MODERATION Approved Looks great and works well ingame with a good nice looking set of custom animations and custom textures that really compliments the model.

Really glad to see this posted out publicly; let's see if we can get the rest of the Artist Contestants to do the same!

This was my favorite model from the whole Contest, so I'll just copy/pasta my thoughts from my Vote/review:

ART
+Wow. Just, wow. This was hands-down the best model of the whole Contest (ours included (sorry PROXY)). Just, nearly everything about it. The mesh, the texture, the Portrait... The plethora of normal & spell & Portrait animations (so expressive)... The glut of attachment points for ever conceivable purpose
...
+Dat animated texture! Nothing took this entry from "cool" to "WOW" like seeing that bulging, veinous abdomen pulsating away for the Leech Life ability.
...

~I can barely make a complaint, but if I were to, it might just be a tiny niggling 'eh' about the color-choice. I looked Silithids up, and they can be this garish shade of pinkish-red... But are often a more sanguine (ha) shade of green-ish blue or yellow-ish green or even a nice scarab-y blue-black-green. I just love cool colors. I recognize my bias.

This is a great model & I can't wait for it to grace my 'extended' Tavern. : ) 5/5

Just personally, I always found the red/pink variant to be the most iconic Silithid/Qiraji look so that's why I went with it.

Of course, I could quickly hack together a few recolours and upload them to the Simple section, if people want :)

Is there a way to add extra textures without uploading extra models to this resource (just thinking of filesize here)? Or should I upload them in the Skins section and try link it as an Asset?

Sorry for the trouble, not used to the new system, haha

Model doesn't seem to work for me, portrait works though. I've done everything as described in "how to import" said model. There are two textures with the same paths, only texture bundled with portrait works. Once i use custom path with one texture the second one can't be rewritten to said custom path (they are same). Once trying just texture bundled with the "main" model, it doesn't work. I have no idea why, maybe 'cause i'm using default WE?
