This bundle is marked as recommended. It works and satisfies the submission rules.
Core hounds are massive two-headed fiends of molten magma and without question one of the most powerful beings the plane of fire has to offer.
They are found in the deepest caverns, volcanoes and dungeons and are often accompanied by other denizens of fire pledged to serve Ragnaros, the Firelord.
Their unique appearance makes them easy to distinguish and their crushing jaws, fiery breaths and their naturally superheated bodies make them a challenge even for the boldest and strongest of foes. Born of fire, their bodies naturally emit an immolating aura that can fry skin and melt sword and shield.
The green variant in outland has been known to be broken and domesticated by both demons and warlocks but can also be seen wandering the landscape as hostile creatures or guards to forgotten artifacts or areas.
Custom icons available in red and green and only one custom texture needed per model.
Please credit me if you use this model.
Enjoy!

Another absolute banger of a model. Explobomb you are knocking it outta the park. Shame about the custom texture, but what can ya do. ; ) Also I'm kinda surprised it has bones, to be honest.
Looks splendiferous & acts great. Kodo animations?

Should be funny to create an attack slam animation, where the beast bite the target with his two jaws

Thank you for the kind comments!
Always loved the design of these and always felt they would fit well in the Warcraft 3 universe. Especially since they're
still from the early era of WoW with the old warcraft feel to them.

This model gives me a special kind of nostalgia, because I've used a Core Hound model converted from World Of Warcraft in one my first maps that were never released. Anyway, it's good to see that someone finally recreated this doggy in Warcraft 3 style.
Both mesh and textures are great and I really like the work you've done with Kodo's or Lizard's animations.

The hounds do really bite hard ;D
Works in-game. Approved!
Additionally, I also suggest to reduce the amount of flames on the back.

This thing is legit AF on god cuhz. But when you shrink the model down lower than say 1.00 the glow/fire on the back burys the model. :'( still going to use it though! lol!

Any chance we could see a scaled down "pup" version (maybe just the normal one devoid of armor or some such)? I'm using these as a replacement to the base salamander creep and they work quite well for it, but currently lack anything that really fits for the salamander hatchling. I'd be willing to fund something like that or even the tiny 1-headed version as well if there was any interest.
