Gnometaurs!!

Post by Deider » Tue Feb 21, 2006 11:32 am

I got this wild hair up my ass to make ‘gnometaurs.’ Those of you who know about my Gnomeworld project, I’m trying to build my own PW, an RP-heavy world where the only races are gnomes – wood gnomes, tinker gnomes, deep gnomes, etc.

I’m pretty much done with the basics, so now I’m feeling like adding some bells and whistles. So I thought… gnometaurs!

WTF is a gnometaur? You probably already guessed, but a gnometaur would be a half-gnome, half-horse creature. Or perhaps the lower half is a goat, or even an otter or something fruity. Mergnomes! Maybe even liognomes, kind of like a gnomish wemic.

Anyway, I know that there aren’t any gnometaur models out there, but that won’t stop me! I’m thinking I’ll play around with modeling a bit and try to modify an existing centaur model.

But… as many players have mentioned over the years, Avlis’ current centaur model… let’s face it, it looks like ass. And it’s not dynamic. So, I was hoping some of you more Internet-savvy folks could point me in the direction of a dynamic, non-ass-looking centaur model. Thanks!! :D

I thought Gometaurs were the upper half of a bull and the lower half of a gnome, whereas Centomes are the horse-gnome mix you're looking for. But then again, I got a B- in Gnomes 101.

Gnome, gnome on the range
