Rifleman Lordaeron HD

This bundle is marked as high quality. It exceeds standards and is highly desirable.
+HD
Riflemans of Lordaeron are the main rifle unit in the legions of Lordaeron since the end of the second war, as it turned out, muskets can well tear off the limbs of greenskins and other unpleasant creatures, which in turn is very interested in the command, they in turn agreed with the dwarves of Ironforge on the supply of new muskets at (not) a reduced price, staffed most of The riflemans units, but a little forgetting about the quality of training of soldiers. Rifleman is armed with a musket with the uncomplicated name " Shoot that orc!"which is in service with the entire Alliance where it is acceptable. Uniforms: Brigantine, helmet with a good view, sometimes a cloak with the symbol of the Kingdom, gloves and boots of different lousy.

Attention

Please do not forget to change the name of the portrait, as the name of the portrait must be identical to the model name + _Portrait at the end. For example: model "Footman Lordaeron_Medium_L" then his portrait should be such "Footman Lordaeron_Medium_L_Portrait". If there is at least one difference from the model name portrait will not work.

Well, model is good and useful, but this vanilla animations looks kinda ridiculous.
I think that Herr Dave's Reikland Handgunner animations or any other custom ones will fit more.

crossbows and guns wielded by heavy plated units make me sick badly, totally no-no for me
good job with model and texture though, don't get me wrong, I just don't like idea of this unit but execution is really ok

Remove the shoulder plates, they make the model looks ridiculous with a massively wide chest/shoulder and tiny legs. If u remove them i think the model would look much more human keeping the lordaeronish/heavy feeling.

Btw, could you add the Lordaeron sigil to the cloak?

THis alright! Did you use 3DMAX for this?
No, I didn't.

Thank you! I think that the standard animations look quite harmonious.
Legs are too small. Overall it's a decent model.
Thank you! Corrected
Finally an armored rifleman :D Great model man !
Thank you!
Cool model, but i agree, you should fix the proportions, the legs are too small, maybe you can made them similar to this? Arthas Menethil (Paladin), Daelin Proudmoore, and Derivatives , Ujimasa's Gilnean Hunter model uses the rifleman animations too, but has good proportions for a human model.
Thank you! Corrected

Thank you! Maybe I'll make a leather-armored version of the model, without the shoulder pads, but the musket will still have to be left.
Un-dwarf him :eek:

His legs seem too tiny compared to his upper body
Now he human physique =)

Btw, could you add the Lordaeron sigil to the cloak?
Sure why not.

I tought u were adding the Lordaeron sigil, you updated it but the sigil is not there. I was cheated! xD

Btw, did u discarded the option of a shoulderless version? In case u want to keep the shoulders in this one ofc.

Oh, I do not always have the opportunity to create content, the work makes its own adjustments not to mention the family)

I will definitely make a version without shoulder pads, lightweight, and with the symbolism of Lordaeron.

Waiting for the crossbowman with lordaeron sigil ^^

When is it going to be ready?

I can't say for sure, but I plan to make three more models: a spearman, a crossbowman and an archer. After that I will make human versions of the main troops.

Thank you! I was thinking about the wars of the new Alliance, maybe I will even start doing them after I finish With the army of Lordaeron, but I can’t promise anything. I am very limited in time.

I want to leave only two versions: In heavy armor and in light (without shoulder pads), with the symbol of Lordaeron and without it.

Maybe next week.

I'm really curious to see your map!! You've been asking for many variations in a short time, do you have a thread or post about your project? 0___0

Of course, you can join my discord to comment about the map with other people, know what im working right now, give your ideas or suggestions, be a beta tester or arrange games in the future:

Join the Fall of Lordaeron Discord Server!

Also, you can see already done job, pics and systems ingame in this thread:

Fall of Lordaeron | Page 31 | Brigand's Haven

I may end creating a thread here in the hive... I have been working like around a year in this map and is close to its beta release :)

His face looks like a polish husar more than a warcraftish footmen xD. You could just put the footie helmet on it and save working time and suffering. The rest of the model looks cool (Lordy sigil in the shield pls :p).

His face looks a little odd, are those 2 separate skin textures?
No, it's one texture, but really the color is different.

Archer will have a non-standard head, too, but the Pikeman and Spearman will have the head of a footman.

U are working really hard to give different options, wow. Idk wich one do i prefer more, if leather or plated. Maybe the light armored one would look better without the shoulder plate, but is cool anyway.

I just have one thing to say: spearman is coming.

You are missing:

Rifleman Lordaeron_Heavy_Alter
Rifleman Lordaeron_Light_Alter_L

Im not asking for them, i just noticed they are not updated. In case you have already created them and forgot to upload those too.

On the other hand, what i would trully coment is that the L in the cloak is quite tiny in all models. Compared with ur others L in the other models and shields is minuscule, i think a bigger one would fit better. Also, ingame the units are small and the symbol wont be seen too clear, making a hard cool work unnoticed.

Thanks for the heads up. Unfortunately, I have no way to fix it now. Regarding the letter "L" on the cloak, Yes they are hard to notice looking down from the height of the game camera Warcraft, maybe later I will solve this problem.
