I think I've seen a crossbow version with sword and shield somewhere... From the look of that helmet on the picture it seems like removing the shield from this crosbow swordsman would come close.
Edit: found it. You can download it here. It's the swordsman with the crossbow helmet on the second pic.

thank you! I'm actually a vastly experienced shakespearian actor, don't you know?
I'm not sure that's the famous one, Kochmann... 
Looking in my history books, i also can't find a french great general.
Sorry, couldn't resist
.You should look around in the medieval units section. There's sure not the perfect unit for you there, but a dark uniformed swordsman should be available.

I have what appears to me at least to be a pretty simple request. I'd try it myself but I am having problems with DXTBmp right now so I can't really make DDS textures until I figure out why its screwing up on me. Anyway here it is....
...I probably don't need to say this, but its a Spanish Knight. It would be really cool of someone to do this for me. Thanks in advance.

Since Bakuel is back in school and probably won't be as prolific as he has been lately (thanks again for everything Bakuel) I am trying to make some ancient Spanish units for my mod. So far I have come up with this, its still a bit of a WIP but I just wanted to know what you guys thought. I'll probably make the cape/cloak a bit more gold/yellow to match Spain's colorscheme (in my mod they have the vanilla Inca colors) and so it stands out a bit from the rest of the attire.
I'm trying to learn to make units, its pretty tough for me so far for some reason. Even though people keep insisting that making units is easier. But this is the first of the ancient Spanish set, I intend on doing a whole ancient set. Anyway what do you guys think?

Making units isn't an easy matter, expecially if you wish to compete with firaxis quality of Vanilla and Warlord units. Obviously you may arrange a unit and made it playable, like most of the units around here and like most of the BTS units. Curiously I've seen lots of units absolutely unplayable with nifscope that work perfectly in game instead, while I've made some playable units in nifscope that didn't work in game instead.
About your swordman, it looks good and gives a spanish feeling in a game contest.

Well, all I know is that its a lot harder to make a good leaderhead than a good unit.
Very nice
just fix the pink sword problem and they'll look great. The dude stabbing in the top right picture looks like he's using a lightsaber lol.

Probably missing a glossmap or something.

Yeah its missing a glossmap, the unit isn't finished, I just wanted to see that it would work in-game and did it quickly. I'll have a whole set of Iberian units by the time I'm finished.
Anyone want to make that Spanish Knight for me?

I'll take the knight, since I've got an axe-knight somewhere

Cool! Although the Axe part isn't all that important. If its easier to make it with a sword or a lance that's fine too.
Done, with an axe - http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?p=8408721#post8408721

Land mines! 
I made 4 models in google sketch up,
-Anti Tank mine
-Anti Infantry mine
-I.E.D. (terrorist mine)
-C-4 Claymore mine
They are all exported to 3ds format, and here is the tread were you can see pictures of them all:
http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?p=8408772#post8408772
And I was wondering if someone here would be willing to turn them into useable units for the game?
I also have several rockets, that can bee seen here:
http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?p=8403037#post8403037
I have all the models and textures rolled up into one big zip file (rar)
~Please feel free to add better textures, and make any small changes to make them look better, or if there poly count is too high.

The claymore's good, but can't be operated from more than a fairly short distance - no good on a civ scale.

@ Flying Pig: BTW, you are probably going to get a warning about the length of your signature, its only supposed to be five lines. I get them all the time, so you might want to take care of that.

Well if you read through the land mines thread I posted, we talked about how we can make it work. We just need the files in the right format to be put in game, Afforess said he could do the rest?
