I know this is a Gimli skin, but the quality is outstanding and i even use it, even though I don't use it as Gimli.

http://hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/skins/914/

(While we're on this topic you know skins sort of over-write each other right? Could it be possible you meant models?) :bored:

http://hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/skins/190 - Pretty cool looking skin

http://hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/skins/189/ - By same author, both look very good.

(There is a way to have skins per model, but if I recall you need to export the model, change the paths to the skins and re-import them, but I guess if they look good they probably are a smaller file size then models)

Anyways here are some models in the case that you meant models

http://hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/models/948/ - Dwarvern Paladin

http://hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/models/551/ - Dwarf Statue

http://hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/models/639/ - Awesome Dwarvern unit model.

(A skin for that model: http://hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/skins/178/ )

http://hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/models/1060/ - Dwarvern mage

http://hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/models/1589/ - Dwarf Rogue

(Skin for that model: http://hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/skins/276/ )

http://hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/models/2042/ - Dwarvern Clubber

http://hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/models/1967/ - Dwarvern Bandit

http://hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/models/2721/ - Dwarf w/ Hammer

http://hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/models/626/ - Dwarvern Slayer

(Skin for that model: http://hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/skins/907/ )

If you think the file sizes on model's are big there are several tools that I use, which reduces the size quite highly, without losing any quality, they are:

http://www.wc3campaigns.net/showthread.php?t=86878 - BLPalletter - Reduces sizes of skins

http://www.wc3campaigns.net/showthread.php?t=83416 - MDX Squisher - Squished the size of a model

(The size of these doesn't actually show, the only way to see the size saved is if you compare a map with compressed to non-compressed, but it probably saved atleast 500 KB's of data in my map)

I also use this: http://www.wc3campaigns.net/showthread.php?t=82558 Wc3 Image Viewer, and open the image, and re-save it at 75% quality, I don't ever notice a difference, but it saves a lot of space, sometimes it over halves the size of a skin

(Also keep in mind that World Editor itself slightly compresses the file)

Sorry for the babbling, hope I was of some help to at least someone. :infl_thumbs_up:

Probably some useless way to try and get more attention drawn to this thread, he probably knows that the more people want something, the more likely it will get done! Well, that's just rather dodgy, can mods and admin check the IP address of these two users by any chance?

Adiga didn't even post anything here really, just sorta said thank you... and if the hive is the #1 site of the top 200, joining within 4 days is nothing, specially with how many join, also is there something wrong with having 2 accounts? Its only stupid really, you can bump yourself once a day or so I believe, before chriz will go crazy on you,also back on topic, guys just look at the model section for units or type what you want, you'll find some pretty good stuff there
