Model-IDpe193k

I had this idea about one or two months ago. But when I attatched and then tried to animate, the mesh didn't follow the bones properly. So I simply accepted the fact that I couldn't do such stuff on my own (wich is the reason to the high amount of Geosets in my Frosty model). But then I found a way around the problem, beeing reinforced by Magos.
So I have spent some time now, animating the model and gathering tips through a WIP thread.
I'd like to thank: Just_Spectating, Avator, BlinkBoy, Pyramidhe@d, Revolver, NhazUl, Misha, -TYRANID- and wereguy2 for support, critique and usefull hints.

The model uses a <acronym title="Warcraft 3"><acronym title="Warcraft 3">Wc3</acronym></acronym> cliff texture and it also has all natural cliff textures from War3.mpq imported. I will upload a guide on how to change the texture on this model using magos model editor. Check the comments for that one.

Now please enjoy the model. Give credit and don't edit the poor dude.

UPDATE:
Pyritie's moderation
Pyritie: It looks good, but it just needs a few things changed. First of all, that dust particle that goes all around it needs to be lowered to about 30-40 or so. ~110 is far too much. Also when the model is underground, hide that other dust particle emitter. It also needs a death sound event object. Maybe a birth one too.

Fixed all that and one more thing. I found that when you changed the texture to Lordaeron Winter cliffs, the wrapping caused the dude to get snow on his belly. In his case it breaks the laws of physics. So I changed the wrapping on the dirt parts (the arms had the same issue), now you can almost see a little biceps on the arms :)

UPDATE_2: Finaly found the sound.

UPDATE_3: Team colored gemstone added on the chest after a request (read comments on page 2).

    Pyritie: Whoops, forgot to look at it while animated (in unanimated, the "gem" isn't additive so it looked kinda weird). I guess it looks okay :P

    Approved!

    Hmm... So it's more like a "Turf Elemental", as it's like a section of ground, grass attached?

    Strange. I can definitely appreciate how much work you say went into this; not necessarily my cup of tea, though. :P

    No he's a part of the ground. He only happened to bring some grass with him when he rose.

    For event sounds, try using the rock breaking sound from that destructible rock doodad, or the rock golem
