Misha: I'll have to ask you to fix his HP-bar height, it's kinda high.. other than that, it works well, and fits

Finally it got released

Edit:

Here's what I've noticed about this model, the hair mesh on his back is really, I mean REALLY distorted during animations (you might wanna fiddle with that a bit more).
Ears, yes longer could've been a LOT better but eh it's your call. I expected better hands but they do their job for now, also even a mere symbol on those blades could be enough.

As for the animations well....the main attack ones can be a lil' bit faster, same for movement one...also his butt is quite kicked during walk animation (mesh slightly distorted).

Those are just what poked my eyes, the rest is great as it concerns me. It was about time that a proper Demon Hunter be made

Overall I'd say 4.5/5, it gets a 5/5 anyway.

Very cool! Great work and thanks for sharing!

Love the animations. Good work.

just love all your models, such consistent quality

I try.


About the additional attack animations, I remembered a model from XGM that someone tried to submit here. A bad WoW rip of Illidan, with custom textures and everything. I wanted to recreate two of the attack animations I saw from that model, and keep the original style of Demon Hunter attacks.

The Alternate Form is so wonderful, it only uses a team colored textured. :') The Warglaives on the other hand are something new, very cool. Animations are subtle. 5/5

wait a second.. you did it already?

Yes. I'm that good.

Better than blizzard one.

Ohh dear.. this model might be the first that i'll have to send to await an update.. His hair not only does not have the the proper length, (no problem about the lack of ponytail) but it's rigged kinda funky and twists in funny ways with some anims, instead of being a bit more free-flowing. His head feels too thick, chubby and big-lipped for an elf, making him look more like a war3 villager.. you could try to slim his head-shape down a bit more to a more like the original, but i'm just doing the talking here. I'm actually happy with his ears, because war3 always exaggerates them, but they too could be a tiny bit longer. Next, not too sure about you but i saw some funny clipping between the pants top and pants top fur, so that too could be fixed

His death feels way too generic and it would have been really better if he retained his ritual-seppuku-like anim. or at least if he fell a different way than the rest

Now for the alternate form; it's the horns and wings, man, I really feel that you didn't make those accented enough.. I don't really know why you didn't try making the wing-limb just a bit more shaped like an arm, with a bit gnarlier 'thumb' the rest would have been really fine.. And horns, why wouldn't they also feel gnarlier and curved like they are on normal TFT illidan? they would definitely made a scarier impression.

so.. those are my thoughts, what say thee?

nope.. no..

I pretty much agree with everything Misha said. I also gave you very similar criticism earlier on your profile.

That Alternate Attack O.O Is Epic
Face Look Flat, Spell animation have Some Clipping (Or not?)
Hair Seems like Stick into The Body

but the Alternate Version is Well done xd
I rate 4/5
(The Animation looks Rushed made)

Now I get why Blizzard is makin' those HQ models...
Seems like they want to hide their shame

This is great and much better than blizzard's demon hunter!

Very cool your making nice awesome models that is a lot better than the blizzards, but I still respect Blizzard.

Great model
Inner Demon Unleash

One-texture wrap makes those twisted midget'ish proportions that you love so much more noticeable.

He looks like a chubby man painted blue, rather than a ninja'ish elf, like an original demon hunter.

It was 13 years ago.

Love it,alternate anim is a killer 5/5

The blades could use some work and I prefer the vanilla "suicide" death animation, otherwise, kickass! 4/5 for now.

I would have awarded director's cut, if I could) Model looks epic. But please do some work on the weapon. It looks blurry. Try to experiment with a different texture to it. I'm sure you can find something better. I would also advise to add any symbols on the round shields.

Wow, this demon hunter really let himself go. You should try making him lean in more on the attack animations(1 to 3) this will make them have more umpf. Give him a better talk alternate animation, make him shake his head a little, or make some glow appear. Fix the empty void that is his mouth, give the guy some teeth and stuff. Try detaching his hair from his body and animating it(that one is a bit hard). Remake and rewrap the blades, as they are they look thick and dull, they should be slick and sharp and add hero glow to them. Change his feet to hoof when he is in demon form(detach his feet as a separate geoset, add a separate hoof geoset and swap the two out during the morph animations. If you separate the wing segments at the bottom they will look better. Make his body, arms and head move slightly during the walk animation.

Personal preference does not equal valid criticism. I'm getting tired of having to stress this point to people that cannot grasp it.

so.. even if everyone might consider me a jerk, i'd say to people to get out of their darn boxes

It looks pretty neat as it is imo.

I agree.
I like it as it is.

Do Keeper of the Grove next!

Looking very cool! Im gonna miss the panda on the blade

Seems even better then the original demon-hunter of Blizzard Entertenment ! Good job !

Question...is it possible to work the demon model to work with the high elf sorcerer?

Also excellent model

What do you mean?

I assume he means having my High Elven version of the Blood Mage morph into the Demon Form of my Demon Hunter.

It's pretty amazing, and since this is generic, will there be an actual Illidan version in the near future? The one in TFT.

I love it but he needs his top hair piece
