As in if you pick up the item, it will appear on your char? Well, make a new ability based off of something with no icon, like armor bonus. Set the field that adds bonus stats to 0. Now go to the Art - Target field and add a model (whatever you want attached), Next, set the Art - Target Number of Attachments to 1. Then, go to the Art - Target Attachment Point 1 field and enter a new string, with the name of whereever you are attaching the item (hand or weapon for swords and shields, face for helmets, chest for armor, overhead for things floating around the unit, etc). There you go. When your hero picks up the item, it will appear, and disappear when he drops it.

u forgot to tell him the trigger for it
event - a unit acquires an item
condition - item being manipulated equal to <your item>
action - add the ability darkdenizen described

Sorryforgot to add that you should give your item the ability I described.

You don't need a trigger if the ability is on the item, the art will happen/go away on its own, when the item is in/out of the inventory.

Yeah, Ephy, but only if you add the ability to the item. I forgot to tell him to do that.
