Also is it possible, being a massive 40k fan as well is it possible to design swords after Abaddon's sword Drach'nyen??
As a 40k fan myself, I started on this tonight. It's an early WIP. Looking at it now, I sort of regret being faithful to the proportions. Kind of wish I had exaggerated the proportions somewhat to fit in with Doom's weapons. Ah well.
Thanks dude!
I think what I'm going to do is make both (as I need some variation for the HD skins), and just use whatever looks best for the diamond armor.
Cannot for the life of me figure out how to get the Frostmorne Sword for all weapons...
They swords are located in the Items.psd inside the Alt Textures download.
You have to manually take them from there and add them to the Items.png in your texturepack.
Yes!
I was actually going to try making an animated chain-sword to go along with the armor, and wanted a recognizable Chaos weapon for when I get to the Chaos Marine variants. That works perfectly, although I may have to tweak the proportions a lot.

Very cool! Seriously, great job on that!
I hope you don't mind if I take a whack at it too...?
But my version of him has the daemon face upwards in red, dripping with blood like a bloodletter but leaving the spikes gold.
Similar to this: http://www.google.co...:17,s:117,i:167
But with the blue blade of the 1st one i linked... with the deamon like this one. Repainting mine atm and having trouble as its very very old and lost alot of detail from age, and glue...
not sure if that'll do it for you but who knows abaddon was my first model almost 18 years ago... haha
I wonder iff you could make pigmen like bloodletters...? that would be way to damn cool.
ill link a few pics of mine for you to see. the bloodletters im working on...

Yes, by all means!
Just finished mine. Changed the colors to those of xXSiiNXx's repaint, but I definitely feel it was a mistake to preserve the proportions. Can't wait to see your take on it!

all i can say is thats sick, make me wish i could pull that kinda artistry off. there are many colours to mess with when it comes to Drach'nyen. but this colour scheme is the original painted by Games Workshop. I have seen many, black blades, yellow, orange, flaming glow, purple, blue, yes even green o.O... and some matching colours for the daemon face part, cept the gold/brass tends to always remain the same (as it should imo) i have no idea how to post actual pics or id post some cool varients...
Anyway.
damn cool looking sword i wants it.

see all it comes up with for me when i open that is a picture viewer, and just shows a pic of some items. nothing more nothing less. so my confusion still stands...
Items.psd contains alternate item textures on separate layers that can replace those in items.png. Those layers aren't visible in your default Photo Viewer.
You need to use an image editing program such as Fireworks, Photoshop, Gimp, etc. to get the alternate textures from items.psd and modify your items.png. Gimp is free, but it could be a bit of a pain in the ass if you aren't familiar with image editing.
Off topic: I'm still kicking myself for not going wild with the proportions of that sword (exaggerating the hilt, making the blade stubby and pointy, truncating the jeweled/spiked part, etc.)
yeah im useless at that sort of thing... why you now make just diff varients that all i have to do is copy n paste lol make my life oll the sweeter >_<
that sword looks really badass, but if you feel you need to do all that stuff, make another one? see how it turns out?
the only way you will be happe, done mess with thins one just start from new.

check here i may have made what you want - pre made alts - just rename the one you want (remove the number)
-----------
edit i have fixxed better skies to a point... stars no longer appear in front of moon (i still have to fix the timing of the clouds). also i have uploaded alt suit/armours you will just have to rename them (instructions are included)
ignore the plumes i just havent got a recent photo.
Hey VonDoom I wanted to say I love the pack, been using it since it was a few mobs, and your doing a great job!
I had an idea though, what about Marvel Zombies? You could make them a skin or even random mobs maybe?

The picture isn't working at the moment, but I'll do a few different variants for the different materials, as I did with the other alts.
And, yeah, love the Despoiler! he was one of my favorite characters in the Horus Heresy novels!
Ok, gotta head back to work now, but when i get out I'll sketch up the sword and get to the digital work on the Astartes!
Yes, by all means!

In the meantime, here's some concepts for the Chainsword & Drach'nyen
You sir, are a god'damn legend.
but alas... i still dont know where to put it exactly... its slightly frustrating the hell outa me
the item alts go in gui folder in vdc gui folder (just remember to remove the number in file name)
I have finished the exterior walls, now to build the Keep, and a small town
its ok but why bedrock?
