GeneralMatt's Creation Thread

[Gaius Octavius]

Hopefully we'll get you back to Civ and away from HoI soon enough...

 

[Wolfshanze]

Yep, it is almost done, I have been working on it intermittenly while trying to defeat Axis Germany with just the Commonwealth Nations (US don't want to help) in HoI. But she is coming a long fine, hopefully will make the RN proud. (Not to mention the IJN)

Well, the RN built it for the IJN, but they used it to sink the Russian navy!

In any case, get er done!

 

[GeneralMatt]

Yah, I finished the UV mapping but as I said to Wlofshanze in a PM

Sorry about the Mikasa delay, I had just finished UV mapping her (took a few hours) and then I saved over the thing with what I was sure was an updated version with the UV mapping, bu it wasn't. The model was there, but the UV mappng will need to be done all over again, so..

Man, I am not looking forward to doing it all over again..

 

[Wolfshanze]

Well, if you're bored making ships Matt...

The Austrians could use some units!

Austrian Musketman

Austrian Grenadier

Austrian Rifleman

Austrian Rifleman (differant look)

Austrian Rifleman helmet

Austrian Rifleman (differant color uniform)

Austrian Infantry

 

[GeneralMatt]

As I said in the PM, I feel my land units are ok, and just that. Maybe a couple are nice, but in general..

 

[Wolfshanze]

Austrian Musketman and Grenadier would probably take you like 10 minutes each... use existing Redcoat and Grenadier models... apply textured white uniforms... PRESTO!

You can do it man!

 

[GeneralMatt]

Who is that ugly looking person (Shudders). Yah, certainly, it would not take long. We will see for sure..

 

[Wolfshanze]

One of these Musketmen...

And one of these Grenadiers...

I'm sure you could whip both up in under an hour!

You can do it man!

I'll admit that this is the first time I saw someone trying to motivate with Rob Schneider, very creative!
If this does not kick-in, what will?

Hehe... well, if Rob Schneider can't motivate you, who can?

I'm sure Matt is probably working on some Austrian troops right now... why else would he be so scarce on the forum lately? I'm sure Rob Schneider has motivated him to work night and day on many Austrian troops and pre-dreadnoughts!

 

[GeneralMatt]

Haha. Yeah after the two days without a connection I realized how much I did not miss the internet, and so have been having a hard time getting back in the swing of things.

That said, I did start re mapping the Mikasa, hope she will slip out soon.

 

[GeneralMatt]

Ok, here is an image of the Mikasa in game, what does she need to be better?

 

[RPG]

She looks like a fine ship! Nice to see you back at it.

 

[GeneralMatt]

Yeah, I don't know if you heard, but I had totally mapped her, and then, thinking that the version I was saving it over with had the the mapping done (which of course it did not) so I lost my only thing with it mapped. So that set me back for a while.

 

[RPG]

Despite the set back, she came out rather nice!

Now where is Wolfshanze? I think he should see this.

 

[Wolfshanze]

Looks pretty good to me Matt... at least from that angle/scale... hard to tell for sure without some close-ups, but looks good from that image.

Should be about time to kick-out some Austrian troops and/or another USS Iowa.

 

[GeneralMatt]

Here is a closeup. Yah, those other things are on the hopefully-soon-queue..

 

[avain]

Beautiful ship! Are you releasing her?

 

[Wolfshanze]

Still kinda hard to do a secondary gun count, but looks good to me from what I can see! I assume after all the secondary gun counts we've done on the Canopus, I'm sure Matt got this one right!

Release away... and if you got the gun count wrong I'll harras you later!

 

[GeneralMatt]

Avan@ Yep, she is coming out today Lord willing.

Wolfshanze@ Exactly, I counted, and recounted and triple counted.. etc I hope I have it right. I will release her in a few minutes.
