[LH] Akbar

Akbar of India
- Zara Yaqob clean-shaven and retextured for Indian look
- Willem of Oranje's mustache
- Mehmed's turban

I did this and adjusted the face by making the nose longer and narrower (more indian/moghul than african I believe) and changing the lips and chin a bit. Honestly its easier to do models than to skin them so I'm posting the model here and some pictures (in game) I'm hoping the requesters or someone will do the reskinning (amra, aranor, PW90, Ambrox, among others).

I'll update this first post when they make the whole leaderhead download available. The attached zip only has the tgas/dds for WVO and Sulieman just make a copy of zara from the original folder for all the rest.

Nice LH so far , but try adjusting the mustache a little bit more , it's too near the nose .

Agent327 · Mar 22, 2008

LH looks fine! (Don't know about the moustache, but what's with the training suit stripes?)

thats all original Zara Yacob. :confused:

It needs to be reskinned.

He looks very-very promising.

But... Souldn't he be looking more like this

"It's a Trap!"

Hey man. Don't be Racist. Indians don't look like that

Back to the leaderhead, May I suggest changing the body. I've never seen a piece of indian clothing that resembles that.

I'd gladly take you up to finish this LH. :thumbsup:

It would be my first one since December. :faint:

ripple01 · Mar 22, 2008

Awesome, I look forward to seeing a completed version of this excellent start.

Cheers,

DK, you sure? I know you have a lot on your plate! I think it mainly just needs a reskin. I hope its easy work for you. Thx.

dutchking · Mar 22, 2008

Yeah, I'm sure.

A little reskin may be just what I need to get working again.

Kao'chai · Mar 23, 2008

try using Mehmed's body , Yes it's not Akbar but he is his grandfather, Babur

myfamilyguy76 · Mar 23, 2008

I think you should change the background

PW90 · Mar 29, 2008

I have reskinned Akbar a little bit and changed the background.
I attach only the two files, which I have changed (ZaraYaqob_BG.dds and ZaraYaqob_DIFF.dds)

So and here a picture:

I like the background, so I used it for my reskin. Since we are posting reskins, here is what I did with it

You will note that I just changed some colors.

Very loosely based on this pic.

dutchking · Mar 29, 2008

Alright, I'll add shaders on to mamba's LH...
(sorry for forgetting :cringe:

, it happens...)

Not bad, but I was really hoping that a texture job could do the following two things:

1) Get rid of the beard remnant around his mouth

2) Get rid of those racing stripes
