[WIP] Project Civ: A Quality-Oriented Civ Pack

*DOUBLE POST*!!!

Ok, this one's an easy one... Guess the leader?

Without a doubt, Leonidas.

I have only one complaint here. Leonidas would not have carried that standard on his shield.

He would have carried the standard of the royal house, seen below...

That said, this is really good for an initial show. Apart from the standard, you seem to have nailed the panoply. See if you can get the thorax to be a bit more... bronzey?

A few non-mission-critical things to add...

A spartan would have had a medium length beard. Not nearly Taliban or Amish tier, but longer than what is depicted here. He would have also had long hair coming out from under his helmet, most likely. Both of these were symbols of freedom, which Spartans made great pains to both defend and idolise.

Also, what's up with the shoulder stage left?

You're right, thanks for the advice.

Here's my personal edits to this. What think? Tried to play around with the shield a bit, balanced the colour of the helmet to match the rest of the panoply... Fixed the ice on his cloak.

Tried another posing...

The arm feels off. The pose doesn't feel very natural.

I felt like that myself. Hell, had to revert to undo all the crap I did doing that arm. Time to start all over.
 
Yeah, I also like this one
Altough maybe the shield is a little too red now
Could be somewhat more pale (or paler? :confused:)
Somewhere between this version and Leugi's, but closer to this one
 
I suppose that the biggest issue I have with the White'r shield is that it doesn't armonize so well with the Bronze Armor and Helm... But otherwise its good (and I presume more historically correct), I do prefer the old pose however :p
 
Yeah, definitely the old pose
 
The civ is coming together, but it's still a bit sketchy.

I guess it will benefit greatly from some 3d models brought in by BNW :crazyeye:

Irkalla, I'm updating my list of mod art to-do and I'd need to know what maps or Icons are needed atm. From what I know, I have to provide a leader icon and vulture warrior icon for Sumer, but what else is needed? I assume you won't want to re-use vanilla maps (e.g. Greek for Macedonia), so which exactly could I do and which ones aren't already being made by the almighty sukritact? :crazyeye:
 
Is that going to be the Lakota or the Sioux?

BTW Jan Boruta, I'm attempting to make a Sumer leader, and it would be nice to have the icon look like the leader :D

Actually, I'm using the map, leaderhead, and dom of Greece for Macedonia. I saw no point in a reissue.

The map is even called MapMacedonia in the files. It clearly marks out Pella and such... It's like they were planning on doing Macedonia, then decided on a panhellenic civ.

No :scared:

But yeah, we've been talking about them. Only one of the uniques is really settled upon, and that's the War Chief. War Chief replaces Great General, and causes all units that begin their turn within 2 tiles of him to ignore terrain cost penalties, except for rivers. I think their UA will be something like Doubled horses, horses yield a culture, improved horses yield 2. Something like that.

War Chief will have a unique list of names too. Gall, Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, Rain in the Face, Inkpaduta, Crow King, Red Shirt, Low Dog, Kill Eagle, and Blue Horse.

Was thinking about Dog Warrior, but I remembered that they are Cheyenne.
