Hey there

I've begun a new axis player but I have a few issues so I'm going to show him a little bit before I normally do.

Here's a wip:



As you can see the head is the piece I've been working on the most. It's still not quite right but I started on the torso too anyway. The torso geometry is 50% but my biggest problem is ref material for the textures. For some strange reason I can't find any hi-res pics of german uniforms. Can anyone help me out here? I woulb be really grateful : ). I really would love som pics of the straps and the uniform jacket in general.

Anyway crits most welcome - but keep in mind this is wip so no silly posts like 'Aww his arms are missing' etc : )

Cheers

One question is this for source? if it is it wont work valve dosnt alow custom model players in source.But anyway keep working on it i like it. heres some pics of uniforms straps and alot of other hi res pics. (i would take the texures from another dods skin and try to make them fit on your models but you got to give them credit)

wow... lovemeister is back. Still remembering your work for the older versions of day of defeat. And this wip is already looking very good in itself. I truly hope source won't have a problem against a new model (can be done with weapons so...?).

I don't mean to complain, but his arms are missing :p

hehehe.... Seriously, nice to see the correct style collar, I would definitely find myself skinning this model. Only problem is DOD:S servers almost all run with model consistency on so nobody could use this as far as I know. Maybe I am wrong?

I know a mod thats almost ready for public release that is only being held back by the lack of a good German player model... ;)

Anyho, looks good, like you said the textures are lacking but beyond that excellent!

@DayofDfeat123
Thanks for the links. They had some really good images of grenades and stuff but the uniform pics were too low detail.

@FIGUUR
Heh yeah - Man those first models of mine... eep! ; ) Would be fun to compare this with the old stuff actually... I don't really know if there's any problems with custom playermodels but I surely don't hope so.

@Wile E Coyote
Wiseguy eh?! ; )
I'm happy about the collar and please let me know if I go way out of line with other stuff in the future. I'm trying to build a fairly correct German infantryman. By 'fairly' I mean 'As Good As It Gets' not 'Fascist Anal' correct so please keep that in mind when giving historical crits : ).

@Trp. Jed
I hereby donate this fella to MOD 'X' : ).
PS: You are pretty badass. I just checked out your site. You do games for a living? If not - would you like to?

@Ginger Lord
Thanks mate.


Cheers

actually it does, you just have to find one of the few servers that allow custom content like that.

If it is, why is it labelled to come out this summer heh? So if he donates the model to you guys, we could see the mod coming out =D?

The date reference is nothing to do with the mod and more with the events in the mod.

Oh! I look forward to it ^_^.

What mod?

From what I gather, a british mod, or a WWI mod, not really sure.tinfoil
