to say that i am a huge fan of warfame and also crazy about moon-knight. I have been playing this game daily more than 3 months and i really liked the fashion sense in here. So let me get to the main point, i really would love if a cool skin of moon night is added in warframe for Ash (With cool moon shaped shuriken). And if there are moon knight fans they would also agree with me.
uh i would generally say that the shuriken part is quite unlikely and a moon night skin is impossible but a moon night LIKE skin is possible if you go to the right tennogen artist
but uh goodluck
or helmet???
what
i would appreciate a cool moon Knight 'helmet'
if you want a helmet that is a perfect replica of moon knight thats never going to happen but in the same way that one ash helmet looks like batman someone could make a moon night like helmet but theres already a hooded helmet for him so
ya u are talkin about the shroud one, uuh if i add the white colour on the helmet skin, the colour still remains unchanged.
dont play ash wouldnt know, but again if you want a moonknight resembling one then yeah go to some tennogen artists and ask them if they are up for making one but yknow they usually like doing their own projects so goodluck gamer
Thanks
Can we go beg the guy who makes the blade of the lotus skins. I want all of the warframes also want the next one to be nova.
would be nice if there was a lotus style to each frame. knights of the lotus has a nice ring to it
Pc has “blade of the lotus” skins made by a guy called beast. But it’s steam exclusive. I think the best your gonna get is the dex stuff.
I wanna push beast’s stuff so that we can get a complete set.
||would also be a good idea to have different skins based upon which you choose between natah lotus or margullis||
if its possible
I believe DE has mentioned before that they don't want to lock folks out of things like that.
I will pay somebody to design a helmet for Garuda that has a hat like Freddy Krueger so I can complete my look.
goodluck on that one
I would kill for a Graxx skin for Lavos. Faven always makes such awesome designs lol
There's a Kuvael one out there
Yep for Mirage and i want it
I own the Graxx Mesa and Harrow. I want the Graxx Nekros and Kuvael Mirage.
do you guys know the reason why i cannot use new loka sigil on rhino? i equip the sigil but standing do not generate
Wrong place to ask, please visit #players-helping-players
Sounds like a bug. You should report it on the bug report forums for your platfomr.
ok thanks
When I use the Garuda Tiamat skin with prime details on, the talons look like they're missing textures. Anyone else having this issue? (I'm on Switch btw)
I think I've heard the prime claws aren't compatible with skins for some reason
Yep, Taylor mentioned it, follow the link to the message
#tennogen-creation-discussion message
But the way it looks on the screenshot seems different from what she described
I have the same issue on Xbox
Hi!
I'm interested in Tennogen. I'll be using blender.
Anyone have any pointers on what Blender brush to use?
Ok I don't have talent to use any blender/ stuff but i wanna make a suggestion
What if we had epualettes (or shoulder straps) like from people from the 18th century? I will glady buy it from anyone :D
You mean those? That could be interesting as shoulder armour 
Тут есть русские ребята ?
bro
Hi there, sorry, but this is primarily an english server
Привет, извините, но это в основном английский сервер.
are there any official Russian servers?
official? not that i'm aware of. sorry.
Yes!
Besides fanciness is key :D
i totaly agree
Hey so I'm somewhat interested into getting into making TennoGen, but the thing is I kinda would like to make a skin or at least a helmet for Hyldrin. How difficult would it be for a somewhat beginner to tackle Hildryn specifically?
as difficult as anyone else i would assume
theoretically any of the tennogen helmets could've been for other frames and we wouldn't have known until the body would've been designed
EX: what is going on in #tennogen-showcase-your-content currently. You don't know who that helmet is for until you have the body
Yeah that's fair lol
im thinkin its gauss
One thing that kinda kills me about some Warframe designs is that for a good chunk of them have destinctive body designs, like Hildryn, Grendel, Saryn, even Mesa, Vauban, etc. so you can generally tell what Warframe someone is using regardless if the helmet they're wearing looks nothing like the Warframe's base helmet.
However for base Excalibur, there's almost nothing from his base body that differentiates him from other frames, his body type is literally just "default male" lol
So uhhh upon further inspection, I'm starting to see why creating a skin concept for Hildryn is a bit of a nightmare
That is waaay too much intricate detail to re-imagine it to look like something else
Well Hildryn is a nightmare so.
