Nice model, but you should remove Non-Looping in Attack - 1

 

[ToastAddict1057]

Oh my goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood

YES IT IS FREAKING RELEASED!!

5/5

 

[Shade Da Scout]

I LOVE the walk aniamtion

maybe skeleton death anim would be better, but meh, it's ok

Try rewraping the "under rib cage" part so the thick black lines would be thinner (they create too much contrast at the moment)

all in all a nice model

 

[Direfury]

You're improving, but fix the chests' movement in Stand - 1.

It shouldn't just jerk back and forth like that. Make it look a bit more natural.

 

[Hantoo]

if walk be straighter and slower, it could be used for your zombie XD

 

[Grey Knight]

I love the Walk Animation More like his Chasing Something

I didn't see the twitch in the animation editor, I'll go back and give it another look.

-Edit How is it now?

 

[WhiteFang]

Aren't all risen skeletons restless good sir?

Anyway,a pretty useful model.Not badly made either.I just love the walk animation xD

 

[Direfury]

It isn't so much of a twitch as it's a jerking motion. Take a look at the stand animation for my Arcanist, or my Tauren Chieftain. Another good example would be my Mountain King.

Look at how much more natural the stand animations are. That jerking issue makes a model look robotic and strange. It tends to draw attention to a model and its flaws.


This isn't a gripe against this model in particular, it's just some advice.

 

[HerrDave]

Hmm, I attempted to give it a leering somewhat odd stance, rather like the skeleton is attempting to make out or assess the mettle of the unit it is looking at. It appears to have fallen flat a bit however, were I to give it the zombie's default stand, it would look a bit too static or like a mere geoswap, which I have been guilty of many a time during the development of WotK.

 

[Direfury]

I would suggest slowing down the stand animation, then. Most of the other animators around here, save for Tauer have the same issue with their animations being so stilted. Just look at how your skeletons' torso goes back and forth with no blending whatsoever, while the examples I gave are much smoother.

That's what I've been getting at.

 

[Hantoo]

Thats alot cooler with background, definitely look better in the model editor XD

 

[Chaosy]

I don't quite get the high rankings here.. useful, but not really good if you ask me.

3/5

Um, thank ye?

o-o

 

[Kyrbi0]

I rather like this. Such a simplistic model/idea, but well executed & quite different from the Skeleton Blizzard gave us. Full of spunk. : )

 

[clockwork2]

Reminds me of the olden skeletons from warcraft 2..... Don't you dare call me a Lich!

 

[SNIper of DARKness]

Love the Spell, "Need a head? Have one!"

 

[Chaosy]

When taking a closer look, the run and spell animations are hilarious lol.

That's a compliment.

 

[HerrDave]

Many thanks, Chaosy.

I'll have to pass your compliment onto Hayate, for the spell animation was his idea and by Jove he did a nice job.

Nice signature by the way, I like the style and font.

 

[clockwork2]

I like yours too Herrdave.

 

[HerrDave]

Many thanks, Clockwork Commissar

 

[WhiteFang]

I like yours too Herrdave.

I must say I'm rather fond of your new signature as well Sir Dave

 

[HerrDave]

Good to hear that it is well received, it took a surprising amount of time to cobble together.

I thank ye for the compliment.

You're welcome kind sir

 

[-Grendel]

his/her run cycle reminds me of that monster from scp containment breach.

 

[HerrDave]

Though I've not played any of the SCP games nor seen one with a running animation, I'm glad to see it has somehow replicated something so renowned.

 

[clockwork2]

EUUUUGGHHH Don't remind me, I'd rather delve into a tyranid hive then face those creepy ass things. I can't blam them!

Sometimes I read the wiki for fun...

 

[clockwork2]

.... Stay away from me xenos being of pure psychic energy!!!!!

 

[WhiteFang]

Uhm,what exactly are you guys talking about?

 

[Shade Da Scout]

This is ridiculous...

...I LOVE IT!

 

[Kingluis]

wow! Nice model you got there! I love the walk animation

"Sometimes the simplest of things are the finest"

5/5

 

[Hantoo]

Just a suggestion, Makes A Sleep Animation (Sitting) So it will be like in some movies or something where skeleton suddenly "Awake"

And Could Add a Sitting Version (Or Different type of stand If Doodad Can Have Variation) As Complimentary Model For Doodad Use Hehe

I like the Idea of a "Naked Skeleton", Useful to Raised from Dead Villager, Or Tier One Skeleton. (Or... Even More Useful, Class Picker for Skeleton Maps, Upgrade to other Skeleton from the Naked Skele)

It's Useful, I give 3/5 (I would Like to Give 3.5 but thats not possible)

 

[Archian]

Simple and quite usefull

The walking animation reminds me of the skeletons in Torchlight

.. and that skull throw is win.

The zombie death animation is nice, but I would have preferred if you used the skeleton death animation instead for a more fragile and boney feel.

 

[HerrDave]

Believe it or not, this skeleton model was intended to be used for a torchlight map, I would've made it more torchlight-esque but then it'd look out of place when compared to the other models, so I had to WCIII it.

Believe me, I really wanted to use the skeleton death, what with bones flying everywhere and a clattering mass on the ground, but I have the worst time with making walk or death animations, as both involve gravity which I am unaccustomed to working with.

You can use matrix eater to transfer animation
(And mesh if needed)

 

[Reventhous]

Nice model! 5/5

 

[Nemesis_]

Awesome, inspired me to make a RPG dungeon thing where you have like skeletons rising outta graves. 4/5

EDIT: actually 5/5

 

[BiroN]

Oh man, that is so creepy and sexy at the same time! I can't describe it Love it nonetheless

 

[clockwork2]

Sexy? Never heard that one said for skeletons before. QUICK SOMEONE DO A MEME PICTURE OF A SKELETON POSING SAYING: "Draw me like one of your french girls."
JUST DO IT!!! SHIA LEBOUF THAT BABY!!!!

 

[Bios]

++++++++++yeah

 

[Xecutor_ShamanX]

Finally, a generic skeleton with no weapons or anything at all, perfect for dungeons. Tho it bugs me that its death animation doesn't make it crumble to pieces like the skeleton warriors, but I know we all have limitations. Nonetheless, you did a great job, especially with the walk animation.

4/5
