<div class="IPBDescription">Point me to your stuff</div> If you have made some original models for NS (i.e. new model replacements which are not versions of models for other games, modified versions of other people's models, etc.), can you post links to them here? I think they would make a great feature on readyroom.org, and would love to post them. I just want original models here remember, such as replacements for players, aliens, structures, weapons, etc, and not anything directly copied from a movie, other game, other mod, etc.
Thanks for any links you can give me.

Of course there could be loads more, that's just all I can think off right now..
oh he meant no conversions <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
I was thinking, I can't remember any <u>fully</u> original models, as in completely original concept to date D:
it's a HA reskin, since I don't know how to model... yet.
but I will learn and make more medieval stuff.
all original, and not ported, or based on anything.
monse, contact me, I wanna talk with you.
oh, btw...
remember the pic of the 3 ha?s and a skulk in the bathroom?
I made it, the translation is:
"hey romme (a friend) how do you open this?"
"with a welder, war (me)"
Anyone else have anything as well? There's like a bajillion posts in this forum and so far I have one original skin...

Well, blue2k, I just mean original models. There really haven't been (that I can see - hence this post) many models created by people for NS specifically. Basically, the models I see are conversions of other models, or they are taken from other games, movies, real-life, etc. I was hoping for some models (and by that I also mean skins - sorry skinners) that should... hmmm... involve more imagination. Like different looks for a skulk, from your own fertile brains. Or a new fade. Or something. I'm not asking for anything specific, I'm just hoping to see something besides a stream of retreads. As if you were in Squeal Like a Pig's shoes, or BathroomMonkey's, or Beaner, or any of the NS artists.
Architects, not draftsmen, is basically what I'm saying. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
one problem : lack of skill

you've got a new mod, a relitavly new community, and brand new team of people that love and follow every word you say... what else do you expect? i mean, we've got really talented HIG poly people liek sheena, really awsome all around people like Daphisto and Mercatorn, and they are being bogged down with everything... and close to everyone else (no effense) are n00bs...
in time, the amount of original content will grow... along with the average skill level of your community.
i started modeling a few months ago, and everyone's calling me good......mostly because i know what i know, and that's more than they do...to them i'm "good".... but the Dev's, mercatorn and Daphisto, and don't forget sheena, they are elite... some of the stuff they do makes me wet my pants.... it scares me how good their releases are...
your going to get alot of conversions since the modelers are new, and converting is easy.... once we as a community develop more skills, we will start creating new models...
sorry if that was random, but i'm kinda tired....
It's a shame that some people may be afraid to try building something from scratch because they don't consider themselves '"elite"' . . . everyone's got to start somewhere, and there is no better teacher than trying, screwing up, and fixing your mistakes.

Ahhh, BM summed it up a lot better than I could. That's the gyst of it - just looking for some more ways to get people interested in NS, while promoting this artistic community's labors. Rock on.
and like, 2 weeks later (a few days ago) i think i sent you an e-mail about making a section of rr.org for models... soemthing like my site, but on a well known NS website... something a little more official (and a little less costly than what i'm doing now)
but whatever... i'm working on an original model... based on concept art drawn specifically for NS....
*tears in eyes* that's my story <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
Oh well here's the link <a href='http://members.rogers.com/roadm/images/piggorg.zip' target='_blank'>PIG GORGE V1</a>
NOTE: When the farm pack is made and released (who knows when that will be) I will probably change piggorge and pack all the animals together... so there may be an update for this in the future.

Why that's the third monacle this week! I simply MUST stop being so horrified!
I've thought about original stuff, but all these years of gaming have rendered my creative ability to...uh, not being able to come up with a whitty quip.