It just sucks because I'm sure it's possible to make something functional with her body model, it just takes so many creative and mental leaps to do so
I'm sure it could be possible to make a grineer-style concept for her, since she has so many circles and sphere shapes around her body, but what sucks is that there's also so many triangles and spikes in her design as well, which makes it hard to make something original that looks good with both shapes being spammed all over in her shape language
Why must forsake us DE 
I just want to make a Solaris United skin for momma Hildryn
@rotund nova will you add anything to the helmet or is the design set as is?
I originally had an idea for optics, but ditched it. Is there anything you would like to see?
no but that helmet doesn't say Excalibur at all and that could be enough reason to not be accepted
This is actually a common misconception
it is now?
Yeah
are you going to elaborate on that?
Sure, any submitted item does not have to meet any requirement for "looking like" or "reading as" the warframe it is for. I mean it needs to fit the base mesh of the neck, but that is about it.
For example, beastbuster made a flame mohawk for excal. When that it typically ember's weelhouse
do you have any definite proof for that?
because that sounds kind of a stretch
I know the rules
I am working on things atm, so I dont have the time to find and post a SS of it
But if I have time I will post it later for you
Until then you can take a look
Did you see the optics I had going on?
not only that, but Excal BotL is a bad example. Yes, it has a flame mohawk but it also the distinct Excalibur horn almost all of his TennoGen items have.
yes and they make it look like it's meant for Ash
even Caduto has that little horn even if it's not as big as on other skins/helmets
Look no horn man
Thats broken eyelash
no, that is not a stretch
that is the horn incorporated into the design
Anyway it is upto DE ,
even Ion has it and Yatus just ripped off Gurren Lagann
If u call this horn then
Moonman show him sideview
It is uust w.ip
With the goggles?
Yeah
Hmm, kk
But I may ditch them, so, could be moot point
It is still w.i.p and he maybe stretch it abit
again, the silhouette may read like a horn but it's not, it's a visor
Wasnt your whole point for a silohuette?
Especially Yatus' excal
Everyone
I never said that
Im just confused
I cant feel my nose
Anyways, I really dont have time right now to have a discussion regarding semantics
I never said anything about the silhouette of the other skins
DE decides and gives feedback
Gwuys
Excalibur dont have to be horn
E
Rallen we have proof of we dont need horn on his forehead
one last thing, Zato for example doesn't have a front horn but instead it was put at the end of whatever that thing in his face is. All I'm saying is that your helmet doesn't read like Excal like enough people in #tennogen-showcase-your-content have proven and that could be a serious issue to consider.
I never said that the horn has to be on the front either but whatever
Rallen we both shoould sleep now
Goodnight man
it is not even 8pm here
Tennogen skins don't need to fit the idea of what the original is, they just often do because it's easier to get inspiration from the original since you're working on it.
It's not a rule that's stated anywhere in the guidelines, i myself have never gotten any of my skins rejected for this reason, nor do i think others like erneix has
remind me, which of your skins got accepted into the game? Revenant draugen where you very much incorporated his eidolon energy into the beard and Algalyst Harrow that has a pope hat helmet just like default Harrow
those two very much read Revenant and Harrow, but this doesn't despite it being a good looking concept and wip
The head doesn't necessarily have to conform to the design of the Warframe's base helmet as long as the redesigned helmet has a strong enough theme with the rest of the skin.
For example, base Vauban's default helmet looks kinda like a train with the weird chin-blade, but Vauban's Graxx tennogen skin has almost none of his default helmet's shape language
Yes, they read the designs of the original, but that's because i wanted them to, because i think it's cool, but that doesn't make it a requirement
I never claimed it to be a requirement!
I said it might potentially cause issues
nothing definite
fair enough
Hey you don't need to be so aggressive We are just exited to show our work, and I do not like the way you are talking to my friends. It is okay that you have feedback, but it is also okay for me to choose to take it or ignore it. Thank you for contributing to the conversation. Please be mindful of the way your words may be interpreted. I can not speak for the way anyone else feels, but I felt that you were being aggressive to me in our conversation.
Hi do u know if these trade one there I’m new
Probably the wrong channel
I'm sorry but claiming that none of their stuff got rejected for not directly following the design language is not a good argument when there's not a single item that got accepted despite not following the design/theme
Let's please remain civil guys.
