Author's Notes and Trivia:
  • The Ranger (Sylvanas and Shandris) model is a modified Archer model, with a hood instead of the long hair. The model is also slightly larger.
  • Optimized models have built-in portrait animations, fixed bugs (if there were any), additional animation (if applicable). These can be used to serve as a template for alternative skins if you want to keep the original skin and model.

Wow. What an impressive collection.

So what's the difference between Sylvanas as Forsaken and the normal Dark Ranger?

I'm not so sure either. A lot of "duplicate" models for lore characters exist of which I'm not sure of the differences.

Anub'arak vs Crypt Lord
Maeiv vs Warden
Sylvanas vs Dark Ranger
Tyrande vs Priestess of the Moon
Muradin vs Mountain King

For Sylvanas vs Dark Ranger, Sylvanas' spell animation is looping while the Dark Ranger's is nonlooping. Not sure if it's a bug or something. I simply didn't bother uploading an optimized regular Dark Ranger.

The night elf version needs more team color.
Her face in the forsaken version looks very weird.
But the "Jaina version" looks so cool, it's quite useful!

I noticed that the lore character models have a bit better graphics and maybe some little colour differences. For example Uther model vs. paladin model: Uther's eyes have better graphics and his pauldrons have golden colour while the paladin has silver/steel pauldrons if I remember well

i see you made hero and unit version of ranger's and they look really nice, but umm, if i may overstep my boundaries and say the night elf unit one does look nice but there are other versions that are kind of better (only unit) but the hero version of your night elf ranger is just awesome, and here is where i wanted to say if you could make a unit version of that same model it would be really nice !!!

Isn't the original Night Elf Archer model what you search ?

Hi made an icon for the blood elf ranger, and as you may have guessed i want your permission to post it here on Hive.
If you give me permission to do it, I will upload the last two icon of this image:

188465149_303959354678072_3346724298828425534_n.jpg


The first is a warcraft original, the second is all you see, the third is an improved version of the previous one, then I saw that the edge of the hood of the model is copper and not yellow, so I made the fourth. My favorite is the third.
