haha background, I name my background files "bk". I didn't notice I typed that.

Just use a generic modern-looking scene, like the Vanilla leaders do.

 

[Blue Monkey]

For something modern & a little different, how about one of the Mexican murals by Diego Rivera?

Second that!

Some new Mexico background suggestions to get this finished.

Muy bien.

 

[Madeira]

Yep, Mexican one looking good, will use it to replace Firaxis'
Info on the Chinese one?

 

[Huayna Capac357]

The Chinese one's good, but who is it?

 

[Madeira]

Btw Shiro, could you post a preview of the Atlantean Queen with the new backgrounds you got? Or are you still looking for some?

 

[ShiroKobbure]

The Chinese one is no one really, since most portraits of Chinese rulers were often made by people who didn't see the emperor. I am going to use him for Shi Huang Di, Medieval is based off emperor Xuanzong of Tang.

The Chinese one is also Sima Rui of the Eastern Jin Dynasty for the "Wake of the Tiger" mod.

The garb for the 3rd Era Chinese one should look similar to CivArmy's Kangxi LH. Robe should be bright yellow; yellow was the emperor's color.

 

[ShiroKobbure]

Yes?
Im not too happy with the Modern Era. Is there any other important Chinese communist leaders? Hopefully one with facial hair...

 

[Huayna Capac357]

That is an excellent first draft! Unfortunately, all the communists appear to be clean-shaven. What needs work is the lips, hair, and the hat in the first era. The middle era is pretty much done. You could release it as a single era if you want. The industrial could use a little bit of work, but is mostly done.

EDIT: Have you released your Aztec and Mississippian LHs yet?

 

[Ogedei_the_Mad]

Chen Duxiu (co-founder of the Chinese Communist Party) had a mustache. Does that count?

 

[ShiroKobbure]

Someone's getting a face lift

 

[Huayna Capac357]

Much more realistic! Very very good! But what about Aztec dude and Mississippian woman?

 

[Ogedei_the_Mad]

Perhaps this can help with the modern era pic for the Chinese LH:

Li Dazhao (co-founder [with Chen Duxiu] of Chinese Communist Party)-

If you just gave your current one a mustache and glasses like this, he'd look almost exactly like Li Dazhao.

 

[TopGun]

my 2 cents: The modern era looks fine to me. Even though he does not look like Mao "to the T", he epitomizes the essence of Communist China. Well done.
