Improved White and Metal Heavy Armour

The improved heavy armour includes a breastplate, a backplate for a very good protection. Also it includes a chain mail coif that protects the upper chest area.
Uses only ingame textures, it is meant to be used as an attachment.

(Attachment point= "chest")

!!INCLUDED METAL VERSION in Portrait!!

This model is part of the Knight's Armour attachment set.

Nice. The chainmail\leather bits have quite a bad wrap, I suggest you change it. Additionally, I think the normals have to be recalculated; They look weird on the screenshots. Finally, I'd like to see an image of one of Mr.Goblin's villagers dressed up in a complete set of that armor, just to see how it looks. ^^

I'ts a cool Attachment. Very cool. Awesome. I vote approval
I'm glad you liked, when my heavy armour models get approved I will upload a pack with all my attachments.

On those ME screenshots your white stuff look unshaded, but ingame they look better. Still i can't say, that i like them: they are good, but lack some wrap edits/ better texture..
Well the original idea was to create a white knight, but I will try to get a better texture to achieve the knight idea with a better aspect.
MMm for the coif textures (the chain mail) I don't see how affects ingame, if you could help me finding a replacement that looks as a actual chan-mail I will be thankful.

Normals are the side wich the faces are facing right??, I don´t see how to recalculate either in Milkshape nor in Magos :(...
But in Milkshape you can see that every single face is pointing outside the model, cause inside there are only the black faces.

Yes, it totaly looks like a white leather armor... Well try to use materials with two laers. Take a best quality armor texture with a teamcolor and use white.blp as a second texture. So you will get an armor texture, with white teamcolor. Hope you allready know about filtration types 'n shit. I guess it should help.

Thaks I will do my best to get the best look possible.

heheh I am still learning the basics of modeling so maybe I will take a time to do a second material layer.
Currently researching how to do team color, and also how to animate things from scratch. :wink:
