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

[The Capo]

I was always under the impression that Amra was a man myself, but does it really matter?

 

[The Capo]

Just so there is no confusion about me... I am male.

Anyway, there is a minor complication with Chandragupta but I think it will be fixed soon so I'm not too worried about it. I think it is one of my best LHs actually, at least I hope it will be (if all goes correctly as I imagine it in my head.) Well here are three possible backgrounds. There is one I like SLIGHTLY more than the other two, but I think they're all pretty cool. So tell me what you think...

EDIT: I do realize that none of these BGs are historically accurate, well as far as I am aware they aren't. But it is hard to find stuff from his era.

Third one, definitely. The first one is pretty cool too, but I think the third one looks most simple but interesting.

Alright, the first in-game preview will use the third BG. But everyone else should still weigh in, because I want to get some other opinions.

I like the third one. Or the first one.

Alright, here's an in-game shot of Chandragupta with the third background (since cybrxkhan was the first to chime in I went with that for the preview). There are a couple obvious issues, I forgot to shader the turban for one. That extra sash I put on him (the green one) is clipping a lot, and I think with the way he folds his arms I might just remove it altogether, then the armband he has clips a little but that should be easy to fix. I think it looks pretty good other than those things. I also have to figure out how to get the Jewel on his turban to have the effect that Victoria's has (it's from her BTW), I'll look into that but if anyone reading this knows and could tell me that would also be awesome.

He doesn't look as stiff now, does he cybrxkhan?

Anyway, thoughts?

EDIT: Better not defy Emperor Chandragupta Maurya Bakuel...

 

[cybrxkhan]

His face is still rather stiff. Although that could just be something with the model and the animations and sculpting - not something too major. Actually it kind of works well in a way, as you said, making him look more badass.

So he's just as marvelous as we expected. And I'll definitely be stuffing him in as the other Chandragupta, historically accurate or not.

 

[MadmanOfALeader]

I'm so much in fear of your awesome LH, I feel I should give him something.

 

[The Capo]

Thanks, now he's surrounded with es!

Chandragupta looks fantastic! I reckon the perfect background would be #3 but with the sky from #1, simply because blue skies are so coomon. If that doesn't work then either of #1 or #3 would be great.

The sky could easily be changed.

Chandragupta looks awesome Capo! It's great to see another Indian leader!

But I'm afraid he's going to have to wait a bit for his army...

That's alright, I suppose he'll just have to fast until he gets his way...

Chandragupta later adopted Jainism. It is said he died fasting which was according to Jainism a holy way of sacrificing mortal life.

...on second thought, maybe he shouldnt...

 

[AbsintheRed]

I like the first BG most, but you should use the 3rd one somewhere too, it's also pretty good

 

[Graceheart the Leopard]

The Iron Pillar of Delhi should work.

"Latest Leaderheads" section now updated with links to Chandragupta v1 and Pyrrhus of Epirus v2.

 

[cybrxkhan]

Awesome. I'll be stuffing them in WoL as... Phrryryrhus (whatever it is, I can never get it right) and the other Chandragupta.

Thanks for the concern TLO, but one of my BIGGEST pet peeves is when someone posts a picutre that big in any thread, especially mine. Could you crop it or spoil it or remove it please?
