Naah, noone would kill you. At least I don't think so :p

The skin is ready for download, I posted a link and a new thread in the skinning forum, but since noone seems to look there I thought I post it here as well.

That's the thread, have a try.

I'm inclined to agree with Grafox about the hair... other than that, I think it looks great! The face looks really eerie/scary. Great job.

Hm, you could be right. I've made it on another computer, but now that I'm home again I see that my monitor has different color settings, not so dark, and yes, it IS too monochromatic.
I'll change that.

The file has to be named exactly like the .skin file, so in your case it's model_default_sith.surf
And you only have to add one line into the file:
surfOff "robe torso_robe"
This will remove the robe in the game for the sith obi.

I'm always open for critics, at least the skin has to be good.

I think now I got it. But since you are more experienced with this I would like to hear your opinion.
And if there is something not right you can tell me, even if it's the thousondth time. :)
I want to make this hair perfect. :p

His hair is supposed to be a dark dark blonde, if I remeber correctly. And instead of having light with dark highlights, try darker with lighter hightlights. Right now, he kinda looks like he belongs in a boy band.:)

yes, hair's too bright, reminds me of that on the TrueAnakin, only golder...and just for the record, despite what comics show, I really don't think Palpatine :lightning would be a blonde.

Ok, the hair is the most tricky part, and I'm not pleased with it until you are. ;)
So I'm still tweaking it, and I hope I will get some real not too yellow blonde hair.
Here's my next try, opinions please :)

Could be, but remember, that's just a clone with palpatines spirit. Maybe it isn't a clone of himself, or maybe the growing process changes his genetics or something.
I know it's just comics, but on every pic I saw his skin was bronze, not flesh color, so this could be the deal.

Well, it's impossible to darken just the parts under his chin, because of the model. If you make some parts dark you get some form like moons and triangles.
So I think I'm gonna keep it the way it is.
I redid the hairpart, not as shiny as you did, but I think it looks more realistic now.
I also added some shadow to forehead, so his hair looks more like the one on the picture.

http://home.t-online.de/home/0236859584/SWJK2/young_emp4.jpg)

And IMO it looks more like natural blonde now, not like mine before.

Aaah, yes, looking good now, very good. About the shadow on the forehead, make the edges more soft Then it's perfect.

That is much better shading than the origional. Just as a suggestion, since the hair line isn't exactly the same as the pictures, why not make the shadows on his forhead rounded to match with the hairline of the model. Even though the clone emperor had a widow's peak, it is kinda strange seeing someone with a widow's peak shadow, without the widow's peak. Just a suggestion that may look better.:)

Howdi all! I was wondering if I could please get permission to submit a reskin of the anakin included in the ep1_obi package? I tried to email Neomarz, but the email didn't get through. Sorry to all, if this reply is way off topic :)

What about an Obi-Wan Ep I Saber. I have one that looks picture perfect compared to the one in the movie however it's too big. I was wondering if I could get someone to redo the size that the original author did because this saber has some of the best graphics I've seen on a saber. So if anyone is interested please let me know. I'll check back here and I have two email addresses one is epicghost@yahoo.com and the other is jknox05@yahoo.com If you're interested I'll email the readme and the PK3 file. Thanks.

Is there anyway to get the surf files to work with SP. In other words, is there anyway to get the robeless version of Obiwan to work in SP?

Replace the ../models/players/etc part with nodraw.
It works for MP too.

Speaking of SP.. Does anyone know when the Obi-Wan release date is for the SP version? I hope it will be released as a robeless version. Obi-Wan rules.
