Blackrock Hero

[GnoobSauce]

Here's an earrrrrrlllllyyyyyy WIP of the hero in my campaign "The Fallen"
(check my sig.)
NB: ive attached the .mdx so you can dl it and take a look at it if you want and make some improvements. maybe retexture it so i dont have to? xD

im going to keep the face and it's texture, but i'm going to retexture the body and everything but the face, cant decide whether i'll use attachments or add a weapon in. anyways, i need suggestions for the texture and everything. (He's a Blackrock orc btw.)

[GnoobSauce]

here's an update on his body texture. thinking about adding some black tattoos to his chest. still a WIP mind you.

[Felborn]

how about you give the blademaster model arthas' animations?

[GnoobSauce]

I don't like the blademaster model, I wanted a more beefy orc :P

[Felborn]

you could have modeled it...but it's your choice. Keep up the good work:P

[GnoobSauce]

update!
shortened the ears, the beard, attached the head and cowl to the bone_head instead of bone_chest by accident. also removed the hair and added the cowl. this uses all ingame textures so far, my modeling pc and texturing laptop are different so, this doesnt have the texture i have been working on attached.

thats making some progress!
i like it already, i hope you finish it though :P

for animations you could use jaina maybe?
thats something you wont expect and might not recognize ingame...

[GnoobSauce]

Well, he will be a melee hero, so i was thinking blademaster anims maybe? never transferred anims though so I'm not sure exactly how, though I will figure it out.

His texture is almost finished, have to do his cape, bottom part of his boots and add a cowl part to his chest as well as some black tattoos on his chest and arms. Oh and his shoulder pad too. not sure if I'm going to add his weapon in or just use attachments though.
thanks for the comments :D

His shoulder pad looks huuuuge. Other than that it looks fairly nice, I'd like to see it with custom textures you made.

[Debode]

I think that Arthas' anims will fit just fine to this. As overused as they might be, they are the best thing to use. Besides, transferring animations will cause the cape to be static.

[GnoobSauce]

thanks for the comments, guys, I'll post it with custom textures hopefully soon. I need ideas for his weapon. It should be something pretty epic, hopefully either a sword or axe :]
I guess I'll use arthas anims after all, but i do want him to have the spinning thing like the blademaster. any ideas on how to do that? it will be a proc of an ability of his
eg. Lvl 1- 2% chance on hit, hero starts spinning for 3 seconds, dealing damage to units in a 50ft radius and invulnerable to ranged attacks
level 2- 3% chance on hit
level 3 5% chance etc.

Do Blackrock orcs wear Imperial insignias on their belts? The lion symbol looks out-of-place on an orc.

W....I...P... Read up, he hasn't applied the custom texture yet. I am pretty sure there won't be a lion :P

Just letting you guys know, I havent stopped work on this or my campaign, I'm grounded and I should be able to continue work soon >.<
thanks for all the comments and stuff :D
