Well, i am sick of seeing soldier run around dod atm, so i decided to crank up a half man half rat creature. I will be doing both allied and axis uniforms, and shall be adding afew little static objects for the rat around the belt.

This is like totally all my own work, it took 2 days to model and unwrap, and i just need to rig it to a valve biped (which i need to find more info about) and texture it, and export.

Anyway, comments welcome, i think the poly count is something like 4000, so enjoy...

P.S Those images are not the latest, the mesh formation has changed abit since. Reduced poly's etc.

I'm very sorry to say that DoD:S doesn't allow custom player models, only player reskins. Such a shame tho, those models look amazing. :(

Well thats a kick in the teeth isnt it...

What ever happned to good old custom model communities which thrived on creative talent afew years ago in DOD and CS. They added to the longetivity of the gameplay in my opinion.

lol Nicely done mate.

I take it you're gonna be using transparencies for the whiskers/back hair?

Yeh transparencies for the whiskers and main.

I started a new character today, a human actually. Gonna see how far i can push the detail with minimal poly's. Tomorrow i will finish the model, and hopefully by friday, have it unwrapped.

Ill texture Ratman over the weekend, and maybe rig it. I wouldnt mind learning how to use skin, as physique is apparentley old... but i like it.

Cool, well please be sure to post what you come up with. We don't get enough custom modellers on this place for my liking :)

I know, I'd like to see some models with winter coats and all for kalt and other snow maps that they plan to release hopefully in the future.

BTW - that looks AMAZING.
