Hi there,
I am requesting a model for my hero who is a goblin and a politician.

I have look through the resources and the closest I can find to the theme is the model done by The Weird Human
Goblin_Smuggler

However, it does not have any attack and spells animation.

Appreciate if someone can come up with a model with this theme. Credits would be given. Thanks!:)

Hi all,
Just an update the hero's spell is already done. I am currently using the archmage model but prefer this hero to be a goblin race.
Some details of the spell:
ERP: "Creates a gantry. Gains gold for each creep that passes the gantry. However, as creeps are unhappy about more gantries, there is a need for a longer cooldown before being able to build the next gantry.", Targettype.POINT
CPF: "Deposits up to 100 gold into a comprehensive savings plan, providing interest every minute.", Targettype.NONE
GST: "Tax enemy on every item purchase made.", Targettype.PASSIVE
Election Carrot: "Gives carrot to a target enemy hero. However, a whole chicken will be taken back." Targettype.UNIT

Great job so far; it's creative and unique; can't wait to see it done. I think we only have a few non-mechanical custom goblin models, so many people will find this greedy gentleman useful.
Thanks! I have to say I don't really like goblins and this is my first goblin model.

Edit: It will be hard wrapping this guy with in game textures, but eh, it's worth it...I guess.

Lookin' really great, man! I see you're going for the popular "Tradeprine Gallywix" model; noice!

May I see those concepts? I want to help the guy, but I couldn't find some reference to use for this model.
Oh man oh dang, I missed this message. Umm....

//EDIT2// - oh man found my @HandCLAW stash (he had this whole thing about a Tradeprince riding in a "Steamthrone"; that's probably a bit far outside of this guy's concept, but hey it's awexome)

None of it's mine; just collected over the years from some of the greats (Handclaw primary among them, but also "Monkeybutt").

Basically they tend to boil down into two primary concepts: the more "royal" version & the more "mercantile" version.

The "royal" tradeprinces tend to feature crowns, flowing robes, big poofy furs, etc; whereas the "mercantile" versions are like souped-up businessmen, with fancy suits, BIG top hats, and the like. Both have a tendency to have fancy jewelry, a cane, and a sneer for the common folk. ; )

I've also loved the idea that the model would be surrounded by a handful of Goblin Guards that are with the Tradeprince at all times. That, or riding atop a palanquin (something like this) with Goblin Servants lugging him around, lol.

Yeah, I thought he would fit this role well.

Those are some cool drawings.

Lookin' good! Love the texture choice, especially the pants & gold bits... His mouth seems strangely stretched, though it may just be the angle. Also his top-hat texture is... interesting. Decided against the standard 'black silk'?
I fixed it. Changed some textures...Right now I'm working on his animations.

Yeah, I took liberty to change something from the original concept.
