Archdruid

Night Elven Archdruid

Model by J.Eggermont (aka Garfield)
Skin by Dmitry Rommel (aka Bezdomniy)
Original concept, models and skins © Blizzard Entertainment

Another replica of a lost Blizzard model. This time it's the Archduid, a NE hero from War3 alpha version. Blizz didn't use this guy in the final version. His Ultimate spell turned him into a conglomerate of various animals (later used for Owlbear aka Wildkin). So here he is, exactly as he looked in Alpha. Model was made by garfield, I made the skin (mostly cnp/recycle of WoW skin, but looks good).

A very nice improvement. The antlers are much better than the random horns Malfurion has. And yeah in WoW the druid transformations has ears. Or horns if it's a tauren. :p

maybe if you made the ears the same color as the feathers it would look better.

5/5, it was what I always wanted, wll not always, but I wanted it, I will use a not custom skin model, using the skin of the druid of the talon, and the normal wildkin skin, oh, and, only if you don't know it, there is the icon of the ability in the mpq, it is named BTNForceofNature.blp.

And everybody wants beta druid of t, because it was perfect.

I hate to be a lemming, but how do you make the animations work in game. I played around with the Demon Hunter\Druid of Talon\Druid of Claw models - and I can't figure it out. I understand that the Owl Bear is apart of this model, but how do I make an ability that will make it change right, well change at all?

Anyways, this is a super model, way beyond many I have seem here on the site and I would love to get it to work. 5/5

Hm... a female night elf with an alternate form of some sorta pather would be a good idea, too... I also like Werewulf's idea. ^^

Whoa! Nice model

But I am having problems with it. Just like the other people...I need to know which ability to make so he can shape shift. I tried my best with Bear Form morph, but when I use it, he morphs to Moonkin then to to Druid of the Claw form and it shows his death animation. It's really weird...because it actually changes the hero into a Druid of the Claw. Please reply and help me out, thanks.


Great work btw :D.:infl_thumbs_up:

I actually made it become it's elven form when using the ability... Not much better though. Would be nice if someone answered the question :sad:

Request an edit somewhere then, IMO I think the stag idea is cool; Idk morphing to the owl without ears; go to the request section anyways...

BTW; haven't tested it; but, the transformation maybe the tinker abi.