I think there are definitely some tennogen helmets that are a pretty big stretch. Frost Ion and Oberon Destrier are some I can think of off top
People seem to mistake Destrier for an Excal helmet a lot, actually haha
Frost ion is a very good example
hi flurp :)
I’m looking forward to start creating, how hard are Titania or Nidus ?
I don't personally know myself, but a decent indicator of the "difficulty" of designing and creating a tennogen skin for a warframe I've found myself is how detailed and intricate their physical model is and/or if it has one or more changing or moving parts, such as Gauss's engine parts around his body or Grendel's opening belly.
These things aren't super exact indicators, but they are a good litmus test to gauge how challenging a certain frame could be to make a skin for.
Nidus is hard, not only does he have moving parts, but also complex geometry
You might find difficulties in this if you've never baked textures before
I think one of the reasons why excalibur has so many skins, is because he is easy to start with, his structure is very simple
Yeah his body shape is literally just "default man" lol
Imagine a canvas, it's flat and easy to draw on like excalibur. Now imagine if that canvas had the bums ridges and random shapes like a cliff. That's probably how it feels like to work on hildryn
Not to mention the fact that it's incredibly challenging to even come up with a solid design concept for her when she has so many spheres and spikes around her body that keep her body model solidly in one specific aesthetic
I see, thanks for the help ! I might try a Nova or a Ash to start with
Is that for Ash?

This a place where we think of new armor and even newer skins not to fight about mutiple languages
Still waiting on an infested pustule helmet for Mag ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Yeah, and her arm coils could be made to look like tendrils
Maybe the forearm sections could have teeth inside em
Ok I need this
the spirals on her arms as winding infested tentacle bits
Yep, exactly
or something like a biomechanical skin where it's a regular suit and you can see infested bits like the tendrils sticking out
portraying the parasitic side of the infestation before it fully transformed its victim
oh my god where is Vulbjorn
Try asking for help in #players-helping-players - this channel is for discussing tennogen creations.
You should walk in the door will open itself
An infested Vauban skin would be interesting, most of his helmets/skins are pretty tech centric
Im not that good as you can all see but it would bee cool if can some 1 make it like this and finished in this similar direction,that would be cool 🙂
Looks kinda like a Rhino helmet
frost first helmet have this horn...but helemt shape is more like something that can be also cool for deluxe body skin 🙂 and its just example that diferent direction can look cool on him...that is not mushroom style 🙂
"Mushroom style"
have you seen Ivara?
looks like a stormtrooper helmet with a horn on it. or is that what it is
Ah a person of culture
You know. Something I'm really curious about anyone tackling is adding more bird shaped helmets for Zephyr
There's currently only a few
I originally didn't understand what you were making and I genuinely thought you were just trying to make a smashed in war-damaged helmet.
i whose going for some grineer helemt vibe and direction...becouse i think he can look cool in that style...
Clem
She have a head but mushroom hat on the top. But he dont have head shape he just have mushroom on the top 😅

Hello, as mentioned above, if you are experiencing crashing issues, please submit a ticket with DE directly on Zendesk website, link provided in #support-and-bugs channel. Perdon, unfortunadamente el discord server so habla ingles. Si necesitas ayuda por favor ver a #support-and-bugs para ayuda.
Yooo wait @rotund nova, are you thinking of keeping the string/mesh on the helmet? If you are, it looks really cool
It is hard to implement
and DE may not even like it
If I can get it to a point where I like it, then I will submit it with the helmet, it would be very easy to remove if DE does not like it because it is a separate sub tool
just dont know if I want to waste time on it if I can not make it look cool
I think there is something cool in there, it definitely makes the skin as a whole look a lot more visually interesting
curved physics parts do not always play nice
@rotund nova is it possible to make the skin with 2 helmets like excal graxx?
or its against Tennogen rules?
I think that was more of a one time exception that only worked because Faven made a sort of 2.0 helmet for his Excal Graxx skin. The original helmet was only a reskin of the default helmet anyway so that probably played a role too.
considering that Excal Graxx didn't have 2 helmets at first and the second one got added later on
Hah wow. Thats even more cool and unique…
Sir, this channel is for the discussion of tennogen items.
