Please, alter her skeleton. It kinda ruins her beautiful mesh at this point.

I have a fancy idea. If you choose a proper skeleton with walk/stand animations that doesnt make her look all croocked (maybe a priest) then pm me and i can make attack animations for a staff or something.

Also, i think she totaly needs to be alittle bit chubbier. Just scale her height down 10-20% and that will do. Maybe just a matter of taste though.

EDIT: oh, this is a contest entry. Then i'm afraid any aid regarding the animations is forbidden. I would say that going with priest animations and a staff will do it.

If he's up for it, once the contest is over I think it'd be sick to see a collab on this to take it to the next level. : )

Chose to stay with these animations, due to a lack of time and motivation.

The staff works decent with the eredar ones, maybe I'll edit them a bit.

Anyway, update: new bracers, new belt, staff added, a few tweaks here and there.

I'll have to look into animations now, adding a proper death/dissipate. Then onto adding particles and sfx. Was never good at that stuff though.

 

[Kyrbi0]

Lookin' fi-iiiii-ine. : ) That's a pretty intense staff.

 

[JesusHipster]

I think she might need a pair of bigger hoofs and a butt to go with her pretty face!

Also - great job on outfit design and color scheme choice.

 

[PROXY]

Thanks guys.

Animation tweaks are occupying me harder then I thought. After the contest I really might hand the model over to you JH

What's better then a bear mount? Right, a zandalari tiger!

Edit:

Ready to rumble! Fully animated, wrapped and meshed.

In case you missed it.

Removed the green tint of the armor too.

Also: more trolls.

 

[Deleted member 238226]

love the wip so far. keep up the good work.

 

[MogulKahn]

And next troll is going to be? I mean what kind of warrior is he? And I prefer jungle over forest trolls!

 

[Kyrbi0]

Also: more trolls.

Curse you, man!! Why must you make things so hard for me? I could probably make two Troll races at this point, with all the custom Troll warrior models flying around. :< We need moar different things; flyers, siegers, etc.

Pretty sick, man. Jungle Troll version is necessario, por favor... But I love it. The build/proportions are just right, and the mask/pauldrons are nice & pretty unique-looking.

In fact, this is the closest thing I've seen the fabled Fire Dancer (though with the Hexxer's mask), which is something I've been searching & pining after for years now... Please consider giving this guy custom fire-/torch-spinning animations.

Boy-o.

 

[MogulKahn]

Is that Hexxer picture some kind of map, or you just tested HoS models?

 

[Kyrbi0]

It was given to me wholesale; I did not create the test map.

 

[MogulKahn]

Can you share it with me, please? I was really lazy to import all those models and check them..

 

[Kyrbi0]

Um, like I said, I didn't make that map; not sure I even can. Sellenisko uploaded a bunch of stuff in Kam's topic; check there?

Akama early WIP.

 

[Stefan.K]

Wow, some days ago someone requested this and I made it in a hurry, nothing special it was, but this surely looks like Akama. Great job you did, may I ask what texture did you used for his cloths? The golden part? I sense some building texture or something mechanic..cant tell. What about his weapons?

 

[PROXY]

That's for you to find out hehe. But it should be pretty clear with this new WIP.

Still not happy with the face and nothing has been rigged yet. The proportions are also still off.

 

[Stefan.K]

Oh, the book of the Guldan, nice job using it. Now that you mentioned proportions, I would based him on the blademaster, he should look bulkier and smaller, i think.

 

[Kyrbi0]

I'm really lovin' this. I always thought it was weird that all the Draenei looked the same...

 

[rcshaggy]

Really great model I guess, and I suggest if you want to save time is to use the weapon Akama has on his model like the curved one.

Gonna put the re-wrap over the model and any team colour on the model and is there gonna be any hero glow as well?

You should look at Systemfre1's Akama version, You should get some of his ideas there.

 

[PROXY]

Did something I never though I'd do. I used the original wow texture for the arms/chest and his face. No matter what texture combination I tried to use, it just didn't work out. And making his face without the nose not looking like a retard was impossible.

What do you think? Does it clash too much? :/

Also fixed his proportions and he's nearly fully rigged.

 

[rcshaggy]

That is so really well made!
I love it a lot, and it goes with pretty much everything.

So you adding custom weapons now, because the model itself looks really nice.
Can't wait to use it for my Campaign. Gonna use the old Akama as a Lost Hero, and then as Akama the Broken Ashtongue. :L

 

[Deolrin]

Looks awesome to me.

 

[Chaosy]

I think it should have a slightly darker skin tone.

But still, solid model.

 

[PROXY]

Thanks guys. Will play around with it a bit more and see how it works out

In the meantime: It's STAMPEDE time.

