Silgrad Tower from the Ashes

I totally agree with you on the rattan, gonna clean it up, maybe even redo it, now that I have everything I need prepared. Shouldn't take too long.
Also, have a better process to give the normal map more(detail, control over height) punch. (In a couple different actions, so I just punch a button and the process is applied)

Arrows: I'm really not sure how this works. How is the arrowhead positioning on the quiver is related to the positioning on the actual arrow. I think thats why the laquered arrows are crashing the game when I draw an arrow. I dont know, I'm drawing at straws right now. I'm using this arrowhead for the arrows shown in the pics, but they're Inverted (tuning fork) I really dont understand it %^&*(

Inverted? The arrow in your pictures look how they are suppost to be.
Check out the arrow on the right of the picture below.


EDIT: The arrowhead on this picture is correct: LINK

Alright, I made a closer look at the quiver meshes, thats where my problem lies. I'm using the wrong arrowhead textures on the wrong meshes.

Redid the Shigeto. Got gold leaf tips and a gold pattern between the rattan wrap. See pics:




Does it look somewhat washed out to you? I doubled the size of the texture, 1024x1024 to try to bring out the details more, but need another opinion and any tips appreciated.

I hope that solves the problems.

The rattan looks good :goodjob: It looks like it's not just the tips that's gold leaf, i think the bows textures are made in sections.

I hate imageshack, often it takes forever to load a picture X(

I do too but wont know until i get back to it. I'm stuck on Shigeto perfection.

I wanted the gold pattern pretty much like it is, but needs more rattan/gold alternation...or just gold on the tips. Is that what you mean by "bows textures are made in sections"?

EDIT by Kodama: I fixed the broken quotes.

Yes, that's it... it might be impossible to get the gold leaf just on the tips of the bow.

**Second to last one is Corthian's texture
I might need to resave them as dx3 and change the normals to tone down them down. let me know what you think.
Gonna get Men's kimonos in the plugin next

:pop: Oh my....

Looks INCREDIBLE! :worship:

Those have to be some of the best retex i've seen in a while. Looks awesome! :goodjob:

:applause: :applause::applause::applause::applause::applause::applause::applause:

Those first two screenshots are great!

The retextures look great, you won't hear any complaints from me :goodjob:

How did the gold leaf textures of the shigeto yumi work out?
