New unit preview : Spear Mistress (what do you think)

So tell me what do you think of this unit...
...Should I go for it, and make her ?

Here's the victory anim preview :

strange, the gif seem to appear too slow
my original play like 3 times faster....

 

[aaglo]

She looks very cool, but does she really float in the air?

 

[LBPB]

No I will remove the shadow later

 

[aaglo]

BTW, I was just wondering, how does she spin that stick? Even in this slow motion preview it's faster than eye. I'd say she's a pro

 

[Colonel Kraken]

Frickin' awesome!! Nothin' like a professional spear spinning babe to make you say ooh-ahhh.

 

[Steph]

Excellent!

Do you plan to fill the gaps in the amazon? BlueO units are nice (even if some of them could be better), but a lot are missing.

For instance, we badly need an archer!

 

[LBPB]

In fact I need this unit for my great lost civilization mod.

Some Amazon warrior will appear in the Trojan War Scenario.

 

[LouLong]

First, it looks beautiful (not only the girl BTW, mind you ).

But I am not sure she really qualifies as a spearwoman. Looks more like she is practising some long stick martial art.

 

[LBPB]

Ok, just give me some name for her !

How boout just "Amazon Mistress"

 

[Kal-el]

you obviously have some real animating talent, what other units can we look forward to seeing from you?

one question I have is how likely is it htat they would fight bear brested? those things would really get in the way. I think it is more likely that they would wrap them up to keep them out of the way, much liek an ancient sportsbra.

Only if Grizzly are around

 

[Kal-el]

bare/bear/beer what's the diff?

 

[LBPB]

Now the Attack Animation

 

[Kindred72]

Looks great. Can't go wrong with naked female warriors is what i always say.

But, are you really gonna have a shadowless unit?

 

[Kal-el]

looks like you gave her some "support" this time. I am sure she appreciates it.

as I said before, I'm having some trouble with the palette in the transition between The 3 anim and flicster

I've PM Kingboat about that prob, hoping he will respond, cause he's a so busy unit maker...

 

[LBPB]

Notes for volunteers , if somes of you are interested in helping me creating more units in less time...

I would really appreciate if some of you would help me in making some "cut & paste" of my exported gif animations into flicsters PCX (some little knowledge of both flicster & color palette are needed), so I could focus on 3d rendering & animating.

 

[Klyde182]

LBPB I'd love to help out. I have some knowledge of both mostly the palette but I'm an aspiring animator but just beginning to learn the basics....what da ya say.....Klyde
