Archmaiden

The Archmaiden, Heroines of the once proud cities of Dalaran, and Quel'Thalas, protectors of arcane secrets, and wielders of near godly might.

Locked away in their lofty towers, they scry the world searching for imminent threats, and dangers.

Upon perceiving even the slightest alarm, they don their enchanted armour, and take their vigilant war to the ground, mercilessly bludgeoning any fool brave...or stupid enough...to put their frail, worthless bodies underneath their swift, heavy, bone-crushing staves, or else if the solid smack of ironwood is not enough to fell the insolent wretch, the fool is soon eviscerated by the strange powers of the Archmaiden's finely crafted spells.

This is like one of Callahan's models - unique and very fitting in the game; it's a mage, but it it isn't just person+cape+staff; it has details (ponytail?) that make it unique.

The head looks too big for the body and her feet too tiny.
It looks out of place ingame.
The portrait camera is displaced and needs to be higher and a bit further away.
Ideally the camera would be looking a bit down on her, hawk perspective would makes her look more innocent.
The talking animation is could use some more life as well, some head bobbing or something, it's quite stiff.
With some small improvements i think the model could be 5/5, but as for now it stands as a 4/5.

Feels like another model that hasn't been rated according to ingame looks, it doesn't mesh well with normal wc3 units.

Everyone has opinions. I value opinions that come from people that know what they are talking about.
People that have not uploaded anything related to what they are talking about are hollow to me.

This model in particular has been uploaded more than ten years ago and general quality has increased in the section.

Ratings are useless and overrated anyway.

Though, you have to agree the guy has a point about the proportions, especially the legs.
