By the one and only CAPO!

I'm in the process of making a sheild and some helmets and weapons for it.

You like?
 
hum... sorry but,
untill the black font, and don't see any "hospitaler" theme.. Oô

White cross on red ecu is the "Savoie" theme, so.
(an independant french region)

It's a bit off of the actual templar theme, hense it is a theme and not a reproduction.

The sheild I used is, AFAIK, the modern emblem of the knights hospitaller. If it's not, well, it still looks pretty good IMHO.

EDIT: And I know about Savoy, the old Italian state that sold you guys half it's land after your aid in the Franco-Austrian war (that was fought in Italy).
 
I think it looks good BUT I like a more simple/plain cross.
Overdoing the detail sometimes takes away from the effect/mood, I thiink.

Good suggestion.

I tried to handdraw the Cross of Jerusalem (and then use the emblem on a sheild), but I'm a horrid artist when it comes to hand-drawn artwork.

I'll keep you guys updated.
 
For having grow up in Savoie,
I m really "Surprised" seeing this choice by modern hospitalier order.


But about the render him-self,
his quality his nice, yes.
Untill a "shift", it sounds to me too much like Renaissance design,
too "complex".
More "gross" sign would be better in my mind.

p.s.
Grant me a little "pride pick"... :eek:)
Savoy had a most keeping his autonomie,
under Piemond, as under French, or other reign...since a lot of centuries

Perhaps I am wrong.

Either way, it's a WIP.
 
Capo do not take my comment as a negative, I like the way it looks. I just sometimes state my personal preference.
 
Ok here's another version. Lets call this version B. Which do you guys like better? I, personally, like the first one, BUT, if the community perfers this one, this is the one that shall be released!

My main problem with the 2nd one is that the edges of the cross are VERY rough.

I'll work on a sheild next. :twisted:
 
Sheild. Cross is hand done, and it's a bit messy, but I think it looks alright. Th e wood texture I put over it doesn't quite show up, and you can tell where I missed a tiny part, but it should look fine for now.

i would likeit better in red or white but it is very good!
I tried the cross in white, looked HORRIBLE. If you mean the color, well, I chose black because it's not done often :razz:
 
*yawn* I'm a bit tired (it's 1:33 AM here), I'll work on a helmet and a sword tommorow.

That'll be part one of my skinpack :grin:

After this, maybe I'll do a Templar with the linin tunic or a Teutonic perhaps? Hard descisions these are.

Maybe later I'll make some golden horde style armors if I can, for the Khergit and Nomad armors.

Thanks for the help and ideas, guys.

Caps, singing out for a few hours :twisted:
 
Capo, would it be possible to replace the lower-tier armors instead? I mean, who ever uses a ragged shirt? That way, you could keep the old good armors everyone likes, and introduce new armors.


As to your request about me telling you how to code the new arenas in, I don't know :oops:, BUT I'm almost positive Janus made a second arena for his arena enhancement mod. You might like to PM him about it. (If he hasn't posted by the time I hop back on here tomorrow, I'll send him a PM about it.)
