Model - Weaponless Grunt

[Booshnig]

I've been searching around the new/old forums, and found every weaponless model that I'm going to need for my map, except for the weaponless grunt. I would greatly appreciate it if anyone could make me a model of a weaponless grunt.
(I'm not sure if it would necessarily be a model or a skin).

You could just alpha out the weapon...

I would, but I have no idea how. =(
I heard it had something to do with photoshop 7, which I have, but I have no idea how to retrieve the grunt model.

If you have any more questions, let me know.

Ok. I opened the grunt skin in Photoshop 7, then it tells me to select "masks" on the menu. Masks wasn't on my menu, so i went to "Select > Load Selection > Grunt.tga alpha layer". It then showed me a list of channel layers at the bottom right corner of the screen, titled "RGB, Red, Green, Blue, and Alpha 1." This is where I'm confused. The grunt's shoulder and chest team color areas are automatically selected, but nothing that's supposed to happen in the tutorial has happened. (Just realized that my Photoshop is 7.0.1, dunno if that makes much of a difference though.)

Dude.. .. .. they have a grunt in the downloads section that has no weapons, and far passes the normal grunt in texture and model form... go look for it, i think its a WoW remake?

Yeah, I've seen it, but unfortunuately the orc model is left handed =(
So I guess this is a new request - could anyone make a Grom Hellscream model withought the weapon or the flag/banner over his head?

I had that same problem when I started skinning...just make sure RGB, Red, Green, Blue, and Alpha 1 are all visible. In other words, make sure they're all selected. You can tell by the little eye icon next to them(I think it's an eye). Make sure they all have one(just click the box if there isn't one). It should now show the alphaed out parts highlighted in a red color. Color black over the areas you want alphaed out, and it should work.
