And the base is crooked. I mean, these are really minor things but they could make this model significantly better. I'll approve it when you tweak it up a bit

So no one thinks the birth anims a bit much ?

I think that the birth animations is pretty neat actually. The model itself is a great addition to the High Elf race.

The model is well done, I only found some minor flaws which I - if you feel like having extra time to work on them - will state below:

• The death animation would feel more realistic if it had some kind of explosion or sound; right now the altar is just sinking smoothly through the ground.
• It would feel more natural to have the default rally point set next to the altar (like all other WarCraft III-buildings have) rather than in the very center of the model.

I think that's all I could find in my quick check. Once again, a very neat and useful model. =)

I havnt checked this ingame but I can see quite clearly from the picture that theres a line running through the middle of the statue where the textures dont match, other than that it looks good and its realy small size 52kb.

+ rep, I asume the red areas are team colour?

The statue's cloak does seem to be cut for some reason. The High Elf Barracks symbol (blue thing) could be replaced with something else. Lastly, I think you should cut on the building in front of the statue. The stairs and their base are too large... wide? I don't know the appropriate word, but notice how the Altar of Kings has only a few stairs and nothing in front of them. You could do the same here, because it doesn't look good and reminds you too much of the High Elven Barracks model.
