    Okay. But is she human? I might do her with gold armor since you know sun. and white cloth if you'd like.

    Wasted* you mean :cgrin: It is still spent. But yea I agree. The problem is I also have to work. There is time for fun and there is time for work (not that work can't be fun, just less fun). And what I meant was that I was spending too much time having fun rather than working..

    Ah just trying to keep up drawing daily. It's hard with school and distractions like games and modding to be honest... I wasted the last 4 days modding games :X ... should have drawn.

    These may not be of the top-notch quality, but the models are downloaded a lot and people have been asking for fitting icons.
    Approved without rating.

    How do you think I could make them better ?

    Hey Apheraz! Literally 99% done with your request xD I just need to figure out this really annoying, tiny bug :(
    morbent
    Yea I mean, I get the reason why she became evil and started killing other races, not caring much for her undeads either, just wanting revenge, but she would have been a real hero had she persisted. How often do you see a person survive through such torture and having his people killed, yet still keeping his morality on check? She just reacted like most people would - from so much torture turned into revenge itself, let her humanity (elfity?) vanished.

    Btw, Sylvanus. I see what you did there (and I mean her name in the mpq not the perverted quote some might think of..)
    morbent
    Anywhore xD? Wtf.

    Well, regarding Sylvanas, look at her Warcraft 3 lore, if she had become a good hero, a truly good undead leader she would have been a very cool character, a bit like how they developed the orcs - they look evil but are just like any other race, they got good and bad guys amongst them. With Sylvanas, well, I am not much familiar with her WoW lore but in Warcraft 3 she was pretty evil, and while she was an elf she was just a basic bitch. So basically, being led by revenge doesn't make you good. Instead of caring for her people she is more like "how do I kill that motherfucker".
    Oh and she started killing other races, being an undead now. Like a typical undead bad guy.

    Also, regarding right and wrong, it's much like good and evil, it is subjective but there is a generally accepted objective view (like killing is wrong, normally, but killing Hitler is arguably wrong or right (or good or evil for that matter)). So when someone says "good" and "evil", it's technically like saying "everything generally accepted by the human kind as good/evil". Of course the world is made of grey, like, everybody knows that, but it's not only grey. It has black and white there as well. It's the whole spectrum. And there are just some things which CAN be described as evil: a psychopath raping children and then murdering them.

    So lets go back to Sylvanas: Revenge? Arguable whether it's good or evil, but it's a rather basic desire. Being able to led go of revenge and do the more important things, like caring for your people and the new undead race, now that's something. And did she really have to use a poison arrow on Arthas to make him suffer? Sigh. Even more basic. Instead of just getting the job done and killing him. I think revenge can only be justified as long as you're not doing it for yourself but for the others. Killing Arthas would be a good deed to do, you would save many.
    Lets look through what she did after she freed herself from the Lich King: Possessing other races with which you lived in peace before - now that's evil. I can't point out an undead character in Warcraft 3 who isn't neutral-evil/evil, even Kel'Thuzad started out as a neutral dude but ended up being evil.. and that's what I don't like about the undead race in War3. It's underdeveloped. Humans were obviously going to have both types of characters, orcs were amazing just because they had both types (and were much like humans), night elves kept a cool neutrality, unique to their race and very fitting (as they are forest people who have lived over 10 000 years and have wisdom at their side which leads to that balance they have - neither too evil, neither too good), demons were pure evil, as they should, but undeads.. eh.. Sure, they had more reasons to be evil, unlike the demons, but we never got to actually see a good character there. I was very disappointed that Sylvanas was not this character, as she seemed like she could have fit for that role perfectly. I feel like she is a wasted potential.

    Moy
    Hi Aph! Who's gonna approve some pending skins in the skin section? Kwaliti is inactive, I guess.
    R
    It's about the contest, can you manage and approve it? (Although the poll isn't done till oct 15)

    Hello? Are you there M'lady Lucent?
    R
    Are you busy? I need some help from an artist mod like you.
    AyeKantSpel
    I see activity... haven't been around in a long time and last I had seen you were leaving. It brings me great joy to see that you are doing well and have returned.
    morbent
    Hey Aph, if a texturing contest was to be hosted, would you be willing to join it?
    Stefan.K
    Hey, remember that thread of yours about customizing the Warcraft units? I replace most of the models, but for the Lich it doesn't work, Kel'thuzad either. In WE it looks okay but it doesn't work in game. Can you help me solve this?
    Mike
    Hi, Apheraz Lucent. Can you, please, improve a little bit (if it possible) my spade icon? Make it more shiny and improve wooden parts. And other improvements at your discretion.

    Well, that is a good idea (about the ribbon). Also, the shoulderpads, I'll do it too. Thanks Aph! :)
