apprentice prop modeler looking to join a mod project

[buggy123]

high everyone! After being away for nearly half a year I suddenly remembered this game and checked it out again

So let's cut to the chase. I'm a amateur modeler looking to brush up on my skill and keep me focused on 3D stuff. (school and stuff kept me kinda busy but I need to have this extracurricular skill) So I'm deciding to start modeling for a mod so you know, I will be more motivated.

So if anyone is looking for a extra guy to help them (I can also do some scripting, C++, and stuff like that) with their mod, feel free to post

is there a way to make spoiler tags? don't want to make people lag when they load this page

You might consider joining my project, nicknamed Pyrogenesis: Empire. Look here. (last two pages for updated factions and ages) It is basically about making 0 A.D. into a game similar to Empire Earth, stretching from the first settling humans up into our days, but retaining an historical authentic feeling. It is in planning phase still, but I think artistic stuff could already be started.

I have to warn you, though, you'll not be a "extra guy", you'll be more of the second one working on this mod and the first one with 3D or programming knowledge. I have only desinging and some very basic 2D skills. If you don't want to be the only 3D-Artist on a mod, then you should probably look for another, though I would be very glad if you did join me.

Do you have screenshots of some of your work? Also, are you capable of texturing? I assume there would be more need for that right now than for 3D-modelling.

just added some of my works.

Also hi SMST! I looked at your project and must say the scale of it is very impressive. As for texturing I can edit them, but I'm not great at making them from scratch (not much photo shop experience)

I was wondering when somebody who could model would show up! Your models look pretty great, espcially the guns. I was wondering if maybe you wouldn't mind trying to make a falx model for a Thracian mod I am planning/making? Basically a falx is a very curved sword. Here are some images:

To give an idea of size

Anyways, it's really cool that we now have a modeler. Hopefully you will be able to help create some great mods for this game.

Looks good, I especially like that agama (or whatever this reptile is called)

Yeah, I know, it is kind of a mammoth project. I am not planning to do this at once, rather making it step for step. If you want, we can discuss this further in the thread of the mod.
