my first skin... 101st AIRBORNE DDAY
 

The faces are from Wolf-Man's DDAY Landing skins, the uniform and equipment is from Jojimbo's 101st Airborne pack and the Band of Brothers 3-Pack. The helmets and American flags are from Falpo's Airborne skins. I put it all together and changed some of it a little. I just wanted to give recognition to all of the people who's stuff I used. I wont be releasing the skins, I just wanted to show them to you all because I am always making requests and not doing it myself, lol. There is a Luietenant and a Private First Class. I also made a Sergeant but I dont have any screenshots.

You might not be able to see it good, but the gear is a sidearm holster, a grenade on the jump jacket, a trench tool, canteen, and wire cutters. I tried to make the ammo belt 3d but I didnt know how. If you're wondering, the thompson that the Private carries is ToeNail's.

its alright! biggrin:

Nice for first skin. cool:

pretty damn good for your 1st try

nice skin i dont download skins because it is a wast of time but i think that tis is one of the best cool:

good job man

very nice for 1st skin, keep up the good work

looks good for first skin

Woah thank you, but the credit goes to Falpo, Jojimbo, SGT KIA, and Wolf-Man. I just took some their stuff and put it together in accordance to what I like to see in the game.

did you atleast do your own scripting?

No I didnt. I used the Band of Brothers 3 pack and used different parts from other skins, modified them to my liking, renamed them, and saved it all.

there have been too many airborne skins...i swear....im never doing one again

i noticed this like 3 months ago yet ppl continue to make hundreds each day

Nice forst skin, Walker. Well done!
Though, while i've noticed your penchant for the Airborne, i will echo the calls for more varied skins. "A little less airborne, a little more variety" cool:

I dont care what anyone says, I only play with airborne skins because thats what I like. Out of the 'hundreds' of airborne skins I've ever seen, there are only 3 good ones. They are Jojimbos 101st and 82nd packs, and Falpos airborne. All of the other ones are crap in my opinion so I made what I like to see.. a lot of gear and a normal colored uniform. I tried to make it look like the picture in my sig a little. I

I have tried to help the situation where there are too many airborne skins. Its because theyre all the same model, just different colors with different faces. We need some new airborne models that have more gear. Ive posted several times something that everyone liked but I guess no one is good enough to do it, that or they are all lazy. I dont know how to model but Im going to find out and give it a shot. Just so you dont have to look it up, this was one of my posts.

thats looks pretty sweet man, u should release i know i would like it

I wont release it because I just used other peoples stuff and put it together. I didnt even do the scripting, I just modified .tga's and renamed them to what they were originally titled. Dont worry, I am finishing up a 101st Airborne DDay Skin Pack that I made on my own, only using Jojimbo's uniforms. Ranks are Pvt, PFC, Cpl, Sgt, Lt, and Capt. I will release that in a little while. You will like it a lot. Only one thing, it is only for Spearhead.

You should try and make your own uniform. wink:

All the airborne uniforms are pretty much the same, just with different colors and minor details. I darkened and sharpened Jojimbo's and added my own American flag to the Pvt, Lt, and Capt because they didnt have insignia on the jump jacket. I also sharpened the 101st patch and rank insignia on each skin.

If I wanted to make it look original, I would have to make an entirely new model, which I dont know how to do. I need to find the .tga's for an M42 jump jacket and the M42 jump trousers so the skins will look more authentic and original.

There are 5 different faces and all of them have facepaint, I used face .tga's from different skins and even made one of my own patterns.

All of the helmets are decked out with netting and burlap camouflage and I added the insignia bars for the Sgt, Lt, and Capt. Each helmet has a different camouflage pattern. The uniforms are a faded dark brown, and the equipment is a shade darker and shows up nicely. I will post screenshots when I get some.

guarnere made one. i liked it. needs some new skins though the used was a little plain biggrin: (do not do it without his permission though)

well then, lol, it stil is a nice job and i like it anyway

I fixed them up a bit. Here are 2 screenshots of the Private.

I plan on adding a jump knife, grenades, and other gear. I do not know if these will be available for download. It depends on how many resources I use from other modder's work. The jump jacket, pants, and gear are based on Jojimbo's 101st skins, but modified to my liking. I added my own American Flag, sharpened insignia and patches, and made the uniform a little dirtier because it looked too new.

The helmets were originally Falpo's, but I changed some of the camouflage patterns, toned them to a better shade, and added insignia to the Captain, Lieutenant, and Sergeant's helmets.

I have done no scripting on these skins, Ive just replaced the .tga texture files after I modified them. Because of this, the Cpl and the Lt both have the same face (like in Jojimbo's pack). Making my own textures was the easy part, but I have no idea how to put it together with all of that other scripting stuff.

If I send someone all of my .tga files in the pk3, can someone please put it together as a different one, and rename it? I will also send the .tga for a jump knife and grenade that I want to add. My email is Walker44@charter.net if you can help. Id appreciate it a lot.

Haha sorry I picked a dark spot on the map to take screenshots. Thanks for brightening them. Maybe when I get screenshots of the whole pack, you can put something together for me with blended images as a preview.

Nice skin

the ardenne forest. swordfight: freak: hake:
