Helghast

A neat little helghast soldier based on an awesome concept image i found, scratch modeled in 3ds max. This is made to go with my LAR rifle.
(Link: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/models-530/sta-52-assault-rifle-146600/)

This model has 12 animations including a spell throw animation, in wich he tosses a grenade.
The "Stand Hit" animation is also very usefull for helghast metal concerts.

The texture is 100% freehand and i designed it specifically to be somewhat user friendly incase someone wants to make a skin, and i kept the gas mask intact beneath the scarf so that you may apply alpha to it without ending up with a hole in his face.

Attatchment points:
origin
hand, left
hand, right
head
overhead
foot, left
foot, right
weapon
chest

Known issues:
*The hand left attatchment point is not perfectly aligned to the hand, and should not be used for stuff like weapon attatchments, those would naturally go on the hand right.
*The boots clip through the cloak about a milisec every walk sequence, this is not visible from a rts camera perspective.
*No team colour, but i had a nice idea for this, so it might be implemented in the future.

My new favourite model man and very usefull for my project I hope you make more Helghast Variations :D. 5/5 from me!

Who are Helgast?
And what are those buildings in that picture?

Anyway, whatever those guys are, they look awesome... and not only Helghast... they look like combines from HL2 or any other kind of bad guy elite infantry...

Well yes, you are right about the head. His neck is also a bit short. Though i don't have the ability to fix that since the model is both rigged and animated. I guess it's ok since big heads and fucked up proportions are kinda part of the whole wc3 style. ;)

Oh what a great comment... Love that! It really is WC3 Style, would be awesome though if Blizz released Wc4 with upgraded graphs but still, Wc3 style indeed.

Really nice and useful model, ++++ rep, more models like this pliz :)

Looks great and I'm too lazy to test, but IMO and by first look, it'll work out fine. +rep just because I feel like it too =D

MM a beautiful model. But, the spell animation.

You have to switch the grenade throwing hand to the left one. When u use the right one, it kinda looks like hes throwing the gun.
