[stein123]

Sire, you deserve a friggin spotlight!

 

[paladinjst]

Woaaaaaaaaal~ So the old gods finally come to us!!!!!!!!!!!! 5/5

 

[DragonMax_HCM_]

epic for these star-studded friends and in the future, you need to be mentioned.it's amazing how to put quality models, would be suitable for these star campaigns if anyone is planning.

[Zenonoth]

Voting for Director's Cut, godly work @Explobomb

 

[Wazzz]

I completely forgot you were working on this and am so glad to see this dropped.
I also feel Riki's resentment at this not being released before his previous contest entry.

 

[Riki]

Really wonderful! This deserves more than just 5 stars.

Spoiler

Oh man, would be absolutely legendary to have a Y'Shaarj model too.

 

[Homor]

What a bunch oflovely boys!!!

 

[deepstrasz]

Weren't there 5 old gods ?

 

[Explobomb]

Thanks guys! Finally got around to get these uploaded! Hope they all find good use in maps, projects and campaigns.

 

[handclaw]

Awesome work!

 

[Ageron]

This is insane! Very cool!

 

[Mythe_]

Another fantastic model.

 

[Land Eater]

This is an interesting interpretation for the forgotten ... And also in the battle for Azeroth maps, where there are many dungeons, including those with the ancient gods.

 

[Devalut]

Faces only a mother could love, and perhaps me.

 

[Xelos]

really beautiful and scary at the same time friend, you are really talented

 

[Deolrin]

I really like these models and the amount of effort you put into them truly shows. Anyone using the Forgotten One model in their maps can just throw it out the window in favour of these beauties right away!

I do feel, however, that the textures feel a little bit flat and lifeless in a WC3 context. The wrap is also a little stretchy in places, especially on C'thun.
I'd love to see the textures touched up a bit, maybe with optional teamcolour versions added too. More detail, stronger shadows/highlights, brighter colours and more contrast. N'zoth's textures are the best of the bunch but still stand to be improved a little.

I also haven't seen them in-game, but animations on C'thun feel a little basic and iffy - and the Deaths on all 3 main models also seem a little underwhelming (I kind of like the explosion of blood from the in-game Forgotten One, it makes for a satisfying finish on a tough boss). I'd kind of hope to see the eyes/mouths exploding or closing at least during the early stages of their Deaths.

He probably don't have the Y'shaarj because he is making a 'sha' pack of models? Who knows?

 

[ShadowMidas]

Freaking Amazing!

 

[Paillan]

Weren't there 5 old gods ?

There's like 6 if you count G'huun and maybe 7, blizzard hasn't been clear if Xal'atath was an old god that was defeated and sealed in the blade or what.
Very epic models btw.

 

[Erick123]

wc3

 

[LISBOAH]

Finally models for the Dark Trio!!
A pity that we never get to see Y'Shaarj in the game since he is dead, though.

All of them hold a special place in my heart due to several factors:
1) Their concept, design, powers and voices are terrifying, even more than the Scourge and the Burning Legion.
2) Their quotes are chilling on so many levels

C'thun: "You are already dead."
Yogg-Saron: "I am the lucid dream, the monster in your nightmares, the fiend of a thousand faces."
N'Zoth: With every choice you make, you become more my servant."

3) The impact they left on the world. Deathwing's downfall, the Curse of Flesh, the Emerald Nightmare, the Naga... And indirectly they are responsible for Sargeras creating the Legion.
4) They take a role on nearly every expansion.

Quite a shame that the closest thing we had to a Old Gods' centered expansion was Cataclysm.

 

[Explobomb]

Thank you everyone! Took quite some time to get them done but figured that they would be an extremely valuable addition and asset for people who wish to create cutscenes, maps and story with proper models. Or just for the cool factor ofcourse!

Fun fact is that I usually try to keep the textures over the top sharp and a bit blurry to keep that good ol' WC3 feeling where you sometimes have to interpret some elements yourself. Was thinking about making team colored versions too, just felt that I could release these ones for the public as a start

C'thuns texture could perhaps get a little kick, true, his skin is however pretty much as flat surface but the teeth and eyes could get a bit more love.
Exlposions and blood upon death, noted.

Their eyes are all global animations, would need a secondary geoset for them to animate them properly, some can not be hidden sadly and that's why for example C'thun doesn't do more. Something I'll look into in the future.

Agree, all three of them got really amazing voices, from C'thuns soulless whispers, N'zoths burdened soothsaying and Yogg-sarons horrendous laughter.
Really think they could've done more with both Yogg-saron and N'zoth, they got way too little spotlight compared to the legion being around in 4 expansions, not too mention barely any dungeons with old god theme.

He probably don't have the Y'shaarj because he is making a 'sha' pack of models? Who knows?

Who knows? People seem to miss the Old Goat.

In the RoC manual , only 5 are mentioned, without any names.

 

[Lordul Dracula]

OMG Awesome 10/10

 

[_lycan]

Wow, genuinely impressed, good job!

 

[Stoneborn]

these are seriously gorgeous

 

[Yousef]

Finally! These models are top tier!

 

[Nobelian]

Such misplaced zeal. Their eyes remain closed to the true path. Not like you. My devoted chosen.

 

[Uyarrr]

AWESOME , EXTREMELY USEFUL!

 

[The Nightmare Book]

Oh my...
I really searched C'Thun non-WoW model for my Call of the Swarm campaign, and then you did this!
5/5 automaticaly!

In the RoC manual , only 5 are mentioned.

If we using Warcraft 3 Lore as cannon - yes.
But in WoW we discovered some new entities like Xal'atath (maybe she can be lesser voidspawn or avatar of destroyed Old God, killed by his brothers in Black Empire times) or G'huun (titanforged old god, like an experiment).
Because Blizzard flawlessly killed Nzoth like Sauron in Lord of Rings, I don't think that in nearest future we discover something new about Void.

I feel after Shadowlands we will hear the Void and then we will join the Old Gods against the Light.

 

[Connacht]

Insanely cool

 

[Resyak]

I love them, I had been waiting a long time for models of the old gods. I will use them for sure 5/5

 

[Ronin]

perfect

 

[fan198947]

god！so cooooool！！！

 

[General Frank]

Very cool custom models. Good use of textures and excellent animations.
Models work in-game and perform well.

 

[kangyun]

Someone pls make a old god theme campaign~ cant wait to see hows these models represent ingame!

 

[Archian]

Very Lovecraftian <3 Love it! Great job!

 

[Korean Gamer]

Is there no Yshaarj?

 

[LISBOAH]

No have a Yshaarj?

We have no idea what he really looked like since he never appears in the game.
All we have are pictures from Hearthstone.

 

[minikony]

We have in the Chronicles book there is picture i think it was Amanthul pulling Yshaarj and killing him with that.

 

[Barade]

Amazing pack but yes the fourth god would be awesome. I just found this picture: https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/w...'Shaarj.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20160331205946

 

[adhamnovhak]

Hello do you plan on making Ysharj ?

 

[BaiyuGalan]

I forgot to grade it. 5/5！

 

[Madison]

How come I didn't know about these models before?! Amazing work!

 

[kiveU]

Incredible! Very good work, homie. You have my respect.
