Is that frown because I did crappy? 
Is it because I downplayed myself?
Is it because I mentioned ii in a previously clean forum?

Is it really THAT horrible?

[Flux]

I just noticed I titled the edited pic "talent"
I SWEAR that wasn't intended to imply he has any...

[Buster's Uncle]

Is it because I mentioned JB in a previously clean forum?

[Flux]

Well, yar innocence is gone. <- the whole forum) Nothing you can do about that, now.
It'll happen - Eventually we'll get someone here just to troll. He'll reference the man, now.

[Flux]

Now pretend that didn't happen.
Gonna move on from this thread, maybe make a smilie...

Bases17



10 structures adapted from Rise of Nations, laid out to copy/paste into the .pcx of your next custom faction.

Bases are the most difficult aspect of a SMACX faction graphic to create, so it is hoped that these graphic goodie files will give beginners at faction modding a leg up.  See also the Portraits, Diplomacy Landscapes and Logos series, also in this Downloads section, and for info on art techniques and/or to communicate with BU and ask any questions, see the Graphics thread: http://alphacentauri2.info/index.php?topic=1237.0  These are a lot of work to put together, so please be sure to credit me in the empty space of the .pcx.  Posting to let me know you found it useful would be okay, too.

Thanks to JarlWolf for the RON files I worked with.

Diplomacy Landscapes3



23 diplomacy landscapes, size/croped and scanlined to copy/paste as-is into the .pcx of your next custom faction.

Diplomacy landscapes are one of the easier aspects of a SMACX faction graphic to create -provided one hasn't anything terribly specific in mind- but it is hoped that these graphic goodie files will give beginners at faction modding a leg up - given a logo appropriate to the faction, all the elements of a faction graphic are available in AC2's Download section for anyone with elementary copy/paste skills and a graphics program that can handle .pcx files - a good eye/taste helps, too.  (See also the Bases and Portraits series.)

For info on art techniques and/or to communicate with BU and ask any questions, see the Graphics thread: http://alphacentauri2.info/index.php?topic=1237.0  These are a lot of work to put together, so please be sure to credit me in the empty space of the .pcx.  Posting to let me know you found it useful would be okay, too.

Portraits5

Leaderheads are the most time-consuming aspect of a SMACX faction graphic, so in the same spirit as the Bases, Logos and Landscape series (also to be found in the same section of AC2 Downloads), here are eight leaderheads, ready to copy/paste as-is into your next custom faction.  It is hoped that these graphic goodie files will give beginners at faction modding a leg up.  For info on art techniques and/or to communicate with BU and ask any questions, see the Graphics thread: http://alphacentauri2.info/index.php?topic=1237.0

These portraits were a lot of work, but all I ask is that you credit me in the blank space of the .pcx you use one in.  Posting to let me know you found it useful would be okay, too.   Enjoy.

Well; it was just an avatar challenge, but I realize looking at the result that if I ever get around to doing that Star Trek faction set for a GotM I proposed years ago, I've got a leaderhead already for the Orions...
