Finally checked it out, and honestly there's not much to say anymore; your models are works of art that look excellent as what they originally were (Warhammer) while simultaneously fitting in so well to Warcraft 3. Your animations are the best part; so much life & bounce (particularly appreciate the Attack-2; few people bother but a 2nd Attack animation adds great variety, and I can't think of another "overhand spear stab" anim like that in the game). It simply begs for an animation transfer.
If this is meant to be the opening salvo of a Beastman compilation... Bring it on. ; )

yeah, warcraft really neglects normal melee spears
its a shame how humanity's most common weapon is underrepresented in fantasy
You have answered on your own question.Honestly that was something that really struck me from both Way of Kings (Brandon Sanderson) & Wheel of Time (Robert Jordan)! Maybe it's just me, but with stuff like Warcraft I was conditioned to see swords as low-level, basic, "everyone had it" kind of weaponry. Where in reality, swords were (are!) usually pretty intense (in terms of requirements to make, buy, upkeep, etc); whereas the lowly spear was the true "weapon for the common man". Little more than a sharpened stick can basically serve as a spear, all the way up to the fancy stuff (but even then, it's got to be much less than a sword; only the head/tip has to be forged from metal, while all the rest is just wood!).
So yeah.
yeahI love this. The custom animations are especially fantastic. From your description, I assume you would be okay with other modelers potentially using them in their own work?![]()
Good to see you return to your amazing models to polish them! Are they on linear animation you had to fight with again?update:
fixed sanity checker warnings, texture tweaks, portrait tweaks and fix, proportion edits

I've noticed some gutz missposition here also. And the 'Spell' looks more like 'Spell Throw' but that's just nitpicking, meh...
