GryphonRider.blp

This is my first skin than i upload to THW, for that reason I have decided to do it with the topic of THW.
In honor to the best War craft 3 Modding Site, this skin goes to Hive.

When i start this skin, this was one of the first i did it, but this has like 200 better version with a lot of impros and a totally remake.


History of the Skin

The old gryphon riders, were the elite for the dwarf, in the begin, only the humans of the alliance can give training to these powerfull heroes.
But, one time, The Hivers has started to train this great warriors. Then, the Hiver Gryphon Riders was enchanted with the force of the nature, and this mighty hero its the result of that fusion.

Some question, Hawkwing:
With "Feather up that bird body", do you mean leaves?
And will i be made it in the whole body?
Do you want the leaves of the type that the bird has in the neck or those that it has in the body (Of those small ones) ?
Please, answer thats questions :)
 
That should be good. I just tested it and it looks decent. I wont reject it, but I do want you to make some changes before I approve it. Add some colour to the skin and work on blending the lines on his face and arms. After that you should try redoing the eyes on the gryphon. They look incredibly cartoony in-game.

I should also note that I liked the original saddle. The one you have on the version currently uploaded.

I now it, iIf you look to the front of the gryphon, it seems as if it was looking at their nose xD

Sorry, but the saddle piece in the skin is used in the model to cover the front part of the dwarf chest.
If i put the Original (of blizzard) it will look weird.
But, if you say the original (that its uploaded Now) im think i will change that.


PS: Hope you undertand me XD


EDIT: 200 post!!!

The original one YOU created. The one that is currently uploaded. Not Blizzard's version. That would look stupid.
