Alright, I usually don't venture far out from the subforums of the mods I'm helping out. That's the only explanation I have for totally missing how wonderful this mod is.

Some time ago, I gave Ithron permission to use my art. A huge load of buttons from LA and BoG arrived, some with less quality than the other. He has put quite a bit of it ingame, so I guess there was some use for it. Anyway. I know RJ has some artists, but maybe my art could be useful here aswell.

I'm not sure if this giving permission to RJ really makes Ithron and Juissi happy (I made the art for their mods originally), but personally I think a great mod community comes in the first place, before great mods. The art I'm handing away is my own atleast, made by me and

This isn't a show-off thread, so I hid my art in a .rar-file. Anyone can download, though I'd prefer RJ to.
If you wonder what I mean by 'art', check the file. (Hint: It's INGAME art, like palantir images and buttons).

Download here


Enjoy!

Daniel

I don't really mind if RJ uses art you've made for BoG Cal

[Allathar]

The mod will be only better by using your art

[Caluadan]

link properly fixed

Great to hear your art is in this awesome mod!
Looks like all the great art minds of T3A have gathered around it
(I contributed some work yesterday too )


EDIT: Cal, I don't know what to say, these "from scratch" art really leave me wordless! You're the best!

[Caluadan]

so? I think anyone could use it, if they just ask me. this secrecy between mods is quite stupid tbh.

[Sûlherokhh]

Asking and providing credits is the least you can expect from anyone using your art. So, have you put a 'Caluadan'-sig somewhere on the pics?

[Devon]

yay!

nah...
I'd get bored even before I indulged myself in such acts of protection

[robnkarla]

What can I say.....THANK YOU!!!

Many amazing pieces in there and I am honored to be able to use them.

I've not been too big on mod secrecy and such, though I do understand it. I've been more about mods/modders working together myself.

Well, thank you again! It is more than appreciated.

Good

And most of it is actually never used, since neither WotE nor LA use much of the BoG art.

[IthronAiwendil]

You don't seem to have an idea about how much I've tried to use your BoG art Cal And I checked the artwork you had attached, and it nearly drove me insane because it was soooo wonderful Am I free to use all those buttons as well?

I don't like the idea of mods being "secret", sharing stuff with good mods is acceptable IMO.

BTW, are you planning to put together all the palantir portraits yu've made Cal?

[Elendil the High]

Personly, i always loved you art, and to see it in RJ-RotWK, just make this mod much better, then it already is.

ofc you can use it all.

and the portraits where in that file, where they not

[IthronAiwendil]

My mistake, the palantirs are in the files, and they're awesome (never seen some of them, e.g. Imrahil, Galadhrim and Celeborn)!!!

[JEV3]

I have no appeal for secrecy, but you said you wanted it to be a donation, and not a show-off... in which case you could have sent it via pm...

BTW, I think much of the 'secrecy between mods' thing is to keep uniqueness between mods... However a good mod should not have to hide good features and art to keep their mods unique in my humble opinion. Skins and models on the other hand, are what make so many mods unique, so those probably have a reasonable purpose for secrecy...
