MiniMage: The model has potential, but needs more work. Also, the animations need reworking to fit with the spear. There's also numerous clipping in the animations. Work on this.

Here's a banana for scale:

The rider is weird.

Body too little for the head, and why is he standing on the wolf?

I think the wolf should be more armored all over to look more ferocious.

 

[Heinvers]

Body proportions are off the charts now flying in space. Please fix those weird legs o.o

 

[z00rtaz]

Seems like having him stand on the wolf was a bad idea.

 

[Vinz]

It's okay, but as said body proportions are a bit weird. Especially the head.

 

[Heinvers]

Seems like having him stand on the wolf was a bad idea.

umm, yeah, mostly in his current handicapped state ;/

 

[Argos]

He needs far bigger wolf if he wants to stay on him + we want to reach some ferociousness. Bind him with heavy chains to the wolf so he won't be thrown out from his saddle. Take example from my profile picture.

umm, yeah, mostly in his current handicapped state ;/

Hmm


Well updated so 5/5 all the way!

 

[z00rtaz]

It's alright, got a version that sits his ass down now. Will twiddle some more with the other stuff you mentioned Argos.

umm, yeah, mostly in his current handicapped state ;/

Would you mind criticizing without being offensive?

 

[Thanotos 0mega]

Hmm, I like the really unique idea of him standing up, and i bet from game angles his proportions are less wonky, maybe a kilt to hide his legs?

EDIT: It's all one file too, that is a huge plus for me, especially since this was made for a project and could have been broken up more without really hurting the intended work, I did notice a bit of wonkyness in the orc during walk animation,

 

[Gismo359]

I like the idea.
Definetly needs to sit down. His legs are like made of paper, and his head is ginormous.
Also, the wolf's helmet-thing-a-ma-jig seems kinda out of place to me.

 

[Vinz]

Standing up is okay, just fix the body proportions and give him mighty legs.

 

[z00rtaz]

Meh, he's sitting. Easier for everybody.

 

[Kyrbi0]

Huh.

Well, I rather like the idea of a "Heavy"-version of the regular Raider; sorta like an "Advanced Raider". The wolf is hyyyuuuuggeee, though, and that head armor is even worse... Not sure if that could be minimized slightly.

The dude is cool (though his spear is a little lame/bleh compared to the epic Raider sword), and the animations are pretty good (seems like the Orc mostly gave up the attacking to let his vastly-superior Wolf-mount do the dirty work xD). That being said, correct me if this is a problem with the Model Viewer, but the "Attack Slam" seems to involve the Orc burying himself in the fur of the Wolf (i.e. the wolf gets on 2 legs and the Orc doesn't move back far enough, leaving him ensconced in a furry back). Might want to look at that?

Good stuff overall; keep working!

Ah shit, that slipped through did it? It's from when he was standing at its back, he would be flopped of and hang by his chain reins (which are removed as well), now he just belly flops the wolf :/. I'll see if I can't add a mad cackle or somesuch to replace it.

Real sorry about this upload turning into a wip-fest, but I sort of had to change the model fundamentally as my original idea didn't really suit hive.

 

[Heinvers]

This version is better.

 

[Eagle XI]

The choice at headgear made me ask, if its possible to twist a wolf such that it would come out as an Elekk.

 

[takakenji]

standing on the wolf is fine ppl dont understand artistic design

 

[z00rtaz]

Haha, if the artist cant portray said design in a believable manner, the creation falls flat!

 

[Vinz]

Only bigger legs are needed . ;_;

 

[Nevermore2013]

Daaaaaaaaaaaamn 5/5

 

[Vinz]

Ooh.. what if he had a flail?

 

[Argos]

Ooh.. what if he had a flail?

"What if" doesnt exist in history

 

[Heinvers]

"What if" doesnt exist in history

What if we just stop this off topic?

 

[Vinz]

Yeah.. he has a flail... just wait.

 

[z00rtaz]

I feel the spear fits better for a mounted kennelmaster, as he can both use it to stab opponents and train/manage his warbeast.

 

[Argos]

I actually think the flail is quite interesting idea, but in the end it could look worse than a spear.

 

[Forsaken]

It's great! Good work!

 

[Splub]

Cool!

 

[Carefree World]

Why is there no talk
