Modern Worker flavour

[Spillsandstains]

hello chickens I knocked these up a while ago, in my simple yet enthusiastic fashion. they are mod-worker flavour flav, based on a shrunken headed modern worker, plus heads nicked off other models. oh and a cap.

sorry no in - game screenies, but cut outs of screenies from nifskope

they all use the modernworker.kfm animations

one is for a middle eastern artstyle. overalls in honour of my dad who was a factory electrician. RIP pops! x

one is a steppe artstyle. hence he gets a ushanka cap

one is a generic new world modern worker. couldn't find a jaguar pelt texture that looks good at game scale so gave him a teamcolour shirt instead

all have the .dds textures they need; white bits in the pictures will pick up the textures in - game as they are located in the art/shared folder

hope they can be of same use; I'd like to be able to cut down the file sizes, but this is the best I can do right now

Very nice...there aren't many modern workers, these are a great addition, thankyou!

I wish I'd done one with native American headdress now, then I could have set up a village people tableaux with them . . .you only have the good ideas later

I think i'll try for a se-asia style, the one I've got does have that all - important coolie hat BUT is missing pigtail and a fu-manchu moustache. I will remedy this.

I KNOW RIGHT?!!

As a fully-fledged, fully-feathered, unit-graphics-loving Chicken Lord, I'm happy to report that I'm happy to see that happy people are happily making Civ4 stuff still!

I already added your existing 3 workers to my in-progress mod update, btw. Very flappy.

Me too, I wish there were more people making unit stuff for Civ 4 than for Civ 3 and 5. Civ 4 needs more love on the unit making scene.

Say, is it possible you could make a version for modern Japanese workers? I think this (http://msnbcmedia.msn.com/i/MSNBC/Components/Slideshows/_production/ss-Japan-Quake-tabbed/week2/Day9_ss110318japanquake/ss-110318-japanQuake-jc-02.jpg) would be more fitting than the one Varietas Delectat got (which looks downright stereotypical).

Things have really gotten quiet here compared to Civ3(always an awesome close-knit, talented community) and Civ5(fun group of talented artists).

On the Civ3 boards they have artist competitions and contests, maybe if we make an effort to liven up these boards it would help.

I have loads of stuff I've made over the years but the earliest stuff is awful. I've only just discovered you can prune shapes in nifskope and i'm experimenting with this; in the meantime anything I make is often enormous, and limited to sticking bits onto an existing shape. I think it's an art - led game and it's a pity that so little new art is produced but it's old innit?

Will try to release stuff I like . . . you are right about civ3, I think they have fun there. there was loads of silly art for civ3 and it was possible to have a really fun game, godzillas vs atomic pimps, but it was a bit limited.

Have you got any stuff to release?

My main project is of coarse my mod, but I've also been experimenting with reskining, I've made a decent Haida Sailing Canoe skin, still more I can do though.

Hello pupae and larvae I did a supposedly asieen - flava one too, attempting to use drdisco's image as a guide. not very well!

the model is someone else's and the baseball cap comes off a fury road settler. I cut some bits off it's head which is new to me, don't be surprised if your computer blows up if you use it or something, I'm still learning. it's been tested in - game. I even took a nifskope shot. invoice sent.

I'm working on another one bearing the hoary old engineer hat/head too, I want to get the bulky look of the clothes of the chaps in the photo

finally, drdisco is a brilliant monicker and I'm jealous
