I like how you've used the in-game textures. They look great.

Looks really cool! Just keep in mind that when attacking, the foot comes forward before the swing, not after. The foot steps forward when the arm draws back. This adds more momentum and force to the hit as the body then has to shift forward. It should also step forward with the opposite leg of the swinging arm. I've made this mistake myself.

You know, all of the anims, were tested with my real body, I guess there were too much belly fat in my real body and I have no knowledge of martial arts. So that explains why there were mistake in the anims. Im glad that someone could detect the flaws in the anims, will try not to repeat these.

Its a tough job to animate those feet so it stays on ground D:

FOR THE OTHER COMMENTATORS, THANK YOU!

Wow, looks really cool and well-make. The textures are good to. What kind of program did you use to make it? 5/5
Most of the mesh (except head) were made with oinkerwinkle vertex modifier. The head was shaped via MDLVis.
UV wraps (except for the chest armor) are made with oinkerwinkle vertex modifier.
The chest armor is wrapped via MDLVIS.

Animations are made with MDLVis with little assistance from Magos.

Particle works are made with Magos.

Geosets added with Oinkerwinkle Geoset Merger.

The model is very good. And, i also like that you made a test map so that i don't have to create it myself.
Everything is absolutely good.. but.. the walk animation kinda sucks ass. It's the only thing i don't like.
5/5 though! And +rep (when i spread some).

Flawless model (i finally managed to put the model on my wc3) great amount of details, great animations, perfect for horror/suspense maps, highly recommended

Also i think you should make a new hero based on this model! It would blow minds away :goblin_yeah:
