Naga Marauder (Model)

Naga Maurauder No Belly Scales (Model)

Thank you for your feedback @435D @TiLi1323 @hexhound @Galendor an'Kreil !

Oh, what a nice fellow. Attack from gnoll model, I suppose?
Yes, upper body animations are from gnoll, and lower body from naga siren/myrmidon (walk animation)

Also I see that his chest and belly have the same scales as the rest of the body that is not typical for naga. Is that intentional?
I realize it now too :gg: it was not intentional. I can try to fix it for the Naga purists :grin:
 
Great in theory, animations are gnoll, out of character for a slithering creature.

Thanks for your feedback @deepstrasz :thumbs_up:.

I must say I'm quite intrigued because I think the exact opposite :eekani:! Gnolls are creatures with small heads and large hunched backs, using brute strength to fight, which to me perfectly matches the Naga race. That’s actually why I based the animations on the Gnoll.

Furthermore, the fact that two units from different races share the same combat style doesn’t necessarily mean one is out of character. For instance the Naga Myrmidon has exactly the same animations as the FelGuard — yet that doesn’t make it out of character.

But I understand that everyone has their own way of thinking, and I respect your point of view :grin: .

Cheers !

Ugh, I meant, the serpent humanoid acts like a canine one rather. Scratches its head, opens its mouth similar to a dog etc. Perhaps some better/fitting stand animations instead.

By the way, are you also planning on releasing the scrapped Murloc models too? I've seen your map in the World Editor and would love to see it given a second chance!

You, sir, just gave me plenty of ideas for customizing the naga myrmidon model. Also, naga with centaur animations when? :xxd:
 
What a great additional Naga warrior model; creative choice to use the Gnoll animations, and the face is quite different. I agree it would probably be better (or "more consonant with the other Naga") if the belly-scale issue were fixed. But I can't help but like this little guy. ^_^

Thanks for your feedback. I'm on it actually, it will be updated tonight.
