Kualan Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Hi folks. Was wondering if any of our community modellers would fancy trying their hand at this chap - he's of the Chagrian species, and is glimpsed throughout the prequel trilogy: His name is Mas Amedda. In the films he is basically Palpatine's toady in the Galactic Senate. Alternatively, in the EU there is the more fiercesome-looking Sith of the same species, Darth Wyyrlok: Would anybody be willing to make a model of this Chagrian species? I've always found them to be one of the more interesting species to come out of the prequels - like a more dangerous version of the Togruta. If you do consider taking up the request, they would only need a basic skin to start off with, as I would be happy to do the actual re-texturing to make them distinguishable as Mas Amedda / Wyyrlok respectively. Many thanks, Kualan Omicron likes this Link to comment
eezstreet Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Interesting. I'm surprised that this one was never made. Stoiss likes this Link to comment
Kualan Posted September 1, 2013 Author Share Posted September 1, 2013 Interesting. I'm surprised that this one was never made. Aye, he's one of those chaps that seems to have fallen through the cracks during the height of the JK modding years - along with folks like Pablo Jill and Bail Organa. But hey, if Boss Nass can get a belated model release then maybe there's hope for Mas Amedda yet! Link to comment

But hey, if Boss Nass can get a belated model release then maybe there's hope for Mas Amedda yet!Bail Organa could be reskinned from the Lando model. Or at least his Episode III outfit can. Not sure about his Senate outfit. I'm surprised that hasn't been done. When was Boss Nass released? I know it was in MBII but I didn't know it released separately. Cerez likes this Link to comment

Not a bad suggestion at all. I'll have a look into that myself and see what I can come up with. And Boss Nass was released on the filefront site: http://jediknight3.filefront.com/file/Boss_Nass;116371 Circa and Cerez like this Link to comment
Circa Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 That's a decent model. It should be hosted on JKHub. You should take a stab at Bail. You're a great skinner, you can do it. Link to comment

I'll give it a shot, but can't make any promises. Making reskins of human faces is a farcry from a few clone trooper armours. The last time I tried it was to make a Captain Typho variant of MB2's Panaka model: Was never happy enough with it to contact the MB2 team about releasing it. Might return to work on that too one of these days. Link to comment
Circa Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Not bad! I agree, faces are really hard to do. I can't do it at all. Link to comment
Kualan Posted September 2, 2013 Author Share Posted September 2, 2013 Results aren't going so well at the Bail/Lando thing so far. Ah well. Link to comment
Circa Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Results aren't going so well at the Bail/Lando thing so far. Ah well.I'm sure you're doing fine! I wonder if anyone else would be willing to do it, if you'd rather. Link to comment
CaptainCrazy Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Looks pretty cool Kualan likes this Link to comment
Kualan Posted September 4, 2013 Author Share Posted September 4, 2013 Looks pretty cool Aye, the species in general just has a pretty cool design - which makes it all the more surprising they've made it this far without a model! Link to comment
katanamaru Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Someone did make a Wyrlock once. It wasn't very good. I don't remember their name, but I may have it. It was the same arthor who did the Demona model. Link to comment

It was the same arthor who did the Demona model. I went a-snooping after reading this post, and stumbled across an old filefront thread where someone was posting not just Wyyrlok, but a whole bunch of Legacy-era Sith models: http://forums.filefront.com/sw-jk3-modding-mapping-editing/374926-new-sith-order-model-screens.html They could do with some heavy re-tooling in the skinning department, and some (such as the Quarren and Aqualish Sith) contain ported content - but does anyone have the other models? They were apparently hosted at the Void for a time. I'd love to get my hands on some of them for some tinkering. Link to comment

He was a horrible texture artist and modeler too. He never released the Wyyrlok I don't think, not even on the Void. Link to comment

bednarro Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 (edited) http://z9.invisionfree.com/Hapslashs_Void/index.php?showforum=18 - on this forum was a great skin of this species and Jaina Solo of course;) Edited September 5, 2013 by bednarro Link to comment

Maybe somebody has some stuff from there? Aye, it is a shame so many folks opted for Filefront back before it began such an aggressive deleting policy. There are some skinpacks on the Void that I would love to re-download but are most likely lost forever, such as the Pellaeon pack. Jeff, bednarro and Circa like this Link to comment
Kualan Posted September 13, 2013 Author Share Posted September 13, 2013 I'll give this one shameless bump on the off-chance that it was overlooked by one or two folks, but failing that I'll just have to accept that these chaps probably won't see the light of day! Link to comment

Kualan Posted May 1, 2014 Author Share Posted May 1, 2014 Cheeky bump since we seem to have a couple of new modellers about these days. CaptainCrazy likes this Link to comment
