HaradrimSwordsman

This is the swordman of the Haradrim from Lord of the Rings, which i made for the Hive. Unlike my previous Haradrim, this one got an entirely new headarmor in order to bring more variation among them and to make it easier to distinguish them. The headarmor is exported from WoW, but it uses ingame skins. I suppose he can be used as any other oriental soldier either. Feel free to use it in any way!


EDIT 1: my thanks to: Sin'dorei300, Khil and grunt for telling me about a minor issue. So the shield was made smaller and the head bigger.

EDIT 2: my thanks to TLI-Inferno for the good advise of making the shield thinner. Thanks to him, another change to the better was issued.

EDIT 3: Changed the pants into black cloth ones. I watched once again the movie (it was running yesterday on TV), so i noticed that most of the Haradrim had dark pants (either purple, black or red), so i came to the conclusion that it would fit more to make them black cloth pants rather than the so-far brown leather pants.

EDIT 4: just applied the "new optimization method" at all Haradrim models i made. Filesize has been reduced and quality slightly more increased. Also replaced the death sound. The previous one was from the Nightelf Assassin, the current is the Bandit, as with all Haradrims. :wink:

Shield is too big, i wonder how strong he can be to hold that stuff!
The red mask is kind of shiny too much, i think you should pic black or purple color for it.
Some how i like his pant!
 
That shield is way too thick! It's heavy as heck! Also, you might want to try to find another texture to wrap to the shield, because that just looks way too blurry.

Still, it can be useful, and the blur isn't too much of an issue in-game. It gets a 2/5 for now, but a 3/5 if you will make the shield a more reasonable size, so that it doesn't look so awkward.

Edit: 3/5.
