Rend Blackhand v3

Rend Blackhand model for request.
http://www.wowwiki.com/Rend_Blackhand

Modified Hellscream model. Sword, pads, beard and eyepath - scratch made. Most texture freehand. Green particle while attacking. Flag does not show properly in viewer - in game its OK. Give suggestions how can I upgrade him. Enjoy.

Update://
-optimised it, so it does not have duplicated materials and textures.
-added some shading on banner, but it's not much noticeable ingame, here how it looks now

-remade banner plane, so it does not look like its made of 2 parts anymore

It does not show properly in viewer, tough. And hell I don't know why. But I guess it doesn't matter, as it works OK in game.

Update2://
-optimised even more, so it does not have ANY duplicated materials and textures

Anyway, before I'll consider this model to be approved, you should fix the issue with the black body effect on some of the model's animations (can be fixed via Material Manager).
Otherwise, the model looks ok and work in game with good performance.

Rejected until updated.


Meh, I'll approve it anyway, since the model do works properly ingame.

I don't like it. He has no scar the armor and the weapon are junk.And He was a dragon rider.And he is from the black tooth grinn clan not from blackrock. My opinion 3/5

JokeMaster, your nick is very suitable for that post.

1.
The Black Tooth Grin clan was originally part of the Blackrock clan
2. http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/wowwiki/images/f/fe/Rend.jpg why is he wielding BLACKROCK BANNER? To piss you off? And does he have scars here?
3. Hell, how do you imagine hero on the dragon? And he was dragon rider only at the end of his life, do you really think he forgot how to... walk and fight at foots?
4. Sword and armor... [sarcasm_tag]yeah they are so crappy I cannot look at them, I won't find any worse over hive.[/sarcasm_tag]

You don't have to like it. Just find right arguments to describe why, or do not write anything.

Well, Amaruak it seems that most of the people like it and so do I. Just fix the glitches and all is well. Did you get my message concerning the Blackrock orcs?

love it great job, don't know wat jokemasters smoking coz it looks great. to joke: when posting about anothers work dont just say its junk, a thing called "Constructive critisism" is much prefered, and even if you do that, you still need a reason for your criticism.

Edit: BTW 5/5 :)

this is really good. perhaps you could make/ad an animation or something so he looks he's riding a dragon, like an alternate/morphing thing. Though i dont think it would be easy.

a little more ornamentation on the legs would be better though, and those extra animations would make it legendary...but still 5/5

I was thinking about mounting with morph actually. And I even know how to do this. But model size is big already, and not everyone need dragon mode. So why they would import, lets say, 300KB model just to use it on foots? ;) So I guess the best solution is to make just another model, version Rend on dragon, and if someone is willing - make mounting ability with "unit - replace" and some SFX. But right now I'm making other Blackrock units, as without them - Rend is not very usefull ;)

So, are you really considering making another model of Rend riding a dragon? Well, that's cool. Will you be using a normal black dragon or will it be Nefarion?

Rend doesn't ride Nefarion.

And by the way this is an awesome model you made.
Blackrock Clan is my favorite one and more units would be really awesome!
Keep up the good work.
5/5

I could of sworn he rode Nefarion. Oh, well, I could be mistaken. It doesn't matter anyway.

Off Topic: JimBob, the dragon he rides is called Gyth, who is a green-ish red dragon.

The model is nice. You did supremely well on the eye details, the flag, and the shoulder pads. The only thing I sorta dislike is that his boots or gloves have little to no fur outline. But it is a great model nonetheless, and I wouldn't be able to find a model to replace this one. 5/5

I have made model for REQUEST. Request was to make him gray, and so I did :p Read damn model description, I have posted link to what I reffered ;<
http://www.wowwiki.com/Rend_Blackhand
And he is riding dragon, he is boss in UBRS in WoW. About skin - every orc from Blackrock Clan that lives under mountain is gray.

@shamanyouranus - I already stated in description that it does NOT show properly in viewer. And it will never do, as I don't care as long as it's OK in game. And about materials... I will check it again, tought sorted everything.

Sweet model. It realy does look alot like the WoW model of Rend. I think the beard needs adgusted a bit cuz it looks kinda weird, but very nice job.:thumbs_up: Maybe you could make another model of a regular blademaster with that weapon weapon but with grom's animations later on. :) 5/5

Oh, so Rend cannot be an old orc? o_O Guess you have missed something. He appears old in WoW. And gray. And I AM getting pissy, as some "experts" try to learn me history of warcraft, and didn't even read wowwiki. :p (you are not the only one, few people PM'd me)

hello, HIVE..

i'm 13lade619 from TheHelper.net and i'm currently working on a map.

here: http://www.thehelper.net/forums/showthread.php?t=122716

-

anyways.. can i ask permission to edit the model's skin?
the shoulder pads and weapon are uber cool..
i'm making a chaos or though so i'd like to make the skin red.

or.. it would be more convenient of you released separate models for
the shoulder pads / weapon.

thanks in advanced./
