Vereesa Windrunner (Ranger, Day of the Dragon)

This bundle is marked as pending. It has not been reviewed by a staff member yet.
"I am no blood elf! I am and shall always be a ranger of the high elf people!" - Quote from 'Night of the Dragon'
Following in Alleria's footsteps, Vereesa too became a ranger. To her disgust, her first major assignment did not involve hunting down the orcs that had been trapped on the planet Azeroth in the wake of the Dark Portal's destruction. Instead, she was asked to escort a human wizard named Rhonin to Hasic, one of the eastern ports of Lordaeron.


This model uses @Fugrim's fixed Sylvanas model as a base. Currently it is just a retexture but an update will add some additional details and a melee focused alternate animation set. The textures are inspired by the cover art from Day of the Dragon (written by Richard A. Knaak). The cover was painted by Samwise.

UPDATES

12/2/2023 - Added Alternate animations using @Tranquil's Thalorien Dawnseeker More Animations fixed model, mirrored so she wields her sword right-handed like the artwork. Still needs a morph animation so currently the sword animations do not have a transition from the bow animations (TBD soonTM). Also added some geosets to make the model more closely resemble the artwork.


This model was created using the Retera Model Studio. The geosets and textures are from Warcraft 3: Reforged. Textures were edited in GIMP by @Symphoneum. Animations are from @Fugrim's Living Sylvanas animations fixed. Please credit @Symphoneum and @Fugrim if used in a project. Feel free to use the model as you see fit and have fun!

for differentiation, I'd suggest taking the Blood Elf Lieutenant's uhhh circle thing that holds his feather decal and put it all around her waist

then perhaps her pants can be replaced with Jennalla's

not sure about her kneeguards, may take Sylvanas' as is or perhpas the Dragonspawns might have something useful

Death One looks like she commits suicide. Also, is there no Morph animation where she switches between weapons?
 
ranger with dagger(sword) brings memories of L2C3, when mobs had resistance to arrows, nothing better than swapping bow for dagger and fuck em up melee xD
would love to see the ranger with the sword(dagger) with bow/arrows on her back just going melee with the sword.
also why cover the clevage?

anyone thinks Jennalla looks boring as hell? I just got lazy painted sylvana in red armor and gave Jennalla a sylvana copy/paste with dark elf look.

Look at the picture that I posted from the Day of the Dragon cover. That answers your second question.

Regarding the quiver being visible when she morphs into melee, I probably will do that but for now while there are no morph animations I have toggled off the visibility.
