[NewErr]

[JUS_SAURON]

Thats AMAZING!!!

[Bereneth Túrien]

Holy CRAP! This is awesome! I can't believe I never noticeed this before. Any chance some of the earlier models in this thread could become available for use?

Extract from DURIN’S SONG /LotR Soundtrack: Disc 2 Track 12:

Durin ku bin-amrad ... Ugmal sullu addad.
Ku bakana ana aznân ... Undu abad.

Durin ku bin-amrad ... Uzbad Khazad-dûmul.
Ku baraka aznân ... Ala lukhudizu!

Ala ukratizu! ... Khazad-dûm!

Durin who is Deathless ... Eldest of all Fathers.
Who awoke to darkness ... Beneath the mountain.

Durin who is Deathless ... Lord of Khazad-dûm.
Who cleaved the Dark ... This is your light!

This is your glory! ... The Dwarrowdelf of Khazad-dûm!

(Text by Philippa Boyens, Khuzdûl Translation by David Salo)

 

That Dwarf has dignity, for sure. Beautiful model, Nertea. Especially the face ... those deep eyes ... like reflections of wisdom from years uncounted ...

(... on the different incarnations of Durin:)

Of these Durins the Dwarves reported that they retained memory of their former lives as Kings, as real, and yet as incomplete, as if they had been consecutive years of life in one person.

(note:)
Yet it is said that their memories were clearer and fuller of the far-off days.

... but I still wonder how the buckle of that belt is working.

It actually should work, take a look at the concept sketch a few pages ago. The textured result isn't awesome, I'll be the first to admit.

Any chance some of the earlier models in this thread could become available for use?

Anything that I'm willing to release has already been released, which is almost everything really. Gondor/Arnor soldiers are pointless to release. Langstrand is limited release to a couple of mods. Royal Guard/Durin are/will be in TDH. Supreme commander models are released... somewhere. Telmarines I gave to the Narnia mod, if anything ever happens with that.

[Spartan184]

Isn't the Narnia Mod dead?
And why not release the Gondor/Arnor soldiers? Some people might wanna use them.

[m@tt]

Because they are very high poly models which weren't designed for BFME.

[Nertea]

Despite what... mm, certain people might think, there is a balance between polygon count/texture resolution and the function of a model ingame. An Uruk-Hai, for example, does not require a 4k model with a couple of 1024s to be accurately represented. It's just a waste.

[JUS_SAURON]

This may not be applicable to post here but ....
Have you ever done a re-vamped Sauron ...
I would love to see your skill on the Dark lord of the Rings

[Dant]

I want to see Morgoth more than Sauron somehow.

[Neth]

Hell yes do I want to see a Sauron made by Nert. I hope he will do one

[Nertea]

Sauron would be a lot of pain for little gain. References are unclear, and I don't have a use for him. My next modelling project (after I finish off TDH) will probably be a bit of a break from LOTR.

For example, I have a few things from a series of old video games I want to model. Already did this one with this result, but I want to finish the other four: #1, #2, #3 and #4

[Lauri]

Go for it!

myself I'd like to dvelve into WWII stuff

[Nazgûl]

Yeah, done. I like parts of it, others not so much. Might improve it sometime, but it's such a minor part of the mod that it's not worth more than 20 hours or so of work.

A_M_A_Z_I_N_G!!!

[khamulrulz]

if you feel like doing more lord of the rings stuff, how about some men of rhun or harad? or perhaps dunlendings, or goblins of moria. or just about anything from the war of the ring time period.... i love your work and hope to see more

[Yarrum]

Durin looks great! Just curious, is there ever a possibility of you releasing the Golasgil Household Knights? You had said you were going to but never did...

[khamulrulz]

is there anything lotr you've been working on that you could post here? i really love your creations

[Nertea]

Anything I've done recently is in TDH, or will be pretty soon.
