<div class="IPBDescription">redoing piggorge's skin</div> Due to all the complaints about my original skin being too cartoony, I have begun to reskin piggorge into a more convincing pig, this means lighter pink skin tones, hair, etc... here he is

Make his belly a bit muddy then, we all know how pigs like to wallow in the mud. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

Desolation · January 2003

I still like my little modification to the original - the big round eyes are funny <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

but yeah, mud is a good idea, and perhaps some spots? <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

RoadMaster · January 2003

ooh good ideas all around. I hope I'll be able to make nice looking mud. And that pig statue thing is a nice reference... other than the punk look of course <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'>

Jim · January 2003

oh I thought of something else - maybe make the skin look like its got hair, because most pigs have hair don't they? <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'>

Desolation · January 2003

edit: all pigs have hair, just some not as much as others

floodmh · February 2003

This is the location of the old model... I won't link to the thread because people have a habit of reviving old threads when someone does that...

kyliegirl · February 2003

lol well i suggest you make the back legs a bit thicker, the back legs on it currently remind me of frog legs lol

Mart · February 2003

Cute pig... it should have the EC logo tattood into it's rear...

pardzh · February 2003

Er, does he have eyes? You can't see from that angle...

Wolf_Kahler · February 2003

Just because I'm so irritated with the whole farmyard conversion idea, how about an outhouse for the comm unit? Seems more farmy than the port-o-potty.

RoadMaster · February 2003

Duff: that screenshot has no eyes or snout, but the version I have on my computer right now does.... any why are you irritated with the idea Wolf? <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'>

Wolf_Kahler · February 2003

It's not something I have enough irritation over to say again. I got it out of my system already, in an other thread. I've got no inclination to flame y'all [no pun intended, actually...] for wanting this. It's fine. I just won't use any of it.

RoadMaster · February 2003

<img src='http://members.rogers.com/roadm/images/pigscreen3.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image'>
UPDATED PREVIEW IMAGE.... I still have to get the legs and hooves shaded, along with perhaps making more fur and making the fur stand out more...

RoadMaster · February 2003

even NEWER.... and I think I'm almost ready for a release
<img src='http://members.rogers.com/roadm/images/pigscreen4.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image'>

I'm still playing with contrast colour levels etc.... but it has most of the details like the fur and soforth...

RoadMaster · February 2003

Jim · February 2003

nice <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

DeathToll_David · February 2003

DUDE I tottaly want in on this!!!! I love Fun conversions - If you have ever played Global Warfare then you know me. I created the fun pack for it. What was that? Well.....

The nade launchers launcher chickens
The Stinger launched a Scientist with a cape
The General was givien the head of a camel
Replaced the APC's with an ICe Cream Truck

You get the idea.

I will TOTALLY make the resource tower to look like an out house :-)

DeathToll_David · February 2003

Bad news - you cant decompile the RT model. BAH!

Oh well - I will come up with some other ideas then --- EEEW like a Marine in a big straw hat... WHEEEEE

DeathToll_David · February 2003

hehehe I know this isnt my model but I LOOOVE doing this stuff.

I would NEVER release this model - I just wanted to show you what it would look like.

I gave it a tatoo of the hive and nose/ear ring. I could definetly give it a mohaw too. Roadmaster let me know if you care that I am doing this.

MaTT · February 2003

IMO the back legs are way to thin at the top!! Whilst the bottom of the legs are fine you should really thicken up the top of the legs as the picture below shows how thick they should be! Doing this would add a little more realism to the model and make the cute little guy look a bit fatter (as pigs should be!)

Ganja · February 2003

I liked your old pig :-P
and as a comment towards this one does the face not seem a little flat/droopy?

RoadMaster · February 2003

thanks for the feedback all

Deathtoll: no I don't mind you playing around with the model, just try to inform me if you ever think of releasing one of them <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'> Oh and I already am working with someone on this pack, I think it's Quad although it may be some other 4 letter name, I am so forgetful <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>. Anyway he is currently working on a scarecrow model for the fade I think.

Matt: Aye, the legs have been complained about a few times. For now they are staying as is, but I may change them when the whole farm set is completed, but I'll remember that problem with the legs for sure.

Ganja: I made the cheeks droopy on purpose, I liked the look. Makes him look more flabby. And if you want the old pig you can get it at <a href='http://members.rogers.com/roadm/images/piggorgold.zip' target='_blank'>http://members.rogers.com/roadm/images/piggorgold.zip</a> but I still like this new one more.

Surge · February 2003

I like it, but I it needs a bit more cuteness and pinkiness.

Wolf_Kahler · February 2003

Get the original.

RoadMaster · February 2003

I dunno why people like the original... the skin was terrible. This one is less pink but more realistic... nicer looking.

PsionicMage · February 2003

This just gives a whole new meaning to pig hunting.... added mud, bigger cuter eyes, and a target!

RoadMaster · February 2003

heh I like that mud. I knew I forgot something in my model. Oh well, I might add mud in for the farm pack later. Very nice reskin there <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

infallible · February 2003

Yeah... the pig should be fatter. It looks like a starved piggeh!
