Wouldn't be nice...

Wouldn't be cool to have shields that looked a bit more like this in EU instead? :)

*whimper, whimper, whine, whine puppy-dog noises*
ahem...

yes it would, but is possible to make it happen or is this just a rhetorical question?

maybe rounding off the base of the shield would look slightly better, looks a little to pointy at mo.

Yeah these are just previews that I made to show some examples.
I think I'll do it, just wanted to see if there's any interest first. :)
Gotta make a template first then it's shieldmakingtime....

Certainly. I especially think it would be good for the Mongol Scenario ( the Shields have a certain Medieval simplicity to them).

Not that I am saying they are simple. :p
But I would certainly use them I know that. I hope there is more interest than just my humble vote.

They do look nice, tho

ANY COMMENTS GUYS, LIKE OR DISLIKE, LOVE OR HATE? roll up and give yer vote, once in a lifetime oppertunity to own your very own custom set of shields, none like them ANY-where on the net or your money back (even tho they will be free and in-fact we should be paying Birger Jarl! but enough of that incase he gets any funny ideas:p )

I'd say they still could use the frames, otherwise they are grand. I once tried to make EU look something like this, but I've been too lazy to finish it myself. Anyways, these are good, but frames or supporters wouldn't hurt. Or am I being too capriceous?

I'll see what I can do... :)
 
I think they look great!
 
Of course it would be great !! And extremely well suited for the Mongolian Scenario... playing with true medieval shields instead of those baroque shield frames !!

hmm.. can you put a more defined highlight on the shield to make it more metally?

those are just examples, haven't really made anything yet.
But as I say, I'll see what I can do... :)

Yeah it would be, but fun. :)


More like this look even better...

Birger, can you perhaps show us a screenie of how it looks ingame?

Sure, gotta make som modifications first, more things than the shields that have to be changed. But I can always do a cut and paste. :)

Tickety-boo, just the ticket. Dreaming of the screenie as we speak.;)

Neat idea :)
Hmm might be tricky with the interface graphics, might have to fiddle with them a bit. Especially that transparency for showing the shield without the support.
