Sacred Band Infantry reskinned

[Paltmull]

One of the many things that I love about EB is the beautiful units. But there's one unit that I've never really liked; the Sacred Band Infantry. So I've attempted to make some changes to the Sacred Band's textures. Here's the result:

Before:


After:




I've used the amazing work of Gustave, shown in the EB II preview, as inspiration - for the shield design in particular.



The tunic has been taken from the elite Liby-Phoenican infantry and edited quite a lot.

I'm very much a beginner when it comes to this, so any constructive criticism is welcome.

How to use the new textures:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Extract the files to your Rome - Total War\EB\Data directory. Nothing will be overwritten.

Find the descr_model_battle.txt file in your Data folder, and make a backup of it.

Open descr_model_battle.txt and find the following section:

; Carthaginian infantry - Sacred Band Phalanx

type			carthaginian_infantry_sacredbandphalanx
skeleton		fs_spearman, fs_swordsman
indiv_range		40
texture			egypt, eb/data/models_unit/textures/carthage/ebcarthage_infantry_sacredband_phalanx_prom_egypt.tga
texture			slave, eb/data/models_unit/textures/carthage/ebcarthage_infantry_sacredband_phalanx_prom_egypt.tga

Put a semicolon before the line marked in green above, and add a new line below it:

texture			egypt,eb/data/models_unit/textures/carthage/ebcarthage_infantry_sacredband_phalanx_prom_egypt_Paltmull.tga

It should now look like this:

; Carthaginian infantry - Sacred Band Phalanx

type			carthaginian_infantry_sacredbandphalanx
skeleton		fs_spearman, fs_swordsman
indiv_range		40
;texture			egypt, eb/data/models_unit/textures/carthage/ebcarthage_infantry_sacredband_phalanx_prom_egypt.tga
texture			egypt,eb/data/models_unit/textures/carthage/ebcarthage_infantry_sacredband_phalanx_prom_egypt_Paltmull.tga
texture			slave, eb/data/models_unit/textures/carthage/ebcarthage_infantry_sacredband_phalanx_prom_egypt.tga
