Evil Jaina (Lich Hero)

Ok everybody, this is my christmas gift for you this 2018 :) I have done this model based in Frost Lich Jaina (Hearthstone), but can be used too as a generic female undead Necromancer/Lich/Wizard Hero. I hope you enjoy it.

Up: thanks to tillinghast for the suggestions!
Fixed normals, add book spine, fixed blood and dissipate event objects.
Not merged because it's easier to edit for me.
"Bone_Hand_LArchDruid is neither deleted nor changed to a bone instead of a helper" I tryed but I don't know exactly how to do that without break animations so stay as it is.

Try to use her with this awesome icon!

If you have any suggestions about the model or how to improve it just leave it below! thank you! orz

Sorry, but if you don't show me some WIPs I won't beleive this is your work. It's clearly an @Ujimasa Hojo Forsaken Jaina with changed robe and staff. Not many changes to count as your creation + you didn't mentioned the original creator.

What do you mean about WIP's? I'm sorry I didn't try to copy @Ujimasa Hojo Forsaken Jaina. I even didn't know that he did a unit like this before. I feel ashamed now :(

Not it is not mine. He uses separate in-game and portrait models and even put in additional meshes.

I found Hojo's model, it's really nice: https://www.hiveworkshop.com/data/ratory-images/114/114872-588682ef91def83947da78fd5db4da86.png

The problem here is that Sylvanas' Skin is very convenient to use with Jaina's Model because the model and the skin match in a lot of points (face/body) however I improve the model in the face (Sylvanas' Skin have a weird face in Jaina's Model) also change the cape to Scourge faction. The scepter, book is for Necromancer with new particles when Jaina's casting or attack. Also I added a punk chain of Kel to her hip.

Thank you so much @Ujimasa Hojo Sama for solve the missunderstanding too! orz

it's amazing how little effort was put in this
I disagree, judging from the screen the wrap of Sylvanas' skin is well done and the details he added may look simple but they're consistent with wc3's style, he added the right amount of stuff to differentiate it from Jaina's normal model. Overblown edits imo tend to look really bad alongside standard models, this looks like it fits with them. Just the book alone gives it a distinctive Scourge feel, not to mention the skull on the shoulderpad. It's a good example of simple but effective. Yes, it's pretty similar to our feudal japanese lord's edit but it has more personality.

Simple doesn't mean bad. Not to mention way worse (imo) model edits have been approved on this site.

yeah it's a well done texture swap, seems like only face is rewrapped
and her eyes weren't rewrapped after texture swap, so they're using bits of sylvanas' cowl now
normals on book, chain and hipskull are inverted, i'm guessing he doesn't know how to change that so he just made the material two-sided instead
skull on the hip you can barely even make out in most of the situations because it's covered by the cloak
book is missing a spine but you can't see it too so i guess it's okay
some geosets should be merged like the main body and right shoulder or the two skulls
there's three unused textures in the list
event objects weren't changed to undead blood splats/dissipate sound/death sound
Bone_Hand_LArchDruid is neither deleted nor changed to a bone instead of a helper

yep, fits right there with standard models

And that's why I said
judging from the screen
I'm not gonna install Magos' on yet another pc just to take a close look at a model you've dismissed as a "no effort edit" in a couple of seconds.
