Comments / Description:
A rodian father christmas. Complete with REAL dog-fur beard ;)
I previously used the Morgan model because of it's beard and general human appearance.
This is the second version of my Santa skin. This time I spent more time attempting to modify it from the constructive comments I have recieved (jk2files.com, massassi.net)
I left the rodian-style face to show a futuristic alien santa.
Since there's no fat human model I can think of, this is the closest I can get to an actual Santa skin. I'll keep my eyes out and maybe update it if I can find a better model ;)
It seems like santa would need a new model to keep all the stereotypical qualitites we associate with him.
I did think about making a little skin pack with skins like: Neon Santa; 70s Santa; Darth Santa; and other comical skins. Maybe add team support and more bots.
Constructive critism is welcome since most of the changes were based on useful ideas I'd heard from comments sections.
If you find any bugs; feel free to send me an email at: hekx@greyjedi.com
My next project maybe attempting to do a model; since there's so many SW characters left undone; and yet some many made.
Please note this skin is more for the comical value than eye-candy. The bot is quite amusing; so have fun fraggin ;)
