    Was planning to make some statues at one point but people are hard to model and I won't be starting that project until I finish the one with the oil tanker and all the building components.

    Don't forget the highly detailed penises (I'm looking at you valve and your perverted horse statue)!

    Yeah I always thought that was a bit odd too.

    How large/where are these going to be used? Can you put the size in terms of things that are already ingame.
    Statues-Wanted:
    * patriotic statues
    * artsy statues (look around local musuems for inspiration)
    * famous people from Empires (need concept art)

    Is there enough story/background for the art? I know that is a serious lack of background for the war, so if there is no background for the art, I can always make something up :D

    When you say "rocks", I ask, WHAT SIZE?
    I understand rocks and such are needed to make infantry cover.
    Also, what kind of statues? Sould I look into old soviet cold-war era art for reference? What styles?
    What kind of bushes and trees? What climate are you putting them in? Dry desert weeds or lush rainforest flowers?
    It is not too hard to make this kind of stuff, BUT the modeler needs to know what he is doing.
    Let's say I'm gonna make a bunch of Jungle, Tundra, Desert and Forest props, will that work?

    For statues, High Commander Patterson would be a good NF one, he led the Jekotian forces before the republic fell and is considered the greatest Jekotian tactician ever IIRC (IIRC because I'm going from the canon).

    For BE, maybe the queen? I can't recall any specific figures of note from the canon for BE.

    I can always use:

    - Rocks for cover like in canyon and isle (the standard rocks that are used everywhere). For the texture, either something that works in multiple settings (more or less), or give it multiple skins.
    - Tiny rocks to be used as detail props on textures (not solid and Very Low amount of triangles)
    - Bushes (not solid)
    - Trees
    - Other stuff i can scatter around a map to be used as cover (like the rocks). To be honest, i can't think of a fitting replacement myself.

    When I said it prevents hotlinking, I meant you need to copy paste the link, not click it.
