Wooo that is some crazily amazing mesh and paint detail there, so many creases and bumps and variations in skin tone yet it all blends so well together I'm guessing he's definately someone in command based on the chin, everyone has the chin...

His expression..did he just finish duke nukem forever?

Well, its sure not Robert Hammer.

It could be with some coloring. It could never be Angelina for sure...

Thank you for the kind comments

I posted the image without stating who it is supposed to be so I could gauge the reaction to 'how it feels' out of that context. The comments so far have been very good, and have given me some things to consider

I do not consider myself a character artist by any stretch of the imagination. Designing a character around an existing one from a cast that everyone loves so much, but without having any real reference, is not something I'm taking lightly.

Well in reference to how Guba would really look you can always google up some Jim Darling ( of Codemasters ) pics as his face was used for Guba.

Well, believe me, I've looked for both modeling and texture references for Jim Darling, Jonah Lotan, etc. Jim Darling has like 2 pictures on the internet, and that is one of them. It's not suitable for texture reference, unfortunately. And besides, that's not how Guba looked. Guba's head isn't so round, his chin is much different. Jim Darling also doesn't really look someone you would call 'The Dentist'.

Thats pretty cool Max. I've often thought BIS character models lacked that tiny little bit of stuff that would make them realy interesting and entertaining so I'm interested to see how the enhanced characterizationturns out.I'm betting it's going to be very cool.

James Gastowski reference pictures (that's what my eyes saw when playing OFP)

I know that cwr 2 mod team will not make Red Hammer campagn (this campaign was made by codemasters not by bis). But if someone like to play this campaign, now you can. From arma2base you can download usermade Red Hammer camp remake for cwr2 by shj: cutscenes, radio messages and voices from original version in english. Only 1 small problem for many players: all briefings are in german language.

Only 1 small problem for many players: all briefings are in german language.

Which makes it more or less useless for the majority of players. If you speak no German, how are you supposed to do the job when you don't know what to do.
It's not that hard to make multilanguage briefings. Only thing that must be really translated are the tasks, the rest can be taken from the original stringtable files.

I had a look for it but couldnt find it. Link or is it not allowed?
