Death Knight on Frost Wyrm

A death knight mounted on a Frost Wyrm. Not much to say about it. I recommend to use it as some type of advanced flying caster unit (no mesh changes to make it badass enough for a boss). Give credit and blah.

I'm making a more customized, detailed and badass version, but why not upload this as well.

UPDATE:

There it goes, guys. He's smaller, had feet and Attack Slam animation.

Looks promissing.

The frost wyrm could be bigger if plausible, and give it an option where either the dragon or the rider attacks - I already see how could I use it than.

totally agreed with Sithril, please make the wyrm bigger, or at least make the DK smaller, since actually in Wc3 history the wyrm is GIANT, and arthas isn't even a paw of a wyrm, but of course if you make it that realistic, the DK wouldn't even be visible :p just make the DK a bit smaller please :D!

The dragon attacks in Spell Slam. I could rename it to Attack Slam.

Making the wyrm bigger would... make the death knight sit on his enormous spiked ridge and be dismembered before even lifting off. And adjusting the wyrm's animations to a resized mesh would be a pain in the ass due to the horrible way Blizzard named the bones.

The point in making the wyrm so small is that, well... It's the Death Knight who casts spells and such. And if I make him smaller/the wyrm bigger, the death knight would be unnoticeable.

This model looks promising. The idea and concept is great.

I agree with him. Best if you put 3 attack animations:
1.) The Death Knight attacking in melee using his sword (Good for dog fights)
2.) The Death Knight attacks as though he's throwing stuff.
(Death Knight attack)
3.) The Frost Wym breaths out ice.
(Frost Wym attacks)

The model itself looks a tad dodgey. Either that's a very big man or a very small Frost Wrym....either way, the proportion of each needs to be fixed. That aside, the concept is very good and I wouldn't highly protest against abandoning the idea. It just needs a little more work.

Highly epic, and a very low file size, i give it a 4/5 the only problem i saw was a little sketchy on movement, but otherwise nearly perfect
