Hokay, so I finally got around to finishing up TC2 to go with BrotherBryon's HTL Poseidon I textured ages ago. This mesh is based off of ION3's mesh.

The texture isn't completely finished.. but I figured I would post something before I get some sleep.

Now as to the Poll. Given that we've already differentiated Fenris/Levi and Cain/Lilith pairs, I was thinking that it would be nice to give TSC2 a slight visual difference from TC2. I have a few ideas, but I wanted to see what you guys thought. Also, I'd rather not alter the mesh because I'm lazy and this one is already UV'd, LOD'd and has Debris.

I voted "some mix of the above", 'cause I'm all fine with whatever mix of glow color, hull or stripe difference you want to come with.

Keep up the awesome work !

I think it should be a little darker, and maybe with blue glows.

Agreed here. I think it should be analogical to Fenris and Leviathan. A bit darker and with blue glows.

Shouldn't it has like additional armor on it? the darker metal is closest to it but it still feels cheap :P

Well,
Also, I'd rather not alter the mesh because I'm lazy and this one is already UV'd, LOD'd and has Debris.
So, unless you manage to convince him otherwise...

This can be done with textures with no additional cost.

I am voting for general adjustment of the textures going for a subtle difference, change of grey tone, different glow colour (as seen with the HTL Fenris/Leviathan), that sort of thing, beyond that it should stay identical, certainly no mesh changes.

I've voted for "Some mix of the above" 'cause I'd like a different glow color and darker metal, Fenris/Leviathan style. You can leave the straps as they are.

Maybe alter the lines of the armor plating a bit so that the armor appears in bigger slabs for the TSC2?
Just a suggestion. The coloration looks great.

I voted Colored glows, Easy, fast and a no brainer to distinguish between the different types. Good example of KISS.

Huh, that's a good idea. I'll see what I can do.

EDIT: Here.



If these meet approval, I'm going to call them final.
