Trajan (New Animated 3D LH)

[C.Roland]

Here a preview of what i'm working on. The Roman emperor, Trajan.

I want to make a new LH that we can not tell which leader I used for the base model.

So here is it, it should be ready for next week.

 

[Donkey Puncher]

what will his traits be

 

[Head Serf]

It looks fantastic, glad to see another Roman leader.

 

[Edgecrusher]

Looks good, I wish I knew more about blender to edit the existing LHs

 

[C.Roland]

what will his traits be

I do not know for his traits, I only do the art.

By the way, is the base model recognizable ?

I used Shaka LH.

 

[Aranor]

I couldnt tell who he was

 

[Leif]

I certainly didn't guess his base model.
As for his traits, I would say Expansive/Creative, Expansive/Imperialist, Imperialist/industrious or Imperialist/Creative

He brought the Roman Empire to it's largest extent, and is known as the 'noble pagan' by Dante and other Christian Theologians. Thus he deserves a trait representing both a large empire (and gaining it) and creativity due to his peaceful rule or his advancement of building up the Roman Empire.

Is it possible to have Trajan's Column (some obilesk) in the background What sorts of neat things could he say?

"I am Trajan, see my glory!"
"I am Trajan, see my story!"

 

[Gaius Octavius]

Nice job! Question: is that Trajan's forum in the background? Seems sort of reminiscent of it. A view of his column would definitely be a nice addition.

As far as his traits go, I think we need something that reflects his superb leadership and popularity. He was, after all, given the title of optimus princeps, the "best" emperor. Charismatic / Imperialistic might be an interesting combo. Of course, this might make him TOO powerful, as it would reduce the XP needed for each unit promotion, making those Legions even more dangerous. But then he did expand Rome's borders to their greatest extent, so this wouldn't necessarily be ahistorical. I usually find that the praetorians overrun everybody else in the game anyway...

C.Roland: Do you think you could change his hair a bit? I once had someone tell me that Trajan actually looks a bit like Moe Howard. (it's true!) BTW, if you plan on making any more Romans, may I suggest someone from the Republican era, such as Scipio or Sulla? That time often seems to have been overlooked.

I based on this sculpture for his hair :

I'll try to add the Trajan column

My next roman LH will probably be Caligula (Requested). It's a request, but I'M happy with it. His supposed to be Ugly and it will be funny to do.
