Captain Amerithor has returned after getting a new shield and some back surgery......:lol:

I've updated the preview and the download with a new attack and a new fortify to go with it.

Hi sword,
Congratulations, I've noticed that you 've fixed the shoulder problem but now the attack animation is more calmed, more still. What base model are you using? the kinboats paperdoll or a poser normal figure?
If you are using kinboat's we can share animations an props.
Un saludo

Hi Mosca! Thankyou for your kind words. I am using Kinboat's paper doll male actually.

Much better, :D.

He looks hunched over like an old lady hitting somone with a cane.

I'm sorry. :rotfl:

Looks great. :goodjob: Much better.

Still the shield is held in a strange position... picture yourself in a boat on a river (lucy in the sky), no sorry, picture yourself holding a shield, how would you do ? try it with a lid or anything that you can hold like a shield ;)
The attack is a bit too soft also, but still he doesn't look like a huntchback anymore, that's better.

I can make another attack no problem, should I have it a go?

A bit faster and nastyer would be fine. The shield keeps me focused on it, I'm sorry ;) Hope another redo won't get you mad !!

Again, I say "HAhahaha! Behold as I tap you to death!"

Any ideas on what the new attack should look like?

a huge lunge with the hammer.
pivot the waist, lean forward, and out-stretch the arm.

Alright I'll try my best this time. I'm in the process of rendering the new fortify, hopefully I can get a death animation from Mosca, I can't really do death animations that well if you've noticed..:blush:

Thanks Quinzy. Make I should make some what-if celtic units in the future eh?

an IRB man, and a Industrial Rebel would be nice :)
as for what-if's: a celtic tank or TOW, or a celt with an energy sword would be dandy..

What does IRB stand for?

Irish Republican Brotherhood. they were the rebel anti-english group in ireland. they were the main group in the Easter Rising 1916. they'd replace the rifleman or the guerilla.
they'd look like this:

unfortunately they turned into the infamous and disgraceful IRA in later years...

Suit would be kind of hard to replicate but I'm up for the challenge. :)

yay! thank you! (and maybe then, you wanna do some stuff for the 40k mod? you'll need to talk to stormrage about the particulars)

Question: What weapon did they use? A rifle?

40K units? Remember I'm limited to the props and modules availible for free, I've seen space marine modules but not much else. Theres alot of other races in 40K besides Orks and Humans.

yeah, rifles.

well, Eldar wouldn't be as hard as some of the other.. :http://uk.games-workshop.com/eldar/gallery/1/

its essentially men with knee pads and elbow pads (simple spherical primitives) and helmets with large plumes, and backpacks. i'll attempt on finding props, and because most of the Eldar look the same with minor differences, making lots won't be too hard :)

Great Apple already made some Eldar vehicles I believe, three hovertanks.

i meant infantrymen :)

I know, i just thought I'd say that in case you didn't know.

I think the American Medival Infantry's attack will be a massive pounding...:)

good, good :)

;)

I could try doing Kal-els knight, i've been thinking about doing cavalry.

a 1700's mounted Irish rebel perhaps ;)
nah, i dont mean to be pushy. do what ya want :)

Much better, :D. Still not perfect, but the animation is still much more realistic, :goodjob:

Thankyou Odin ;)

:goodjob: Much better attack! I really like this unit... probably one of my top 10 favorites.

Thankyou I appreciate that. :)

The new attack does work much better. His body moving with the hammer swing seems more natural.
