Default Aarklash Mod

Hi everybody !

I'm trying to make my first mod and for now the forum is wonderfully documented... so everything would be wonderful, except that i'm not very good at drawing : even with the "ultra easy technique" to screenshot and modify dom3 sprites, i can't do something worthy...

So maybe someone could help me and draw some for my mod.

The theme for my mod is the Aarklash world from the french compagny "Rackham" (you can have a look at their wondefulllll figs there Rackham) : i have started with the goblins... so if there are people willing to help, it would make my day !

Thanks to all.

And thanks for all the great mods you have already done (but no thanks because i have no more time )

NB : sorry for the english, i'm not very good at it...

I just wanted to say those miniatures look superb - I've never heard of the company before (probably because I don't speak french) but they do great work.

As for graphics - you just need some practice. Use the existing sprites as a base and work from there.

Actually, you've answered your own question, Cugel.

I would suggest just cut and pasting the miniatures (in 2 dimensional graphical form, ofcourse) with a paint program. I suggest Image Forge, it's free, versatile, and pretty easy to use.

Then either modify those images until they aren't copy-right enforceable, or convince someone to do it for you, and you've got what you need.

By the way, I'm at work, so I can't research it properly, but what language is this in? It looks French from the brief glimpse I can manage at the moment. Too bad I don't speak more French...and you're doing just fine with the Queen's English, by the way-better than I ever Parles vous'ed Francois, that's for sure.

Ok, thanks for your reply.

I will try with Image Forge and tell you about the future of this mode : if i can do somethning that will no more make me puke at firt sight .

For all the people who want to have a close look at the Rackham's universe, the site is also in english (and in german and italian i think) : just click the little flag in the top left of the page and voila !

See you soon (and don't hesitate if someone want to lend me hand).

Umm... well. The search function on this forum is pretty hard to work out, but it should be somewhere in the dom2 mods section.