Typically no, if you have an account or game issue, support is your only option.
unfortunately the people said no, lol
Mobile Version of Tennogen tools? You're nuts!
Nothing yet, wrong channel btw
What did that person sent?
Asking about mobile release, not really on topic
Definitely looks cool, guessing it was inspired by Danish Frogmen Corps?
Would separate it from Excal Graxx too, either that or something gas mask/night vision helmet inspired would be an alternative
Yes it was, and I am still fond of the idea. It is just really hard to pull off to be honest
Even technically
This channel is for the discussion of tennogen, not gameplay.
So, honest question here, is there a reason why Hildryn have so little tennogen content? I'm wondering if it's a technical issue or just lack of interest
I think its because players who play as hildryn are a small amount compared to other frame's
Lack of interest. Most artists make skins for frames they enjoy.
Yeah, thought as much
I'm trying to buy a tennogen skin and I keep getting an error when I authorize the payment on Steam 😦 I've bought tennogen before, so I don't know if it's me, Steam or DE :/
Warframe and steam are a bit iffy. A way to get past the error is to import the amount to your steam wallet and purchase.
Tried that already, no luck 😦 sent tickets to Steam and DE, hopefully I'll get a response tomorrow
With the initiate packs and some tennogen items it takes one or two attempts. My luck anyway, I hope it sorts itself out for you.
It's probably a lack of interest, but also the fact that her model is incredibly difficult to create a skin concept for, since she has so many weird shapes around her body like balls and spikes that are hard to translate into alternate designs
keep in mind tennogen can only change the model of the helmet, everything else is textures
aside from lack of interest, it's also due to her complex geometry, as I've been told by at least a couple TG artists in the past
Weary cool nice job 😊👏🏻👏🏻
Very interesting 👀
i take it no tennogen voidshell skins?
no word on this yet
my guess is never cause they would want the monopoly on that much like deluxe skins
but i guess time will tell
Hard to say. We know old skins will not be getting the voidshell treatment, but I think new ones might be possible. I think there would be technical constraints to resolve first.
Let's gooooo
Sadly, for technical reasons, I will have to ditch the veil 😭
goodbye, frogman
Aw poop, rip veiled excalibur
That White color? Idk id you plan to change that color but I think it really pops
Just consider not making it another greyblack like other grazx skins. Maybe a sandy tan or something...
Where is the scarf syandana? I remember someone showcasing a scarf syandana and now it is no longer updated
i wish there was one
whyyy
Damn yareli and xaku out here with no skins rip..
xaku's files are a nightmare
You right
and it's hard to design a skin for a frame where you'll rarely see it due to vast untime
Yeah sadly :<
gotta make that skeleton sparkle if you gonna make a xaku skin
LMFAO make it look like a disco ball.
that being said i would love to do a xaku skin LOL
Ain't there one coming?
a deluxe skin
Yareli deluxe when 🙄
I mean wisp went forever without skins
And now she's getting the left and right
You can’t get Excal Prime anymore and this is the Tennogen Discussion channel.
Wisp was getting tennogen attention from day 1, it just took a while to get them into acceptable shape and then the next tennogen round to come around
She's one of those Frames being loved by players for multiple reasons, so not surprised she got a Dex Skin for this year
Yeah ... And the biggest Reason she s so loved is obvious ...
Sorta wish we had more syandanas that look like backpacks
Xaku Deluxe? Officially shown? Was it the Necramech skin by Liger Inuzuka?
Liger never made a Necramech Xaku concept
at least not that I'm aware of
this is the concept btw
with the right texture work I'm sure similar effects can be achieved with TennoGen but I'm certain that'd be a pita
just in case any of you were wondering if you have to be a good artist to do tennogen, here is my sketch and final sculpt, lol
Excal
I'm gonna invest in this
helmet's looking good as a bonus it would go with those grineer weapons
like vulkar or twin grakatas
I m not that much in to grinner style but I love how it looks like on some cool frames like excalibur for example. Yea we have 1 in this direction but this makes him somehow unique in his own way. And im definitely going to buy this skin,and im really hoping to see more frames in this direction…
Gyre files are now available! https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1309629-gyre-files-now-available/
Team is still finalizing round 22 but expect an announcement sooon(TM)
Gyre’s files are now available on the Steam Workshop! Like all of our Warframes since Revenant, she uses new tech and thus is missing textures in her ZIP file. It’s on you as the creator to make these maps yourself without any reference files. Below is a list of what is included in the ZIP: Norma...
