Works ingame and performs well.
Looks nice and is a great addition to the orcs.

 

[Tauer]

Finally I'm done with this guy. As the name implies this is a model of Kilrogg Deadeye. I really really hope that you like it and that people can use it, as I've worked hard and long to get it working.
There are a few people I'd like to thank;
Samwise, for making that awesome drawing of Kilrogg Deadeye which was my inspiration to make this model in the first place.
skrab, for helping me with a texture problem I had. Thanks dude
And finally I'd like to thank Traxamillion for helping me get the model to work when I had lost all hope, and because he's been real supportive. And because he's simply great.
Remember to give me credit if used. And you're free to modify all you want as long as you give me credit.

 

[Linaze]

Looks good, although I'd like to see team-colored shoulderpads.
(Also, please do Cho'gall )...

 

[Tauer]

Thanks, yeah, I tried making team-coloured shoulderpads, but it didn't look so good IMO so... But Cho'Gall? Interesting, hadn't thought of him. I might just make him

 

[Tauer]

No comments?

 

[Tauer]

Could a Moderator please tell me what I need to do to get this approved? I have no chance of improving it if you won't tell me.

 

[Traxamillion]

They probably just haven't gotten around to it, be patient my friend.

 

[Tauer]

Hehe, sorry. Patience is not what I'm best at. I'll try to be more patient

 

[wereguy2]

It looks good, but it is too big and too similar looking to the blademaster for my liking
3.5/5

 

[ClaptonBlues]

Although I do like the black shoulder pads, which make him look bad-ass. You should distribute two models, where one has team-color shoulder pads and the other without.

 

[wereguy2]

This is off topic, but I just came up with an interesting idea.
A race that has team coloured skin

 

[Jack_Sparrow93]

Looks nice! Like it!

 

[Tauer]

Thanks

@ClaptonBlues, That is a good idea, but I'm not sure that I'm allowed to upload the same model twice.

 

[Paku]

Seems awesome to me.

 

[TheBronze]

A perfect model for the Coming of the Horde, sadly, I don't have the space for this one, but I am using some of your other excellent work.

Thanks!

 

[Tauer]

You're welcome, and thank you very much

 

[Tauer]

UPDATE2: Made a few minor changes and gave him team-coloured shoulderpads.

Don't know why, but for some reason I can't update the screenshot...

 

[Leeroy]

Better screenie. And finally TC pads.

Deserves a 4/5 for me, absolutely beautiful.

 

[Tauer]

Wow, thanks
Can you see the new screenshot? Cause for some reason I can't..

 

[raphamaster]

Pretty good. And i think you should put in the file the black shoulders and the team colored shoulders models.

 

[Haistrah]

"Stand Second" makes the unit bigger.
"Stand Fourth" makes the unit smaller.


The unit is awesome but it will be good if u change the color of the special effect (who follows the sword) during the attack animations as this unit looks too much like the Blademaster. I love his shoulder pad and his grey hairs are really nice

The portrait is awesome!!!!

 

[APproject]

Very cute.

 

[Linaze]

Much better than previous version, definitely going into my project.

 

[Misha]

First: rename the internal name of the model
Second: Fix the "blp", it doesn't load =/

~Misha~

 

[Willhellm]

It looks good to me, but does it need a custom texture? Couldn't the Grom texture fit, or no?
I'm no good at understand all that whatnot, just wondering.

 

[Tauer]

It could use Grom texture, but then it would look an awful lot more like Grom

 

[DarkDivinity]

i like the model alot, especially the sword. any chance of you uploading the sword seperately as an attachment?

 

[Traxamillion]

The sword already exists, its an attachmnet fom fel orcs right?

 

[The Final Sin]

ummm well, if you have read books and stories by blizzard ppl and blizzard hired writers you know that kilrogg was a warlock(note WoW eye of Kilrogg spell) and he was NOT FIGHTING AT MELEE RANGE, sooooooo the sword is wierd, but a knife at his belt and staff in his hand would of been good

 

[Tauer]

Aye. It's from the Fel Orc Raider.

Whoops, sorry I actually didn't know that. So far he hasn't really been in any of the books I've read. He's mentioned in Rise Of The Horde, but never as a Warlock. That was a stupid mistake on my part, I should've read some more background on him first. I might change that later. Which book does he have a bigger role in? Tides Of Darkness? Beyond The Dark Portal?
The sword looks neat anyway.

 

[Traxamillion]

....

Kill'rogg was not a warlock..

If you read the books or know the stories hes actually a warrior type, like this.

 

[Tauer]

Okay. Now I'm confused. Was he or was he not a Warlock??

This is what WoWWiki says.

Kilrogg Deadeye was a legendary orc WARRIOR and chieftain of the powerful Bleeding Hollow clan. He is so named because he lost his right eye.

So it seems that Traxamillion is right. WoWWiki isn't always correct though..

 

[Traxamillion]

He never was. Hes a fighter. He used an axe.

 

[Tauer]

Okay. Cool.

 

[graystuff111]

The texture seems so similer to the blademaster and farseer that it looks like you could have used all ingame. Also the eye seems to stand out too much for my liking.

 

[MEtalliC]

There is a campaign on hiveworkshop " The Saga of Azeroth- Part 1" which has an awesome Cho'gall skin/model. He is not a playable character though but you can see him in cinematics.

Hmm, where is this campaign? I can't seem to find it..

 

[Traxamillion]

its called the coming of the horde.

 

[Tauer]

its called the coming of the horde.

Ah, I remember playing that one a while back. It was very good, just too bad it was never continued.

 

[matmat01]

his right eye is to circular. maybe make it more oval...

 

[JokeMaster]

Awsome! Great work 5/5

 

[Linaze]

For somehow I get the old version when I download it now, the one without tc shoulders, that is.

 

[sacridshadow]

what's with the staff on his back? Isn't the sword enough to kill someone?

 

[Devine]

his right eye is to circular. maybe make it more oval...

lol ... An eye itself is round.
the skin around an eye makes it look like an oval.
This eye doesn't have skin around it >.>

 

[Tauer]

Are you sure? Have you tried testing it ingame? It shows incorrectly in the WC3 Viewer.

what's with the staff on his back? Isn't the sword enough to kill someone?

He is based loosely on the artwork of Kilrogg Deadeye.

As you can see he has a staff on the back. Besides, I can't see a reason not to have an extra weapon?

 

[Linaze]

Well, the texture is the old version, with the hellscream kind of chest armor, even. So basically I get the wrong texture file on download.

 

[Tauer]

Ah, my bad. I uploaded wrong texture. Should be working now

 

[Linaze]

Yes it does, brilliant man! /kiss

Edit: Shoulders are bugged on the portrait.
Model viewer's fault or an error in the model?

 

[Tauer]

That would be my fault. I forgot to change them for the portrait. I'll do that now.
