Hopefully, I won't forget about this if I post it here.

Anyway, I've decided to model Pelinal which is also known under various titles, including Shield of Resdayn, a certain Dwemer Centurion that plays a role in one of my stories (Which I hope to update tonight.)

So far, I've only got a basic head ready, no details yet or anything.

Dang, I just can't seem to find the time to work on this thing. Anyway, I've done some stuff with the torso. That's all. Only half an hour of work I'm afraid.

Ibis, textures will come as soon as I'm sure I've absolutely finished the actual mesh. With the way I model, retexturing is a pain. Also, I'm afraid it won't be ingame at any point in time. I use the wrong program, the wrong file-format and I'll probably end up with like a few thousand polies too much.

Milanius, why the Dwemer never conquered the world baffles scholars to this day. Centurions like Numidium and Pelinal are unique due to their size so there were never more built of them. (The robot I used as the base for Pelinal was 126 metres tall) But even then, it doesn't make sense. Surely there must have been slightly smaller Centurions that were powered by more mundane sources than the heart of a god. And even if the biggest Centurion below Pelinal is the Steam Centurion found all over the place, they could still conquer the whole world by sheer power of mass-production. I guess they were just too busy having lunch or something. Or maybe they were really pacifistic.

Hahahaha very nice explanation Jack, very nice.

Your centurions are very well put together so far Jack. With every update they become more polished and what not. Can't wait to see them in fully functioning form
