Sith Jedi Statues from MOTS

[Untold Prophecy]

Would anyone be willing to make some skins of the Sith Statue enemies from the Dromund Kaas level from Mysteries of the Sith?

While they seem relatively bland today, I still find a level of horror with them whenever I encounter them in the old game. Feel free to get as creative in your interpretation of these old ass graphics, lol! I really want to use these skins/make bots out of them for Multiplayer in JKA. Thanks!

OCD correction, lol

These are interesting and yes they gave me some horror as well in game. Any idea on what the base model should be? I'm thinking just a random jedi/sith and do you want the phantom to be transparent?

[Jeff]

Here's an idea for one see what you think. I want to edit the model a bit but this is the general idea.

[Untold Prophecy]

Yeah, they were one of the cooler enemies from MOTS. The sound design for when they'd die or get hit was really cool and scary, if you can add that in. 

I feel like they should be bald though, maybe even have some discoloration in certain spots on their textures.

Model-wise, that's a tough one. What do you think goes well for those two? Do you think the Jedi2 one might be more reminiscent for th brown one, then the one you have pictures for the grey ones?

If you need inspiration, I suggest you google the Weeping Angels from Doctor Who.

Sure I can add the sounds can you link me to a youtube video with the sound effects as I can rip them from there. I will go with bald then.

There's some of them within the first 5 minutes of this video. I think right around the 3 minute mark has some of the cleanest sounds without the OST or other interference.

Thanks

The ones, used in MOTS, were the model of Jerec and Yun from Dark Forces II.
Perhaps using Jerec's model for at least one of them would be the right choice.

Thanks that's good to know. I think this will do for the gold one and I'll use Jerec for the other.

That looks really good!

The eye glow looks really cool with the texture work! 

[Teancum]

Those look great @Jeff! My only suggestion is to add some embossing to things such as belt lines, collars, etc since they would have to have been carved out of stone.

Their actually called Sith Statues.

[minilogoguy18]

Yeah, I thought that too. They were statues in the temple on Dromund Kaas that guarded it.

I figured out why I kept calling these guys zombies instead of statues (which I knew, but wasn't remembering correctly). It turns out there were SIth Undead in the later levels in the Dark Temple that I completely forgot about existing!

This one – the SITH UNDEAD – was made for MOTS mod, based on Jaden Male model. In the original they would fall apart occasionally, when you bring them the 'final death'.

I remember reading the post from one of the developers of MOTS of 2005, regarding these guys: 

Mara finds and enters the ancient Sith temple and discovers that Kyle has gone a little bonkers with dark side power. 
She has to chase him to the center, but first--- ZOMBIES!

That's right. I don't know how we got this one past Licensing, but there is an area of the temple called The Catacombs, 
where the undead Sith will rise and fight you. Yep, Sith Zombies, people. It was great. They shot lightning 
from their hands and were generally pretty pesty.

And it's canon. Zombies are canon.

That was a time for experimenting.
