An interesting idea was suggested in <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=82296&st=0' target='_blank'>this topic</a> and Zamma and crew are going to pursue this BUT ... we need a gnome model to proceed. If anyone out there could create a gnome model it would contribute greatly to this project. Simply follow the size guiedlines in the original post.
Yes we've done an exhaustive search for one, but none exist. <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Cute, but where's his beard and pick?
damn you nanites... DAMN YOU TO HELL :<
He can, we just want him to have a long white beard and a pick. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

do that later, just make a mini-rine first so we can have the code done, THEN we can have custom gnome models <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Again, what we are looking for is a "dwarf of folklore". This will be a mini-marine so to speak, but he's going to look like a gnome, about half the size of a standard marine, oldish looking with a scraggly white beard, and wielding a pick as a primary weapon with a pistol as his secondary. His primary functions will be to build and repair. If you need a better idea of what we're in need of here read the original topic by Yumosis. <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Well put. I am not a modeler but simply coordinating this project.
:edit: and it looks like his leg is unnaturally bent

He looked much better walking and running. Today we will demo him in game to get abetter perspective.
Still searching for a good skinner to do the face work, and someone to make the pick. Credit will be given in the plugin.
Is there a workaround for this? It's really the only glitch so far.
It doesn't look as bad ingame as the picture depicts. The problem lies with scaling him down. I think he's shrunk from the top and bottom towards the center, and the center is the same distance from the ground as the original model, hence he's a foot or so off the ground.
No problem, you will be mentioned in the plugin credits.
