So:

Eye Candy:
Pros: It's great. Visually appealing through use of in game textures (Which are professionally done). The animations are smooth, taken from the Orc Warlock models and the channeling from what appears to be the DH model.
Cons: The particle effects on the channel should either be spread to the other animations (Like the Spell one) or removed. It's a lot of focus on one animation and adds to the file size without being used much.

Efficiency:
Pros: It's got a beautiful file size of 102kb. Awesome!
Cons: But the portrait size is BIGGER than the Model?! And one of the animations is useless... Fix that, it's absolutely killing the model's usefulness. Find the extra model pieces that're hanging around (There's a Team Color piece hanging off the side) and remove those to help lower the amount of bones.

:D Hope this has helped you.

Looks wonderful! 4.5/5!
2/2 Looks
1/1 Animations
1.5/2 Misc - Gives a good warm feeling. The one lacking thing is the very large portrait. If filesize of portrait could be lowered (or an alternate low-quality low-size one could be uploaded), this would be a 2/2.

Barbaric characters don't use crystals.
Who says? I really like this character, but there are things to make him above perfect like:
(1)Really pointy head is bad
(2)[a]He has a really big hilt to his sword...
(2)Why does the shaman of the tribe use a sword?
+rep al you nice people :)

Thanks for the model! PLEASE add Team color! it may be old but it still functions well for a basic dwarven caster

EDIT: Here is an edit of this model with team color.
