Hero Captain / Hero Captain Dead

This bundle is marked as lacking. It fails to meet the standard requirements and may only have minor use.
A pair of models I've made for a project of mine. Nothing amazing or revolutionary, but they might be useful for someone, so I'll upload them here.

The dead version was inspired by this icon by murlocologist.

Update 1: Added a little more detailed variant of the human version, keeping the old ones in case someone likes them better. Updated undead variant coming soon-ish.
Update 2: Added a more detailed variant of the dead captain. He has a fancy hat!

Very bland and kinda uninspired. Maybe you find a way to make them look different from each other more strongly and also have them a cooler look in general.
Sorry, but other than the sword this one is very bland. The execution is alright, but as you said nothing new. Gets worse because it was after you posted all the other models, and saw you can do better and cooler stuff.
That is a fair criticism I suppose. One of these days I'll get around to modifying them and make them more diverse from eachother, but for right now they fit my needs.
 
Been thinking on a few ideas. I think I'll give the living one a pauldron and a helmet of some kind, while the undead one will remain unhelmeted and get some other details; skulls, chains etc. I'm not home right now, but I might get a chance to look into it tonight.
 
So, I've added two new variants. I am keeping the old ones in case someone prefers the simpler, cleaner versions.

The new human variant has some additional accessories as well as new pauldrons. I didin't go overboard with details as I didn't really have any amazing ideas of what else to add and didn't want to add uneccessary details just for the sake of adding things. I wanted to give him a helmet too, but couldn't quite nail the look of it, so that idea rests for now. For the new undead variant I had some more ideas, and added a single, large pauldron, a tattered fur cloak he stole from some poor beastmaster he probably murdered, chains to keep everything in place, and a fur hat inspired by russian clothing and a piece of concept art I stumbled across on DeviantART. I think it turned out pretty nice.
 
This model being found under "Lacking" was a result of this.
It was brought up that resources were stuck for years in awaiting update and that it was problematic. They were batch moderated to Approved - Lacking because they were lacking some fix, otherwise they would not have been awaiting update. The logic for doing this is that lacking resources are easier to find than awaiting update and the resource is probably never getting updated anyway.

We realize that this might not be fair for all resources. So please make us aware of this if you find something out of whack. Feel free to use the "Report" button.

If you wish this to be discussed, use the correct channels.
