Dawn of Warhammer 40,000: Firestorm Over Kaurava

now with extra weapon goodies, 8 randomised heads, 2 randomised sergeant heads or dominion helms. still need to model and uv map the heavy flamer.

oh, they have been tweaked and remapped quite a bit also, so modifying H-8's texture is going to be needed. mainly moved around a few bits and pieces and enlarged the areas where the texture is really crappy... like the thighs for example to match the quality of the rest of the texture, blagged from the canoness.

no more "pointy" breasts either.

Frick'n very sweet dear sir! Most marvellous! Finally IronLore's Sis models can be done with justice!

Wow, this is good!

Now please forgive my ignorance Warmaster, but are those 100% your models? I can't really remember...

Regardless they look great!!

Err.. they are from the vanilla Sisters of Battle in Soulstorm..

No, there tweaks to Hanger-8's models, it says so in the OP.....

They look like vanilla Soulstorm Sister models though. Did H-8 just tweak those then HH tweaked his? Oh this is confusing..

I thought they were hanger-8 textures.....

They've been edited from Hangar-8's original if I'm correct..



Celestians, Hangar-8 textures.

Google'd Soulstorm original Celestians..

EDIT; for sizes.

Also, looking good! Can't wait for my SoB to get a FoK upgrade.

Wait a minute, If I' understanding this right, Hanger-8 is the texture for the SoB, Horus is making a new model is that right? He's also saying that he's going to modify Hanger-8's texture. I'm pretty sure this is what he was trying to say

Warf you got it all wrong mang. Hangar 8 is not a modeler. He did the sisters of battle retexture pack and made it public. Now that Horus changed some pieces of the models that texture needs to be tweaked to match the new model.

At no point did Warf mention anything about Hangar-8 being a modeller, Rock. Now, go back to appreciating Horus' work on the ILE/Relic models that were retextured by Hangar-8.

I think he was referring to this post. But anywho, are you planning on creating more faces Horus?

@Horus:

Oh God, it was rather hilarious to read all of this "Hangar-8 what?" posts. Great work, Horus! I like new "teetes" ((c) Roman Belic) but I'd like to take a look at rearranged textures, if you don't mind.
Besides that, I don't think that SoB models needs new faces and other such stuff... Maybe a little bit of randomization with helmeted\bare head and random purity seals\=I= icons, but that will be sufficient. IMO, the IL made a surprisingly good job here and made really nice models, just most of their textures sucks (before H-8, of course).

ok to clear up any confusion.

the textures at the moment are the normal textures. i made the model changes.

in order to use H-8's stuff they will need to be changed to match the uv mapping of the new uv maps.

uv map changes:

Removed the head and hair textures, rearranged the backpack, removed the weapons and gave them their own map. the shins, thighs and gloves were removed and the cannoness ones added over as they look better and arent small.
the cape doesn't take up as much space as it used to after i deleted some parts of the sides to make it look more like the tt model.

head texture has been doubled up to have 8 heads instead of four.

gold bolter texture resized and had the better bolter texture added.

Gorby did you read all the posts?


I am loving thems new Tatas. Keep making us happy Horus.

In other words: vastly superior to the vanilla Soulstorm equivalents. Massively!

Aren't those shoes a little impractical combat-wise??

only as much as running around with no helmet and being anorexic (my god, look at that slim waist..... sisters should go into therapy)

It's armor corset's fault. It's freaky how a female can become insta-slim with a corset...

Problem? Not much into the tubbies - they generally don't fight too well in war. And fat women + sci-fi don't sell well among the men! Slimmer workout babies = profit! This is why most male artists paint/design their females very slim and often muscular as if an extension of inner instinctive desires they crave. If I wanted fatties I'd go to Cougar town! Har har..

I don't even want to think about what you're actually saying...

@Horus's link:

What a tight Achilles....These textures are badass, by the way. Any new hair?

there's no new hairstyles if that's what your asking, but the colours will be randomised or team colourable depending on what the texturer wants to do.

anyway there's up to 8 random hair possibilities.

i love their style of chainsword - can't they be added to some Space Marines's or black templars just for some asthetic's? stats kept the same of course - Plus sweeeet job

And we have both as I edited H-8's textures long ago to make hair tc. Just say if you will need them and I will upload them to SVN at once.

the current textures need to be updated any way with H-8's stuff so yea

The models are nice.

The high heel "shoes" looks very stupid - not the model it self, that's good - and looks stupid on that art too.
Completely opposite to the spirit of the sisters.

There isn't any sister miniature with that.

Except this one thing, they are great.

A personal preference, for me, is that the artwork looks so much better than the miniatures. Why you'd use the such an old miniature range as reference for anything, I don't know.