Shame the veil couldn't happen but pretty solid alternative nonetheless
Could work a psuedo head mounted NVG in as his "horn" somehow but might be too much work so idk
I would love to see some Lavos stuff 👀. Maybe a more infested style where his snakes are infested to?
sorta reminds me of nezha empyrean skin
well, both were made by the same artist
I wish there were more void focused skins in the game.
well void only recently got a style
yeah, but all that really happened is a rework of the immortal skins but with more detail lol
And less patterns (like drawings)
yea thats not what i meant, voidshell isnt really a void style
yea
GUN TENNOGEN when
?
for forever
nooooooo
Never say never but probably never
wait is there not gun tennogen and just melee, i just realized
sybaris overload skin exists
GUNS GUNS GUNS
Is there a recruiting tab?
Hey, please check out #757632548842111086 to find your platform, recruiting channels will become available to you.
This will probably never come out but damn does it look sick
I think with a slight helmet redesign, this isn’t outside the realm of possibility
is that volt?
Obvious Phantasy Star Online reference skin?
A HUcast with accompanying Mags.
Yatus makes surely some great work tbh
I'll never stop to be amazed when i see his work.
Tbf the art isn't by Yatus
would love to see a savitar type skin for volt
Ordis nechramech just came to my brain for no reason today
imagine Ordis controlling a necramech is both funny and scary at the same time ;/
Who's in control now, suckers
Imagine Otak controlling a Necramech

This channel is for discussing tennogen, not gameplay.
wrong channel
#players-helping-players is where you will want to go. 🙂
Why do people always come here for unrelated questions and issues?
Probably new players, just like looking for a clan in in-game QnA
That's kind of different. QnA implies that you can ask any questions there and the ingame chats sometimes aren't exactly obvious about what they are about.
I mean if they remotely know the English language they could scroll up in these chats and see what's being discussed. Even if they don't know what exactly TennoGen is, they could try to put in the effort to check if this is really the channel they are looking for.
Yeah, you got a point
Hear me out: was inspired by DasterCreations on Twitter to ponder this....Archon Skins/Helmets that you can get by fighting various archons like Amar and Nira. Maybe new armor pieces salvaged from their remains that can be put on your operator/Drifter
But also...More Archon Battles that adapt to either Squad or Solo gameplay
Exactly, but you get stuff for your Frames
Like...for example a Nira rematch where you can grab the headpiece for Mag
Or a robust and menacing Rhino Amar skin
Just need to place creatures with the frames
i am surprised that there was no excal archon. also why is this being brought up in tennogetn
Daster's piece in the fanart kinda inspired this discussion cause if folks made stuff based off the archons, might give more options for various fanbases
Archon-based Skins
A animal for each of the 49
who will be a koala?)
Grendel
I mean banshee already has a Bat motif, anyway, Oberon has the deer, Loki the Goat, Hydroid the Octopus/squid...
oh thank god someone who doesn't call Oberon "the goat"
and yet people have been calling him that for years
It's the feet
🤷
Well now that NW has enabled Multiverse and Animalistic Archon frames, I think it was time for this
even those are actually deer feet
like people are just blind when it comes to his design language
Ye, I think a good deer Archon skin could fix that
Hmmm maybe a pairing of the two where they are butting heads goat vs deer...

excal archon should just be a sword wielded by someone else
whats radial javelin
nope, dont have that one 
yea, i did.. honestly i really do not remember whats radial javelin is, thanks for the reminder :D
Excal is more of a rhino than actual rhino
Well since Rhino got the Wolf Amar....
;3
This could be a big collection
Excal the Beaver or Equivalent. Give us like... a honey badger or something.
Just need mock-ups for various archons for the 49
Hi
Have they revealed when the next round will come?
Soon (2023)
Probably next update or by tennocon.
Oma?
