Starcraft 2 custom models?

Hello. Modding cumminty is always using custom models. It very useful for sure and make models for Warcraft is not "very hard" (I still cant make one). But SC2 has much better graphic and I doubt if our modeleres will be able to make models, that wont be totally out. What do you think?

There are plenty of talented modelers but the problem is that they aren't able to make high quality models. They already have those units who got cut and the Tauren Marine but could make some more if they want to.

Err dude, there are people who can model better than for warcraft III standards, there are plenty of them.

Hmm how many do think? I hope it lot of.

You could, you know, just search for mods for games like Oblivion, Unreal Tournament 3 and other games with great graphics. Then you see how good modelers there can be.

Also the thing is that for Warcraft 3 no matter how great you are there must be a limit for the quality of your model, otherwise it won't work or it will crash the game or something along those lines.

Same is for Starcraft 2, and I am expecting there to be huge amounts of modellers.

Maybe, here is a list:

TDR
SuPa-
jigrael
olofmoleman (he CAN model for games better than wc3, believe it or not)
Whitehorn
Sansui
+Any other guys who can do fairly high poly shit.

Yeah, but there is still many models which quality is bad even for WarCraft.

Anyway, hope these good modelers will move to sc2

EvilIllidanX is worth to mention.

Fuckyeah, why did I forget him D:

what about general frank? Or he doesnt make high quality models?

He doesnt scratch model (from the last time I checked, which was a long time ago, I admit), but I bet he will be able to work his magic with the new SC2 stuff anyways.

Even if nobody ever did a single custom model that won't stop me from playing around with the SC2 map editor. I can't wait to play the game! =) But I would still bet that there will be some really good custom model for SC2.

Lol, a armored space grunt! or a SC2 grunt would be uber, even a peon

I hope we'll be able to import mdx or convert mdx to be handled by Sc2 =D.

Anyway I could make a scratch model but i don't have the patience for that.
Making a model for Sc2 will take much longer and more focusing work.
I think there will not be so many custom Sc2 models as Wc3 ones.

I still could make SFX though.
