I think Celeborn's hair shouldn't be white in the First Age.

I dont really know but did Galadriel ever fight? It doesnt seem like it, but then again I am not learned in all of LOTR lore. Either way good job!

[ElrondHighLord]

floriz, it is actually silver- w3d viewer etc, its the same colour as he has in wotr era
All she elves are trained in combat, and galadriel defended the teleri during the burning of the swan ships by feanor, and while she trained the lands of beleriand she would have had to defend herslef she could also have fought in the fall of doriath, the siege of sirion, and the war of wrath etc

Ok... here's something I've been wondering about for the past little while: is there any reason for the painful overbrightening on all of your skins?

I've been thinking, and there are two things that are possible.... one is that you're using default 3ds Max materials, which don't translate well to w3d and result in glowing angel-like figures in the game. Problem is that these are evidently w3d viewer screenshots, and that problem doesn't affect models in the viewer. The second possibility is that you don't know how to modify the lighting evironment in the viewer, which seems a bit more likely. Still odd because the defaults are a bit dark, not eye-shatteringly bright. If you don't know how to change the lighting, I'd be happy to give a quick explanation - it can result in much more presentable renders and is worth it if you're not sure how to rig in Max, or if you use RenX.

Most of the material i have made myself, and i havenot ever edited/used the lighting in w3d viewer, so maybe that is it

If you drop me a model/texture via PM or something, I can take a look at it for you if you like.
