The Capo's LH Gallery and Self-Help Thread!

I don't think so, I didn't shader it at least, so I don't see how it would be.

You're right it is not shdered. But this is one of the last LHs that need shadering. There are more "urgent" ones- Gustav Adolph, Ekmek's old LHs I couldn't shader...
 
Well, urgent to you maybe. I am shadering the ones in my mod first, then the ones in my modules after that. So Hiawatha will be before Gustav.
 
Hey Capo!
Just wanted to say, you have made many amazing LHs recently :goodjob:
Cant wait to see the upcoming ones ;)

Btw, I always thought I would prefer a redheaded Vercingetorix, but have to admit, he is awesome with blonde hair too!

Thanks a lot man! Two that are definitely coming up are Lalibela and Maurits van Nassau. Other than that I'm not sure just yet, I have a few in mind, but as far as the list for the next four I'm just not sure yet. I am making them for my mod, so I do have a specific list of LHs I am going to make.

And I too thought he should have red hair, but a bunch of people said it should be blonde. So I gave the masses what they wanted.
 
Oh yeah, i know some of your plans :)
Just updated my LH list for CivGold a few hours ago, read all the threads and everything, so right now i'm pretty clear with LHs from the last few months...
Included some of the WIPs too (the ones I remembered), so on average every 3rd line has your name. All of your LHs deserve to be there :D

Speaking of the list. I was searching for your Mick Collins, and noticed that some of your LHs are not in the DB.
The ones that u made for Diplomacy I, and mostly reskins or simple LHs. I suppose u didn't uploaded them because they are not entirely your work, but they are still much better than their previous versions.
So i think many users would be glad if these were up too :)
 
Not urgent at all. Just noticed this and wanted to ask you if this is/was intentional.
I'm not really sure either how many similar LHs u have from Diplomacy, but i think there were a few other ones...

When I said "urgent" I meant- more in need of shaders. I'm in no hurry, and I might even try and shader some more old LHs.
 
For some reason, I thought you did one of Robert the Bruce. Or maybe I dreamed it?
I guess it was wishful thinking. I just never really liked the one in Civ Gold.

Have you seen this one?

While I get that figured out, I figured I might as well get started on the new batch of LHs. I decided to go with the easier one first, and that is David Ben-Gurion. I decided to go in a slightly different direction from Ekmek's version, so I used the clothing from (Bernie14's?) Mahmoud Ahmedinejad, modified of course. The texture on the face isn't that great, all I really did was recolor John Adams' so far, so this is by no means the final texture (not to mention I'm not very happy with the skin color anyway), but do you guys think the concept is alright? I can make edits to the shoulders and stuff like that later, I'm just talking about the general concept here.

I kind of disapprove this version. I understand where you're going with the face and the hair, and if you can make him really look like Ben-Gurion it will be great. Try to look at Ekmek's Ben-Gurion because the face came out really well, you can really recognize it is Ben-Gurion. Now, the problem is the clothes you chose- you went in a totally wrong direction.
Ben-Gurion should wear a suit like this one:

.
BUT, if you really want to make a more realistic Ben-Gurion and not another politician in a suit, you should make him look more simple. Like here:

Ben-Gurion also liked wearing military clothes like here:

I hope I helped.
 
That is probably the one you were thinking of cairnsy. I forget who made the texture, but I asked him to do it for my Scotland module (because I also hated the one from CivGold). But that wasn't my work.

It was Gabihime.
 
Well if Ekmek's is fine there isn't really a point to making a new one is there? I could just add a few things to his or something. And the attire I had on him was based on an actual photo of him, that's why he's dressed like that.

Ekmek's is almost perfect. You could, however, try and change his clothes to something more simple that would say "I live in a shack in the desert".
 
Well Ekmek's is set in an office or at a press conference or something like that, so I can't make him look that scruffy. I wanted to use John Adams to emulate the messy hair, plus the shape of his head is very close to Ben-Gurion's, the only major differences are his brow, nose and chin. Now I'm not too sure if I should create a new Ben-Gurion or just try to make Ekmek's a little better.
 
i think mine needs to shadered and reskinned. plus the hair could be better by using john adams alpha channel hair.

Yeah, I liked your Ben-Gurion but everyone who played my mod (well not everyone but most of them) complained that it looked too much like Churchill, and the hair looked fake so I was going to make a new one. But if Igor says yours looks just like him then it looks just like him, I guess I could edit it but it isn't my LH so I don't really want to do that. So Ben-Gurion is out.
