I am always excited by packs of awexomely-underrepresented factions such as this; building models in particular is a tricky one to find.

I admit, though, I feel a bit bad that I got so busy this term, because otherwise I would've been making many more critiques on models (such as these) in time for changes to be made.

That being said, while I applaud all the effort that has gone into these, and am appreciative of the unified style that they all portray, I have to say I have a hard time seeing them fit in-game. The biggest issue is that of Team Color; Warcraft buildings are usually pretty blunt and overt with their Team Color (Alliance & Horde especially), and when it's not so overt, the rest of textures tend to have at least two major color schemes (UD with their dark purple & gold-brown, NE with their leafy green & woody brown).
These buildings are, instead, graced with minimal TC and overall drab gray textures (with the occasional foray into the gold-ish gray script on some of them).

There are other things I could say, but they veer more into personal taste (the architectural style, stuff like that; I'll admit, I have planned a Nerubian race for a while now & I always thought the coolest "town hall" would be a dark spider-y version of this piece of work :p...). More importantly, I realize that I've kinda "missed the boat"; you're not likely to want to go back & change all these, especially after so much acclaim. I'm just one voice, after all.

But anyway. Who knows, I'll hold out hope. And I've seen some of your newer stuff, and you are constantly improving. So keep on keepin' on. : )
