Peligar? A nation of pelican worshippers?

 

Or do you mean Pelargir, the great port and capital of Lebennin?

 

And you definitely need to touch up the mapping on the shoulders.

(._.) Fixed. And will do.

The overall theme is cool, I think Rad also went with that look a couple of years back. But I have to say, it looks a bit random. Some things don't appear logical. For instance, there's the underlaying cloth, with a chainmail on top of that which is shorter, and then a vest of cloth which is shorter still. If the chainmail covered the whole tunic it would've been better, as a longer "skirt" below that would over-complicate manoeuvrability.

His arms are really fat until his elbows shrink them completely, but I guess you have a plan for that. And the chainmail part of the neck and below looks a bit too big.

 

Oh, and I don't like to hide symbols, like the White Tree of Gondor, behind things like a belt. So I would either design a new tunic or scratch it completely.

[Rider of Rohan]

@Lauri, I'll fix him up later you'll see. But I'll be removing the top shirt piece entirely. 
Also, I'm going to be continuously adding downloads to my Free Stuff page on the T3A page.

So far there are only two things to get, but I plan to add a lot later but still check it out X).

Interesting, I'd like to see where this goes

[Rider of Rohan]

Was bored ... did this for HD ROTWK - an ancient mod of mine I'm gonna try to re-boot :

The Horse Lords isn't forgotten, just on break,
Just thought this might interest some of you.
Now back to my Chem. Project.

In all honesty, the HD EA skins are not very impressive.

 

The render however, is well designed. I would rather see it with more... custom artwork though. Those skins are available to everyone, if they know where to look.

Well, I'm not going for a custom look for this mod,it's meant to be a EA art replication mod (like Maximan's Classic Edition is replicating the animations). And you have a point, the soldier and ranger are from the SDK, although I had to redo the coloring pattern to what EA put in the released units. The Shield was resized and redone. The archer was re-modeled with a new bow and quiver similar to the E3 stuff. I found a messed up skin that matched Faramir in the CAH section I believe, but it went through a serious clean up.

If anything they are close enough now :

I'm sorry Sir Maximan the Great, I was just trying to make the point of the replication of art (._.). It will never happen again.

[Lauri]

Yeah, no.. I won't be impressed until you show us something new.

[Rider of Rohan]

Why does no one like EA's originals, I like them.

Also since Lauri made me feel like I mod for nothing :

Disregarding the crappy Shield, is it an Improvement at all ?

[Lauri]

The chest is very nice. The rest of the armour still needs some work, especially the 'hip armour', it is way to close to one another.

 

Regarding EA's armour, the Ranger is okay. The Soldier does not look good at all, it doesn't even look like a man of Gondor. I'm only telling you this because if you want to make a HD mod, then do it properly. Especially if it's going to take time from The Horse Lords. But really, I'd recommend you make the HD stuff for THL. Just my suggestion, do with it as you please.

You're getting better with every update. Something to consider: the inside edges of the skirt-armor shouldn't be so 'blobby', they should be straight.

[Dúnedain76]

And the scabbard could use a remap. They still look really good though Rider!

[Rider of Rohan]

Thanks, but I really just prefer to keep it a re-skin and not a re-model XP.

[Lauri]

This sums it up.

[Rider of Rohan]

What, I just don't see a reason to fix one thing on a model. If I plan to re-do the model (again) I'll do it When I'm not multimodding.
