A simple yet pretty useful model for custom maps. Based on the warcraft 2 and wow warlock spell "eye of kilrogg", this summoned unit works pretty much like a shadow or a mobile sentry ward.
It's basically a sentry ward eye with adjusted collision, a bit of movement here and there, a portrait, and a walk animation. You can use either the sentry ward's icons, to reduce filesize, or my own. The model is optimized and weighs only 70kb. It uses no custom textures.
Uses:
-You could either make it a warlock/ogre magi spell.
-You may find a use for orc races without trolls/taurens (draenor orcs, wc2 orcs, blackrock clan...), to replace sentry ward or farsight (the Seer hero spell).
-You can add an item that has x uses of this spell.
Not recommended:
-It doesn't have attack animations, so making it an attacking unit isn't a great idea.
-While it can have a shadow, I recommend setting art shadow image to none.
Update:
The model now has a ribbon emitter -that is, the model has a "tail" when it moves-. I set his height to 0, so you have to add height manually in WE (around 100-150 is fine).
Some animations have been tweaked.
Stand-2 has been fixed
Update (2/10/21):
