Works fine but I'm setting this on AWAITING UPDATE until the issues are resolved, refer to the judging: The bottom part isn't really necessary but it can be done for a HIGH QUALITY rating, provided the said issues are resolved first
Nice model, I really like the seahorse and the golden face on the shield.

You should consider adding a swimming (in the surface) animationlike other naga models. I believe you should just keep the current animations but at a lower height and add the waves effect around the model. As on the royal guard for example

i kinda like the way the rider has her snake part wraped around the seahorse, but i think her end of her tale, the spot where on a snake, its intimin opening would be, is a bit awfully close to the seahorse's where its opening would be.... don't mean to be nouty in any way at all. just a ditale that makes it look like she could secretly having... eem. unwanted affair's with her mount.... also, it look's both like she with her strong snake mucle wraped around the seahorse like that, like she control its movement that way, moving in sink with it like that, weil in the same time, i'd emagin she also would be a burden for prober movement....

all in all, i think it's a great idea for finaly having a mount for the naga's. and i like the model to a 4/5. just think those things i pointed out should be corrected, although i cant figure either how ell's she would relisticly be able to stay on the mount otherwise. mabie either a shorter naga tale, or her privat area moved a bit futher up tuwards it's belly away from its privat area. idk.

Are you playing porncraft?

nope. never tryied it lol.

heard it mentioned once or twice, but never took it seriuesly as it actuely was a thing. alway's just though it was a slang word for perverted warcraft art's etc....

that said, i would not either be interested to try it if it is an actuel game either.....

it was just a friendly point out that the mount and the naga gir'ls personal area is suspiciously close, wich could give the wrong idea of that mount's and her's "relationship" to/with each other.... nothing more.... and if unintended, maybe should/could be corrected.

There is no real seahorse, snake, or reproductive organ in this model, no lore ever says where naga’s personal area is, I have no idea why you must see “relationship” in this, that’s why I asked the first question cause the game is named warcraft not porncraft. Nothing intended and nothing about that needs correction, please do not talk horny about others work or I may feel offended, thank you for understanding.

Works fine but I'm setting this on AWAITING UPDATE until the issues are resolved, refer to the judging:

Fix the death sound, remove all the unnecessary geosets in the portrait. Fix the Death animation such that the model now lands to the ground before Dissipate. Set the origin point to z=0 or slightly lower

For extra recommendations: add a submerged animation.

The bottom part isn't really necessary but it can be done for a HIGH QUALITY rating, provided the said issues are resolved first
 
Just tried importing this model in a new blank map. The editor crashes when I try to open the map again.

Anyone else having this problem?
I've been told there is currently a common warcraft 3 reforged bug which can cause the editor to crash when opening a map with imported files/models(?).
To avoid the issue I was told to save maps as a scenario folder instead and import all the things via that method.

edit: Also, what exactly causes the problem seems to be unknown so far.

Creative and very different from usual naga roster.

Amazing.

EDIT: Made me even consider switching one of the model I had planned for a hero.

EDIT2: Initially thought it was a unit (like a Naga Knight).
