Custom assets

[Shadow44]

While creating a campaign in HD, I noticed a huge lack of decorative models. Looking at the SD asset collection that had been developed for years, the HD maps felt “empty.” Having absolutely no knowledge of 2D or 3D graphics, I decided to make as much as I could in the simplest way possible — so using RMS I made simple edits to models to cut something out or combine something with something else. This is how a fairly rich set of my assets was created, most of which I have used in this campaign.

For example, why not cut out that stack of wood from the sawmill and treat it as a separate decorative model.

Currently, not all of my edits are available on Hive, but most of the ones I was satisfied with have been uploaded.

My latest work is a combination of several fragments of models merged into one, creating a separate model — something like a kind of tent/combat building.

Thanks to these simple edits, my maps feel richer, and playing around with them in the editor is great fun

That combat tent is sick, love how you just frankensteined random model parts together and it actually works. More people should do this instead of leaving maps feeling empty

Haha, thanks! I really enjoy making these little abominations of mine I’ve still got a few ideas cooking that will soon end up in the HD models section. They’re not necessarily made specifically for my project — it just makes me happy when even one of my models turns out useful to someone. I was insanely proud when I saw one of my abominations show up in @InsaneMonster Re‑Reforged. I bow deeply to the real artists like @ShadiHD or @vindorei.

Here’s one of my latest creations that soon be uploaded — it’s already in my project
