DonDustin: you got some sexy abs there :>

the whole model was deliberated from its concept till its execution.
The mesh looks very nice, the animations are very creative and run smooth and the unwrap of this model is magnificent

 

[Soul Theft]

epic one

 

[VampireofBlood]

spamming us with awesome models

 

[Piwlady]

Daaamn, you're good. Epic!

 

[Malcous]

Very nice model , 5/5 =)

 

[Traxamillion]

all around great model.

 

[Sir_Astral]

Mate you are making alpha models, can i order something special ? it should be simple for one grand-master modeler like you

 

[Darkmoon Hero]

Awesome. Awesome to the max.

 

[The World Is Flat]

There is obviously nothing more awesome!

 

[cookies4you]

Man this model is the best, I love egyptian mythology and this one is to damn cool to be true, rating:

Infinite/10

 

[Dj0z]

Looks great indeed. You got your much deserved +rep (even though i dropped it at the scimitar accidentaly lol.)

All i wish is that you'd have chosen a "fatter" egyptian god theme (if any... or maybe not egyptian?..) so that i could use it in my map, but oh well. Epic work anyways.

 

[tee.dubs]

why did this not get dc? most dc models have a certain "feel" to it, and this one certainly does. it seems the choices are a little inconsistent imo...

 

[real138]

i agree with tee.dubs this should have gotten DC its an awesome model dont see any flaws. i looked through the directors cut this model is better than some of those models. But ya happycockroach great model i love it i might use it in my map. credits given ofc.

 

[MGCǂSpectre]

We don't have many egyptian models, so nice one. This is actually the best of them.

 

[Zpider]

I don't know why, but when I see four arms and a tail I immediately think of World of Warcrafts Rock Flayer. Did you base your model on the Rock Flayer?

Because:

Rock Flayer - Walk Alternate
Son of Anubis - Walk

Rock Flayer - Stand Ready
Son of Anubis - Stand Ready

Those animations look quite similiar.

Also even if this is a great model, I do not think it deserves a DC and think it should stay at Highly Recommended.
Reason being the attack animations and the weird mouth.

EDIT: Agree with chilla killa though, the death animation is pure win.

 

[chilla_killa]

Awesome model, nice anims, especially the death anim is pure win. I love the death anim
5/5 +rep

 

[Kuhneghetz]

I still think the face has a goofed look. Maybe add some teeth to make him look more intimidating.

The mesh and the animations are neat otherwise, and I like how you used the ingame textures.

 

[Alfagar]

How do you know he looks like that? Maybe he's very fat (obese anubis son xD)
epic model!

 

[HappyCockroach]

Did you base your model on the Rock Flayer?

I didn't know Rock Flayer.

 

[Hubcool]

HC, you son of

I tried to find something wrong with the model and then tell you to improve it but meh, i can't

Animations are all smooth and stuff, you even used teh emitters at some point. It uses in game textures so it has low filesize. Concept itself is awesome, it's like the first egyptian (unit) model we got here. I'd almost say like the other guys that this deserves DC, but since I know shiz, I wish you luck lmao

 

[Misha]

I see the face is still a bit "Duuuh!"
nevertheless, a pretty awesome model it is :3

the animations would have been with a bit more fluidity IMHO

and also... nothing bad with the current anims, but wouldn't there be better if he has an animation where he constantly slashes in front of him with those sabers? like some whirly slashes, almost like choreographed "8" swings in front of him and behind? In my opinion, the model is "born for" such swings.

 

[Panda]

Great work.

 

[varsaigen]

VERY nice death! This is a very well done hero. :3 Great job!

I have to say though, the mouth doesn't move at all, which kinda makes the talk anim a bit bland. :/ Perhaps you could justify that with a bit of a spirit essence foaming out just barely, if your not going to have the mouth close or move? :/

Since the beginning of the Modelling Contest I thought about doing a moving statue thingy... its concept got quite away from this, but the idea was that constantly-unshut mouth.
Talk animation isn't much of a talking thing. It's more like the Son of Anubis launching its cold gaze at whoever dared to give him orders!!!
_{I tried to make his mouth move, it even has a bone to do so, but it looked like shit. Mouth moves in spell animation only, what is a shout/breath thing.}


Thanks for the feedback guys!

 

[varsaigen]

ah. I see, so it was the cold gaze of "How dare you give me orders" even though he ultimately does so Ok, that mkaes much more sense. Thanks for explaining :3

 

[boymanhidd]

tite

 

[Misha]

somehow the soundset of that undead-moving-statue-unit or however is called, seems perfect for this model :3

 

[Sham]

Wow

Perfect model, 5/5 anyday

 

[The Dark Master]

Could you make Anubis?
