Here's a set of 5 1920 x 1200 pictures suitable for use as desktop wallpapers 











I do not know why this didn't autopost when it went up in Downloads this morning...

Santiago is best I think. At least I like her. 

Excellent work. 

[Buster's Uncle]

There's also a series of Santi busting some kung-fu moves (w/o background, so lots of potential uses) that she plans to collect and post.  These are poser models, so again, potential.

Are these 2D pictures of 3D models? Meaning they could theoretically be used in a civ mod as a (animationless I assume) leaderhead?

[binTravkin]

Hi, Maniac! 

[Maniac]

Hello!

Was Mylochka BU's sister?

[binTravkin]

No idea.

Been a long time.
I think since 2007 and AC team in Civ4 demogame.

[Buster's Uncle]

She is - artistic family. [shrugs]

Yes.  And she's usually pretty keen on helping with that sort of request.

[Maniac]

It's been... a quarter of my life binTravkin. I must be getting old. :scared:

Those leaders seem like great quality for a hypothetical SMAC mod in case Civ6 is ever made.

Looks like someone is on annual compulsory leave atm.
Afaik, those leaders were made in Poser? Don't know if that can be converted to other 3D applications.

[Buster's Uncle]

Daz3D, mostly, a Poser-compatable freeware program.

She'd have a better idea than I -which is none- about whether something could be adapted, but I doubt much without someone volunteering some info about how 5 does it, wrt file formats and all.  One imagines there ought to be a way to convert or capture and save appropriately.  None of this came up on either side when there was preliminary work (that never came to anything) on Snowmane's Civ5 Maori leader idea...

I'll try to get her in here.

As BU says, these are made in Poser.  There is a freeware program similar to Poser available here:  http://www.daz3d.com/technology/

I don't know about directly exporting figures to games, but you can save animations in .avi format or stills in a variety of formats. 

Poser has a new version out that is specifically for game developers.  Here's info on that version:

Much more expensive than the version I own.
