Lizardman Chosen Of the Sun

This bundle is marked as useful / simple. Simplicity is bliss, low effort and/or may contain minor bugs.
The Lizardmen Tribes, every year, chose the firstborn child of that year to be raised by the Order of the Sun. The Order of the Sun is similar to a Paladin or Crusader order, in the sense that its members "The Chosen of the Sun" are regarded as both mighty warriors and holy men. When the Order receives the child offerings, they raise the children as the next generation of Sun Chosen. The Chosen of the sun are regarded as warriors, but rely more on their intellect and gift with magic rather than physical strength, they are famous throughout the Lizardman Tribes for their ability to summon swords made of pure sunlight in combat.
My second Lizardman hero, I intended it to be melee, but intelligence based in-game. I know that probably I shouldn't have used the same base model as my other one, but I don't think that this idea would fit as well on a different base model.
Updates
1.01~Rewrapped mantle to different texture to make it look less elvish, removed some particles to make his spells look more light based rather than fire based.

The idea is pretty nice, but some minor issues decrease its quality a little bit. Actually, there are 2 major ones among them:
  1. the cloth between his leggs shouldn't float through them. This makes it look unnaturally.
  2. between the top of the pants and the belly there should be a belt or piece of cloth (like a sash or similar to a headband). Trust me, these are minor thingies that give the model a more ''finishing touch''.

IMO, it's O.K. as is, but it could need at least these two thingies fixed. :wink:

About the color change for the shoulder thing. I was attempting to give team color to the shoulders, that is why the original texture was kael's, but people think i should give it the same texture as the other lizardmen. I suppose that I could do it. The belt buckle idea sounds promising.
