Drakkari Frostwarder Troll

This bundle is marked as useful / simple. Simplicity is bliss, low effort and/or may contain minor bugs.
This is my first shot at modeling/skinning.
It's an edited model of the Shadow Hunter with a Ice Troll skin and it is not a hero, it is a normal unit and has a death anim.

Also, to make the pathing for the skin work, erase the "war3imported" part from the "war3imported/Icevoodoo.blp"..

and i'd suggest redoing his decorations to fit more with the ice, or drakkari trolls, which is aztec-like, and with stone, fur, bone, skulls..
and do make his frame bulkier quite a bit.
just to give you inspiration, ice trolls have gods that are; polar bear, snow leopard, cobra, mammoth, rhino, and a winged serpent

I'll probably do that in an updated vesion.
This was just a test to see if it worked and if it was atleast decent, I'll maybe add up some more armoring or something..
Possibly add a different mask, or a different weapon instead of a glaive

You should consider making the mask and armor resemble this.

Good work on what you already have though!
 
I'd give it a 'needs fix' because it really looks too simple.. and doesn't really have any 'drakkari' feel to it.. I mean.. drakkari trolls are actually bulkier and have more bulkier in body, face and tusks, just because they're built for northrend cold

EDIT: and also they have their own sense of decorations, which is somewhat less feathery and more towards skulls, teeth, stone tablets, and such
