Interesting derivatives. They look good and work well in-game. A personal suggestion of mine is to make the centaur spell and channel effects be fiery, or something else than nature, to differ more from the KotG. Anyways, approved.

Somebody already submitted a fire-based centaur based on the Keeper of the Grove. I've decided to keep my centaur version plant based. If I recall lorewise, some centaurs have rejoined their Keeper and Dryad brethren. So you can think of it as them going back to their roots.

Why do you not try making more Dreadlord derrivates? I think it will be very useful considering dreadlords are used quite a lot in many maps and there are only 2 models to choose from.. 3 if you count that beta version.

With the Centaur and Corrupted variants of the Keeper of the Grove, can you maybe make a Dryad derivatives pack next, @Ujimasa Hojo? You don't necessarily have to make this right away. A Corrupted Dryad as well as a Centaur Dryad made in your style would be pretty damn nifty, I understand that a Centaur Dryad already exists on here but I digress.
Or with the existence of two Satyr based models, maybe a Satyr derivatives pack?

Please don't double post, use the edit button, but you actually didn't post something new
Delete one of the posts, and type something about the model(s) instead of just an image that no one knows what it has to do with the model(s)
Sorry:(.

Can you do the Archmage Cenarius (the Archmage version of Keeper of the Grove model, which wears Dalaran suits)
