Yep, I would if I could.

 

The limitation with KOTOR modding is making due with what the model and texture provide. That's why my philosophy is make the skin work with the model first, even if that means sacrificing some faithfullness to the source material...

 

As for an update, yesterday I completed the light, dark, and Kenobi "dueling" robes...

From one picture that I saw of Anakin in Ep3, the robe looked dark brown to me. In another one, the robe looked black. I thought that it was brown, but I guess depending on what pic you look at, with the different lightings you can't tell what color they are because they are so dark. I think yours looks really good Prime. I also think that you should make the gloves on Anakin so make it look different that the normal dark robes.

You are correct. I went back to some of my reference pictures and jacked up the brightness. It appears that most of Anakin's robe and cloak are dark brown. I've changed the Anakin robes to give it a slightly brown colour...

Here is an update of all the, for lack of a better term, dueling robes. I've tried to match the colours a bit more closely with their cloaked counterparts. Getting the movie character colours to look accurate is a pain since they are different shades in every picture. Anakin's is the worst for that. Anyway, I'm more or less satisfied with how they are now...

 

For the old Jedi armour robes I tried removing the thigh armour as well as adding a more normal waist area. I think the light pants don't look quite right, but I'm not sure if it would look ok if I made all the inner robe lighter as well. I'm still not convinced that this armour is going to work, but I'd be interested in opinions on the current form. Here it is.

 

I've played around some different Jedi armour concepts, and personally I find the Bandon model gives a bit more freedom. It still needs a lot of work, but here is a screenshot of the Jedi armour for that model. I still need to add more details and update the shader to include the new armour patches. Also, I'll probably play around with the details on the torso armour, and I might see what it looks like to when a Jedi belt is added...

Woah, very cool! The robes look fantastic Prime, especially the Skywalker one!:)

 

I like what you have done with the armor robes, though like Uchiha said I suggest making the pants a bit darker to match the robes themselves a bit more. Other than than, it looks pretty good to me! The Bandon model ones are pretty good too, though like you said it seems they have a long way to go before they correctly represent the armor robes. Keep up the good work!:thumbsup:

Did you take a look at the stills I linked to in my post Prime? I think that they might help a bit with the (old) armored robes. IMHO the coloring of Kenobi's Clone Wars 2 robes would probably work allot better. Let me know If you'd like any more screen caps.

 

I like what you've done with Bandon's model thus far. I'm very interested to see where you go with it. Keep us posted! *grins*

These robes look awesome Prime. I really can't wait till these are released. I hope that the boots for the Kenobi dueling robes are the same case as the regular robes, you made them red like they are in the movie but they didn't show up like that. Looking good!

Here is an updated screenshot of the first Jedi armour. I've made the colours the same as the original Jedi robe. To be honest I'm still pretty "meh" about it. If enough people want it I can include it, but personally I don't really think it is worth it...

 

Here is a screenshot of the second Jedi armour. I like this one much better than the first. Not a lot to it really, just a few extra armour patches, some colour changes, and some line alterations. I played around with a few more things like a Jedi-ish waist and belt but that don't work very well. I guess I feel that the more I add the less I like it, so to me that means it is pretty much done.

 

I took off the armour plates on the boots because the texture is streched so much it makes the plate on the top of the foot look a bit blurry. And just having the shin armour makes it look like he is wearing white socks from the front. :) But I don't know, is it better with the boots armour or without?

 

Finally, I decided to recolour the old basic clothing retexture I did a while back to look like Luke's Jedi robes from ROTJ. I figure I might as well include those in the character set. Not a perfect recreation, but hopefully they are reminiscent enough...

Actually, I think I like the white vest. It doesn't have to be perfect, it is, after all, a few thousand years before the robes your modeling them after. They should be slightly different, I think.

Perhaps making the belt white would tie it in with the stormtrooper gear a bit better, though. Thats all I can think of, at any rate.

Prime, those colors don't fit the Jedi Armour.

The ones that fit the chest one are brown and for the legs is either brown or black.

But it seems like you want that colors so it's really up to you.

Are you talking about Kenobi's?

I know. It was which one. :D

I don't think it looks good in white. The vest would look better in brown and the legs either black or brown.

So you are thinking of something more like this?

I'm agreeing with Maverick187 agreeing with ChAiNz.....

 

Now that I see it in light brown, I don't think I could see it any other colour!!!

Except the white belt, I would still like to see that. Other than that, no, can't think of anything eles. Nice!
