MiniMage: Do you really need custom textures for that? I'm pretty sure that you could get a model look exactly like that using ingame textures.
Thus, please do. Also, blood, is that a hint to blood elf orb, or is it blood as in, well, red blood? If so, isn't it a little lacking in terms of blood?

Misha: it feels pretty good to me now, performs well, and it's useful. Approved

'IllidanMissile' ?
i think you should be changing the model's internal name to match the model's filename

 

[Midasowski]

It looks good but the name is strange

 

[Percivali]

name changed
do you guys think it gets approved?

 

[Misha]

not sure atm.. is it just a recolored 'orb of kil'jaeden' missile, or does it have some different flavour to it?

 

[Percivali]

I created it by text editing the mdl file,

 

[Misha]

well yeah, put in a bit more flavour to it.. maybe different texture for the ribbon effect, different effect on the orb.. maybe bleeding sfx..

 

[Percivali]

where can i learn how to add effects ?is there a tutorial on hive?

 

[Misha]

scroll through these http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/3d-modeling-tutorials-282/, i think some will be helpful, and note you which things to use..

 

[Percivali]

ok i tried to give it a more unique look and i think its better,is it better?
i used a new ribbon and used a customized star instead of glow
and its not a recolor of illidan missile any more

This is most likely too poor to get approved.

You should learn to use War3 Model Editor, with this particle emitters are very easy to do, just look up a few effects to help you understand how they work.

Quick tutorial :
- to open a model : Windows/MPQ Browser, then open any mpq and start searching for your model.
- to see and edit particle emitters : Windows/Node manager, particle emitters are represented by white arrows in blue boxes.

Try use in-game texture i guess?

 

[Splub]

Nice missile! 5/5! I love it!

 

[GaLaxY_256]

Not good but seems good.
Suggestion: Try to add effects, when death anim plays or blood around orb when stand anims plays

 

[Percivali]

It's no supposed to have blood it's energy

This looks much better than the one in the main screenshot. <3

It resembles Phoenix Fire but adds an orb.