Opa
Anyone got any Archon Skin concepts?
are they gonna fix Proteas technochron skin? it is not meant to default open
Hear me out: Mesa, but in a Sakura Kimono with a Lotus Hairpin holing up her facecloth. Seeing Khora and nezha and grendel getting all these oriental skins made me ponder this
Could even have Flintlock pistol regulators that have a smol firework spark when fired
Sadly I don’t think that’s really feasible with tennogen. Would probably require some model changes
Just pondering is all I'm doin
Frost needs a fenris outfit
I'm just waiting for anything for Sevagoth. Sad to see one of my favorite frames not have anything
Honestly with epitaph being one of the most OP secondaries in the game, I'm surprised it doesn't have much tennogen stuff
From what I heard he’s a pain to "tennogenify" because of the multiple layers and because with the shadow, it 2 tennogen to do, both having little intricate details
Definitely a pain, but multiple people have stuff in the works. Me and Cobalt are waiting on feedback for ours. A skin for his shadow is not required for as submission as well.
Oh, I thought, thanks for the knowledge
It’s interesting that it doesn’t require a shadow skin. I almost feel like that could be risky knowing how the WF playerbase can be about stuff like that. I can easily see people saying stuff like “it doesn’t even have a skin for the shadow???” Without comprehending just how much work that would take.
Yeah afaik, no one is working on a skin for the shadow atm
It is a similar reason why there are only a few equinox skins, despite her being so popular
Just my two cents but I think the major reason no one does a skin for the shadow is that you can’t do a custom helmet
You can change the skin, etc but you’ll have to conform to the helmet
Personally for me I’m just lazy and don’t want to do a shadow skin lol
Tennogen looks like it would be alot of fun to make, but I got a feeling you have to know how to actually art to do it. Lol props to those who do thou
I know nothing about art tbh
Prime example
but you still got the shapes and feeling across even if it's not looking like professional concept art you see for games and such
What would you suggest if I wanted to give it a whirl then? Is there certain programs I'd need?
I use zbrush
Krita is a good feee drawing/painting program for concepts and sketching
that is peak sketch performance
modeling is still art
I have no prior modeling experience
I started last year
That's a pretty good start for a year in. I've thought about trying tennogen. If I ever have inspiration for a skin I might.
I would say I have a good eye though
I really think more people should try
I started concepting, but I thought I would try my hand at the full thing
I would love to see more artists creating Tennogen items! Or art in general, really. Art is great.
Now I think I am alright
'alright' seems to be a bit of an understatement
Well thank you
artistic skill comes in may forms and there's no set time line for it
I was actually having conversations with the other artists early on expressing my frustration in learning 3D, because I am an intutive learner and usually pick stuff up really quick. But there are some specific challanges and things you need to learn when it comes to 3D. So if anyone tries to dip their toe in the water, do not give up.
I really like that you said 'skill' rather than talent. I have a few artist friends that get really frustrated when people say "I wish I had your talent". They tell me that their art isn't from talent, but years and years and years of learning skills to make good art.
Yes, this is very true
ya, 3D is really tricky. I've dabbled but the learning curve frustrates me and I get too focused on where I want to be rather than learning the basics
And the more little tricks you pick up, the better and faster you can itterate as well
I do 3-D modelling for engineering professionally. I'm pretty good at it. I tried 3D modelling for art/games. It did not end well.
ya, I mean, talent certainly exists but every artist I know works really hard on their art beyond what they share and ignoring that work just dismisses so much of their effort
Well I can tell you that despite how new you are to it, you already have a fan in my friend. I showed him the WIP pics you’ve showed of the Excal skin and he was instantly in love. He adores that blend of sci fi and believable military style. So don’t let the challenges discourage you, because I guarantee there’s more folk like him out there, and you’re doing fantastic as far as My friend and I are concerned.
Aww, I really appreciate support like this. I will not give up any time soon!
No problem, artists often have more support than they ever hear or see because of how many people don’t actually voice said support but will watch from the side and appreciate the work more than you realize.
Mean this jokingly but he sounds like am addict waiting for his next fix total jokes no murder me please
That was the joke he was going for, lol.
