Manticore_Wip3

Ok yeah, yeah! This is really turning out quite nicely! All the parts are more or less fitting together cohesively. The TC's are interestingly placed, but not bad; the scorpion tail is striking (no pun intended).

It's definitely getting farther & farther from the Wyvern which is good IMO. A part of me is sad not to see a real big, impressive Lion-head (and/or lots of teeth); I don't know how hard that would be to make, and it's not present in every version of the manticore. Still, the dearth of solid lion models for Warcraft hurts. Also I get that it's already pretty Warcraft-y & you don't want to ruin it by making it too detailed.

It's hard to tell without a full 3d view, but I think I would personally want to see a much more buffed version; thicker limbs, bigger frame, etc. To me the Manticore isn't just Lvl1-3 Creep/T1 unit; more like a Lvl6-8 Creep/T3 unit.

What kind of animation set were you thinking of using?

wow, these model previews are looking amazing! will we be seeing them released on hive?
