MiniMage: Awesome. Approved.
Misha:
after consulting with MiniMage, I've decided to nudge you into making the eyes more visible (probably from red dragon texture) and to make the insides of his mouth fiery or heated-up, as the red protodrake has in WoW.. should be enough..

 

[Sellenisko]

-reserved-

 

[WhiteFang]

Wow nice model. Its been a while since I saw one of your models.
There's two words to describe this model.

Bad-ass

 

[DaHomieG]

Wow it looks amazing!

You should do an Orc version. Recently in the novel War Crimes the Dragonmaw started taming protodrakes for the Iron Horde.

5/5

 

[Splub]

Great Job! Looks just like it does in WoW!

 

[Heinvers]

You have some anim clipping with the wings, mostly during the flying anims.

I love animations man, those look awesome.
~~Not a fan of the texture management here, needs more work.

'love the plates on his back though.
Keep it up Sellen

 

[Misha]

oh lookie, my protodrake is here .u.

I gotta say that wing membrane looks kinda funky to me, and also his eyes mif me a lot because they aren't even that visible.. try to tweak that with probably different eye texture, maybe even red dragon ones?

 

[Hantoo]

Damn!!! That Animation

 

[Sellenisko]

Yeah, right you are. I will work on the eyes more. They need a little love.

 

[Sclammerz]

Ooh! Another awesome model from Sellenisko!

 

[paladinjst]

glad to see u back with this great works ,bro ~

 

[Sellenisko]

glad to see u back with this great works ,bro ~

Gone and back, gone and back...gone and back... I am like a bumerang....

 

[Misha]

You also need to tweak the drake mouth Insides, since they're fiery

aand maybe the bone plates if they can be lill more detailed

 

[7oda]

The Proto Drake looks awesome!

 

[Edge45]

Oh, it looks wc3-ish, nice :>

 

[knight26]

Well. you already know. it's awesome yeah yeah feast on the glory, you glorious bastard!

 

[Blue_Spartan]

Just remove the raider and it kinda resemble Tigrex from Monster Hunter.

 

[Sellenisko]

Well. you already know. it's awesome yeah yeah feast on the glory, you glorious bastard!

Bwahahahhaaa! Join the darkside, we have Sellen...eeeh...i wanted to say cookies!

 

[Lord_Marrowgrath]

You should make blue proto drake rider 5/5!

 

[Paillan]

This model is so sexy... 5/5 !

 

[Misha]

You should make blue proto drake rider 5/5!

do we even have blue kodo/lizards in war3? oO

 

[Sellenisko]

Nope. only purple...But i will think of something...

 

[Paillan]

red + blue = purple. Wound that mean that purple lizards in war3 are hybrids from red lizards and extint blue ones?

 

[Sexylycan]

Any posibility of making Filesize bit smaller? i know it may be too much asked. but still

 

[Sellenisko]

red + blue = purple. Wound that mean that purple lizards in war3 are hybrids from red lizards and extint blue ones?

Wellt hat soundds... interesting. But Maybe its just a breeding of red ones and after many years of trying it resulte in purple specimen, you know, like its done with australian bearded dragon or other lizard that results in many color variants... But i will think of it

LEss filesize ? Even this is miracle. But you can delete animations, that would reduce filesize significantly. Like keep just one stand animation and so on...

Before I start picking this apart, I want you to know that I love this model, am giving it a 5/5, and am only complaining my ass off about it because I think this great model deserves to be improved as much as possible.

The first thing I want to point out is that the bones sticking out of the wings do not have suitable quality to match the rest of the model. That isn't entirely your fault, as 90% of bone textures in the game are low-quality, but if you could rewrap the same parts of the salamander texture you used for the bones on the back to the wing bones rather than the parts you currently use, it would definitely be worth the effort.

There's clipping in many of the animations. The self-clipping isn't as noticeable, but it really doesn't look good when its wings go through the ground.

Rexxar's fur cape is too stiff at the top; lower the corners a bit so it doesn't look like somebody stuck a bar through his shoulders.

The teamcolor is hardly noticeable with a model of such scale. Try to find an excuse to add teamcolor somewhere on the dragon, such as adding a ribbon, cloth or something.

The top of the rider's helmet, other than the stripe of teamcolor, is pitch black. That's not a good place to focus the darkest part of your shading, since the most common light source is, of course, from above. You might want to rewrap it a bit before his head consumes all the light in the universe and makes your model unviewable in the editor.

All that being said, I'm giving this a 5/5 because its many qualities are more than enough to make up for its flaws.

 

[Sellenisko]

Sure thing, will work on things you suggested.

[Sexylycan]

Might Just work sellenisko

 

[Budbuds]

I'm somewhat new to this so don't get upset but are you able to make it just fly so I can use it in my map I'm working on?

I mean how do you make it just fly?

 

[Wasabee]

Just add the alternate in the Art - Required Animation Names.

 

[JesusHipster]

Back to pending since it was Updated. Notify Misha so that he can approve it. Great work btw

 

[stein123]

♥ can you make an orc version? like the orc protodrake riders from WoD?

 

[Misha]

♥ can you make an orc version? like the orc protodrake riders from WoD?

Orc version? oO can i see that?

 

[Sellenisko]

So can this be approved or not? Ok if you want orc version, you will get orc version...

 

[Heinvers]

Back to pending since it was Updated. Notify Misha so that he can approve it. Great work btw

Misha isn't a reviewer so that means that he cannot approve resources. You can however.

Or have you meant permission?

@Sellenisko cool model.

 

[teozamait]

Awsome model!

 

[Roland]

@Sellenisko Nice man! Although it has some glitches, but I love Protodragons! I used to draw them with the same head but humanoid body. Anyway, Keep up the good work and I hope this bub will get approved.

 

[HappyCockroach]

This is a very impressing model. The in-game texture usage is great. There are some major functional issues that need fix though:

• It has some serious clipping going on with those wings on the ground as it walks. Try to lift them up a bit.
• Attachments aren't most correct. Overhead should be at the center of the unit, and preferrably above the rider's head. A bit weird to have its main hands the dragon's tiny arms. I'd put them at the rider as well.
• You need either a set of decay animations and a corpse, or a dissipate animation (Or both, preferrably). Also, the flying version should feature some blood and gore spawned effect upon death, atm it only shrinks to nothing. (see other flying units for reference)

Awaiting Update.

 

[Legeon]

Great work, a dragon rider at it's finest .

 

[Barade]

Nice dragon. A riderless version would be cool.
