How about spiked iron knuckles? ^^ But really, I think that spiked fits better.

New concept!

As mentioned earlier, the Ogre Hero:
[pic removed]
Dunno what to call him: P. Anyway, the rocks on his back are used to throw on enemys (anim for that ^^) and big axe to slice and cut! Fel Guard's anims.

To do: Small skin modifications, some new anims, adding hero glows. This one seems to be easy to make so expect it soon^^


The Runemaster had some skin changes (hard to UV da bastard!) and some new anims. Altough it still needs many work to be done.

The Nerubian hero haven't advanced much... I only found one bug wnich I don't know how to fix and I'll probably have to start everything from beggining :(

Ogre Rockcrusher

Gotta love ogres with smashy weapons

Behold, the High Elven Unbroken!

The heavly armored High Elf wnich uses sword, shield and half-arcane half-holy magics. Things to do: new skin less resembling captain, alternate form in wnich the sword truns into light sword (or at least shines bright) and the same with the shield. Also bright light inside golden circle on his shoulders in alternate form. BTW I know that he has teal team color and red glow :P.

Ogre is entering the final stage and will be released soon :D . Rockcrusher name looks nice but doesn't really fit to the axe. Would fit hammer but no hammer: P.

Nerubian hero sadly is still on hold. :cry:

Runemaster has modified skin and revmapped textures at last (yay!) wnich means he will be done in a while too. :D

its going very good but like you said, still need a lot of changes

the "non-spiked warden thing" is too big for his size, he should be taller since elves are tall, especially "High-Elves" :lol:

sword is too short, make a long sword for him. change his face skin, or give him some helmet, still remenbers too much the priest

and all other changes you mentioned before

great models you are doing
#36
i like him how he is, putting the warden thing on was a good idea and looks nice.

how about a name for the ogre as ogre taskmaster.
#37
the kobolds already have a taskmaster. and would fit the taskmaster theme if he had whips instead of an axe.

how about Ogre Brawler?
#38
Raijuthe "non-spiked warden thing" is too big for his size, he should be taller since elves are tall, especially "High-Elves" :lol:


Actually High Elves are the shorter of the two races of Elves (Blood Elves are a faction more than a race)
#39
The golden circle will stay as it is. If it would be smaller it would look bad. Ok about the sword it will be longer. Besides it's like an alpha version so it can look strange. BTW HE are shorter than NE, I'm not quite sure but they are as tall as humans, only less bulky and more agile.

I thought of naming ogre hero the Ogre Gladiator. Those ogres were captured by humans when the interment camps still existed and been forced to fight on arenas just like the orcs (like the one with wnich Thrall was fighting). After all camps have been destroyed those ogres fled and joined some of the ogre tribes and now they are fighting on their local's tribes arena's. They often are warchief's of their tribes as they are considered as the mightiest and strongest.

Dunno, tell me what you think :?
#40
I don't remember Thrall fighting an Ogre in an arena in LotC, I remember the straw Troll model but maybe I'm forgetting. It's a while since I read it :D

And I think the circle thing is fine as is, any smaller and it probably wouldn't be noticable from a normal game view.

With High Elf height they're only slightly taller than humans.
#41
Thrall beaten 7 gladiators in a row on one of the arena battles, the 8th was an ogre.

BTW Ogre Gladiator is finished and released. 8)

blizzard's elves are too small

if this hero were taller, he would be more imponent. he looks so, defenseless, so weak...

of course, with the major changes youre going to give him that might change, but i still appeal for the tall elf idea
#43
Blizzard Elves aren't too small

NE aren't small. They're 7 feet tall

High/Blood elves are shorter. Which is good

Screw tall elves, lets hear it for tall... murlocs?

And if he was taller, then he'd be out of proportion

However, he needs a much more impressive weapon than a simple footman's blade
#44
Well, the High Elves are mostly royalty, so a variation of the basic sword can be expected. However, if you could put something completely new - like a mace, morning-star (flail with mace head), battle-axe (a la MK) or even a warhammer - you could get an interesting model.

Idea for another hero you could make: the Human Black Knight. The idea might sound kinda used already, but a hero that looks like the human commander from the ROC intro (helm, shield, big sword), with perhaps a little darker look, could be impressive. According to Blizzard, the Death Knights that serve the Lick King were ex-Paladins. This Black Knight could be one of these paladins that had started to turn, but had not reached the complete evil of the Scourge yet. That way, the hero would have plausible access to both Holy and Evil spells, and being mountless would make him an welcome change from seeing only mounted knights.

Okay you sonw that high elf's turn into blood elf's when the undead crush theyr fountain in the WC3 so high elf's and blood elf's are the same race just different name :oops:
