Kyross Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 So this is a project I started a few years ago now, but due to my job and lack of inspiration progress took an almost complete halt. More recently I'm trying to MAKE time to finish this so I can move on to making a portfolio and go for my dream job, but the one thing I've never had a good handle on was texturing. I put a lot of work into these and I keep trying to go over them to make it better as such I want someone who is REALLY good with textures to give them as realistic a feel as possible. This is something I'd like to be able to showcase when done. Anyways, about the mod. It's based on the Uruk-Hai race mod made by The Bloke which also added a single raider on a mountain in a corner of the map with retextured armour, scimitar, shield, and a berserker helmet. So I had an idea much like the since-released Uruk-Hai Raiding Parties mod, only I wanted to give it a full army feel. I set about modelling all the equipment missing to complete the Fighting Uruk corps of Isengard-spear, sword, new armours, helmets, shields, as well as compiling related mods like the Ash bow and retexturing the playable race to also include black uruks. Many models are done up to the UV mapping phase except for a few wips but to save time here are only a few examples: The Cuirass still under work. There will be 2 variants-One without the armoured collar and flared spikes from the middle instead. All that's really left modelling wise is tattering the sleeves and the strap around the waist.http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v651/Banesk/cuirass1wip_zps0443384a.jpg The Warg still WIP intended both as a possible mount and enemy NPC. Still needs a mane and mouthwork, going to try and fix up musculature around the legs too.http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v651/Banesk/warg1wip_zps52e863f8.jpg A helmet for the Raider class. There are 5 other types of helmets made for the swordsman/pikemen/bowmen and a modified berserker helmet to match the Captains.http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v651/Banesk/rdrhlm1wip_zps38c5cf94.jpg I'm hoping getting this out there + a collaborator will really help keep me on track with this as working 6 days a week, it's easy to demotivate myself from sitting through something nobody knows exists.
