Skins for Redfox/Zarax

[Maraxus]

Redfox, How do these colors look, the barbarian pants are just the vanilla merc barb pants, do you want darker or lighter? I'm not sure exactly what colors to match them too. If you want to post two color blocks I can go off those.

Really like the look of the second screenie, excellent work on that Sir!

[RedFox]

Well, lighter green, yes, but with dark brownish edges (like gauls have this orangeish colouring). So, maybe tweak the light green and change the darker parts even more darker. The base colour for them is light green and secondary, the border colour is brown or dark green. It would definitely work that way.
The reason for this is that Epirus, also has a green army, but it needs to have different colours to distinguish from the barbarians. A little bit darker than the current GCS rebels you made.
So, basically, forest green, with white or light green bordering.
The Independent Greeks, could be a little bit darker brown, but the dark and brown mix seems great, as Dacians have white/brown.

Redfox: I typed those colors you posted into photoshop, Heres a Averni next to a vanilla Gaul. How does it look?

[RedFox]

Well, I think the brown could be a tiny bit darker, but the colours look fabulous so far

*drools* Different color stains will look good on my Legionaries Gladius'

Some greek units have +5 defense post-marius, so I doubt.

[Hippias]

Averni? Dacians?...did i miss an announcement somewhere or are there some major faction changes coming up in the next release.

[RedFox]

Probably not in Dime's version of XGM.
I have been working on another version of XGM, with a few graphical improvements, plus a more historical approach and a bit meaner money system (armies drain denarii so bad...).
Not to mention a bit more difficult construction.

[Hippias]

Dang - raised my hopes there for a while.

Back to the roundhouse to play with my collection of severed heads then...

Hehe, don't kid yourself, a well balanced Roman Legion is almost unstoppable in the right hands. After several world conquering campaigns, I think I can safely say, the blood of the known world will flow on my Legion's Gladius'

Or if I'm playing the GCS, its the same thing, except its a spear

[Maraxus]

Redfox, I finished the Averni and I emailed them to you. Luckily I had nothing much to do tonight and I was able to sit down and focus. It didn't take as long as i fear it would, the Greek skins are much more tedious compared to Barbs.

[RedFox]

Just had a quick look at them and they look perfect, though I think you forgot the strat map textures... diplomats and such.
Other than that, great job, I'll add them as soon as I can.

[Maraxus]

opps, I can get those to you next week Monday or Tuesday night, I never any time over the weekend for XGM.

[RedFox]

I'm going to try and finish the Arverni textures myself this evening, though if you can make them better, then please, i would be glad to get those textures
I really hope you have the IGCS textures done soon though...

[Maraxus]

That was my first time doing barbs, I can send you my unflattened photoshop files if you just want to tweak things. I'll work on the IGCS tonight, ill get a better idea of how long it will take after tonight.

[RedFox]

Well, you can send them right over..

[Maraxus]

bad news, I don't think i saved the base file that has all the different levels for the warband's pants. I have the files for the druids and heavier infantry. Do you still want them?

[RedFox]

Well, I kinda finished them already and I figured out a new secondary colour, though it looks kinda similar still with the unit textures...

[RedFox]

So, when will the Greek textures be ready? I'm slowly nearing completion of the mod... though I still need to finish governments and cultural barracks.
