Genghis Khan Animated Leaderhead

[GhengisFarbâ„¢]

I will try to get GK done my the end of the month. But this is it. People have asked me to help them out, given me false deadlines, requested stuff be done in 72 hours, and now I find out that Firaxis is singling me out to badmouth.

I do not see me EVER making anything for Civ again. These people and their constant complaints about my not being able to complete stuff in 72 hours have totally burned me out.

They buned me out 2 months ago and I starting working on stuff again and this time its just too much.

Ghengis,

I would like to say thanks for your work. I have found your creations to be wonderful improvements to the game regardless what anyone else might have to say. My only comment to you would be to keep creating your master pieces but create them for yourself and not for others. If you care to share them, that is wonderful but it is you who should be happy with your work. No one else matters including me. So if you do choose to stop creating, it will be a sad day, not for me but for you since you obviously love what you are doing enough to put such detail into it. So I say instead of quiting, rest and then create for you and you alone. If you choose to share then great, if not then great but dont stop creating.

Genghis,
I second the sentiment here!

You are a great creator, I have been a fan of your work for a long while.
The cleo leaderhead you done for me was stunning and I include Egypt in every CIV3 session...!
I would hate to see you give it up because of the chumps in charge of firaxis.
Everyone knows they made a mess of CIV3 anyway.
Please rethink your decision...we need artists of your calibre for the CIV3 community.
We are the ones who appreciate you, even if the fat cats don't.

Take a break, relax and recharge your batteries.
Do it for yourself, screw everyone else!!!

Don't let em grind you down...

GhengisFarb, just out of interest, what have Firaxis been saying about you? I do think taking on all those requests was a bit too much, but if you do decide to continue, do so at your own pace. After all, the important thing is that you have fun

so is GK done? :???:

The big guy is going to be updated and redone with the new Amazons in my upcoming LeaderMod. I just got a superior male model and skin for him.

[Hypnotech 3]

Just one mild suggestion, feel free to ignore it, but....

Isn't Genghis Khan of the Mongols supposed to look, you know... MONGOLIAN?

This guy sorta looks Persian with big boobies....

[Azeem]

The eyes should look a bit more Mongoloid. Genghis Khan was a horseman, so he should look a bit more like this:

Mongols wore heavy furs since they lived in very cold regions and they didn't wear much armor since it would impede their mobility.

Here is a picture of a statue bearing Genghis Khan's face:

You should definitely keep the muscles (makes it look more intimidating ), but give the eyes and beard a little more of a Mongolian appearance.

As for the Industrial and Modern era clothing, Mongols still wear the same thing they've been wearing for centuries. So if you like, you can simply keep Genghis in his Mongol warrior outfit. Makes him seem like someone you wouldn't want to mess with.

[GhengisFarbâ„¢]

The new version is more blocky and squarish, I will see if I can make him look more Mongolian.

[The Wolfe]

You Should'av Made Him Look Like The Japanese Leader Because He looks Alot Like Ghengis Khan.

Forgive me for my criticism. I personally don't like the muscular look at all for Genghis. I greatly prefer the classical look, like in the ancient art depicting him. I think Civ 1's Genghis Khan looked really appropriate.
