And while you're on it again: We've dicussed the issue with the naked men in the staff forum. The decission is, that we'll judge on non-sexual nudity contextual case by case.
So, in case that we'll here again see explicitely some important parts of the unit D), then please host the image off site and use a spoiler with a clear nudity warning (if the image was uploaded here, the spoiler would not work due to the thumbnails, that's the only reason why i say off site).

Hey The-J, thanks for the note. I had actually intended to be careful on this and as said before would not post any revealing shots until final unit is done, then you can decide. The above shot was chosen as it was not revealing. If I do need to post a shot in my discussions of weapon/ unit editing, I will either censor it or as you said post a spoiler... once I figure out how to do that .

I think deciding things case-by-case on non sexual nudity of units is a great idea for the future of the forum even if it means you say no to mine... which I really hope you won't do

Cheers!

WOW that's great news The_J!! I won't hesitate on spending lots of time working on these units now. Sure SaibotLieh will be pleased too, with all the work he has put into this! Cheers

Hey there. That shield is looking good!! Only a slight change... can the centre metal square punch be slightly larger, and also protude slightly more?

I am tryin to alter the axe to make a little more like a Pictish hatchet... never thought I would say 'I wish I had a PC'... but blender is so painful on Mac, keeps crashing and is very buggy... so taking a long time but looking good. Might need some help cleaning it up after though.

EDIT: extra image, showing original square buckler shield. The centre metal punch is a good size on that one!!

So I finally made the Pictish hatchet. I know little about blender as it doesnt really work right on my Mac, so I think it might need a professional's check over to see if all os ok. Took bloody ages making it

Wanted to make a Pictish squarehead axe blade too as it is a very unique looking axehead, but I feel it may be beyond both my current 3D skillset and application stability

If all is ok with it, could we use this to replace the axe?

Cheers SaibotLieh!

Modified the shield and replaced the axe. Hope you like it.

Sure I am.

That is looking great!

Can we scale up the Hatchet a bit. Maybe 1.5 times larger?? Think that might be the right size visually.

He can hold the hatchet halfway to two thirds the way down the handle. Will start working on the body graphics soon.

Thanks, really helped

Does anyone make or know were i can get a unit that looks like an athlete or sport player? I want to add Great athletes to my mod

 

[dacubz145]

I guess this looks like a job for... SaibotLieh *heroic film music plays*

I guess the pictish units could easily be converted to some almost naked, greek, olympian Athlete with some texture and hair-lenght changes. Another option might be the 300 inspired Spartan made by Ambrox. If the cape, spear and shield could be removed and the head replaced with the one from the greco-roman warrior, I think you're good to go.

Don't know for modern though.

Doesnt need to be modern, ill message saibotLieh, hope someone can make it, Great athlete would be a cool edition to my mod

While I'm a bit flattered about this I don't know if I really want to be known best for making barely dressed units.

Well, veBear's idea about the modified Spartan model sounds promising. However, I also need to know which animation set the athlete should be using. While it is not necessary, a convenient choice would be one of the other great person animation sets. But I can't create a new animation set for you.

 

[Justinian14]

i am terible at art could you also make those POTC heros for me?

Honustly any animations would really work. The animations arent to important to me. As long as the unit looks like an athelte. Artist or warlord probably works the best. Thanks

I don't know if I'm intersted in that. Maybe you should post a bit more about how you imaging those units. If you can't tickle my interest, maybe you have more luck with somebody else who's reading this.

That is far to late by now

Darn!

Well, the problem is that I don't really know how the unit should look like and most probably don't care as much as you do. So, make the creation of the unit easier by chosing one animation set and I'll be more willingly to create that unit for you.
