Epic Owl Scout (Model)

Simple, but nicely done. The need for being a model and not a skin being only the addition of a portrait isn't so well justified actually. But it has a very small filesize and anyone can use the skin only if they import it to the Owl Scout path. Approved.

This is pretty cool (nice to have a more "heroic" Owl, befitting a Unit almost), and matches the icon well.

I heard in Chat you were looking for a better Portrait Camera, so 10 seconds later in Magos... *points to attachment*

(I also edited the Textures; you were using "war3mapimported/EpicOwlScout.blp", and that made it not show up in Magos. I edited it to just be "EpicOwlScout.blp" for ease of use)

I think it could have been done with textures in-game.
In addition, it's an owl war, then you could put other animations, like NightElfsRaven or WarEagle.
Even so, it looks like a Owl God, and the icons are so cool man.
4/5 :infl_thumbs_up:

I am not exactly a modeler, if you could add those animations it would be cool.
Most of the work is in the skin xD, the rest is MDLVis, I would like to mod mdx, but I don't have access to MAGOS or any decent model editor xD

Scout!

On-topic: Fantastic looking model for something so simple, and the fact you made the texture path like you did for the sake of convenience is a neat little gesture that I'm surprised you don't see more often. I agree that a good attack animation would be very welcome, so I would suggest getting someone to help you with that. X3
 
Excuse me! Good work but why don't you add more animations to it: attack, spell, ...

Because I don't really know how to make 3d models or edit them! else I would do it, if somebody is able to do that, then that's welcome, I mainly just did an skin for it, and I probably will make some edits on this skin if I use it again
