VERSION 2 features new armor by C.Roland

 

[Agent327]

This is a work in progress

How so? The little fella looks fine to me!

 

[Ekmek]

I need to fix the robe, some minor face adustments, and put better wreath/laurels on. It'll look better

@RulerofDaPeople
I decided to go with the Armor, most pix I saw had him in armor nd I just like the armor . After I finish some other leaderheads a may do a version in the toga.

 

[Gaius Octavius]

It is a very nice start, although the intersection between the toga and the armor does look a bit odd.

What background are you going to give him? The Milvian Bridge might be appropriate though I do not know if there are any good pictures you could use.

 

[C.Roland]

Nice Start ! Look really nice

Maybe a minor recolor of the armor and everything would be perfect

Don't know if it will be really historical, but to differentiate from Augustus armor, maybe you can go with a black or white cuirass (ok, my inspiration for this is the Gladiator movie, and the movie is more than 100 years before Constantine, and I don't know a lot about Roman emperor armor fashion)

 

[Chiyu]

Great leaderhead!

 

[Ekmek]

Ok I fixed most of constantine and adusted the background. The animations now work great. I was tempted to mess with the armor, but I wonder what RulerofDaPeople thinks so far.

EDIT: attachments removed no longer necessary

 

[TheLastOne36]

looks good. Constantine is a much needed leaderhead to.

 

[Agent327]

Looks perfect - armour too!

 

[RulerOfDaPeople]

Hey, no complaints from the peanut gallery here. I'm ecstatic that we're finally getting a Constantine leaderhead... and a good one too!

 

[Ekmek]

ok, then I'll upload it soon

EDIT:

Its uploaded now HERE

RulerofDaPeople I want to here how your first game goes and I expect a high rating in the DL section on it from you

 

[Amra]

He looks good Ekmek.

 

[Vrenir]

Very nice. I also really like how the camera-angle change makes it look different from Augustus. (In fact, I'd kind of like to replace the Augustus leaderhead with this one so that all the Augustus rip-offs look more distinct.)

 

[Shqype]

Nice, one of the Illyrian emperors of the so called "Illyrian Dynasty" of Rome.

 

[Cethegus]

Very nice. I also really like how the camera-angle change makes it look different from Augustus. (In fact, I'd kind of like to replace the Augustus leaderhead with this one so that all the Augustus rip-offs look more distinct.)

Ambitious. That Constantine looks excellent! Nice to see that not every custom leaderhead needs to remind a leader already in the game. This is a quality LH if I ever saw one.

 

[RulerOfDaPeople]

Ekmek is my Hero.


Haven't had the chance to install it yet, but I'll figure that out tomorrow.

 

[Edward The Big]

If anyone would like to make a modular version of this....That would be awesome.

 

[RulerOfDaPeople]

but I'll figure that out tomorrow.

I'm um... still figuring....

 

[Ekmek]

for mudular leaderheads you need to make a civilization, leaderhead, and artdefines_leaderhead file. The best way to do this is copy the the standard ones, add a prefix (i.e. CTG_CIV4ArtDefines_Leaderhead.xml) and copy the schema file that is listed at the top of the file. I tend to add a prefix to those as well which means you have to edit where it is written at the beginning of the files.

Excellent !

Probably your best, or one of your LH so far ! The best fan made roman leader for sure. Personally, I'm happy that you keeped the armor, I think it look better like this than only a toga
