If he based the model on the books he wouldn't know how to make the facial structure. Or have tolkien published any picture of them?

Just do it as in the movies, but change the hair colour, does that necessarily look that bad?

We'll see what future brings us.

I had some ideas extending it with Éomer and other characters,
we'll just see later.

Don't complain about the hair, the looks from the movies
are the most common. If I made them based on the books,
people would think WTF IS THIS!?!?!? THIS IS NOT FARAMIR AND BOROMIR!!!

It look perfect as it is dont lisen to those people ... KK even took the movie turn way more people are involved whit the movie then the book too bad for the lore addict .

Nice,

I like the Idea with Faramir having his own Ranger-Regiment. The model is looking pretty nice for a beta release! Awaiting further releases to see Boromir with his Custom-Model.
Because I merged some files yesterday my installation got messed and I need to install medieval from scratch so I will not merge it, thats why I am awaiting a compatible version

Nice 0.4!
