Moderator's Review:

really nice texture and simple, but neat re-mesh

 

[paladinjst]

woooool~~glad to see that u had come back to make WOWRPG style models .

 

[sniper_zero]

Nice model. It's useful for those who want lots of Death Knights.

Can you make an on foot version?

I can probably do that.

 

[sniper_zero]

Thanks! Now Death Knights will have more variety.

 

[paladinjst]

I can probably do that.

and i beg u to add some effects on the eyes , shoulders and hoofs .

I'm not very good with particles. I always find myself fighting to get them to work properly. At most I would add some sort of glow to the eyes.

check out from the origin models in the blizzard MPQ files . it can help u to add the effects .

 

[Roland]

Looks great!

You could change the sword texture to look like the Ebon Blade one from Acherus.

But that'd require a custom texture probably, unless you're really really good at creating that with IG.

Damn my laziness! I've been waiting for somebody to bring up the sword. It would look so much better with a proper one. Maybe I'll get around to it when I do the on foot version. The model already uses a custom texture, which includes the sword, so it's no problem to add that in.

 

[myPhoenixBlade123]

wow its good! but i dont like with sword, it quite small but everything cool

 

[PurgeandFire]

Great job! I really like the model, it looks excellent ingame. It is a very nice idea, well-executed.

 

[Argos]

Great! Maybe you should try to make unmounted vers too?

 

[istvan921]

Maybe adding a fitting icon for it should be first

 

[JokeMaster]

Woot hawking is alive?!
And to your sword question do you need anything special? Last time i have been practicing equipment in maya so maybe i could help if you want

 

[Misha]

hawkwing back to making textures? awesome!

 

[Kyrbi0]

Extremely simple, perhaps, and not that much different from either regular Death Knight... But man, that skull-mask looks hecka-sick. I like it. I wouldn't mind seeing it on some sort of Elemental...

 

[rcshaggy]

Awesome model for Warcraft III.

They are created after you get your control back from the Lich King and go on a forgiving spree for your races in what faction you chose at the beginning.

 

[Renly Baratheon]

It's good it would even be better if you use in-game textures.

 

[Hawkwing]

Yes, that would be very impressive! I always try to use custom textures though for the sake of practice. If somebody wants to retexture this with in-game textures, however, I would gladly give them permission to do so.

you should actually deny them ingame textures that would be fun to see

 

[Heinvers]

Finally some Ebon Blade theme! Great job

 

[Yousef]

Wow, amazing model, i am a big fan of WoW, good job .

 

[Palderian]

Very cool !
My appinion is to look at Blizz model MPQ. for the gear of the Ebon Knight and the sword too when u are getting on the unmounted version...otherwise PERFECT !

 

[DaHomieG]

This is probably one of the coolest models I've seen in a while. 5/5 +rep

I also have a suggestion: Can you make a Darion Mograine version? Just recolor the horse and him to dark red and give him the Corrupted Ashbringer. That would be awesome.

one does not simply recolor an ebon blade knight to darion [/boromir]

 

[Skipper]

It is very well executed model from WoW. But Imo you should make better sword for this model. Something Like:

<---- Click on it, seriously it´s here ---->

4/5 - Recommended

Working on it right now. Having some troubles getting it to look right.

 

[plumsy460]

Whuaarh! This looks amazing! Can't wait for it to be approved!

 

[Hawkwing]

Updated!

- Added team colour to the shoulders in the portrait model.
- Created a new sword.
- Messed with the uv's a bit to add more resolution to the sword and helm. (this amounted to about 10 more pixels or so for each, so you probably won't notice lol)
- Smoothed the normals on the helmet.
- Updated the screenshot accordingly.

The site's 3D previewer is currently showing the model with the old texture so if the helm and sword look very very wrong, that's why.

 

[Heinvers]

Now it looks more unique! I love it! Misha i want your opinion on it's update

 

[Misha]

I say that it is really nice

 

[Palderian]

Im sorry friend,but i dont see the change in the model

 

[Gekigengar]

Reminds me of Final Fantasy's Dragoon

Great work!

 

[istvan921]

Nice update Hawking i like it

 

[Palderian]

Could you change the sword ?

 

[Sellenisko]

Cng for approval, really awesome model

 

[Knight Ostrava]

Very nice edit. Wish the eyes and hoofs glowed blue, but it looks very solid.

 

[PlankingWolf]

I like how you changed Frostmourne.

 

[Anknaton]

Also you could made the 4 riders...

 

[Hawkwing]

I've always thought they were interesting characters. I'd love to make them if I had time. I managed to squeak this one out over my winter break but school has since resumed. Perhaps in the summer, but I have other Warcraft related projects to do at that time as well.

 

[Letgoit2]

I can probably do that.

wow nice model dude do you have other models like these wonderful one ?

I have a number of things in the models section, but most of them are made by Cavman with input from myself for an old project we were working on. Most of the maps and models I make do not get released. With the maps it's because most of the projects are made only for my own enjoyment and for the models it's because I don't want to take the time to fix up the minor things that users and the moderators are going to innevitably request when I submit them.

That's a shame. 'Yu've gaht rrreal talent, boi.'

 

[asumme18]

I can probably do that.

The sooner the better, that model looks AMAZING. Cant wait to see it on foot

 

[Hawkwing]

Thanks for the reminder. I forgot I was supposed to be doing that. >.<

I'll get to work on it again in about a month.

A fitting icon for this model can be found in the link bellow:

[warcraftmodding123]

Can you make a non-hero version or is there a way to remove the hero glow in World Editor?
