BIG ears :D Are you planning on making it an addon msh or a full playermodel? If the head is big enough, an addon'd work too, which is muchos muchos easier

i will stick the head on the neck of the rebbelpilot (maybe hansolo too) and edit the body allitle bit, beacuse sullustians are smaller and more bulky

What the emperor said is true. You could always scale animations, and if neccessary retexture the head of the original mesh so it is 100% transparent. Make this head an addon msh, and you can add it on more bodies. You could also make a Sullustan Jedi for example ^^ Still, nice! Bringing new species to BFII makes mods more original (thinking of own Ithorian)

Can't wait for full version! :thumbs:

Maybe you can add it on to the current Rebel Soldier, like on Renegade Squadron.... Are you going to add on the funky hat thing that they wear :P ???

Looks cool so far, Good Luck :wink:

You could ask someone else to add the head to an existing body, that way it would be a unit, and you could still use an addon mesh.

you probably need to add a few more edgeloops around the eyes and tweak them to gain more definition.

I don't mean this rude, but i just wondered; why do you have a topic for this? It could also just be in the model showcase thread i think :)
