Love it, having the uniform for the three different places is brilliant. It does kind of reminds me of that one improved greeks mod, can't remember who made that.

Im sorry guys,but those textues aren't very good. Spend more time on the head textures I think.

I agree and in my opinion the textures unfortunately don't look as good as ES' textures. So this is contrary to the information in the text saying that Epic Studios is dedicated to quality.

u can freely take my heads:

Ha! Lies! It's still open!

We still are working on the textures. they've been slightly updated on the update pic, but we're still working. Hard.

can you put an image of those linothorax textures..the texture itself

In the update picture, the guy on the far right has a very strange misshapen head disease. You should get him to a doctor. The shield on the far left is off center, and I'd suggest using geometrical methods of fixing the alignment rather than free-handing it. With the inside right guy's sideways plume, what's up with the two lines hanging off of the end?

The guy with the bull shield is probably the most complete out of the 4, and it looks as though his helmet has been corrected from the beta, but if it hasn't you should get a blacksmith on that. It must be very uncomfortable to wear a helmet that doesn't fit like that.

The Spartan's shield is quite inaccurate, and very low resolution. I'll just leave it at that.

On the plus side, your greaves and sandals look magnificent. Keep on truckin'!

Im sorry guys,but those textues aren't very good.

Can you tell us what to change about the textures, and the heads? Their shape isn't exactly right but that's because it is zoomed in and that's the model, not the texture anyway. What should we add?

I'd be delighted to. Still noting on that updated screenshot, the guy on the far right's plume is too tall, somewhat lopsided and too fat. The small piece of metal holding the plume is far too tall, and I think his face is a bit too tall.

Nearly the direct opposite for your friend on the inside left with the white plume. His plume is straight from the front, but sort of sideways from the side and a tad skinny.

The fellow on the far left looks alright, other than the fact that the parts of the helmet that meet in front of his nose and mouth is slanted away from each other at the bottom where they should be parallel.

Don't be afraid to add a few more polygons to that shield model, because it looks a tad block at the moment. Tell your texture artist that he should make use of the pen tool to get more accurate lines rather than trying to free hand a straight line. It's terribly difficult without geometrical tools.

The pen tool? Is that some sorta tool in photoshop or something? The person who made those base shields had Gimp, and the textures are yet to be perfected.

Btw thanks for the feedback. I love it when people help!

So this is contrary to the information in the text saying that Epic Studios is dedicated to quality.

Why is this? This is a Beta showcase. We basically haven't worked on shields or heads, so you cannot say they are bad, because we are not finished. But what studio succeds without critisism? And comments? We thank you for this, and we promise you we will fix the changes you desribe.

Those stringy things hanging down are from this pic:

Of a Spartan Royal helmet.

tysm ppe

It means a lot and we hope to get these looking better soon!

Actually, the pen tool is standard throughout most advanced photo editors, including Gimp.

I see now, but it could be widened. Right now, it looks more like a mistake than a tassel-like thing.

Oops, forgot to close. *blush*

But, seeing as this is the more active thread, which do the creators want me to close?

Mine, of course.

Even though that pic has stringy things hanging down, I think you would be better off with deleting that part. It just doesn't look right for some reason...

Man... big improvements are coming to these guys. We're even planning a scenario.

I think the main issue with the dangling crest bits are that they start towards the outside of the crest rather than from the helmet itself, which makes it look awkward. Also, bring the crest hanging down a tad rather than directly parallel to the ground. Looks surreal.

I think the heads on "One of those brilliant close-ups" should be more rounded.

That head was so crap I just deleted it. Replaced with a much better one of course.

Can I see a new screenie? I think it's the model more than the texture, the head just wasn't rounded...
