Wulfruna: Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I know it's far from perfect, this is all new to me but I'm learning as I go. |

nameo: Thank you very much for the words of encouragement and yea you're right. I guess I just had higher expectations. I am averaging less than one view per hour even though I've been posting this in so many different places and even promoted it on Facebook. 1 Like |

I'm actually very impressed. Better than I expected, it's really quite interesting.But if I may ask, what's with the roman soldiers and emblem at the beginning. |

VoslerGrimsbane: Roman soldiers? That was a rather good representation of Bini soldiers (as seen from Bini artworks). A bit 'fancified' though. 1 Like |

Radoillo: Lol! They wore sandals and robes with the signature roman eagle emblem. |
Re: Full Animation Based On Pre-colonial/medieval Africa Is Here? by Kanoro: 6:16pm On Oct 19, 2015 |
VoslerGrimsbane: What emblem are you talking about? And what Roman soldiers? I Have an Ashanti soldier, 2 Benin soldiers, and no emblems. |

Radoillo: How were they fancied? I designed them directly from this bronze plaques and added nothing to them other than the helmets and the shields (which I took from other benin plaques)

Kanoro: I wasn't saying you added anything. What I was saying is there is a certain...finesse (?) in your representations which I don't really get from viewing the plaques. Not a criticism. I know you were as faithful to the original as possible. 1 Like |

Radoillo: Well I'm not offended or anything, just confused. Like can you be a bit more specific? I'm not really following you. If anything, I think I'm actually lacking detail and intricacy, like the design on the chest bell for example. And some of the other objects on the armor. I didn't want to risk interpreting them incorrectly. |
Re: Full Animation Based On Pre-colonial/medieval Africa Is Here? by Nobody: 2:26pm On Oct 20, 2015 |
Kanoro: There you go! The somewhat lack of detail sort of made the military gear 'less crowded' than it probably was in old Benin. But don't sweat it. Like I said your end product has a certain finesse lacking in the original and I like that. 1 Like |

Radoillo: Oh I thought you were saying the opposite. My bad. |
