I answered this on the very same page.
Does this fellow have a set-up time/tear down time?
As it stands right now, no.

Makes me wonder, is he going to be decend in melee?
Think atleast in the background assassins are pretty equal to space marines, even without any power armour.

Maybe David-CZ can help you. He had similar problem with his textures.

This was a pain. Anyway so that everyone knows should they ever encounter the same issue - it's the mipmaps. All that is needed is simply to save the dds file with the checkbox 'generate mipmaps' checked and it'll work.

That's so hot, all we need now is a little bit of polish on the textures.
Great job

VA in ranged support (i.e. Ork beamy) and have him anti inf start with av upgrade or whatever with do nicely. I dont care about anything else because its just a pain in the ass presently and thats where the hole in the tree is for GKs i think. It would be heaven to just have a unit that slap bang does that AV job no fussing around changing upgrades and shit.

Latest (and I hope the last) model hotfix. Previous links are not available.
Texture mipmaps generated, bones are slightly tweaked.

I think all Kilgarn need now is a screenshot of it? I dunno, but seeing the final stuff would be sweet. I'm roughly 99% done with the unit stats / design, so maybe if we're lucky we can get it in within a week.

I'd like to see the list of upgrades to make some appropriate visual wargear attachments.

Model looks just perfect! A question though... wouldnt the stormtrooper black color be more suited?

All images I can find of vindicare are of it in black, same with book descriptions afaik. So yeah I think it should be black if that's ok

Yeah, probably abit more black wouldnt' hurt if possible. But I'm happy with how it is at the moment. I'm not sure how much work adding more black would be really.

Yeah of course if its easy to make it more black do it! If its too much of a hassle fuck it :p

It takes reworking textures in Photoshop/ illustrator or gimp.

Yeah still think he should be a lot darker. And more little gadgets/stuff on the model but that's probably asking alot.

I believe cosmetical add-ons and such are planned to be unlocked via wargear unlocks.

What would I need to do to make the unit available from the HQ? Spent some time playing with the textures in Photoshop. Would like to see if they're presentable or absolute rubbish first, if Gray doesn't mind.
