Hey Farseer, this is just a minor detail. but you mixed Luke's hands up, he had the right one cut off.
Oh crap... Haha it's because I mirrored my reference image. Doh! Well it's an easy fix at least. I won't bother posting it but just assume it will be fixed in the release.
And you painted this? Truly amazing!
Yes I did and thank you!
Painted awesomeness.
However imho the eyes on the skull painting on the vod in white armor look a bit off.
Honestly I think it would be better if their shape would be changed a bit.
I thought it's easier to draw what I mean rather than explaining, so I took the freedom to make a bunch of quick sketches. :)

(I also made a version with a completely different faceplate because I was bored lol)
It's really just a minor detail as well, but it'd be great if you would at least consider changing it for the ingame texture.
Other than that, really great picture.
I will work on the helmet a little. and don't worry, all mandalorian heroes are getting an overhaul and will look like they do here.
I knew that, I meant if you don't bother to change it in the splash screen, because it's just such a small detail, you could at least change the eyes if you make the textures. :)
Gotcha, that makes more sense.
Amazing job once again, Farseer! But there are two things that look not right to me (of course, it's only my humble opinion):
1. Luke's face - It may sound weird, but his hair seems too small to fit the face.
2. Han's face - The eyes could use more luminosity (maybe you could add a little shine to them)
There is something about Han's eyes that are off, I admit. It's not the shine though. I think it's size or placement? I can't quite put a finger on it...
Say hello to my desktop... Awe inspiring work.
But yes, as some pointed out, Han's eyes look alittle dead, atleast thats how I would describe them. They look abit, well, just black, no white in them at all. Like he has holes instead of eyes.
Personally I love the image of Fett, but thats me being glamoured, I have always like him as my favorit charecter from the SW even though he wasnt in it so long... *shakes fist* Damn you Solo for knocking him in to that pit. :D
Yep, I will work on Solo's eyes a bit as there is something about them that's not right.
And blame Lucas for that one ;) Solo accidentally bumped the greatest bounty hunter of all time into a giant earthworm's mouth...and Lucas had to throw in the belch sound effect, just to add insult to injury... At least he escapes in the Bounty Hunter novels...
After what Han Solo went through in the Star Wars books, it is little wonder that his eyes look a bit "dead."
True. He went trough some tough ****... When all was said and done, he had a murdered best friend and murdered son, another son who became a Sith Lord, a sister-in-law who died of a rare disease...his childhood on the streets of Correlia, life in the Hutt's criminal circuit, carbonite freezing...etc... Not to mention his children and wife were constantly being kidnapped or held hostage. He actually had one of the toughest lives in all of Star Wars, in my opinion.
And he doesn't have the Force or Mandalorian toughness either.
But he did manage to become a continual source of annoyance to one tough Mandalorian and the future Mandalore. If you can earn the begrudging respect of Boba Fett, I'd say there has to be some "Mandalorian toughness" in you somewhere.
Indeed.
Damn! It's so hard to pick out which Mandalorian I like most. They all look so badass!!
I personally like Ram Zerimar. his armor is cool, his personality is respectable/honorable and he's one of the only fan-made characters to achieve an actual name, wiki page, etc. Plus like all mandalorians, he's an extremely capable warrior.
Good work. I always loved the RotM Splash Screen. Reminds me a bit of a thumbnail I made for your mod :)
