That's exactly why I suggested it.
As far as I know, this was his 1st.
I've given-up on Chugg doing my Explorer project, so I had to outsource!
I am still going to do it one day!
It's just that I don't care for explorers much, especially era specific explorer graphics. I mean the unit is uncommon in all of my games. So, important units come first!

I see what you mean... so instead of working on explorers, which you rarely see, you decided to get cracking on those diverse spies, since you see those so much!I am still going to do it one day!

Hmmm... well... on the plus side, I've liked all your explorers to-date...
Something about the Meso Explorer that doesn't make me want to download right away. Maybe it's the massive deformity of his knees... maybe it's the sunflower-happy headress... dunno...
I was hoping for something maybe a little more Aztecish... more bird helmety, less sunflowery...
If you do use some of the Jaguar bits to make it, don't use the crouching animation (it's annoying).
Either that, or just give-up and go female aztec!
Not again...
Anyway, I've fixed the knees but haven't put up a new screenie. And I've forgotten to point out that it now uses the Greek Phalanx animations.
It was based on an Incan source pic, so it's not meant to look Aztecy. Maybe I'll do a new one at some point.

So what's next NikNaks? Perhaps a German GG? Seems Chug is busy spitting-out those ever-so-often-seen ethnically diverse spies right now (since they're way more seen then the explorers). 
I've just modelled the London Eye for no reason (moopoo is now skinning it) and I'm currently in limbo. 'Till Chuggi either sends me the files, releases a GGG or says that he is going to do neither, I'm not going to make it either.

How did I know you would say that?
I'm making more useful stuff now. Archers. And scouts
I can't give you something half finished! You can make an alternate version if you like, and then wolfy can choose between the two? Because you know how critical he can be, he could end up hating my new one worse than the current Hitler unit.

Actually I LOVE your mini-Hitler... he's so cute!I can't give you something half finished!
The problem (for me, and I imagine most others) is that we see little Hitler as a LH, not a GG.
You do great artwork Chuggi... I honestly can't think of a single model of yours I don't like... I just think the mini-Hitler was misplaced... Hitler is a LH, not a GG... I'd rather have McArther leading Germany's troops then mini-Hitler.
Ergo my delima... Germany still doesn't have a unique GG to lead the troops!
Somebody (and I really don't care who) needs to make a unique modern GG for Germany.
Everybody is busy pointing fingers at everybody else, but nobody has made one yet!

You may not get one from Chugg, but he does more-or-less send his message acrosss... Wolf's interpretation would be the following:
Chuggi:
1) Have you started a GGG? Yes
2) Are you going to release it? Eventually (serious backburner... 6-months or more)
3) Are you going to send it to me as it is? No... (make it yourself)

Nice explorer Niks...
I know that's what we've read into it, but I just want him to say it for himself.
I was straight enough?! I could send it to you as is but the model isn't finished and the uvw map isn't looking too good at the moment - so his hat has the entire texture all over it until I skin it properly. Unless you're a good modeller/skinner?
Ok just so you guys know -
It's not on a serious backburner I can finish it April/May probably. It's just that work and recovering from work takes up about 90% of my time, and then I gotta eat and everything, and then the small amount of modding time I have I spend it on units I enjoy making (Rommel is a boring unit to make, and not needed urgently as you would imply - specific modern generals are in the spy category ).
But in the mean time, NikNaks can make it if he wants to, or another German general, because there's a good chance my Rommel won't be in the next CDM update (he'll be in the one after, or released just by himself).
