In the later one by Sitlord he looks like a rotten lemon (Sorry man, but I feel like I have to be critical if instead of advancing you take a step backwards...). The rest are good skins in general, but they don't resemble Palpatine... I'm sorry I'm so harsh, but that's the way my critique goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Stryke Posted August 10, 2002 Share Posted August 10, 2002 Very cool model, I hope he is released soon. And just curious, if you can tell me, what texture editor(s) did you use? Stryke WIP's: Kit Fisto's Lightsaber (80%) Plo Koon's Lightsaber (20%) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottb Posted August 10, 2002 Share Posted August 10, 2002 Great model, & great skins. Man I am really looking forward to the release of these fine works of art. Great job everybody envolved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forums_End Posted August 10, 2002 Share Posted August 10, 2002 Peret that one definately looks just like him its perfect. Well just about. The eyes need to have a little whitish yellow color on the outside so he looks like he has pupils but other than that its perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
§ith Lord Posted August 11, 2002 Share Posted August 11, 2002 Forums end, I made that skin...just wanted to clear that up in case you haven't been reading. Kn1ves - I don't consider it a step back. my olds ones were too smooth and cartoony, the only problem with that pic was the skin was too green and the eyes too yellow, an easy fix to say the least. I appreciate your CC expect updates soon guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth-Nasty Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 Originally posted by Toonces http://www.drivingcatstudios.com/3palps.jpg After looking at this picture for a long time i cannot make any descision which face is best. However i would say that the robe from the middle one is the best:) How come three of you are working on the emporer skin? shouldnt one be working on a young sidious one? Great work so far:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t3rr0r Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 Originally posted by Darth-Nasty shouldnt one be working on a young sidious one? i've been wondering what happened to sidious, since the last shot i remember was the michael jackson looking one (which was a while ago).

Kit Fisto Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 I have to agree, out of the three robes the middle one looks the best. As for the faces, they are all cool looking, but the closest resemblance to the emperor goes to the one on the left, though even that needs some work on the mouth (FROWN DONT SMIRK!)

Darth-Nasty Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 how about making a darth sidious lightsaber for inclusion with the model? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonces Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 Suposidly one of his clones from the EU had a saber. I could try and model it, but it's pretty non distinct looking, and since he never used one in the movies I dont know if I'll do it. I was thinking of modeling his cane though, I could do a cane saber I've been working on Kit alot so I might not get that finished. I have been working on my Sidious skin, I should post a few shots for you guys to take a look at. He looks a little bit like Palpatine, but I'm not happy with it yet. Arco is doing a Young Palpatine skin. I havent seen it yet so I dont know where he's going with it. We're close, the sounds are now finished (except for maby one, nomad might change one of the 12 taunts) and I think the weights on the model are now final. He's looking great in game, we're just finishing up the skins. This project has been a long long time in the making. This has been a great learning experence for me, and have immensely enjoyed working with this great team. I hope you guys all like him as much as we did working on this project. I still cant set a timetable for release, other than saying soon Oh, before I forget, §ith Lord, let me know if you received thoes textures I sent you. It seems every message I sent out recently has been bounced back at me Toonces http://www.drivingcatstudios.com Powered by Sith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keo718 Posted August 14, 2002 Share Posted August 14, 2002 I really await this model. Has Sith Lord updated the face, and have you been able to fix the transparent hood problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toonces Posted August 14, 2002 Share Posted August 14, 2002 I finally came up with a shader that actually worked so you cannot see through the hood anymore Still skining away Toonces http://www.drivingcatstudios.com Powered by Sith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

§ith Lord Posted August 15, 2002 Share Posted August 15, 2002 Hey Guys, I just sent Toonces my new textures, expect screenies soon. t3rr0r - That micheal Jackson skin was the start of my palpatine skin, not sidious. as you can see Ive greatly improved upon it (in my opinion) It'll be done soon guys, just hang in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keo718 Posted August 15, 2002 Share Posted August 15, 2002 I was thinking of modeling his cane though, I could do a cane saber That would be nice, especially if you could work out a reverse grip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth-Nasty Posted August 15, 2002 Share Posted August 15, 2002 reverse grip could be done by just moving the tag which tells the game where to hold the saber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striderx2048 Posted August 15, 2002 Share Posted August 15, 2002 reversing the grip? isnt that going to mess up the special moves? hell its going to mess up everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonces Posted August 16, 2002 Share Posted August 16, 2002 That's not quite what I meant, I was thinking about makeing a hilt that resembled his cane. I probly wont do that, I dont want to delay his release any longer than I have to Here's the update from Sithlord, notice the cool little icon he made http://www.drivingcatstudios.com/sithnew.jpg Toonces http://www.drivingcatstudios.com Powered by Sith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keo718 Posted August 16, 2002 Share Posted August 16, 2002 Looks good. It would look better if the inside of the hood were darker as in the icon. edit: That's not quite what I meant, I was thinking about makeing a hilt that resembled his cane. I understood what you meant. Reversal of the grip probably wouldn't be necessary but you could move the grip to the center as in quamosity's force pike rendition. I probly wont do that, I dont want to delay his release any longer than I have to Understandable. I'm just saying this in case you plan to make it in the future.

SithMaster01 Posted August 16, 2002 Share Posted August 16, 2002 That truly has to be the best Palpatine model I have ever laid eyes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keo718 Posted August 16, 2002 Share Posted August 16, 2002 My last comment on the skin, Sith Lord you might want to make it a little more white as opposed to gray. If you did, in your latest adjustments never mind. The pic is too far away to tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
