Hey guys, while I was learning (or - am, rather) how to do UVs for my highwind model I decided to modify some field models, Cloud and Tifa.

New Battle Models:

New Field Models:

Cloud, you may remember from my other thread, is the same as the custom battle one I made, but now his belt insignia is no longer a texture, It's 3D, and Tifa - she isn't that different, but I made some notable changes - Her skin tone is more consistent, and I modified her face and eye position to be a bit more "matured" as I noticed the old field model from the (old) prp, like the battle model, looked a bit weird, and I shifted her bangs to be more "together" like the artwork. Anyway some screenies.
Old field Cloud:

New field Cloud:
CloudAfter.jpg

I also made a version without a sword on his back (which I use)
(I modified him as much as I could without seriously destroying the bone structure - there are some animation oddities, but they aren't that bad, and as a trade-off, he looks - and runs, like he's human now)

Old Tifa:

New Tifa:
TifaAfter.jpg

It looks like the eyes have transparency set... is that right?
 
I really like the new Cloud model and the Shinra models are great too. I'm not too sure about Tifa. Her nose seems a little odd to me.

Great work though!
 
Yes, It is something I haven't been sure of how to fix, just until a couple of seconds ago  :-D

Kimera's opacity settings were alluding me, as every time I set it to 100% opacity, it would revert back to 25, but I decided to hit apply in both windows and close the editor window without closing the Group Properties window. That seemed to do the trick, so that's no longer a problem, just in these shots.

Tifa might seem a bit odd because of either A. the transparency issue I just fixed or B. The difference in the nose? The old one had a dark shadow on one side, but I thought it looked too "painted on" so I recolored it to be a slightly darker tone to be like it's a very slight shadow.

Here's a shot showing fixed transparency.

I noticed Cloud's hair isn't as spiky either.  :P

Now that I look at Tifa again, the new model does look better. Will there be any releases for these?
 
Sure, as long as people want them  :D

So, which cloud should I include - with, or without the sword? Or should I throw in both?
 
I, personally, would choose the one without the sword. But it's totally up to you.
 
You should definitely release it, I personally prefer cloud with the sword, but it's up to you, those shinra models also look very nice, how about releasing them to?
 
Yeah, I would release all of them. I think I also have some custom soldier models I made a while back for battle I could release too.


EDIT:
Found them:

One more close shot of Tifa with fixed transparency:

Will release soon.

In my opinion you should put in both with and without the sword. That way people can choose. I love the models though!!! :D Definately gonna install them!

I love it, but if I may ask. Does this work in world map?

I could convert it later on for WM. But IMO if you don't want to wait you can do it yourself with kimera - It's not that hard, it would basically be replace each part from the WM model with mine.
 
I would but I can't get kimera to work for some reason. Get to it when you can. :) Keep up the good work!
 
Ok guys, here's the second part of this minimod, the Battle files:

New Cloud (Not as nice as a custom model, but for those who want the classic one updated)

New Tifa (Face from field model, plus i added an earring - and redid the shoes as well)

What do you guys think?

So far so good, but your SOLDIER picture is the same as the MPs picture.
 
OMG, that's awesome. Can you do this kind of manipulations to the other main character models? Especially for the battle models.
