Any Extra Race Pictures?
 

I'm working on a Shipset right now, and Almost done on the Image part, and all I need is Explosion, Shields, Race Portraits and The Main Race Pic.

I have absolutely no idea how to make those, and before I try to draw the wheel, Does anybody know if they have extra ones of these or a depository where these things can be picked up?

Most of us used the existing shield bmps' for our races.

Yes, I usually take some standard SE shields.bmp file and adjust hue and palitra to hide my plagiarism http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Race_portrait is another issue of course. When you start making new race, you DO have some kind of image how they look like, right ?
Try to search google.com for images assosiated with your race concept. When it fails, resize N. Portmann photo to 128x128 and upload your race here.

A long time ago when I still actually had a website I had a bunch of extra shield files uploaded, if you want them E-mail me and I'll send them to you.

Terran, I'do be happy to do a race pic for you. It will be hand-pixelled rather than 3D rendered, but that might be better for a race pic.

Take a look at the vikings and valkyries (website link below) to see what sort of thing I can do.

Zeroadunn: actually I think the copied off Praetorian shiled pic is good enough for me http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Dogscoff: I really don't like that UN placeholder thing, but it does it job, just send the pic to me in my Email please if you want to.

Well, a racial portrait? What race? Terrans i guess?
If so, all i have is images from StarSiege. Though not any original, they look just great. I already saw three people using images from there.
Another way is to recall all the games you've ever played that had TERRANS in them. I did so with my TechnoLogic and used altered image of a HUMAN from Deadlock 2.

If it is not terran though, i might help you by drawing the picture.

Re: Any Extra Race Pictures?
 

Terran, can you describe what you want? A human? An alien? If it's a human, do you want military uniform or civilian (politician) dress or what?

You describe it, I'll draw it.

Sorry but it turns out That it has to be human. Sorry Dogscoff if you were working on an Alien picture.

But send it to me anyways as I'm thinking of doing an alien species.
