[OSP] [WIP Release 0.8.5] New Units for Gondor REBORN work thread (1st post image heavy)

[Delta_02_Cat]

I like the overall colour pattern of them, fits perfectly to the "moon tower"

[KnightsTemplar]

Nice with the update!

BTW The device design was based on the last scene of the movie's last scene, and I just realised.
Off-Topic: The helm seems to have some resemblance on some ancient (real life!) helm design after the change....
Especially viewed on the side..

[Taro_M]

WETA used a lot of historical stuff as source of inspiration.

BTW: I did look at the side of Guardians helmet and I thought that its too eggshaped so I made top rounder, looks much better IMHO.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

[AnthoniusII]

May i sugest Lord_Calidor's weapon pack?
You will find much better swords and spears in there!
Just remember to credit Lord_Calidor if you use them.

[Delta_02_Cat]

I didn't even noticed the egg helmets before. I am the only one that thinks that the "cheekguard(?)" are a bit to broad if you view them from the front?
They are probably the vanilla TATW models but I think the Texture makes them seem a bit to broad.

Could give me a link? I couldnt find one. Of course credits will be given.

The helmet is my creation, KK didnt give me permission to use his. And the cheek guards are fine, after all this helmet is only "inspired" by 2nd age numenorean helmet, with actually makes quite a lot of sense for this unit.

Thanks, I took a look at it and I can say I will use this one. Axes and spears will come in handy soon.

Axes and spears? do I sense the western fiefdoms of Gondor?

[Taro_M]

Well yeah, after all its my plan to remake all of my old units.

[son of romans]

Good point I messed around with it and I think I made it look better:

Neck Guard

Close take on front

Beautiful unit,hope to see more of tham at same level!

[AragornElessar]

would it be hard to turn for a unexperienced guy like me to change the minas ithil dude to a 2 handed sword wielder?


I like 2 handed swords you see

[Emperor of Hell]

Yes

[AnthoniusII]

Lord_Calidor's weapons.

[Benox]

[Louis Lux]

Isn't the shield perhaps a bit too thick?

[KnightsTemplar]

The Ithil Guards seems like the one unit with the most focus and work on!
Impressive devotion to your own works, Taro.

[sokkur]

Very nice submod. Maby you could add the new weapons from Lord_Calidor as a weapon upgrade for the standard weapons.

[Saladin]

hey taro what modelling programs are using now? im making an attempt to get back into modelling, most likely milkshape or 3ds, but thought i would get your opinion.

[Taro_M]

I use milkshape almost all the time, but when I have to deal with some more complicated stuff, like "cutting" the mesh (to add more vertexes to work on) I export body part into blender. However I only do that to use tools that arent available in milkshape, blender is still to much for me.
