It's a skin hack/edit out of splinter's sleeves, changed the mesh around to make it more high res, the helmet from nixon's paras, and the gear's textures are from atthemilitia.com :[

They look like the 1st ID in Call Of Duty Finest Hour.

I don't know if I should take that as a compliment or an insult. :sheep:

Well they are really cool so...

Wow this looks crazy cool.

*update*:[ now with a 1943 (green?)/82nd Airborne version

:|

im calling for a Release Right Now!

look great, wb

That looks awesome, I concur on Andy's request of a release.

Lickable boots what!1

very nice. I'll be first in line to DL.

Keep working on them, they look good. I like the faces, A+ for effort.

As far as the uniform goes, you got some work to do. Needs much more detail and is way too clean at this point. BUT it looks real good, and I realize its a WIP.

And I dont know if its just me, but the helmet looks abnormally stretched vertically (too tall).

Keep er' going

Change the faces they look retarded/sad.

They look great.

are they old Jed's british heads?

Yup. Well spotted. I suggest you change them.

I like em, nice stuff mate

yea looks good so far, but i would suggest adding a little folds and creases in the uniform :)

Billie|Joe,

Just so its been said and so theres no misunderstanding, if you plan on releasing the models you'll have to find different head models/textures.

Their my original work an I've always stated both here, on my website and in the text files of my releas that:
- I don't give permission for them to be used in other projects or hackjobs.
- Regardsless of where you got the model/textures the rules still stand.
- Public release does not equal Pulbid Domain so don't assume you can use them.

Sorry to get pissy but I think its only fair to explain no before you get too far down the road with them.

Well Jed fixed that prob:confused:

heads do loko a bit funny on those textures imo. nice overall though

oh don't worry jed.. i never planned on releasing these anyways. I would have to get permission from dillinger and splinter as well

:kitty:

So why taunt us with cool looking models if you don't plan to release?

so you can awe at my first attempt :o

i should do that, taunt people with all of the stuff i finished and never released.... muahahahahha:dog:

Actually Billy, because of the ammount of people using my stuff without permission a while ago I released a "public domain" head model that was already UV Mapped and had a (rather goofy looking) template skin for people use use as a basis for their own.

Of course I cant find the original post, but i managed to dig out the original ZIP:

Your free to use it however you wish (just give me a nod in the credits if you'd be so kind) and I apologise the default skin looks like a David Beckham/Jesus lovechild - its meant as a placement guide for your own skins.

Haven't gotten around to adding wrinkles and creases or changing the heads... much because I lack the skinning knowledge and a digital camera :kitty:

they look really good

Looking good, only thing I would say is the lack of wrinkles and creases, but you've already mentioned that... will there be a release eventually?

Hey, Billie.. I made a face :S

Heres a peek:

Looks really good there, gelly. However the eyes (when rendered out) seem a tad too far apart

Thats called perspective, Lotus.

Reminds me of Lenin for some reason....

Looks great anyways.

O.T. Was the thread intended to be spelled "parapoopers"?

Very nice face gelly.

I hope these para's will be released, even if it was said that they wouldn't be.

Dont worry, everyone seems to think my Brtiish Sergeants look like Hitler. Makes you wonder what sort of people see the face of tyrannical world leaders in player models... :eek:

That said, why dont you ask Joe Pekar if you can use his face texture? He made a couple of textures for the heads uv mesh.

Actually those images are for an art book I'm putting together that I'm gonna be selling off my site soon (and at some comic conventions). lots more...um..fun... pics that won't be on my site :p

but, to get back on topic, yeah, I did do a texture map for Trp. Jed's model, if anyone wants it, just let me know. I'm too outta practice with everything to do it myself anymore.

^^ see, there are some nice people around. :Dhttp://www.dayofdefeat.net/forums/images/icons/icon14.gif
