Frankster :
Nice model edit and quite good line-up with the concept.
Works in-game and performs well.
Approved.

 

[sonofjay]

Looks nice, but 192kb for a model using a ingame texture is way to big.

 

[Mgeterno11]

Nice and cool arabian model, works perfectly in-game. Good job! 5/5

 

[JesusHipster]

Small head. Edit: animations actualy suck

 

[Misha]

the golden thingie on the pike isn't that well wrapped

 

[Verhalthur]

I love this group of models!
If they all get approved, you might want to make them a pack.

 

[Astromen]

looks cool

edit:

compress the model with MDLVIS, the model decreased much the size file

sorry for bad english

 

[Uncle Fester]

@ Misha: the golden thingy at the front of the pike are the tusks from the TrollHeadHunter. (--> same geoset as the pants) ^^

Small head. Edit: animations actualy suck

if more such feedback comes, i'll remerge the model with the Rifleman's anims, that may apply better. I just chose the marine for now as it was the first thing that looked attractive as a skeleton & anim donor

yeah i will, if they all get approved, the pack will also include the Haradrim buildings.

 

[JesusHipster]

How about a felguard animations?.. Or your own custom animations^^
Resize the head please.

Small head

It is not small.

The weapon does not look like a pike. A pike is not like a staff with a sword. It is like a needle, long, sharp and pointy.

 

[JesusHipster]

It's not small, if you compare it with real humans, but if to compare it to warcraft models.. Plus it has warcraftish body size and shit, so it looks just stupid in my opinion.

 

[Sin'dorei300]

The rifleman anims don't look good with this model, imo. The rest is good, i think!

Hell, YES!!! Great idea, dude. Thank you, will try that thanks a lot for the advise!!!

the Haradrim ''pikes'' (or polearms, however their spear-kind weapons are named) are more like this: http://media.desura.com/images/mods/1/12/11617/haradrim_lancers.jpg ....maybe i should rename him into Haradrim Lancer

I guess i should follow RetroSexual's idea of using the felguard skeleton +anims.

 

[Dinodin]

Omg another great LOTR-model. Awesome job This site surely needs more LOTR-models

 

[Animalpower]

maybe i should rename him into Haradrim Lancer

That would not be correct because lance is a cavalry pike.

 

[Adaethus]

It looks nice.

Now of course, we need some mumakils, orcs, trolls...

 

[Maximum_Evil]

he looks quiet old, but in the movies those haradrim soldiers looked kinda young

as said in the other Haradrim model's thread, there are Mumakil and also other WC3-LOTR models around the internet, but most of them are either slightly different than the LOTR originals or lack in quality. I guess we have some (LOTR-)trolls and Uruk-Hai around on the Hive. Haven't checked it that far. I just know that we don't have Haradrim (except from Callahan's ''mumakil'', don't want to insult or offend him, but it's rather a battle-mammoth), no Easterlings (soldiers of Rhun) and no Corsairs of Umbar.

yeah i know, the next ones will have face masks, so that the actual age of the face can be left to imagination The major problem is that there aren't many black-eyed younger guys in the MPQ. Admiral Proudmoore would be a possible substitute, but i think he has blue eyes and the Haradrim are supposed to have dark eyes.

 

[Radagast]

am i the only one that thinks these look more easterling than haradrim?

 

[Uncle Fester]

am i the only one that thinks these look more easterling than haradrim?

i guess yes, coz easterlings (Soldiers of Rhun) where having helmets and shields, not turbans. Besides, they were having armored cloth-pants, like this guy: http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2010/157/7/7/LotR__Soldier_of_Rhun_by_Nynir.jpg i guess the main feature that makes them look ''easterling-kind'' is the chest.

 

[Radagast]

i have just always imagined Haradrims to be more blackly clothed. Easterlings more Gold/brownish since Rhun was one of the richest "countries".

 

[Animalpower]

In the movie, I have seen them to wear only black and red.

nice pic. Very usefull as a concept

@ Animalpower & Radagast: mainly yes, my Haradrim are mainly having black, red and brown as colors in their clothers. Just take a close enough look The soldiers of Rhun are another story. The main problem with them is that they have a very detailed armor and there's no 100% equivalent for it ingames. I thought of using a mix of BronzeDragon & SpellThief for them too. I guess I'll make the corsairs first, they're quite easier to be made. Despite to my previous words about the LOTR models that i'm intending to make, the next LOTR model(s) from me will be from Angmar (especially Dark Numenorean & Rhudaur)

 

[Radagast]

Looking forward to them.

I love where you are going with these models. Though I prefer for the pikeman and archer to both have the face masks as well as future Haradrim to have it too. Other than that, awesome models. I'd love to see more than the Haradrim faction in the future too.

will work on that later. Not sure yet which ones to make after the haradrim.....i was thinking of either the corsairs of Umbar or the men from Rhudaur.

yes, exactly! the arabian-looking people from LOTR who were fighting for Sauron as you put it It can still be used as a Saracenian or Othoman either, i suppose.

 

[Twily]

Animations are buggy, im not sre if its just for me though. Also file size is a little big. 3/5

as stated in the archer-version, they're going to be updated this weekend (approximately).

in the ''historical'' campaign yes, but i think most people will rather use them as something different than Haradrim

 

[Mr.Troll]

that spear looks like you know what i mean.

Nice to hear that. Wow! It looks great so far, but as said in previous models, be patient and more Haradrim will follow. Btw, did you also check out my Haradrim Slayer? He's so far my only Haradrim hero, but i'm planning to make an assassin as well. I'll make a few more troll models in the near future, but i was planning to start either with the Easterlings (Soldiers of Rhun) or the Corsairs of Umbar after the Trolls (they're WC trolls btw, not LOTR stuff). Just check out my Ressources, you might find more usefull stuff there (there's a Hobbit house somewhere either)
