Custom skins at request - Raven´s Skin Thread

[Elric von Rabenfels]

If you want some personal custom skins for you medieval II, tell me.
I make skins for everyone who asks - though if there are too many requests it could take a while.
The skinning is fully free.
So all of you who want their personal Med II skins, post in this thread.
BUT: Please only serious requests with some pictures as material or at least a completed idea
And please notice: I cannot change models, only retexturing requests.

I already made one custom unit for a heretic-fanatic fellow:

I have wanted the skin of a colonial rifleman for a while now, the way I see it is that the only thing stopping M2TW from going into the colonial period, other than the name is the lack of rifled muskets, I can mod the game to improve the accurracy, distance and power of the musket but I need a more Colonial/Imperial skin. To be more exact, one with a uniform, circa 1700-1850. I would be very greatful and I imagine a great many others would be too.

Hi,

i know that it is qiet of work, but could you do a reskinning of all spanish unit towards a Aragon faction style. The base would be the flag coulors and symbols on it shown in my signature !

Thaks a lot !

[sporkyness]

if you can reskin the mongols and create a chinese army out of them i will love you forever!!!

lol

[Candelarius]

I would love you forever if you could make the guy pictured below for me, perhaps using the unused sergeant swordsmen model that Burrek has in his texture pack?

PM me if you are able to do this.

I'll give you ample reputation and even feature your unit in my mod if you like as "payment" for your service. I actually have that "action figure" and would LOVE to have him in the game.

[parvus]

nice work!

[Elric von Rabenfels]

Here are the first units for munich:









If you like the colors I will continue work, if you don´t tell me what colors they should have.

[metalguy24]

I would like to see a unit of swordsman with a norman look. Like in the pic. Thanks

[eddy4u]

wow, this is great, could you make the crusaders knights (templar, hospitaller etc) dismounted? maybe make the feudal knights into templar knights? and could you change the byzantium faction colour like instead of purple, could you make it black or something?

[Elric von Rabenfels]

I can change the byzantium color to black,
but you should check out white wolves byzantium armor progression mod before deciding that you want them reskinned.
To the dismounted Knight orders: There is already a mod out for dismounted Templar and stuff.

[Hex Khan]

i have a request i would like, could it be possible for you to reskin the byzantines to have the colour of silver (dominant) and black (secondary) reminicant of the old seleucid colour scheme from rtw plus give the byzantine Infantry and guard a more classical greek feel, mainly a plumed corinthian helmed hoplite style if at all possible?

PS
dont suppose you know someone who can make units for factions as of yet? I'm intrested in getting somekind of phalanx styled unit for the byzantines. I plan on doing a every special byzantine AAR, you know?

I know it'll take awhile but i can wait for it Raven Darkwing.

[Elric von Rabenfels]

I am happy to say that I actually can do your byzantine reskinning.
But I am doing the spain reskinning for MunichRules and the norman soldier for metalguy (without a good helmet, I hate that we can´t alter models yet )
But I will work on it. Probably in turns: One Spain unit, one byzantine unit and that all the way
Coz I own RTW too, I can look into what the byzantine need to get more classical greek. But as said above, I can´t change models, so I can´t give them other helmets and stuff.

[Hex Khan]

thats fine by me Raven Darkwing thanks

[Heroic Heretic]

i just wanted to show my appreciation of your work you did for me:
thanks for the skins !!!

[Elric von Rabenfels]

No problem
I am happy to help.

[Broly]

Nice Spanish skins cant wait to see what else you bring out.
I was just wondering if possible for Knights Templar for england i was thinking about giving them ago in campaign


i don't really like the original knights templar there graphics is alright but id like something like the one above because im much more familiar with it, though I am m not sure how much variation there would be with that skin. No rush but if you wanted to do it seems you will get alot out of this thred

[Elric von Rabenfels]

I would love to make some templar knights, But I will check if Burrek changed them already first - Burrek is the best skinner around, so I won´t need to do them if he has made some. But if not - I will work on them. I need to finish that byzantinium and spanish retexturing first, though. So please be patient, skinning takes time, but I finish things I start - as you can see in this thread

PS: You don´t need to reply Broly - I will update this post when I know if I will make them or not

[Pyrrus]

This is kinda a small request. Would be great if you could manage it. My favourite faction are the Turks and my favourite unit the dismounted Siphai Lancers, i think they look great with full armour upgrades. The only thing that annoys me about these units (as well as mounted siphas and ottoman infantry) is their brightly coloured yellow and green shields. Do you think you could make new shields with more of a metallic look?

[Elric von Rabenfels]

No Problem Pyrrus, I will do these shields soon - send me your mail per pm, I will send them to you when I´m done. I´m glad this is a small request won´t take too long

[Admiral-Krause]

Grüße!

For my project to make more Mercenaries and Native troops i think i need some help. First unit is for Almugharves mercenaries.

They wear a red shield, chain mail, a sword and javelins for fighting in a roman way.

Maybe you can manage it to reskin for example Spanish Javelinmen or Afghan Javelinmen to this kind of unit.

Red Shield more darken then bright and chain mail, clothes normal brown, grey tones or in a way of darken slightly red.

Maybe there is another model who fits better for a retexture.
