Model request - Imperial/Senate Guard robes/helmet

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know if there are any existing robe/armor/helmet models of the red Imperial Guards, or the blue Senate Guards? and possibly of the weapons appropriate to each?

 

If not is there someone that could make said models for both K1 and TSL?

 

I also believe there is artwork somewhere depicting the red Imperial Guards in combat armor...

 

 

Thankz

Hey greggomonkey, thanks for the quick response.

 

That was the field armour I was after... that would be totally epic if you could model that (doesn't matter about the cape)

 

I would really like a model of the helmet to go with the armour, and also a robed armour model (for when they are on guard duty, not field ops) like this and this

 

With a repaint and slightly different helmet model they could also be used for senate guards http://www.starwars.com/img/vault/collecting/shopnews/20080716b/senate_guard_bg.jpg

 

But any models you can do would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your interest :)

I had a couple of thoughts if this helps greggo...

 

For the robed armor model, possibly a retex of the revan robes? I have seen a mod where the head part is removed, as well as the cape, but I'd want to keep that on if it animates ok. Basically cut off the head in the model, retex the chest part to look like cloth robe and recolor the whole thing red and a second one blue for senate guards.

 

For the red guard helm I thought it might be possible to use the default mando's head as a base (cut off from rest of model if that's possible), slight modification to the model and lightmaps, and recolor the texture file. I'm no good at texturing or modeling so I'm not too sure exactly what is possible. If you can do it that way it would also give a good base for senate guard helmet model.

 

What you think?

Hey greggo, thanks heaps for taking this one on. I'm looking forward to seeing the armor models/textures. If I can get someone to model the helmets would you be able to texture those as well?

 

I was wondering, is there any modelers in the community that you know that could do a full cloaked model?

 

I know that the cloaks would have to be animated, and from reading SS's thread on the Revan Robes reanimation it looks like a huge task. I would love to see this but I won't be heartbroken if no-one wants to take it on. I would do this myself but I have 3 problems:

 

1 - My computer sucks... no, really... it makes a calculator look like military grade hardware

 

2 - I couldn't make a 3d model if my life depended on it... I lack the requisite skills and artistic creativity, oh, and the patience :)

 

3 - As for 3d animations, see no 2.

 

I can however make the necessary changes to the 2da's, uti's and scripts to make these usable in-game. I thought some NPC's might look totally kick-ass redone as Red Guards :)

 

If there is someone that might be interested please PM me.

 

edit: N00b question... is it against forum rules to suggest discussing making it worth someone's time? Mods, feel free to snip this part if it's a no-no....

Hmm I love your suggestions but I have some issues.

 

1.Life is real busy and i have decided to lay off modding for a bit

 

2. I was cleaning up my comp a bit and ended up losing my progress for the red guard and some other stuff that was with it.

 

On the good side though I may just make the senate commando armour as of yet.
