Footmen

Footman model, the body is a modded Militiamen. The screens show the process to made it, Helmet the campaign one with polys added to make the golden sections, a visor with similar work, shield... The sword is a rip from the of the millions of WoW footman circulating on the web.

The model uses Footman/Knight/Garithos and Headhunter textures, Portrait animations and camera angle from the bandit, the face uses Villager man 2 skin, and Medivh teeth.

Added Mounted version "The cavalrymen". This model uses the Knight animations modded to fit model. While is a bit fat in size 231Kb per model, it have everything in one package. Even the drinking animation to preserve the footiness.

His helm needs to be re-textured and re-scaled. It's a nice little model though. Sorry for double-posting, I'm not used to the new system yet:)

Changes done, now all of them perform well. As I said, it's really a nice pack. Approved, and keep them coming! :)

The helmet texture doesn't match with everything else.
And the shoulders are somehow ugly.
The shield are not attached well.
And what is it that are attached to the back of his butt, it doesn't really fit. You should round it more around his belt.

The black version is so cool!
But I couldn't say the same about the white version...
As @B22 said, the helmet texture doesn't match with the armor.

Ok, the shield position, cloth tail, and normals in the the golden sections of the helm and shoulderpads have been corrected. Next helmet texture, about the scale, in what sense, in the texture one, or the mesh size.

Most of the newer Footman have the helmet being this big, and protecting the neck area too.

Looking interesting. Howevah', the horses could look more edited than that plus the sword is too short to hit anyone while the footman is on the horse.
4.25/5.

The horse was lazyness on my part, didn't want to remake the wheel. About the sword, in proportions is larger than the normal version, but thinner that is why it looks smaller. For me was an issue of keeping it consistent to the Footmen model.
 
A nice pack. They all look decent and work well in-game. The spell animation was a nice addition. There's a little issue though. The mounted ones have their attachments messed up. Check the Overhead, Chest, and any other that might be faulty. I'd have them approved already, but this attachment issue should be fixed first.

(Also, please only have in screenshot those that actually depict your models. Some must be of old versions, you could remove those from the bundle, put them at a post in the thread instead)

Vainilla villagerman or those customized versions optimized for attachments? If the later send me the model.

The villager man many animations (optimized for attachments), the one with ~55 animations, not the one with 200+. Feel free to trim old animations so that its just the halberdier animations. Appreciate the help mate, giving you credits in my map.

A brilliant pack. Very useful. Man, I wonder if there is or will be a version of black footmen that is either armed with bow and arrow or boomstick? I'm having trouble to complete a race but it was halted in pursuit of search of such ranged ones.
