I've been without a computer for 3 months! I finally got one last week, so I decided to finish the vader model I started. Sorry this one's been taking so long guys. I've given the model to Sithlord-II so he can insert it into the game. Here are some updated pics for you. Also, unfortunately there are not going to be custom animations, I'd love to do it but as of right now its not possible :(
Feel free to post any feedback!

EDIT: added a bit more flair to the helmet and did some other tweaks.

Holy Shiznick, Very nice nls :D Great work on the textures
Your model is in good hands now nls, Sithlord-II taught me everything I know about rigging models. He's the best :D
Jesus son of a ***** that is absolutely amazing.
I am kissing ass but i dont care cos that is just incredible and so accurate.
What models(if any) do you have planned next?
thx guys! I also forgot to mention its 2488 polys.
keo: I don't have any planned yet, but any ideas are welcome.
Looks great nls. What models have you done before this one,if any? And I'd love to see some alien species as a jedi (not enough jedi models in jedi garb)
I would like to see a Geonosian warrior made.
Oh, yeah, your Vader model looks fantastic!!!:D
:drop2: Wow! Amazing! Cant wait till its done!
I don't have any planned yet, but any ideas are welcome.
Hmmm. Many models are in progress.... However, some of their releases are questionable. These are model's you may want to consider.
Ewok
Mace Windu
Obi-Wan Ep2
A Dooku, with more accurate features
A new, more accurate Luke Skywalker.....
Perhaps some Jedi Council members? Luminara Unduli etc....
Amazing. Simply amazing. As ZombieHendrix said, you should do an alien jedi.
mm.. when i saw this thread i said what? another vader model? what for? but now that i saw the pic all i can say is IT LOOKS GREAT and is worth the download

A little off topic, but as one of the co-authors of that model, what do you think was off on Dooku?
ZombieHendrix: I haven't really made much else at all. Just a female model for quake 3, and some other misc. 3d stuff. I took a 3ds max class in school so that helped a lot!

The head modeling mainly. It doesn't resemble Dooku as well as it could.
holy schmoly, that model and skin are superb! i had wondered where you had vanished to. :D as for a future project, may i suggest a new male mandalorian and/or a female mandalorian (reference (
http://starwars-rpg.net/swag/pics/43.jpg), only it should look more realistic)? i say both because both could use similar parts (helmet, jetpacks, etc.).
Wow, very, very impressive, and thats saying something because I'm rather hard to impress on such things. That model is really top notch, I can't wait for its release.
Sithcloak
looks great, need more detail on the helmet.
yes the helmet is somewhat jaggy. It looks much better when I subdivide it, but then the model hits 3000 polys :(
Looks great NLS. very nice textures, and great looking model. and Toonces is right, Sithlord-ii does wonders with models.
Have you thought of maybe doing any outside models, like not in the Star Wars Universe... With Midgit Yoda working on Cloud, and mushashi working on Sephiroth, I was wondering if you could do Sir Auron from FFX. Or maybe even a Kingdom of Hearts Sephiroth. Because mushashi is aiming for the FF7-looking Sephiroth, which is going to look awesome.

