High/Blood Elf militia...
Why did Blizzard never introduce them?

High/Blood Elf militia...
Why did Blizzard never introduce them?

i am pondering the same thing. when i have opened up the high elf worker for editing, have noticed the torso is conveniently set as a seperate geoset already. This was quite possibly done for easily texture swapping to militia, which has the same dimensions as the elf worker uses.
as for why, idk. however i can say that the quel'thalas part of the undead campaign always felt rushed to me, almost as if they said "ok, this much is enough for a sub-faction that will appear only in one level at full force, anyhow." then shipped it with as much had got done up until that point, instead of spending anymore development time further working on it.

Why is the portrait more qualite than the actual model, but other then that nice job.

Good idea! But, imho, it would be better if they had some elven-styled armour somewhere and some kind of swords or sabers instead of axes.

Bah!! They're only peasants with long ears!
Even the High Elves in their society have downtrodden persons like the peasants!

Yeah as lcpomp said, some little changes would be nice but this is very useful nonetheless.

The main parts of the model should not be visible during the 'Decay Bone' animation. This is even not correct on the normal model.
Please fix it.

 

[PurrsandMlems]

okay, fixed the decay bone anim.

a blood elf variant with some changes to the armor and eye color will be appreciated cool idea tho

 

[PurrsandMlems]

you can easily do that yourself. simply using mdx pather you have to change path of one texture on the model, do:
units/Critters/HighElfPeasant/HighElfPeasant.blp
when this set to
units/Critters/BloodElfPeasant/BloodElfPeasant.blp
and it should have turned into the blood elf variant.

A simple elven militia model. Works in-game.
