Request for a suit of Armor (Images provided)

[TheLastIstari]

Hello.

 

Recently, I managed to get a hold of The Force Unleashed: Ultimate Sith Edition. I immediately fell in love with the Dark Lord's armor. And that's why I'm here!

 

The Dark Lord's armor is the upgraded version of the Sith Stalker suit that Starkiller is forced into should you choose the Dark Side ending of the game.

 

To be honest, I sort of feel this is one of the few pieces of Star Wars clothing/armor that doesn't clash enormously with the Fantasy setting, and seems to blend in rather well if you ask me. In fact, I believe it'd be perfect for an Assassin character, or even an evil character (or Anti-Hero) in general. I am aware and understanding that this will not be done quickly (should it be accepted), and am a patient man, who does indeed understand the phrase "It's done when it's done", so I wouldn't worry about being pestered by me if I were you. :thumbsup:

 

I am also aware that to even have the slightest chance, pictures must be provided, I'll take care of that now.

I do hope there is some interest in one of the many modders taking this up, as I do feel it'd fit in rather nicely.

 

And just to help save some confusion, should it exist, the cloth that protrudes from his waist is divided into four pieces. No, I do not want them rigged and animated. Though that would be nice, I know there are limits!

 

So, please feel free to drop a post if interested.

 

EDIT: Ah... seems the images stretch the page, they have been converted to normal urls, apologies for stretching the page. :sweat:

It has been three days, so I would assume it is alright to bump. If not, please feel free to rate me a dumbass. xD

Seems like bumping is frowned on here, since my own bump got post deleted (I think), but hopefully you get better luck than I do. We need more non-skimpy/"sexy" armors.

[TheLastIstari]

Oh, I see. Well then, I'll just save my post as a just in case. :thumbsup:

Yes, bumping is frowned upon here http://thenexusforums.com/public/style_emoticons/Dark/tongue.gif

 

Anyway, looking at the armour, here's my outlook on it.

 

Body looks like it wouldn't be to difficult, more trouble for a texturer than a modeller, pretty easy looking the body.

 

The belt, is once again, a texturers job, and it looks easy enough. All though a modeller could sort of model the buttons on, and it would like better.

 

Legs seem very similar to the torso, quite easy.

 

Boots, easy. Really easy. A black re-texture of leather boots could handle that.

 

The helmet. It looks quite difficult. Masks have never been easy(I think) and while the upper layer of the helmet could be edited from an iron helm for a good base, the mask would probably be quite tricky.

 

Anyway, what I'm basically saying is, unlike most armour requests here, it might be possible, I wish you good luck in finding a modder.

[TheLastIstari]

Ah, I see, I'll try and refrain from it then.

 

The torso though, there's something that already resembles his torso. The Dark Seducer's male armor, reduce the EXTREME MUSCLE POWER of the torso and recolor it (along with modeling the shoulder pads onto it), and you're more or less got a carbon copy.

 

The hands could be tweaked leather gauntlets (Claws and all, and less bulky hands), or you could forego the claws themselves (not required, but I do like it nonetheless)

 

The Mask itself could likely be edited from a steel helmet.

 

xD So yeah, a lot of the pieces are vanilla already, they just need tweaking.

[Slawter500]

I can do basic re-textures. So I could probably handle the boots, but similar works are probably around anyway. I might be able to handle the legs, and torso, but I doubt it. If no one else tries this, then I will have a go, but there's no way I can manage the helmet.

[TheLastIstari]

Danke, Slawter~ I did edit in some possible similarities if it helps. And well, I can live without the helmet. My biggest worry was honestly getting the cloth done more than anything. :thumbsup:

So the texturers and modelers on this forum generally pick the stuff that's easy? *censored*.

What do you expect? It's not like they're actually being paid to do this. You need to get rid of your attitude of entitlement. The modellers don't work for you.
