Arthas Menethil(Death Knight on Foot and Mounted)

[StonemaulMidget]

RE: Unmounted Arthas
Have him stab and half-sword with Frostmourne.
Also, have him wave Frostmourne spin himm around with blade at hand, and then have Arthas shoot a Death Coil spell from the runeblade to cast Death Coil.

cool！The most handsome Alsace

 

[ShadowMidas]

Awesome!

 

[Xelos]

awesome model and agree with that arthas and death knight are so similar, blizzard dont change icons for them too

 

[dujinyuan]

Arthas is my hero.No one else..

 

[Pokemanharald]

First impressions from the pictures alone is very well done, the details on the armor and especielly the face is incredible. I love that you included the option for an mounted and foot version of the model. I would myself use this one over the original, but that's my personal preference. Good work, keep the great work up!

 

[Footman16]

This looks really good! Classic Arthas finally has a model befitting his status. As you say the similarities between the standard DK and Arthas are just a bit too much in vanilla Warcraft.

 

[DarkePacific]

Huge model file size for something that kinda already exists in game, though I definitely really like the idea! Maybe if you could use more in-game textures it might reduce the size a bit.

@DarkePacific
The thing is, it's not just a retexture, I adjusted the model's geometry to the textures + I changed the hair / eyebrows and partially the geometry of Arthas's face.
If it was just one texture, then I would put it in the skins section

 

[Villagerino]

One strange thing for me that the skull on his shoulder pad doesn't look like a skull. But the model looks fresh and can add its freshness to the game, especially the face of the model, love it! Geralt would put a like for the hair

@StonemaulMidget - Arthas foot: updated animations "Spell" and "Rack Channel".You can check)

Also taken from this model by HerrDave: Old-school Lich King

Most of the changes are by @HerrDave - the texture did most of the work here.
I suggest you edit the other Arthas model you published to the media section to use this texture because that one is looking more custom made than this one.

 

[LarsLushmane]

@Stefan.K
I'm not denying that the textures and the two animations are the work of @HerrDave.
Even more - the description states that the texture and animations are his. I only made versions of just Arthas Menethil, not the Lich King
I have no intention of stealing @HerrDave's work. I will be glad if he says that the texture and some of the animations belong to him. My goal is to create a variation of the Arthas model closer to the classic style, but different from the usual death knight

I'm not saying you want to steal his work, you did mentioned you used his texture. I'm just saying more changes would lead to better looking model.

That's why I mentioned this model of yours: Arthas Death Knight
Give that model the texture from HerrDave and you will get a better looking model that is different but also fit in game.

 

[LarsLushmane]

@Stefan.K
I just warn you that I have no bad thoughts)
At the expense of my model - thanks. Honestly, I tried on the standard, but as you can see, Arthas's face turned out to be creepy Yes, I think I will do so, later I will use a new face texture for Arthas, if the author of the texture will allow me to do this in the future.

Then please do that in the model's description for all your models and from now on.

 

[LarsLushmane]

@General Frank I would love to, but I do not know how to correctly mark the author of the original resource in the description(
UPD: I added him to the authors of the model, because otherwise I don't know how to mark his work

 

[LGR]

Any plans on doing an Arthas' paladin version?

 

[General Frank]

Just write a few lines that your model is mostly based on his work. I think that is easy and fair.

 

[LarsLushmane]

@General Frank
Well, in fact, it is written like that, so you can understand that I am based on his work + he is now an author.
P.S: I myself notified @HerrDave about this model - he approved.

@LGR I think there are already those who made Arthas an excellent paladin model.
For example - @Asssssvi

 

[Mongolius]

arthas is just sus

 

[Explobomb]

Great stuff! You really captured Arthas iconic face, hollow eyes and expression.

 

[ILH]

Please add a collision shape to the Arthas on foot model.

 

[Sarsaparilla]

Upgraded portrait is cool!

 

[General Frank]

No updates in about 2 years.
There are also a ton of issues.

 

[EmirDaud]

really like this!

 

[Achille]

An absolutely awesome model,

A good and refreshing take on Arthas with solid animations and a great texture!

Thank you for including a mounted and unmounted variation for versatility’s sake!

 

[Orphiea]

Sorry for necro-ing the thread. I really like the model and I was going to replace the arthas model in the campaign.

I've tried to edit the local files and making the folder path for replacing evilarthas and renaming the new models to undeadarthas.

When loading into the world edit it shows the model without textures and all white. I tried to put the blp files into textures then into the evilarthas folder. it still doesn't load the texture. is there anything I might've missed that could make it work?

 

[BarubaryII]

Model is bugged, it causes the world editor to crash, im using version 1.29.2+
