Age of Legends (Ηλικία των θρύλων)

[I-Alexander-I]

I would like to announce an ambitious project which I am about to under take. It will be a modification for the Rome total war game engine that will completely revamp the entire game and bring it into the era of classical Greece.

The reason why I have set out upon this project is to test all my skills that I have learnt over the last few years with 2d and 3d work. My aim is to create every unit from 'scratch', and to create a visually awesome and stunning mod for you to feast your eyes upon.

As I am publishing this I feel that I should say a little about myself, basically I have been modeling both high and low level random objects for the past 5 years or so, and trying to learn as much as I can whilst in my free time from work and college. However now I want to aim at putting my skills to use and to test them out and hopefully expand on my skills. I will be using this project as my portfolio as i would like to aim at moving into the gaming industry in the future.

When I have some decent stuff to show I will release a little 'preview' of whats to come. I hope your all as excited as i am to see the final product

Today I have been messing around developing new and different concepts for the mod. One that I would like to share is the idea for unit cards, Basically I will create extremely high res renders and put them against 'faction' specific wonders. For example soldiers of Athens will be in front of the Parthenon etc. Yes I will be creating new buildings just for these renders too :p

anyway without further ado..

I hope this will be for Alexander, so no 255 model limit

Maybe you can try to smooth out the linothorax there. That crease going up thee center looks really weird.
