Great work! Quality

[leif_erikson]

AOR Treveri Cavalry, I haven't decided who's who but supposedly these should be split between Boii, Arverni, Slave and Free People. Don't mention the wrong animation I was playing around in 3ds and didn't want to change it back.

[leif_erikson]

AOR Nervii, same story Boii, Arverni, Slave, Free People

Can you change the chest hair a bit on each of the different skins?

[tone]

No it's more work than it's worth to do that - cos the hair isn't on a seperate layer - but hey....how about a bit of encouragement first? These are gorgeous looking skins...really Leif...the variety you get into your shields and clothes is fantastic.

Sorry, I thought it was a given that everything the 3 of you make is inherently beauteous.

That being said, these are FANTASTIC!

Wow, I forgot to check this thread, but man, those units are killer!!!!

[swhunter]

Excellent work...
hows that Tone ?

[tone]

Thank you.

I would say that with what Pacco and Leif have done so far we've already knocked about 3 months off completing RS2 and to a way higher standard than I thought would have been possible.

Volcae Axemen AOR

[tone]

very very early wip on the takabara - jav and axe eastern AOR unit - I know it's glaring at the moment but it'll tone down a bit. ignore the head / helmet bit - it'll have the Persian headdress, a taka shield and the persian axe.

[Gotthard]

Having spent 3-4 hours trying to successfully skin a shield, seeing an entire model of excellent quality is quite humbling. Haven't looked in on the unit_dev in a while (lost in the world of code) and it's good to see excellent units still getting churned out of the tone/hobo/pacco/lief factory of goodness.

I like those metal armbands, any chance we can vary their color? I don't know how you make them stick out like that, it's really awesome. Keep up the good work!

[cherryfunk]

Leif, the Treveri Cavalry are simply stunning, some of my favorite RS2 units of all so far. But I wonder if the cloaks might be sticking out too much; won't it look funny when they're standing still to have their cloaks sticking straight out?

[leif_erikson]

Cherry, I think you got a point here. I have to check with Tone maybe he can tweak the cloak a little bit because as it is right now is kinda floating in the air. See the Belgae unit below:

Leif, you have a real eye for color coordination -- you're getting the shields and tunics and trousers to match just enough that they look cool, but also different enough that they don't look like the goofy 'uniforms' of vanilla units. Damn impressive! I also love the little details like the stripes on the trousers and the rivets in the leather apron -- really remarkable work...

I like the idea of the 'floating' cloak, but maybe it should be toned down a bit so it won't look strange when the unit is standing still...

Have to agree wholeheartedly with that. Looks brilliant
