Murloc Model Gallery

[varsaigen]

This is a gallery for a series of murloc models I am making, replacing each Protoss and Terran unit in the Starcraft games.

Terran

Firebat

The Murloc Firebat is dangerous, wielding the power of fire, they burn a swath of blazing death and chaos through the Zerg, and anyone who gets in their way. However, with such power under their control, they become walking bombs, detonating if their fuel tanks were ever to be peirced. Many firebats have lost themselves across the battlefield in this manner.

Ghost

They are the phantoms of the night, your worst nightmares, slipping in and out of sight, in the corner of your eye. They are assassins, killers, the ones with the bomb. Before you know it, you are dead. Before you know it, you have burned, dead as the ashes around you, as the sky fills with mushrooms of doom. They are ghosts, shadows, the end of life.

Goliath

The Goliath walker is common in both defense and offense. With its ability to traverse rough terrain, it makes hunting, or flanking the enemy easier. With their height, barricades and shelters make no difference, as they fill the area with lead, tearing, ripping, shredding into their prey. For this, they have become a fearsome tool to the UED.

Portrait will be made as an option for an existing Goliath model.

SCV

The SCV is essential in any base, building, repairing, and harvesting minerals and gas. WIthout these units, no base could survive for long, thus making them prime targets for strikes.

Science Vessel

The Science Vessels, often used by colonies in the far reaches of UED controlled space, are now being adopted by the military themselves to study the Zerg and Protoss technologies and biological advancements respectively. Making excellent surviellence units, they have been brought into the military for electronic warfare, involving EMP, radiation, and detection of cloaked units. Having no attack or defensive means, they are a target for enemies trying to get past defenses unnoticed.

[Sheephunter]

Wait... your making models to SC2 or Wc3?

and are you making an team with murlocs?

 

[varsaigen]

Yes, I am making Starcraft units into murlocs for wc3. Eventually, when we discover the necessary requirements to make models for starcraft II, they may be redone for starcraft II. However, I think it unlikely that it will be done my myself. I don't really want to make them twice.

All this was the doing of the Murloc Marine. XD

 

[PROXY]

uhh, sounds like a lot of work anyway, good luck with that, the murloc marine, from that old thread somewhere in the requests section looks really, really, good, (if you are going to 'use' that one)

 

[varsaigen]

Thanks! Yes, I know it is quite a task. XD 23 Terran units and 27 for the Protoss (racial portraits included) D: Oh, and i plan to do an Infested Marine as well. If I have the enthusiasm, of course. XD

 

[PROXY]

uhhh, let me think: 23 +27, so 20+20=40+3=43+7=50omg 50 models!!!!!! no, joke beside but I suggest the first thing you could do is give the reaper a better texture, because now, you can't actually see it's a murloc :/ (I know, this has been mentioned before in the contest thread, but hell, I need something to speak )

 

[Dr. House]

I hope you know that you basicly say goodbye to your life? 50 models thats gona take ages XD

 

[varsaigen]

Yep. Already did the math. D: It'll be a pain. D: For some reason, I'm hoping certain models will be made. :/ Like the Collosus. Yet I also want to be credited for the Collossus, which means I am conflicted on whether to make it or not. XD

I hope you know that you basicly say goodbye to your life? 50 models thats gona take ages XD

Yep! And I'm not getting paid a nickle! XD

And yes, I am aware of the Reaper texture. I've said it myself. But, what can one do when they are rushed to finish a texture in one day, and are not known for being a texturer? XD Juggling the mesh, texture, and school/sleep is not fun. D: But, I'll get to the texture when I return to the model. I think I need a break from that model. :/ Perhaps I'll continue the zealot, or start one of the Starcraft I ships. :/ What do you think?

 

[PROXY]

do that what you makes most fun to model

 

[hellblazer-14]

Wow Varsaigen, you've taken one hell of a burden on your shoulders with all this! But I'm sure you'll excel at making all of these, as always ^^

If they look as good as your murloc marine, this is going to make on hell of a great pack!!!

 

[varsaigen]

MurlocCraft! Terran Pack and MurlocCraft Protoss Pack!

Honestly, I have no clue how long this will take me. I think I'll get through Starcraft I first, as I have more to go on at the moment. :/ Eventually, I'll get on to Starcraft II, but that'll be oh so fun. >_> I get the feeling I'm going to have to call in the help of some of the experts (mods D when it comes to texures and spell effects D: And I know how they would react. I'm not particularily popular with the mods. X)

I'm sure I'll be called crazy for taking on such a massive task, but it was bound to happen that the Marine, Firebat, Zealot and Ghost would be turned into Murlocs. :/ I'm just going beyond all that XD

 

[varsaigen]

Well, I recently finished the Yamato's birth animation for TheTerran's request. Luckily, this request helps me to fill out the Yamato Beam for both versions of the Battlecruiser. When the Yamato itself is finished, I think I will release it side by side. The birth animation of the Yamato, unfortunately, is a seperate file from the missile due to complexities in the firing sequence. None the less, the Yamato is being created. :3 And the models of both the Starcraft I and II versions are being developed by MrCrowley and Fingolfin respectively.

However, the birth animation may or may not be applied to the actual Battlecruiser models, but the Yamato missile should be available for download in the model section upon completion, or alongside one of the cruisers. I'll have to work the Yamato Birth details out with the creators of both ships.