Now we're back to "stuff I care more about". xD (Akama is neat, but I never cared much for the Draenei)

I gotta say, while I'm generally in the "Tauren shouldn't need/have mounts" camp, this is a solid model so far & a needed addition (mounted Tauren) to many people's Tauren race. Also, nice "super/war kodo"; love the crooked horn & the TC armor (what's that, the Barracks?)

 

[PROXY]

I still have much to work on this one, the textures don't work together quite yet and I have to find the right amount of TC.

 

[stein123]

Awesome work, that tauren is pretty sick!

 

[Naze]

Great addition to the tauren models! I guess you could find a better amount of TC by reducing the kodo's helmet? Awesome work as always.

 

[Deolrin]

Damn, that's some awesome stuff.
You're always spot on with those lore-friendly, and somehow needed models.
At any rate, I think the previous TC solution was better, all of that heavy plate armor, gold trimming and black metal armor just don't fit the Native American-esque Tauren. Raw hide, wood, feathers, that sort of thing would fit better, in my eyes.
Trolls get away with it because they are some what more Aztec-y. Somewhat more developed in a way. But full plate Tauren were always silly to me (looking at you, WoW...).

Thank you, that means very much to me. I try my best to keep them lore friendly and useful at the same time

And updated it greatly, I think you'll like him this way Still not totally satisfied with it, but we're getting there.

 

[Deolrin]

Yes, that's looking good.
I still somehow feel like the previous barracks hide teamcolor was unique and interesting in a way, but this looks great either way.
I've another suggestion, to make his head more unique and interesting - give him a mane of hair. From what I can see, you already gave him some black hair on his back? Why not extend that mane to cover his head as well? It should help him stand out from the Tauren Chieftain further. You could also maybe replace his nose ring with something else. Perhaps a bone semi-circle? Something similar to this:
https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/564x/9a/ef/1a/9aef1ab45da588156aef45656042cd9c.jpg

Also, for a spell animation, maybe you could have him toss a bola? I think any of the mounted Attack animations should work fine for this, but the Wolf Rider's Ensnare would be a good example of what I mean.
Oh, and I'm looking forward to see with which weapon you shall arm him.

 

[PROXY]

I'll think about the head, thanks

Here's his new weapon, a big ass mace.

 

[rcshaggy]

The Kodo Beast Tauren rider unit looks good.

So any updates to the Akama model, because it does look like and what weapons do you plan on using for him?

http://hydra-media.cursecdn.com/wow.gamepedia.com/0/0e/Kael'thas_and_Crew.jpg

Could give him his famous Staff or even his two blade kamas...Get it? Kama...Akama? lol...
Well anyway Proxy looking forward to using your Akama model and that Tauren Rider looks really good.
Could of been if Warcraft III had mountable buttons in the game like WoW and Heroes in which your Hero could mount up and go faster.
Still regardless it is very good you are doing this.

 

[MogulKahn]

Well, that staff for Akama is strange. Of course he is going to use kamas for him!

 

[Kyrbi0]

I'll think about the head, thanks

Here's his new weapon, a big ass mace.

That's a pretty schweet... mace? Hammer methinks.

 

[Tauer]

Sweet, sweet models. I'm loving that Akama!

 

[PROXY]

Great news. Working together with Jesus Hipster again <3

He's done a great job with the rigging and the wrapping, created that awesome shadow effect, optimized the textures and mesh and the list goes on.. No more wow textures boys.

I on the other hand finally found time to create his weapons. JH will continue with his animations and some other stuff now, while I sit back and enjoy the show hehe.

 

[Deleted member 238226]

he should change his name to jesus.

holy moly, you both are genius!

 

[rcshaggy]

Holy crap that model looks awesome!
I can't wait to use for my Campaign and I do hope you add team hero glow to the model as well if you can.

Akama looks really great, and everything just goes will together, and nice you two guys are doing for the model.
Looks like Akama himself and not cheap ass model Blizzard did.
Gonna be using the Warcraft III as a Lost One Hero and this one you two made for Akama.
Gonna be awesome seeing custom models in the game for my Campaign, but I am seriously taking a break for now from it.
And once again Proxy you and Jesus Hipster did a excellent job.

So you guys plan to make custom animations or just customizing in game anims? It really gives that Akama feeling, good job with his weapons.

 

[JesusHipster]

I am not aiming to make new animations from scratch, just heavily alter existing ones. However in case of Lady Blaumexx model i also wasn't aiming for a custom animation set. We'll see how it goes. I am also planning on animating his spine tentacles, that shouldn't be that hard. However my aim is mainly not to spoil great mesh of Proxy's with low-quality or unfitting animatios.

I don't realy like that mutaded draenai wibe that's coming from Akama wc3 animations, that's for sure.

 

[Kyrbi0]

How awexome. I love collaborations & you two make a great couple. Can't wait to see what your 'kid' looks like; will he take after PROXY more or JH?
