Lord of the Rings for myth2

Post by Hamurabi »

Guys, I'm sure many of you are LOTR fans...lots of MYthers are. I've started an amateur project to make a simple LOTR-themed plugin. Its hard to do alone, but I'm starting work on one of the levels already. I've edited some existing units to look like characters from the movies. Here's a list of things we'll make, or find units similar to:

_ Grimli (Dwarf Axe Hero of TSG)
_ Frodo (I obtained to make from ilusionist of the one Under)
_ Pippin (ilusionist with another one collection)
_ Samwise
_ Merry
_ Ents (It can be used changeling of the Chimera)
_ Aragorn (Fenris of Chimera)
_ Boromir (warrior Fir bolg of LoGa)
_ Gandalf (I made 1 Gandalf from collection of the Frost Warlock of TSG)
_ Knights of Rohan (It has a similar unit but it can be improved)
_ Legolas (I obtained to make one from 1 to fir bolg arch of LoGa)
_ Theoden (It can not be hard you found)
_ Saruman (Frost Warlock of TSG)
_ Catapult (Catapult)
_Eagle (Can be griffon of LoGa modify)
_ Troll (Troll of TSG)
_Wargrider (Wargrider of TSG)
_ Eowyn (Sister of Blade of Under)
_ Ghosts (Archs, dwarf reg and warrior ghost of Chimera)
_ Nazgul (Dragon red)
_ Nazgul (Saruman + Dragon red)

And here is a list with the units that I did not find similars or that the similars are not good
_ Knight of Sauron
_ Troll Hammer (Cluber)
_ Eowyn princes
_ Oliphant
_ Smeagol
_ Barolg (The fiend)
_ Knights of Rohan (I believe that it can be improved what I found I am not so good)

And here is some photos of the units that I made:

Frodo

Very nice. I've always thought a LOTR plugin would be cool, and it looks like you're off to a good start.

Might I suggest the TFL forest giant collection for the Ents instead of the Chimera one?

Since Ents are meant to be varied looking, both would be cool.

Lol Edda. The fact its by someone from Brazil makes it even better...Grim has some sort of thing for them.

LOL, sorry guys i wanted to say Gimli... :oops: lol but it in portugueses version is Grimli, if you search in google image of Grimli and Gimli. you can find more picts him if you write Grimli... i believe it because in another languanges the name of the Dwarf is usually Grimli.

if one does not learn from the failings of the past they are likely to suffer its return.

here is the Orc from the Myth Addict resources index. You might find it useful. But I'd say the goblins from TSG are much more like LotR orcs.

There is a troll in the 7th god units, though it doesn't have a club. Actually just remembered there is an older Troll unit with a club - I forget where it originated (think it was The Pope who created it) which I know can be found in Sillek's "Ref1" map.
Lots of Myth stuff at http://mythgraveyard.org.
Sometimes I put hard to find stuff in my my Udogs folder.
