This bundle is marked as recommended. It works and satisfies the submission rules.
There are not enough Gnomish units on the site to have a Gnome category!
I learned about the 3D viewer on Wowhead while I was modeling, and I imitated animations like Death and Attack and added a few more to the bot. The model is a little rushed but rushed with loving care.
-Updated sleep mode
-Fixed disconnected mesh. Added Bomb Bot
-ILH pointed out that I can put (explosion translate) directly into the particle emitter instead of a bone, which I, of course, tots knew obviously. It was not an issue, but I have sneakily fixed it to appear like I knew all along cause I did. And it has nothing to do with pigeons so don´t ask.

A really cool, fun and unique model. My only suggestion would be that the sleep animation could probably be a bit more interesting as it looks unanimated at the moment, perhaps something that makes it look like it's not activated but scanning.

Thank you. I didn´t picture the unit as neutral hostile. The Sleep animation was thought of as a deactivated version for gameplay/sneak mechanic, temporarily disabled, cinematic, or Gnome quirkiness (Alarm bot sleep mode). I also thought it was funny to add a sleep mode to it. I am not sure about a sleep animation that looks as if the bot is scanning when enemy units can walk right up to it with no issue as long as it isn't attacked but maybe I am misunderstanding your comment.

I am not getting a lot of ideas on it, but I´ll think about it.
Edit: It is animated, though hard to notice.

Heck yeah, more Gnomish models is great. Good job recreating this guy in the Wc3-style. Love the wide variety of animations as well!
//EDIT// - Perhaps to Footman's point, something small/simple/subtle, like a little low flashing red light (like the sleep mode on my TV)? Just something to clearly indicate it's not dead/unanimated?

Is the bomb a bot or the bot a bomb?
