Wow. Those are cool.

<putting some butterflies...>

 

Added a little more pixie-sweetness with some butterflies...

...and a little more menace with her pixie-stinger dagger :-)

 

Now I just need to figure out how to add the "Cuddly little hellball of death" of hers to the onDeath anim :-)

 

Edit: Also adjusted some smoothing groups on Tyndrel's oroboros

Fabulous work Rolo.  I think I prefer her without the dagger in her hand though.  With the dagger, it's a bit too...frozen NPC, and less of a statue.  If that makes sense.

<making a...>

 

I might have to make a special edition for you then, 3 :-P

 

I do understand what you're saying (hence the original position peter-pan-like on her hip), but I did not feel it gave any of the sense of dangerous pixie-cute-mischief-maker that I want for Rubies, Queen of the Pixies. Something that fits with her Cuddly Balls o' Death.

 

Anybody else, I'd leave it at that... but as I *do* have an earlier version with blade on hip... I'll do that for you :-)

 

Edit: Also, I was shooting for a bit of ambiguity about the statue being only a statue, which you won't really see until you see the damage and activated anims...

 

Edit2: Something else I haven't mentioned above was I had promised Rubies a set of dragonfly pixie wings and I was never able to deliver, so that is one of the reasons I *had* to do this memorial :-P

I haven't got around to making the gravestone kit yet, but, as FP pointed out, it's past time for these two memorials to be released.

The question is how to represent Pasilli (and did someone say that Lisa of the clothes and holdables is no longer of this world)?

The question is how to represent Pasilli

 

Perhaps a representation of Gond, the god of crafting?

<poking cestus...>

 

I'm getting an itchy feeling in my crafting finger... <the one he uses to supervise cestus...>

...so I may be interested in Pasilli's memorial. Thing is, I know nothing about him. Can his friends give me memories of him?

 

I will be doing a memorial for Suna and would like some stories, anecdotes, quotes or anything for her as well. Help me find their soul to invest in the statues Cestus carves.

 

Talk to me, friends.

If Suna is the lady that this community made memorials of, for the people of the Kismet community perhaps asking them directly via email at (click contact here) or via their forums would be appropriate.

Well there's this from the CTP:

 

"Pasilli, a tileset guru who created many custom sets for this project and many, many more that were released onto the vault. Pasilli helped us to merg sets, remove bugs, standardize options. Working with a dial-up connection, he still ensured that the many, many megs of files were transferred around as necessary. Pasilli, we miss you. Thank you so much for your skills and friendship. We sincerely hope that you spend what time you have left with your family. Enjoy them as they are more important than ANY tileset could ever be."

 

I think this is his web site.

This is a wonderful thing you're doing. It's just sad that so many have already left us! I didn't even know Lisa was gone too... (T_T)

Yes, that was his website, his son was going to take it over but I guess moved on with his life once his father finally passed away.  Pasilli had brain cancer but held on as long as he could.  He absolutely loved his family, but he also absolutely loved NWN and the NWN Custom Content community.  He was one of the original founding fathers of the Community Tileset Project which was why we dedicated the initial release directly to him.  He was a wizard with tile-sets before anyone ever knew very much about them, and he willingly passed his knowledge along to anyone who asked.  Italian, and english was only a poor 2nd language/translation for him but he worked at it very diligently. 

 

You will find work by him in many, many tile-sets out there.  Some he built entirely, some he only made additions for etc.  Some re-skin work, etc.  I think he also did some place-able work but I am not positive as I have lost all of my notes etc that I had from his early work.  I knew and worked with him for just over 2 years before he was forced to stop working online and ended up being confined to a hospital.  Passed a few messages to him via his son while he was still alive, but after his father passed away his son stopped replying to any messages sent to that email address.

 

Lisa was still alive while DLA existed and still alive at least 9 months after the release of Wyvern Crown of Cormyr was released by Bioware/DLA as a premium mod.  I had never heard anything of her passing away, but She had already removed herself from the general NWN community by that time though, and had no desire to ever return due to being insulted by too many folks in the general community, AND by having her work taken without permission and re-released by other folks without full credit being given to her.  She was working on finishing her PHD in Graphics the last time I chatted with her, but that was several years back.