Why syandana mithra and more tennogen its not on switch, when will the tennogens that are not on switch come?
the simple and obvious response would be "With Cross play / Cross save" but the other response are either when they'll get to them or they didn't get the "you can go console now" pass
From what I understand it depends on the artist. Some took a buyout up front for their respective items to be sold on console (because it is for plat). While some did not want a cash offer up front. I may be totally wrong tho
that's what I recall too
Hay is it exemptible to draw Tenno-gen cosmetics and post them? I wounded because I want to post a drawing of my operator but the mask she has is tenno-gen
You can draw them
if it's TennoGen stuff that's already in the game it's more fanart and belongs in #fan-art, if it's concept art for new Operator TennoGen you can post it here even if you don't plan on making it an actual TennoGen piece for the workshop
Ah ok thanks
someone making an equinox skin?
I still pray for the day that someone will make a Grineer-themed Grendel skin and make his teeth look like ammo pouches 
The geometry on his teeth would make that near impossible. But a grineer grendel would be cool. I love grineer style
right, I keep forgetting that's not a texture dang
tho probably could just work around that and paint the region into a black square or something lmao
change the teeth to bullet shaped?
TennoGen creators are not allowed to change the body mesh for a skin, only helmets
ah, I meant textured the teeth into bullets but I'm not sure about now that I'm staring at Grendel's form now
Its my birthday so i hope by some luck that i get the reward, i never managed to get it befor
Please keep non-tennogen related discussion to appropriate channels, thank you.
Congrats to everyone who got their skins accepted!
Some really beautiful work, looking forward to picking up a few of them.
So excited for my Gara helmet
I'm personally tempted to snag those Primey-style shoulderpads and am torn between the Revenant cosmetics (or whether to wait for a Prime/||Narmer|| variant's release).
So do you get regal aya for primes packs
Wrong channel, but to answer the question, it was available from the event that happened at the end of last year, Prime Resurgence, where they unvaulted a bunch of Prime frames for a limited period of time. Regal Aya was used to buy specific frames, weapons or accessories

Again, this not the channel for this.
Please visit #support-and-bugs or perhaps #players-helping-players
I think you mean Tennocon haha In which case wrong channel
sorry hehe
Playing Rhino with the blade of the lotus skin while listening to the last stand of sabaton feels so right
Will we have the ability to make heavy scythes in the future?
Maybe there’s a plague strike for Zaws
I dont think one exists yet. They may add one
until then hespar is the only one I think

I agree that this is the morally correct thing to do and that there is a reason why Yatus' stuff made it in-game but I'm not even going to try and take the moral high ground because I can't.
There are too many things I think are wrong with his work and even Yatus himself that elaborating my view on those things just takes too much time. Of course I understand that people don't have the same infos and experience I do most of the time so they just see a random dude hate talk Yatus' work for seemingly no reason but that isn't true. I talked about them so many times already that I kind of gave up diving into the topic more and more after each time.
However I would like to still provide some of my reasons:
-
I know this is an old topic but the suicide threat he gave DE so they would accept his work into the game alone is bad enough. What bothers me more though, is the fact that there has never been a real apology, I checked. All there really is is a comment on reddit where Yatus basically only talks about how cringe he finds his younger self but that's hardly an apology for his threat or even the fact he used the money he got from another TennoGen artist (iirc it was Faven) to buy some competent hardware instead of using it for college like he promised. This was years ago and shouldn't be taken into account every time he does anything but the lack of apologies is bothering.
-
Some of his very early works have indeed been straight up ripoffs of models from other franchises while the stuff that got accepted more recently have been "better" (for a lack of a better term) in that regard but still aren't nowhere near as good as they should be. That isn't to say that skins and helmets inspired by other franchises is bad thing in general, Rekkou did it excellently with his Volt Arrester helmet, but Yatus' appriach with how often he did that is almost pathetic.
-
The next point is about Saryn Ion but applies to other Ion skins aswell to some degree. The way Ion is designed (be it intentional or not) makes it almost impossible to use with other skins. The colour channels are completely misproportioned with one channel literally not even existing. Saryn has this blob thing on her right thigh that so far every TennoGen artists found a way to incorporate into their design, Yatus just straight up ignored it and forced a texture on it. I have an image comparison on my PC that I can't acess right now that demonstrates what I mean perfectly. But all in all these things, at least to me, are all reasons why I would consider Saryn Ion a disaster.
