DonDustin: good idea, but yeah...too simple atm

Simple, but pure win.

I would suggest changing it around a bit more (perhaps a penguin driver?) and making it more icy, but I like the idea (of course I do, I suggested it)

this is only a sample, if a few people get behind the penguine idea, ill definatly improve it...

EDIT: Changed the Catapult around abit, gave the penguin eyebrows, having a custom texture made

Needs to be more penguin-ish

• Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the weapon of Demolisher 0000 <gen> using units\critters\Penguin\Penguin.mdl
• Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the chest of Demolisher 0000 <gen> using units\orc\Peon\Peon.mdl

I see no point to this model since it is achievable this way. Just my opinion.

Neat idea! I'm getting cool ideas of this! "Penguins vs Global Warming"

Keep it up!

Now, for a simple review:
Originallity:
Modelling:

Hoped you got something from my review!

Penguins win
Epic "for the lulz"-model. I agree with the other guys posting; it could use some more ice/snow or something. Like... Smearing some snow on the wood, and add a couple of icicles? Just a suggestion though.

It still doesn't look like you changed very much though.

i only really added a penguin, then i went to work, and just got home, thanks all for the critism, and i guess you all want some sorta snow, and ice? ill see what i can do

Do not delete it, please.

Why should you? It is a nice original model. It can be used in a escape map, or polar race, or fun minigame, or whatever.

It's a cool model.

Penguin launcher WTF?

EDIT: You know what would be good? to remove front wheels and put sleighs, and to rewrap the whole model in some other skin than orc. maybe something.. Ivory-ish?

Lalalallalalaa

Should make it more like the penguin is sitting in the catapult, would look more "realistic" and that way, it's a little more customized than just attaching a penguin on the catapult.

Sorry, but it sucks, like Tawnttoo already said can it be easily done with triggers.
And there's no really modelling effort in it, just put the penguin onto the catapult, takes 2 minutes.

are you a mod, no you are not :/

I'd suggest reworking the post, Chilla..

Now, to be honest i don't think instant negative critic has it right in here. Post constructive critic instead. You don't know what he might change about it? So you could say that he needs to change that and that before you would approve it. Noneless, that comment is not acceptable.
About the triggering, yes, it can be, but read his description first. He'll either delete it or change it, so either way, you can't rejected something that is not yet done. Help him improve it instead.

Badly made, but nice idea!
As others I suggest using the ivory. It will make it an "arctic" look.

Idea is awesome, but you should make it overall better, then it will be worth downloading.

Right now 4/5 for the idea and outcome.

Lol it can't be improved because it's totally useless, we don't need such an model, do we?
The only thing he should do is completely remake it with custom wrapping and putting more things on it, so it can't still be seen as the original catapult.
Untill then it's unacceptable to get approved.

I don't understand what you find so good about this tiny model edit.
Also you aren't allowed to upload WIP models.
We have the Modelling Forum for that.

Stop being hostile. End of case.

You're right, this not worth to waste more of my time.

a wise choice

ha, reminds me of the Starcraft II Galaxy Editor where you can program units as projectiles in your mods...

You also can with the Wolrd Editor

Why would you want to kill penguins? I don't like the idea coz I like penguins, this had better be a sheep launcher ^^

No one say their gonna die of this.
Perhaps they land somewhere safe, like a hee-stack, or in a bunch of snow?

it even moves with the missile of the orc demolisher and does not consume file size + it probably works with all catapults

cool idea though but useless model...sry

@why kill penguins?



Case closed

@The model sucks

The author is well aware of this and just made this really quickly - and actually wanted to see if people liked the idea to remake it - not sure submitting it was the best idea, but whatever - Drak said he'd delete it later anyways.



If you put a layer of the icecrown tiles over this model (or a modified one) you could give it a more icy effect. The sleigh blades would look great, and probably some form of penguin driver or something else articy would look great.

All of the above
