Now that you mention it (you're an experienced texturer), do you have any tips on how I can make the horns on the helmet pop out more? I really like what's been done to the Galadhrim helmet, with the 3D horn sticking out from the front (see pic below), but I have no idea how to do it. It would make my current helmet design substantially better. Actually, this would mean you'd have to make your own armor model. Ninja does a great job making some of the 3-D armor models for this mod, and I would be incredibly impressed if you could do it to your armor design. Good luck! GandalftheTurquoise responded to this already, but thanks. After reading around the Internet, I did figure that out (that you need to make a new armor model, and even how to). As far as creating a whole new model though... my goal only went as far as re-skinning it, not making something entirely new.

But with enough conviction, I think I could give it a shot. I just don't want to be creating new things on the side, because it isn't my mod; and who knows, they might just implement it in the future, which would waste a lot of my time...

Thanks for the advice, you put the whole 3D modelling thing back into the picture for me. :)

P.S. : Would "Ninja" (I don't know him), by any chance, be interested in helping me take my armor design to the next level? I could do it myself, but it would take double the time than with someone who already has experience. You're a Wiki mod, and he sounds like a higher up position as well, so it would be awesome if you could let him know of my project. I'm still in the process of deciding whether to let anyone help me with this armor design, but this is really an area where I most likely will need to call in help. Thanks! Ninja makes most of the models for the mod, and he's quite amazing at it. Most noteably, he's made the Balrog model. It would be nice for you to get in touch with him, but he's dealing with his own irl problems atm. However if you do wish to find him, I suggest messaging MG or Mevans about it. Good luck with the textures! (I'd also love to see you do some Dol-Goldur armor textures based on the movie ones.) Thanks! ~Aidan