-
In my eyes I feel like Yatus makes barely any progress in terms of quality on his work. Which is surprising for how often he uploads and reworks stuff in the workshop. His textures still have horrid mushy edges that look like as if he made a high res texture first, rescaled it in the worst way possible and then saved it as a jpg. You'd expect at least some sort of improvement considering just how long Yatus has been a TennoGen creator. It often seems like he is simply throwing TennoGen at the wall to see what sticks, but it rarely sticks.
In my defense, I'm a learned product design assistent and while I would under no circumstance call myself a professional I still know enough about the general design process to understand the struggle TennoGen creators go through in order to get their work to a point where both they and DE are happy with it and accept it. Designing stuff is by no means an easy task with all the layers of work required until you have a finished product. Whenever I see Yatus upload to the workshop I look at his work and can't help but think Yatus doesn't understand what it actually means to design. I'm not trying to gatekeep tho, design knowledge is by no means required to make great TennoGen but in the specific case of Yatus it would certainly help.

Found it:
I am also in the opinion that any sort of asymmetry like this should be taken advantage of to create something interesting.
Not doing so works against the model rather than with it i think.
I do not know anything about Yatus personally, so I will refrain from speaking on any of that. I guess my only real response is that DE only accepts what they deem ready for the game, in both design and technical aspects, so if you feel there needs to he a higher technical ceiling for tennogen items to be eligible, that is a fair concern. At the end of the day DE evaluated the ION skins in-game, Saryn included, and decided they were game ready (design and technical). My original point was to not post stuff without providing constructive criticism, and I think that still holds, regardless of how you view a particular artist. I think you did a fair job pointing out your concerns above, and thank you for keeping this interaction civil.

Understood
Hey devs? Will there be a new frame in duviri paradox?
Wrong channel
My bad
No, because mainline updates never brought new frames...
What I'd like to know is how difficult will it be for TennoGen creators to work with
What will be difficult to work with?
have you seen how complicated some of the recent Warframe designs have been?
Ohhhh yeah, it's rough
I like them but I hope DE finds a way to keep new designs visually interesting while have them just simple enough for TennoGen to not be a pain to work with
Do we know when we're supposed to be getting that Xaku Ceramic Pot skin?
I just want more Hildryn tennogen but I know she's a pain to design for 😭
My brother in Unum, Xaku deluxe was the last deluxe skin to be revealed and we still haven't gotten Protea or Baruuk deluxe. I can tell you how long until we get Xaku deluxe: ages!
Fooey, Im really looking forward to it, but hopefully they dont botch it like Valkyr Deluxe which has brutal clipping imo
I’m just here now waiting for Void Angel theme cosmetics and skins to match those new ephemeras.
In the meantime, I’ll embrace the Sentient theme 
look at it this way: Valkyr Deluxe was announced roughly last August and wasn't improved upon until the model reveal in January
I think that's because deluxe skins are more of a side thing, while they are occupied on working with models for bigger content updates.
Which is also probably why tennogen takes very long to release. When they have more time, that's what they work on i think
wat
Tennogen
._.
@slim knoll any possible updates for this wonderful piece? https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2595386770
I voted for that. Really would love it in the game
Hydroid?
Protea...
Prosetisen is the same person who made Garuda Successor and i'm still in love with that Skin and he didn't fail for this one either
not a huge fan of the helmet but the skin is gorgeous
❓
❓
There’s no way to tell what frame it is based on the image alone. It would need to say so in the bottom left corner or something
No I mean like hydroid tennogen in general, I can tell that’s protea
Oh, you just said the word hydroid with no context LOL
Can some one make a legit JoJo's reference on Sevagoth? 
he is the JoJo reference
no it isnt
He is
This needs to be a thing
it will be
Yeeeeeeeeee exploded in excitement
I agree I looks really awesome
When I saw it I was like…… Wow, take my money
Are there any concepts for a Gauss deluxe?
Something I'd wanna see as kinda a joke tennogen skin (but would still love to have in the game) is a skin for Limbo based off of ||Waluigi||
Yes but they're mostly rather mid
Like no offense to the artists trying their best but if we compare them to the concept art that actually led to the creation of deluxe skins (not even talking about Liger) they just can't hold up both in concept and execution
I'd like to see that, always think of Black Sabbath when I see him
Lightning McQueen Gauss would be kinda neat
