modding

I released my very first armor mod available for download at Herena Forge. (Actually, it is my very first mod of any kind...)

Here is the link to the Wiki to read more about it:

Screenshots of many items are in my image gallery:

A couple of screenshots from the "Summon the Forge" mod. Lots of fun!

Feel the wrath of pink bunnies, summoned by the Mistress of Pink Bunnies. ^^

Watch out for those Firebats, they are Dutch! :P

I thought of writing this document a long time ago, and decided to sketch out some of the basics as a start... not sure if I'll ever complete it, so here's what I have so far. I originally envisioned embedded links for each subject / external resource, ideally with all the site's modding tutorials linked from this one document (this acting as a sort of overview / tutorial index).

Comments, corrections and suggestions are welcome.

DS/DS2 Modding: the Big Picture (an introduction for newbie's)

Here is a little shield I did earlier this morning.

I re-skinned the rusted metal buckler and made a shield for the "wearing o' the green". Who says St. Paddy's day only comes once a year?! :P

I made these four items earlier tonight. It is pretty easy to draw the skin on the arms. I would have liked to have made some shorts, but shading and drawing knees is too difficult with the 2D layout for Farmgirl.

Here are a few sample images from my armor mod.

I just posted a blog entry about this at the Forge but I was so happy about it I decided to post one here as well.

Based on a progressive weapon template for an ax by ghastley and with help from Charietto, I was able to maka a template for a progressive dagger. Earlier tonight, I thought to myself that I really like ranged weapons better and why not try to make a progressive bow template? Yes, it worked. *big grin*
