New leader elimination

[Morningcalm]

RFormica, you can always modify photos/paintings etc that you find to make it stylish in th painterly style of your Edward IV leaderscreen for example.

For Ur-Nammu there are images of his head (bearded) which might fit better.

Al-Mansur 10-3=7 - I'm not very interested in seeing a mod for a second Arab leader.
Ramesses II 24+1=25 - On the other way, seeing this great Pharaoh again would be actually nice.
Henry IV (France) 15
Shivaji 21
Ur-Nammu 32

I think this elimination game is over, Kimiimaro.

Didn't notice that - the first page still says "VOTING OPEN"

Fixed, but the first page also says, "Five winners, and priority will be determined by number of points"

Oh, okay then... However, I think a second round would be nice sometime, since there are many leaders to be used... *thinks of Puabi*

Oh, definitely a second round will happen! I just don't know how the timeframe will work; making five mods will take a while. Probably next round there will be around 20 or 30 leaders to choose from and one winner.

Perhaps this thread can be locked and re-created after DLC06 is released.

Anyway, I used Photoshop (but I do think that Gimp can open Photoshop files)

What do you think is the issue?... besides his right arm, that looks strange. I have been working on that for a while, so I think it's harder for me to see issues.

(It seems like the file is too big for here, so I'll do it on a different website)

To be honest, Its very disjointed, and not very comfortable to be looked at with it weird proportion and non-dimension. I know its still in its alpha stage, but if you can please share the raw files so maybe others can help smoothening it out.

 

[RFormica]

I've done some updates; will upload if I get CivFanatics upload feature to work... :/

It can be uploaded as a .zip file.

 

[RFormica]

Yeah I know, file's huge, and it just crashed after I tried to upload it multiple times.

I hope RFormica dont mind me taking a bit of an innitiative and try to make my own LS for Ur-Nammu. The method is still the same, aka frankensteining, but I try to use a base from MakeHuman model. I had just try to picture the head area first, so its still WIP, but What do you guys think?

Spoiler :

At least it looks very good, albeit anachronistic. He doesn't look like Frankenstein's monster at all, which is a major plus.

Spoiler :

Looks good! And also, I forgot to share this, I cleaned the 2D model of him up. A lot. (And I do plan on releasing Ur with a few other Sumerian leaders, notably Gudea and... well, I haven't decided on the last one , so maybe I can use that model for the undecided leader.)

Spoiler :

I think that he looks less like the child of Frankenstein's Monster and the Hunchback of Notre Dame now.

Puabi, maybe?

 

[RFormica]

Um, I don't think that Puabi had a beard .. but then I do feel like the fertile crescent is underrepresented, so maybe Gilgamesh will have to make space for... four more leaders... ...or maybe five... but I'm probably getting ahead of myself.

 

[RFormica]

Ooh, Enmerkar would be a good choice for a fifth as well!
-Builder of Uruk
-Also built a wall to protect Uruk
-Invented writing on clay tablets
-Mastermind behind the Tower of Babel
Yup, this guy sounds great!*





*Even though he almost certainly didn't exist**


**Even less likely than Gilgamesh and Tomyris

 

[Morningcalm]

Why not the True Shepherd, Gudea of Lagash? I think that guy is screaming out for a priest-king leader ability. He was also a social reformer, defensive, and quite modest for a Sumerian ruler. Perhaps also quite importantly, we know almost exactly what he looked like due to numerous lifelike statues of him we found.
