[PASSED 04/07/09] [Artifex] dome (Patron: B. Ward)

Patron: B. Ward

I, B. Ward propose that the member dome be granted citizenship and promoted to the rank of Artifex.

To commemorate my third consecutive term on the CdeC, I've brought forth yet another deserving modder to be lifted through the ranks. One thing that constantly annoyed me when I first joined TWC and began modding the M2:TW engine was all the complaining about how a certain faction wasn't done the way someone thought it should have been done. I know that not everyone has the know how or the utilities to complete a task such as faction reconstruction of their favorite faction or one of their native nation from that era. But only a few are willing to stop complaining and actually gain the knowledge necessary to accomplish such tasks. This are the types of people that keep the modding community going and ensure its continue vitality and success. The member dome is one such modder in this community. His work on Magyar Mod is absolutely phenonmenal and only gets better and better with every step he takes forward in the art of creativity. For someone who little to nothing about modeling, he has progressed in a manner that is incredibly exceptional. Here you can see his new units for the upcoming release of Magyar Mod: Shield of Christianity. He is one of the many gems overlooked in the mod forums because popularity may not be there, but creativity coupled with determination is what makes this member more than deserving.

Regards,
B. Ward, Opifex

My name is Döme, and I'm from Hungary. I played various times with MTW2 ,and time to time I started the game, I felt flustreted about my Nation's appearance in TW games. THan I met in the hungarian forum with
Csatádi, and together we start to work on a new version of magyarmod. Firstly just planned anew unit list,
but no help popped up, so I start using my architectural software to modell new Items.
Later I started using Ps to making skinns. The first ones were horrible, but I interested in very well, so after one year of hopless work and with the good advises of Danova ,I've posted my first units
on Twc.

Are all the units in those pics skinned by him?

**B. Ward** · March 26, 2009, 11:50 AM

Yes. Skinned and modeled.

**y2day** · March 26, 2009, 12:21 PM

Truly beautiful units, and one hell of an artist.

Indeed. He's one of the few modders I'm jealous of. He and danova have a certain quality and attention to detail that is amazing to me.

**Desperado †** · March 26, 2009, 12:25 PM

They certainly are original, and in detail too. I mean check out these quivers. I'm leaning towards a yes, if not abstain due to my lack modding knowledge. He certainly seems to have made a lot.

**Desperado †** · March 26, 2009, 01:06 PM

Can we get any figures of the number of units he's skinned and modelled for this mod?

**y2day** · March 26, 2009, 01:28 PM

It is a YES from me by the way. Agreed I'm jealous of his skill as well, and don't get me started on danova. He is one of the best I've ever seen, but so are you B.

In his thread where he is previewing them, I counted about 37. This includes upgrade models as well. Not to mention, banners and new weapons and accessories. I can pm him to ask how many units he's completed.
