I think you should smooth normals, because they currently look very sharp. Even on your screenshot it's noticeable. Look at his head. And right forearm.

• There are a lot of warnings, issues and unused animation tracks with this model. You can see this here: Sanity Test
  You can probably get rid of the unused tracks with this tool: MDLX Optimizer . Just drop your .mdx file onto the blank site and will give you an optimized .mdx file back-
• The wrapping of the model needs a lot of improvements and fixing. Head, shoulders, chest and knees have very scuffed wrapping.
• There are holes in the mesh.
• The portrait model has a lot of misaligned vertices that tear the model apart during animations.
• Event objects are somewhat faulty. Check the footprints for instance. See how it is done correctly for regular wc3 models.
• The worst 'offence' of this model is the massive amount of quite useless polygons. 11000+ polygons for a model that is an edit of the grunt model is simply too much. The vest geometry could be modelled with less than 2% of the faces allocated for the geoset. Try to keep the overall polygon count of the model to less than 1000.

It is very interesting and cool to see an adaptation of Blizzard's other works, however the quality of this model edit is quite poor for now and does not meet the lowest standards yet.

Please fix the following issues:

I actually made the vest from scratch in blender and didn't know how to reduce the size. i will replace it with a new part.

Please do. Also fix all the other issues I mentioned.

• Attachment points are all on the origin of the model and not on the actual part of the model. Hand attachment point should roughly be where the hands are, feet attachment points on the feet and so on.
• The portrait plane moves with the portrait model and looks weird. The portrait plane should stay in place.
• The top of the head looks like a green cap and might need better wrapping and normal adjustments.
• The vest still need a lot of work. The parts where the vest connect to the rest of the model looks very crude and there is a lot of geometry clipping. You might also want to find a better texture for the vest and improve on its wrapping.
