[LH] Leonidas of Greece.

[Wolfshanze]

To paraphrase:

Wolf: LH is good... odd that you chose to combine a helmet with a tunic.

Aranor: Greeks often fought in the nude.

Wolf: No... Greeks often fought in heavy armor... like with a helmet, shield and armor.

Aranor: There were a lot of Greek allies at Thermopolie... more then 300.

Wolf: Ummm... (confused)... All I'm trying to say is that in combat, Spartans wore heavy armor.

Aranor: I saw a naked statue once.

^^ If thats supposed to be a joke I don't get it.

Check your PM

It was the Readers Digest condensed version of this conversation... PM replied to!

My point is I showed you the evidence/ sources I used and you still questioned it. I used the best suited Leaderhead we currently have available (Caesar). If a better one existed I would have used him instead, but the fact is there is not.

I'm not even going to argue the rest it is pointless.

@ ROLAND

I will take a look at the texture on that leaderhead if you like I have a huge database of Brass and Bronze textures available on my comp that I have some neat ideas for! BtW is it a shader LH or a NOSHADER?

Yes it is shaded, and for the brass texture, I'll create my own, thanks !

 

[C.Roland]

Here is some different test that I made with a shinnier armor. Wich one do you prefer ?

[Aranor]

4 through to 5 hands down are the best. But in all of them the helmet needs a ton of work.

 

[avain]

I'd say 6 or 7. (From 1-4 I don't like the helmet's color...)

 

[Aranor]

Well you can accuse me of a great many things, and cruelty is one of them!

I have (because I was feeling particularly energetic) reskinned C.Roland's Leonidas. Now for the Cruel part, I'm going to show him to you, but you cant download him! The reason for this is I know Roland is working on updating his work, and unless he gives the go ahead I don't want to release this guy ahead of his work (I just don't think its fair).

Can you send me the dds plz. In your screen, it look good but it's hard to evalute only on a screenshot for shaded LH, so I would like to have a look at the normal and specular maps.

Sure. I'm on the Work computer right now, but I will be at home in an hour. I will zip it all up and send it to you then.

EDIT: Check your PM Roland. Hope you like

Since "300" came up many times, I thought I'd just throw this out there for anyone interested... it's the Leonidas helmet from the movie 300...

yea. Its a modern stylized version of a Corinthian Helmet basically what both the models here are wearing.
