There is some clipping with the arms and these models could need a little bit more team color to them.

So this is absolutely fantastic. I love it. That said, I would kill for a version where those shoulder pads have team colour. Additionally, the "Frankenstein's Monster" pose, although classic in terms of WoW golems, always looked derpy to me. A version where it's standing more like the main preview you have of the model would be very welcome.

Nice, I like this.

The Stand & Stand Ready animations seem identical, is it supposed to be that way or a bug with Hive viewer?
Sort of just me working in the confines of the original Siege Golem model

It has a Stand and Stand Ready animation which is identical from the waist-up, but a different stance from the waist down (barely noticeable with the frankenstein arms on this model, but it's only 3-5 keyframes)

I recognize I was momentarily blinded by the brilliance; upon further reflection, I'm very much with Deolrin & others that this is great, but really needs more Team Color (primarily the shoulders, I imagine). I also agree with Deolrin that the pose shown in the preview image is far superior to the 'frankenstein' pose it has at current (especially during Walk, the arms being forward seems so strange to me).

To reiterate, though, fantastic model. Been waiting for this for a long time. : )
