Asian Leaderhead Mega pack

[ShiroKobbure]

well what do you think? cape or no cape? should i get rid of the shield?

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

Well about the picture you posted Shiro:

Medival: I would do something like the depictions of Genghis Khan with chinese style armor on.
Industrial: ?
Modern: The picture with the suit works..

 

[ShiroKobbure]

I'll think about it, but i probably wont. I have no chinese armour props and I like the way it turned out

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

Thats right...darn I forgot about the props part. Could you alter the Japanese armor kinboat made somehow?

 

[ShiroKobbure]

its very japanese, im not sure if you have seen chinese armour from the time of the mongols but they arent similar. Also alot of kinboats props dont look good at leaderhead scale, which is why i havent used his mongol hats

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

Yeah I know about that, I was just thinking of a solution. What about just the chest armor and not the helmut?

 

[ShiroKobbure]

it wouldnt look like chinese armour. and it wouldnt look like mongolian armour. Im pretty sure now Im just going to use what I made

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

Could you at least give him that fancy mustach in the medival era?

 

[ShiroKobbure]

a fancy mustache?
this is what I based my face model from

 

[ShiroKobbure]

hows this for ancient?

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

I think the clothing and everything look great but I really think you should give him more sinister, fierce look to his eyes. Maybe slant his brows slighty, give him that devious look of a plotting villain bent on world conquest.

 

[ShiroKobbure]

i dont really want to make genghis to have a sinister or evil look.

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

How come? He is one of historys most infamious characters.

 

[ShiroKobbure]

because he isnt that in my mind. He was a military genius. Not a villian

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

Sadly most of the military geniuses have been in the villain catagory. Although Genghis isn't nearly as bad as some of the more modern people in that catagory, he was still a mass murderior.

 

[ShiroKobbure]

well you cant apply the modern rules of war or morality to people in those times. He gave the option of total surrender or death. around the same options USA gave to Japan, i dont think Truman is considered a mass murder.

Very well said my friend. History has always been written by the victorious, not the vanquished. Just imagine, had Germany won WWII, Hitler would be revered as a hero today - and Winston Churchill would be the villain!

 

[ShiroKobbure]

I just sometimes feel anger that people on US money or US idols in history killed and tried to erase the Native Americans, America isnt even European land. But the Japanese that did the same are seen as monsters... sorry just my mind sometimes

I spent a couple of hours searching for decent Poser content and there's an appalling lack of Chinese stuff for Poser. And there's no Mongol or Korean stuff either. The only "Asian" stuff available for free is Japanese (or stuff based on Western stereotypes of Japanese culture ). Even the content on sale has a lack of decent "Asian" stuff.

 

[ShiroKobbure]

yes it is a poor sitituation
