Hi peeps,
Here's a little model of mine, I spent a lot of time in it and I'm quite happy of the result
It's supposed to be a dragon/hydra monster, concept is taken from Final Fantasy Tactics (see here, sorry there aren't many pictures of it on the web)
Basically, it's a heavily reworked model of WC3's black dragon. Skeleton has been redone from scratch, and I used hydra's animations, plus a whole custom set of flying animations, using the "Alternate" tag.
Known issues:
- Changing flying height for flying animations will cause some of them to seem a bit off, especially the death animation. Unfortunately I can't see any workaround for this.
- Filesize is a bit heavy, I apologize.
- No teamcolor except for the portrait background. My plan was to use it as an enemy creep so I didn't add some (lamest excuse 2016)
Hope you'll like it anyways!

I'm probably younger than you
Well I can suggest you to create an icon for them, three heads in an icon are better than one (I know, the pun is bad)
Good Luck

Ah yes, an icon...To be honest, I'm no good at icon making, the best I can do is take a screenshot and turn it into an icon, but it's kinda lame ^^"

Yup, the file size is a bit heavy.
Although I know it is a creep unit, maybe it could look better with team color.
Good work!

neat flying anims but also a bit rudimentary.. I would suggest in trying to make them lill more lively
this reminds me of the tri-headed dragon model i have in limbo, lol.. I still haven't managed to complete it the way i wanted xD

Very cool! Lots of hard work went into this, and a flying hydragon is a sick concept. I kinda feel like the orientation of the heads/necks is a little wonky; like the two extra heads almost look like arms (or rather, the way the necks & heads are oriented suggests to some two giant arms/hands on a black dragon/hydra body.

Noice.
This looks great, could be used as a Boss in some maps or just an Upgraded version of a Dragon/Hydra.

It looks like Ghidorah in Godzilla series if we use the bronze dragon's skin replace the black dragon's.

Good model, but Imo hydras are supposed to be a giant snake with multiple heads according to Greek mythology. They do not have feet (because it's a snake) and they definitely do not have dragon-like features. Overall the model is kinda nice, and has a lot of animations.

MODERATION
Awaiting Update
The model has some pretty visible issues ingame, during the walk animation the wings 'snap' down at the end of every animation. Also the neck texture is too repeated, try using the full stretch of the dragon rather than just repeating segments.
Other than that it looks fine.

This is not quite an easy model to properly animate.
