Hooray!!! :peasant-cheers-back:
Thank you so much, Navy! You made my day with this news 😄
I’ll be really looking forward to this models! It will be interesting to see many gnolls, now there will be units for the whole tribe or on the main characters roles :peasant-thumbs-up:
Btw, how did you fixed problems with his bones? I thank it was quite hard 😵‍💫

If you are on Hive Discord, you can find the entire conversation there. I was trying to manually attach the vertices to his bones but it wouldn't save the model no matter what app I was using (MDLVis/RMS) so it turns out first you have to split the geosets a lot. The new model's entire mesh consists only of 1-2 geosets.

I will try to replicate the Gnoll group from War3: 1 Melee with axe, 1 Ranged with a Crossbow and 1 Caster
I have similar plans for the Sethrak Race and some Maldraxxus Mutants

Wow! Sounds really hard and interesting! You did a great job! :peasant-thumbs-up: Thank you so much!!!
Do you have any ideas on how they should look? If you want, I can also think about it today and send you my options
Btw, the gnolls will be orange, right? Or you want another variants of skins? :peasant-smile:

I will inspire from wow/war3 - the model above has all the geosets so I will just mix together different combinations

I've seen the weapons you sent me, they are really nice, saved me some time

I kept the orange skin like in the screenshot above

RatzRatzzz
Ok, that’s nice idea!
I'm glad that the weapons I sent you were useful :peasant-smile: I really like crossbow, very detailed and authentic one
Btw, I sent you a gnoll concept in PM a while back, so if you like it, I'll be happy 😄
Thank you so much again, I’m really very grateful to you!:peasant-thumbs-up:

yeah, I see it now, it fits more as a melee version
RatzRatzzz
RatzRatzzz
Yeah, colleague, that version is for melee :peasant-smile:
P.S. For some reason I've heard very little about Sethraks and took a closer look at them thanks to your portings. They're a very cool race, they look interesting and their models can be used in many places, they're ideal for jungle creeps

yeah jungle, maybe barrens / desert too, I would say. Blizzard didn't try to focus much on them. I just want to make couple units from them. Was thinking maybe a Shaman too, I could port some shaman gear and attach it, I'll see about it later
RatzRatzzz
RatzRatzzz
Sounds nice! Btw, I also tried to find sethrak doodads, but they’re absent :peasant-thinking:
But maybe Blizzard will focus on them in later addons, who knows :peasant-smile:
RatzRatzzz
RatzRatzzz
Thank you very much, colleague, I will definitely have to watch it
In general, BFA (I guess they were added then) was very pleasing in terms of new races and decorations :peasant-smile:

Could you find a staff for the caster gnoll too? maybe something that was added in the same patch with the other weapons you gave me, they all share the same thematic
RatzRatzzz

Ok, I’ll take a look on caster stuff when I get home :peasant-smile:
