MiniMage: Hm, useful for anyone making a lizard race. Approved.

 

[Splub]

Ooh this is very nice! Good work!

 

[Hantoo]

Looks Good
I suggest all of your Lizard model share the same texture
well... the texture is awesome, so.. keep it

w8.. this is..
Awesome
that stand 2

That attack animation :O *Nosebleed*

You should Remove Unused Animation

 

[Gluma]

I crearly remember removing it yesterday (and changing the internal name too), but looks like I forgot to save it and uploaded an older version. Anyway, I fxd it.

 

[Hantoo]

I think you should fix the Portrait talk

ahh that awesome spell slam/whatever (Attack with Particle) is Gone :O no..

 

[Gluma]

You mean the lower jaw animation?

 

[Hantoo]

The Portrait animation Loop Wierdly

 

[Mike]

All is well in this model, only I do not like wrapping bow and soles. Try to wrap it better. I think the texture of night elf bow will be more suitable.

 

[sonofjay]

Looks very good. One of the best lizard model out there.

 

[Zed]

Your models are interesting and has a good concept.
4/5

 

[Gluma]

Updated the model. Added missing particles on spell animation, altered portrait and portrait talk, slightly edited death animation.

I decided not to touch the bow texture, I think skeleton bow fits just fine. And what to do with soles - I don't know, the original satyr model had soles wrapped that way, maybe I'll fix it later.

 

[Anknaton]

Epic model you got there! Keep working on! I can't wait to see the other ones!

 

[Minder]

My review is the same that the other's one, just that this one is more original becouse of the brownish color it has got.

 

[Vinz]

Awesome model! I do suggest one texture for your Lizardmen though.

 

[jonbon29]

I like your lizards you should make more of them but I think it will be good enough if they share the same texture.

 

[Vinz]

Or 2 variations of Lizards

 

[Gluma]

Fixed a broken anim, updated the texture and added an extra green skin.

 

[Kyrbi0]

How did I miss this?! Just as sick as the rest. Love the posture.

 

[Svetli]

Cool model. Can be used well.

 

[Gluma]

How do I properly credit people?

 

[Svetli]

Why have you updated the model?!? Now I have to replace the old one in my campaign...

P.S. Good job!

 

[Gluma]

Uh I'd advice against replacing him RIGHT NOW because I'll be doing some last "minute" edits yesterday - stuff I only found after I uploaded it here ( D: )

 

[BrothForMyPeople]

I didn't need lizardman unit but I think it's excellent model.

 

[Kyrbi0]

Oh MAAAAAAN it's Glum-Glam!

 

[Misha]

Oh MAAAAAAN it's Glum-Glam!

who's glum-glam? O-o

 

[Gluma]

who's glum-glam? O-o

i assume its me


btw how do I add you to authors?

 

[Kyrbi0]

who's glum-glam? O-o

C'mon, man, contextual clues!

i assume its me

*DING-DING-DING*

By the way I actually checked it and BOYO you have outdone yourself again. I have one request STOP being so amazing. You've put so much love into a frickin' meaningless Archer unit I just cannot take it. His dramatic spinning death is gorgeous, and you didn't re-use in-game Archer animations. You made your own Arch-ing Attack animation. I just can't even.

Its quite average animation quality compared to what actual skilled people do tbh. It just so happens that most model makers tend to put the model quality ahead of the animation quality, but animation is so much more fun to make I think.

 

[Misha]

@Gluma @Kyrbi0 ok ok, i get it :b
you can ask a model mod or ask in the staff contact for adding an additional author, but.. since i really did just rigging, i kinda don't see it as mine

Alright

 

[Gluma]

Fixed now

 

[Ether]

A perfect enemy for murlocs and naga. 5/5.

 

[Moises08x]

It's great but I liked the previous version

 

[teozamait]

To be honest the older version was superior in my opinion, especially the Attack Slam animation. The new version is duller, no offense.

 

[Gluma]

Dunno, the old one was my least favourite tbh


I guess I'll add the old one as well (when I'm not drunk)

 

[teozamait]

Good idea, can't hurt to have both versions

 

[Dagomar]

One of the things I enjoy with your lizardmen characters is you avoid using the same model several times over and instead give each model its own look and character.

 

[Darkfang]

no spell animation :c

 

[ISL]

So much power in that shot!

It's just so fascinating how you manage to put so much life in these animations

 

[Gluma]

no spell animation :c

What could it be like?

I think it's called overlapping action

 

[Darkfang]

• He could throw a knife
• He could have an attack spell/slam animation in which you add a custom attachment point called "arrow" so that we can add the special effect ourselves (or maybe even a different animation name like attack special)
• He could pull out an arrow from his quiver, use it to point to the target and have the arrow burned in some magical effect
• And last he is a lizardman and an archer, he could definetly spit poison

What could it be like?

[Misha]

ah, i remember this fellow :3

although i wonder if he would feel even better if you nick the swimming anim set from Lujka. I hope nothing would derp up O-o

 

[BrazilEmperor]

God Bless Russia by this man!

 

[Kyrbi0]

man Gluma so dumb always updatin' your models makin' me re-download them. Why can't you be like all 90% of Hive's modelers; make it once & never change it or add to it or improve it? That way downloading is easy. 0/10

~~~

Man, you never fail to impress. Even if you didn't put out such high-quality & character-ful models, your willingness to completely retrofit/rework (not just upgrade), provide icons, and take user suggestions... Criminy.

This world doesn't deserve you.

~

I can agree with a simple Spell anim; while all of Darkfang's suggestions would be cool, the simplest & most pragmatic is just some kind of simple "arm-raising/waving" thing (perhaps a "Spell Throw"), which just lets the model-user throw 'whatever' on there & have it fit (as it is, if this guy has a spell he doesn't really have anything but Attack (I guess?) to do). Something like the Huntress' Sentinel ability.

That being said, not everything has to have Spell anims.

~

Finally, I hope you know how awexome it is you provide icons. Despite your comment to the contrary, not everyone can accurately take a screenshot & paint over it in the Warcraft 3 style; in fact, I would argue few can. : )

 

[Gluma]

thanks man

well i guess i have perfectionism issues

simple spell anim shouldnt be too hard to make

 

[loboproto]

I comment only to vote, very good.

 

[SonsOfSami]

Great work, as always, also nice to see you kept old variant in the description, that way they can be used for different units if needed.

actually they use the same texture path so you can't use them at the same time untill you edit one

I tried to fix that but it kept not working for some reason

You could just change the texture name, from liz_arch_text to, for example, liz_arch_textOld, and then change the path in Mdlvis (or MDX pather) to liz_arch_textOld.
