Unit Previews: Pikemen

[kevincompton]

Don't forget about the Spanish Pikeman now that you did so awesome with the Egyptian one!

 

[Dease]

Egyptian Pikeman is complete!
now to the Koori Pikeman

@ kevincompton - I think that second pic you posted is exactly the same as the firaxian pikeman, andthe only difference with the first pic is the thing on the helmet, so, maybe you could do a C&P job, cause there's not much difference IMO.


but it could still be done............

 

[The Great Apple]

YAY! other than making into a civ flcs im done , I'm not sure if I'll release it tomorrow or wait till the koori dude is complete oh well, this calls for the banana!

Some bannana....

I like what your doing here. The save pose button is very useful. I think OFX will let you use any pose with the right "tree" for the skeleten, which can be VERY useful for generic animations which any foot unit can use, as you can sometimes use the same run animation for several units (though arm position sometimes is odd...)

 

[Dom Pedro II]

The problem with that banana website is that they have some kind of protection against linking directly to their images....

you have to copy and upload to CFC for it to work properly... I did it myself. It looked fine for like five minutes and then showed that mouse with his sign.

that's wierd, I don't even use the save pose thingy, rather I just take the current model I'm using, rename it to the model name I used for the african pikeman, then open the animation file and it now uses the new model with all the animations

Actually, that image is linked to that site, just right-click it and go to properites for the path

I'm going to try and finish a rough model of the koori dude tonight since school starts tomorrow for me and cause I'm goint to need lots of feedback on the colours

 

[Dom Pedro II]

Yeah, I know. That's what I'm saying... if you link directly to their site, you get an image just fine for a minute or two, and then it changes to the mouse...

 

[Dease]

mine has been linked directly to thier site for days and hasn't turnd into a "mouse"

 

[Dom Pedro II]

So it's only me that's seeing this????

Instead of the .gif of the banana, I see a banner with the website's name printed on a sign being held up by a little cartoon mouse with a piece of cheese....

 

[Dease]

yes.

EDIT: or not

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

I see that to DP....

 

[TopGun]

The Egyptian came out great.
Looking forward to the Koori Pikeman... Let me know if you need any help or feedback, OK?

 

[Dease]

Ok, school started today, so the model I really rushed the model for the koori guy, I need feedback on basically colouring for, everything, textures haven't been added to most of the model, and before you point it out, I'm going to fix the deformed muscles , ofx doesn't like how I attached the objects i suppose for the scale armor I didn't actually make seperate objects, rather I just applied a scale armor-like texture, I may create actual scale armor but I doubt it, if anyone has a good scale texture, I could use it
Finally, I have now clue what is covering his arms and legs so, if someone could enlighten me, I'd appreciate it

[Tsunami23]

lmao, his head looks......strange.

 

[Dease]

(i assume that's neither good nor bad )

Yeah, I think he looks like that guy from tintin

 

[Supa]

Captain Haddock

 

[Straczynski]

For some reason, he looks somewhat Southern European to me. Except for the hair and the boomerang, of course.

 

[Dease]

Well, due to my total lack of knowledge of the koori's I'm going to have to depend on others suggestions for the colours and acessories etc.
I think once I figure out what those lines on the legs are for, then it mak look better.
attached is a quick preview of the run, IMO it's fairly decent for what the model was like, some more textures, and suggestions on how to make it look more like a koori pikeman will make it better
EDIT: ignore those white splotches

ATTACHEMENT DELETED

 

[Goldflash]

Goldflash has request! ENGLISH Civil War Pikeman! With a PIKE! A Really Long PIKE.

Like Dis guy!

 

[Dease]

I could do that one, but IMO he's basically the firaxian pikeman with a long pike , so it'll be fairly low on the priorities if you really want it made. also if you want a pike that long he'd prolly be attacking the unit in the next tile over

 

[Dease]

BTW, I need more feedback before I can do anything else on this unit.
