Author's Notes and Trivia:
  • 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.

Which side are you on?

Even if this model it's basically about tinkering with existing material, everything works well in-game and both are great additions to the database. Good job making both of them have functional portraits in both forms. Filesize is a consequence of complexity. It wouldn't be much smaller than that.

Ooh... I like it. A model *and* a poll? How daring. :p

Personally, I think I prefer the idea of a "plant druid" more than an animalkin... But your animal-version looks better IMO, and it reminds me favorably of the Beta Archdruid hero, which is always a plus in my book... Your plant-form looks kinda weird. So I voted Animalia. : )

Just a small minor suggestion; Could you perhaps make a hero Kul Tiran Druid? Like the Malfurion (Wildkin) model but it uses the Kul Tiran DotT as the base model with the face being the Kul Tiran Keeper of the Tides for the head and the Morph being the Sapling of Wind model intsead, @Ujimasa Hojo?

Hello! I am making a custom campaign and I would like to ask for a favour:
Do you think it is possible to get this as a full model, I mean, not as an animation of furion but as a separate model, all by itself?

I would do it myself but I know nothing about modelling.

Thank you!
