This bundle is marked as recommended. It works and satisfies the submission rules.
In order to fulfil a request by Homor posted Here
I decided to create a Grimtotem Tribe Tauren Chieftain. For my inspiration I used Orno Grimtotem an NPC from WoW. The skin is 100% freehand except from the skulls that dangle from his horns and the inside of his mouth as I saw no reason to re-draw these.
There are two versions, one with warpaint and one without a separate model has been included if you wish to use this with the original Tauren Chieftain in your map. To use the separate model simply import "GrimtotemChieftain" and "GrimtotemChieftain_portrait" as well as the skins, the texture path is "GrimtotemChieftain.blp".
Remember to give credits. Permission is not needed for minor edits or use but if its something major please ask and please ask if you're going to upload something that uses this texture.

The skin is not that bad, it's pretty accurate for Grimtotem tribe appearance if you feel like you need to get as close as you can.
My issue is the skin could need some lighting above to get some clarity, especially if you use the non-warpaint version. According to the wowpedia itself, Grimtotem tribe could use any weapon they see and their warpaint could have been any color. The Tauren could have a different kind of Axe and not simply of an existing axe of the Tauren Chieftain model.
I will hold on for rating as this skin still in need for adjusting.

This is simply a custom skin for the in-game Tauren Chieftain, but I do agree with you that there could be more Grimtotem skins and models. Those could make excellent tanky creeps.

Approved.
It's a bit dark, though. Perhaps some more highlights?

If you want to create a custom Grimtotem Chieftain or even a whole custom faction of them, this is what I would download.
Could it be higher quality? Sure, but this is WC3, original skin.
Is it just a reskin? Well kinda yeah
Do I like it? Yes.
Any technical criticism is not within my knowledge hehe

High Elf & Blood Elf Swordsman (Re-Classic) would like to have a word.
And here I thought this was one of my best skins

I think Grimtotem's better tbh. Although my best skin imo is probably the Baradin Watcher

It is very, very good. So good in fact that I would like to know if you got or make one of the regular taurens or the spirit walker maybe?

Somehow I can't get the Grimtotem Chieftain Warpaint to work. I changed the path to
- Units/Orc/HeroTaurenChieftain/HeroTaurenChieftain.blp

Have you tried looking at How to import Grimtotem Chieftain ?
Every model, skin and icon file has such a feature under its title.

Yes but it still does not work, other skins I have installed are working.

Oh wait, you want to use it on the game's model not the custom one? Not sure about that but for the custom model the correct paths as the site says are:
war3mapimported/GrimtotemChieftain.mdx
GrimtotemChieftain.blp
The first is the model and the second, its texture.
