(Diablo 1 version)

Model by: Dan van Ohllus (aka Kuhneghetz)

A famous boss from an optional quest in Diablo 1, who's raising an army

Model descriptions:
Mainly based on the skeleton model with various modifications.
Shoulderpads, sword, gem and spikes are made in scratch.
Animations are from the Proudmoore model.
Includes an external portrait model with animations from Paladin.
100% ingame textures.


YOU MUST GIVE ME CREDITS IF YOU USE THES MODELS IN YOUR MAP!!!

Feel free to edit this model for your projects as long as you credit me for the model you based it from.

Enjoy! ;)


Message to Icefrog and the DotA Team:
If (and I said if) you guys are intending to use my Leoric model in your DotA AllStars map, please show some respect by putting my name in your CREDITS QUEST TAB LIST. And if you give that excuse about the credit list being full, I'll respond you by saying this: Make an additional credits quest tab list and put the rest of the author names there, simple as that. It won't kill your map.

Very epic.
Only question is: is Leoric in D3 too or why is there a D3 logo on the background?

I dislike the style of all your models, and I have no idea why the fuck they always get 6/5 and I really hope that this will never be added into Dota.
 
WOOT! My first Director's Cut?! Thanks, Frank! =D

@Zerox: The model was made because I wanted too. Whether if Icefrog will use it or not is his own decision, so I don't care about that. But if he adds my model, I will expect that he gives me proper credit/acknowledgement in the map.

@SpiritTauren: I would prefer Kuhneghetz, but most mappers credit me as Dan van Ohllus, and most wc3 users are more familiar with that name. So go with Dan van Ohllus (though you may add "(aka Kuhneghetz)" beside the name if you wish).

@Super-Sheep: Opinions are like assholes, everyone's got one. And in this case, there are many people who like the style of my model.
But of course, you're entitled to your opinion.

I've never played Diablo before so i can't tell how good this is compared to the actual D2 Model, But IMO this isn't quite DC Level. It's 5/5 for sure tho.

I think this is the best model in the face of the earth. Unless someone makes an even more better one based off D3.
