Manowar -- How about putting the Low Caliber logo on the dark shield?

Tried that one time Mano. It wasn't turning out so great. Everytime it was picked it up, it reverted back to the dark shield graphics. I replaced the dragon on the dark shield with our logo and it looked sweet on the wall until it was equipped.

If anyone still has the the last Uber Arena map (DM-UberArenaF.run) that I made it was in there. If you do, please post it for me. I lost mine on a reinstall of rune.

Do you consider the LCC logo to be the shield or that plus the helmet and feather/plant things?

Would it work if the 'dark shield' was remade? Forgive me if I am ignorant on the subject of skins,etc I have never worked with them before.

heh give me a .bmp texture map and the model in milkshape and I can skin it for you. Otherwise I wouldn't know where to start.

That's a pretty cool model, Thorgrim.

Whatever looks best - as long as it's still obvious what the logo is.

I don't recall seeing your shield, Fais. Unfortunately I lost the uberarena in a reformat.

Whatever happened to the lcc skins? Like trialpitlcc.The trialpitragnar with the lcc patch on arm.

K thanks

Oh yeah, I have to give credit to Pencil for the use of the pic . . . (want to give credit where it is due)

Aw poo, what happened to my idea?

Pencil = proposes to get rid of the darkshield and just use the much more LowCal shields we know as the Viking Shield, Viking Metal Shield, and Viking Cross Shield. All in favor say "¡Olé!"

...:crickets chirping:

I think you idea is still of interest to the clan to put into action. I am doing something not necessarily for the dark shield thing . . .

!!!!!!!! You called it a clan! Quick, edit that post, mister!

...Aww, you're not on. Here comes the cavalry...

I retract my label of 'clan' as it was not intended to refer to said forum and its members who comprise LCC.

Nice recovery, bud .

I say ¡Olé! .

LOL

Hey,

I was messing around with the LCC shield and here is what I did. I kept versions on the top left that were true to the original. I also did some other shield shapes and treatments to see how it looked. I had to bullshit the artwork on the sword but it is relevant (raven heads, a flying raven on crossguard and pommel has Viking elements too). I did it all in Illustrator so it all is clean, vector art. I will try to put the LCC on the Dark shield in Photoshop to see what it looks like but I probably won't today . . . *whew* (and I will use the sword and cross on the original LCC shield but put them on the Dark shield)

I am NOT trying to change LCC, only showing ideas in my head. If you like/ want any of them then great and I can send you the Illustrator file or make what you would want.

Anyway I will shut up now. Gotta eat before I go to the gym anyway

I am curious what you think so please feel free to let me know.

I'm personally not a big fan of the deep red or the grey border.

As far as the others go.. it could go either way depending on how they look on the shield.

Here.

I took the art off of the current LCC shield and put it on the Dark Shield . . . sorry Pencil





I need to crash now since I worked out and usually go to bed earlier than this (muscles need sleep )

hope you like this one. I can make it a BMP if someone can model it, etc.

Hey hey, I find it all too awesome that you did all that work. Very nice job, very. .

As for the second thing, GRR! Darkshield is unhealthy !!!! But still, great that you're working, good good stuff.

It looks nice in the picture, I wonder how it'd look during gameplay.

I'm also curious about their file sizes. As we already have a sizable download.
