part of his face, something like a respirator wouldn't be something that could just fall off. knowing 40k it's probably welded to his throat or something dumb.

Oh no. I wouldn't have thought so with Guardsmen

They seem to be strapped on

If it's not so much trouble then make it removable, detailed removable armour is always a plus as long as it's well sprited. But otherwise it's just cosmetic - no major difference.

i think you should have the respirator as part of the helmet, i mean it looks armoured, plus you see plenty of regular guardsmen without them, so it's probably special issue kasrkin equipment...

It originally was. But they gave them to some standard infantry in DoW for some reason.
In my mod it's only for the Kasrkin though. I'm sticking to the board game as much as possible.

Agreed, make it an attachable.

Detail never hurts.
If you get lazy and DO leave it welded to his face, make it look like it's been sutured in so we have some context for mysteriously unmoveable facewear.

Just to help a little bit I tried to find a good reference pic.

I've noticed some of them have metal face plates on them but not shielding their eye's.

They also have a large chin strap.

One of them even has a gas mask.

Hope I could help. :wink:


Maybe you could do a variation, example, like the Ronin.

PORBLAM FAUND!

Basically his head is tilting at the jaw instead of the neck.

Any ideas where I fix that? I'm pretty fail at fixing offsets

Also those face plates are chin straps. and the gas masks are Vox Casters. There like radio men. also I dunt need references. I have a ton of Imperial Guard models on my desk. But Danke anyway.

The way it works is you have your sprite

Top left is 0,0.

Then you define your sprite's offset.

That offset is, based on top-left is 0,0, so -X,-Y.

This Offset is the point on which the sprite will rotate.

All other offsets used by this object, will use the sprite offset.

So if you put your sprite offset in the center of the image, Then you wanted to add an emitter to the center of the sprite, it would be at 0,0.


In other words, 0,0 Is the top left, and when you define the sprites offset, you change where 0,0 IS AT, from the top left, To wherever.



This really doesn't make much sense without a visual, go to the wiki, and find offsets. I know, its a maze, you'll find it, even if its in the gun offsets example. I know that one is complete, although Either X or Y I forget which, is sort of backwards..... But once you know what it says, you'll figure it out.
