  1. I notice that a lot of the "concept art" for the Egyptian units uses reconstructions by modern-day artists. Why not look at how the real ancient Egyptians depicted their own soldiers during the time period in question? Attached are authentic Egyptian images of their own soldiers. In contrast to some of the reconstructions posted earlier, these tend not to wear much protective armor; most of them simply have loincloths and cowhide shields. Also note their dark cocoa-brown skin colors.

    we dont mod the skin yet. only create shields and emblem. and we need, a doc civilization profile.
  2. I love that tower!!!

    I'm gonna make that one xD

    I'll continue to work on the walls I have now as well.

    The first one dates from 2700~ BC, so that's a really nice eyecandy thing anyway.

    The second one is from the walls around some Egyptian temple complex, not really meant to keep an army out, just thieves. So it would be great scenery as well, even if we don't use it.

    I think the Egyptian tower should have extra defence against non-siege weapons, because the door is really high and so the tower would have been really difficult to take over.

    And Assyrian and their Tanks ?

  3. They look great! Just one concern: the Ankh design looks a little weird to me with the hole in the shield... the Ankh was rarely used as an isolated symbol in Egyptian art. I would replace it with something a god (I know the Egyptian military named their battalions after gods like Ra or Ptah). 579.gifthat is Ptah

    and this is ra: 319.gif (I am learning Middle Egyptian)

    Other than that, Great Work!

    i Change it
  4. What do you guys think? Two walls for the Egyptians?

    Big strong wall and a small weaker wall.

    @Lion: Do you think you could make a desert block texture for the big wall and a plaster texture with playercolor triangles at the top border for the small wall?

    yeh but its more easy but that txture for faces.

    These videos should give you an idea about how to make UV maps and texture an object.

    If you've got any direct question I will gladly help you.

    Yeah now its for Learning :D

    You forgot to remove the white lines from the black/white shield texture.

    And could you make the ankh shield with playercolor?