[Edit: to view the pics, you will need to copy and paste them into a new window.. RPGamer.Com is funny like Geocities.COM]
no offence sithlord...but this model is better...in my opinion
hell yea I'd love to see Auron in this game. You know what taunt I'd love to see? Him going "This, is for the fallen!"
Yeah man make a FFVII model, then we can put the three together and release them as a pack. Now that I've figured out how to sucessfully get a model in game (TOM SERVO IS IN GAME, HELL YEAH) I am putting all my effort into Cloud. Who wants to skin cloud? I need a good skinner. Kman? Hapslash? anyone? Just PM me. I'm restarting him today with a lowpoly version and less extensive hair.
can't wait till this come out. dat helmet thing ain't a big thing though. it really looks good. is this coming sometime this week?????
hmm I can't get those links to Sir Auron working, can you send me some more pics, maybe I'll work on him. Sounds like a lot of people are interested.
LBuRNa: I don't think it'll be finished for at least 2 weeks, unless Sithlord really concentrates on it :)
Wow thats amazing ........So who ya gonna release this too....and do ya have custom sounds n stuff....
great model..i'd like to see ingame comparisions of sithlords and this one..
Uber Sith: I'll probably submit it to polycount, I still have to make custom sounds, if anyone would like to help with that it'd be much appreciated. icq 10009158 or e-mail karrtoon@hotmail.com
Midget - if you get Cloud in-game send the meshes my way and I will do a skin for him. I have JUST the skin in mind ^_^.
NLS, maybe you should do a poll concerning your next model.
Talking about mandalorians ... will they ever repair the saber stances??
I doubt it Dark_One, Bloodriot isn't working on JO anymore. I could ask him if he wouldn't mind if I fixed it, but I won't have the time to do it in the immidiate future
holy.......... moly!! its so real looking i wouldn't be surprised if it jumped out of the screen!:drop2:
I cant say anything more than :eek:
i am gonna try to get to it ASAP however i am in the process of moving right now... i should be all settled within the week
sith-ii
Wowzers that Vader is hella sweet, great job nls.
But please do consider making a Mandalorian in the future, the community really needs a good one to use with the jetpack mod. :)
WOW! Great model nls :thumbs1:
WOW! Great model nls :thumbs1:
Edit: Damn! Sorry for the double post:( I thought it didn't send my post

yeah... and if he modelled female as well, that would make for one sweet model pack. :D
Cool!! Now i can have Vader protecting me in RGP games :D
And i hope it gets released soon! And the the cape needs to be lowered down a bit at the front i think :rolleyes:
Well...since you asked for suggestions on future models...I have a somewhat hard one...but he would look awesome in the game. If you ever played Onimusha 2 (recently rented and beat it:p ) then Gogandantess would be a great person to model. "My name is Gogandantess. Greatess swordsman of the demons." Or so he says....Jubei eventually woops him but Gogandantess is a badguy/goodguy sorta. He is a demon that you fight 3 times but he saves one of the characters and has a lot of honor...for a bad guy, but he is very arrogant.
Oh well to the point.....He has a sword that glows orange...guess from the fire he is always around. Be perfect for the orange saber :p!
Guess I'll just post a pic to show you how kewl he looks (
http://www.geocities.com/bleekage/rep.html?1033261124650)
I also put a pic of Nobunaga at the bottom of the page. He is the main badguy in the game....trying to conquer the world or something.
Of course to appreciate Gogandantess fully....play Onimusha 2 and see how kewl he is:D .
Thats a cool idea,
And nls have u got a webbie??? To show some pics?

What's wrong with the Mandalorians (the ones made by Absath and Bloodriot, I think) that have been out for a while now? I admit that there could be better models of them produced in the future - but why not put that energy into a model the community doesn't yet have?
-Anakin
I agree with bleek about Gogandontess, but he looks kind of funny. I'm a fan of Onimusha also but 1 question bleek, Why not Jubei? maybe in his Ogre mode. (he was the man)
Why not an actual Star Wars model?

Those Mandalorians are ok but they hold the saber incorrectly, i dunno about you but that keeps me from using that model at all.. can't stand it.
A modeler could always ask the creators for the mesh and all so that they could fix the weights on teh arms and hands... Ever consider that?
I suppose its worth a try but as far as i know they "moved on" from JK2. They are aware of the problem and have made no effort to correct it, which is downright silly because it should be a quick easy fix. Maybe Toonces or another modeler could try contacting them, but it wouldn't suprise me if they didn't have the original model anymore.
Still even if it was fixed it isn't very accurate, the skins are nice but the the shape of the body is all out of whack.. looks more like a comic book Mandalorian than one from the movies.
Its a shame they moved on from JK2. But I agree, the Mandalorian models to look out of proportion. the heads look way too big.
