Ogre Stone Thrower

A very old model of mine that I just happened to find in a folder.
Not exactly a masterpiece, but it works and isn't flawed.

An Ogre that throws rocks.

- uses in-game textures
- filesize: 130kb

Warcraft needs more standard units, with modifications.
or units like the Elite Rifleman.
QFT^2

Plus, everytime someone says "I'm makin' an Ogre race", I've always stood by the fact that the perfect Ranged Ogre would be a rock-throwing brute; an "Ogre Stone-Lobber".
Thank you, sir, for providing such simple excellence.

Why bother making super-edited clunked models from scratch when you can just edit an existing one slightly and still get original and awesome? Makes me wonder. 5/5

About the RockThrowing Ogre

Yes I think that your Idea is Good but maybe it will be better if you make him 1 eyed like a cyclops, keep the 2 heads just make them 1 eyed and the Idea about the giant rock held in his two hands will make him look even more Awesome! (I would do it myself if not for my incompetence in modeling!) hope you'll at least think about the idea.

Very creative idea ! But why no animated portrait ? You just had to take the basic wc3 one, don't you think ?
The next thing to do now is creating a missile for the ogre. I tried to take the ancient protector missile to make this model attack, but it sucks because the rock is too big :(
I'm sure it would be easy for you, or another modder, to make a missile like the ancient protector one, but smaller.

Would you please post the rock he's holding and the ogre's rock basket as an attachment to download? I'm using a weaponless ogre in my map to try and save file space, and if I could attach the basket to the ogres back, and the rock to his hand, then it could save some of us like 80kb.

Thanks in advance!

Yes!!! These are my favorite types of edits! There are a million uses for this piece of work, and the approach is so conservative that it is not at all out of place among the standard units of the game. Great job mate! ;P
