[LH] Augusto Pinochet

Pinochet will be one of the leaders featured in the upcoming CIV Gold expansion "The Nature of Man". That pack will feature several leaders who's reputations as tyrants and butchers are legendary. I'll get into the "whys" regarding the pack another time.

The point of the thread is to get a bit of help from the community. I've had some successes with Blender...and some spectacular failures.

This rough draft of Pinochet is a simple re-skin of deGaulle with some stretching and moving done in nifskope.

There are two things would help distinguish this model - a fatter face, and a red/white/blue sache across the chest. I've not added this to the download section, so if someone wants to help me make it better, let me know and I'll send it your way.

if you stretch in nifskope sometimes you have problem importing into blender FYI. are you going to attach a nif?

Wyz_sub10 · Apr 18, 2008

Here is the NIF and the main DDS skin.

Perhaps a less DeGaule hat as well - a slightly reshape stalin hat would look exactly like the one in picture...

MadmanOfALeader · Apr 19, 2008

I think he should look a bit whiter. Some Latinos are whiter than others and this especially true regarding the Rio de la Plata region.

Wyz_sub10 · Apr 21, 2008

Can anyone take a crack at improving this?

I still have a lot of XML to work on for the pack, not to mention figuring out how to get Pol Pot and Caligula done.

Thanks for an awesome Mussolini, though!

(bump)

if refar doesn't work on it I may get to it, but it may take a few weeks. RL gets in the way of modding

Wyz_sub10 · May 1, 2008

Indeed, it does.

Ekmek · May 19, 2008

Wyz,

I switched out the hats. removed the undershirt and tie (so it looks like your picture more. Added buttons and a sash. I also broadened the face a bit. I leave the skinning to you since you do a pretty decent job at it. the tgas are included. you can delete the buttons if you cant position them right (I tried) and you should color what remains of the undershirt whit so it looks like the solid jacket in the picture (and remove the shadow from the pockets I removed)

good luck!

Now with the new hat is going better!!! I can't stand waiting!!! :crazyeye:

Is this Leader already playable? maybe with De Gaulle animations? Tell me Yes, tell me yes, tell me yes!!!

Fine by me.

bernie14 · May 22, 2008

ok! I hand off the skinS...yes, i could not help it :crazyeye:

, i did the white uniform and the good ole, "dictator grey" :lol:

the napoleon.dds is not inculded, since i did not change that one...

p.s. i wanted to do a little "nosejob" in blender, but i could not open up this particular nif file (@ Ekmek, your existing work was too good to start w degaulle again) so use the original nif

p.s.s. 1) i noticed in nifskope that the left thumb is extended like a rider's stick..dont know if that was on purpose? 2) i would suggest lowering the hat just a touch and 3) moving the sash slightly forward to cover the showing button, 4) maybe add another "row" of buttons above the sash as well, up to the collar :confused:

DWOLF · May 22, 2008

wow bernie, you make it seem so easy...good job

Vrenir · May 22, 2008

Bernie strikes again.

Wyz_sub10 · May 22, 2008

That's just awesome.

I love how I can toss a piece of crap on here and it comes out looking like the Sistene Chapel.

Great model Ekmek, great skin bernie. I'm giddy over here.
