Mythos_Ruler Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 (edited) Included here a few shield designs we are using in the game. They are in Photoshop (.PSD) format and include about a dozen layers each. I am releasing them because I want to see what you, the community, can do with them. That's right! I want to see what kind of cool shield designs you can do with the files I am releasing to you.Particularly FirePowa8, I'd like to see if you could make a full size Spartan Royal Sunray shield design utilizing these files. If you guys would rather have Paint Shop Pro files, just let me know. Lambda shield 1: http://www.wildfiregames.com/~art/public/Spartan-Shield.psdLambda shield 2: http://www.wildfiregames.com/~art/public/h...tan_sheilds.psdGorgon shield: http://www.wildfiregames.com/~art/public/sh_g04.psdTrident shield: http://www.wildfiregames.com/~art/public/sh_g16.psdSeagull shield: http://www.wildfiregames.com/~art/public/sh_g10.psdPinwheel shield: http://www.wildfiregames.com/~art/public/sh_g09.psdWhat I'd do is edit the design layers of the images and dont touch the base layers and mask layers unless you're confident in your photoshop skillz. Take this as your chance to shine and show off your work to the community. We might also use the best designs in the final game if they fit the style of the art!If you post a link to your finished PSD here or send it to me over MSN Messenger (MSN: mythgamer@aol.com), I'll player colorize it, convert it to the proper texture format, and plug it into the game and screenshot it for you.Have fun! And don't hesitate to ask questions here. Edited August 16, 2006 by Mythos_Ruler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aztec_Brave Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 Finally a chance for the community to show what we are capable of. Well, either that or WFG have decided they can't really be bothered doing shields. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonidas I Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 (edited) is this any good? its suposed to be a mora designi did it in photo shop but couldnt get the URL for it, plus i dont know how to get those edges smoother lol Edited August 16, 2006 by Leonidas I Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonidas I Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 (edited) this is what it looks like in-game....shield_Morawhat do you guys think? Edited August 16, 2006 by Leonidas I Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mythos_Ruler Posted August 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 It's a nice shield. The left horseman seems a bit too washed out, but that's probably from where you sourced the design from. I do not believe it's a Spartan Mora design, per this thread here: http://www.romanarmy.com/rat/viewtopic.php...er=asc&start=40Stefanos in that thread is a veritable Greek shield expert from Greece.Finally a chance for the community to show what we are capable of. Well, either that or WFG have decided they can't really be bothered doing shields.lol... We already have close to 80 shield designs in the game for the various cultures. I just want to see what you guys can come up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonidas I Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 It's a nice shield. The left horseman seems a bit too washed out, but that's probably from where you sourced the design from. i made it lighter to match the bright side of the shield. here is the darker one then...

egel Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 I'm away for four days; Thanks to you I know have something to occupy myself with, so hopefully something nice when I'm back.(The joys of laptops .) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FirePowa8 Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 I'm rebalancing a solar shield design. Not sure how good it'll turn out. If it doesn't balance correctly, you may have to use the 64x64 shield (avatar) instead (I can bronze it up a bit ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egel Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 Hey Mythos, sorry, but I can't upload anything right now (cough *modem issues* cough), I'm having to surf on another PC, my disc drive died and so did my laptop battery. I don't mean to moan or anything, but currently, I have no way of getting you my shield images that I was messing with, and I'm about to sit 7 exams, so I won't be fixing anything for a couple of weeks, along with finishing my Celtic civ design for Age of Antiquity. Till then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martin Posted September 24, 2006 Report Share Posted September 24, 2006 here's my first attempt, just some colour rebalancing of one of them and moving stuff around etc. I'm going to do a real one later: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeros Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 Bump! Anyone who adds a new shield will recieve a personal message from me with some interesting details on WFG and Modder relations, which could potentially lead to a chance to participate in a special program to assist 0 A.D. in being more mod friendly.

MrChocolateBear Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 I'm sure someone has already though of this, but just in case I decided to do it anyways. This is the extent of my artistic abilities. lol. PSD can be found here. I'm sure someone can make it look better, so do to it what you must!

MythicRuler Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Here is my attempt. Its a sun shield but something about it didn't turn out right and I didn't know what to do...but here it is anyway! I feel like the colors aren't matched quite right. Any thoughts on it? I made it in only 5 minutes or so lol so be as harsh as you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
