Worker Models: Who Wants Some?

[Crazy Cow]

I have been recently getting into model-making, and have considered what the Hive needs most. The answer came quickly enough: workers.
So, I am going to spend part of this weekend making models, and I want to know which races you think are lacking in the labor department. Just post which race you want a worker for, and I'll get around to it when I can.

Existing Workers

Trolls (http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...?prev=of=updateline&search=worker&r=20&d=list)

Satyr (http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...?prev=of=updateline&search=worker&r=20&d=list)
Tuskarr (http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...?prev=of=updateline&search=worker&r=20&d=list)
Spiders (http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...f=updateline&search=worker&r=20&d=list&page=2)

Please don't request a worker from one of those races, unless you feel that they are too poor in quality to be used.

Workers I Plan To Make

Troll
Harpy
Faceless One
Draenai
Dragonspawn
Kobold
Furbolg
Centaur
Spiderant
Night Elf
Nerubian

Please DO NOT request anything other than a worker here. You will be ignored or, if you persist, be neg-repped for your efforts. PM me if you have a request.

 

[ZIR]

Maybe a undead worker.
I know there is the acolythe but maybe you could make a undead unit with a picklaxe which could alternatively used for a worker.
I mean a dreadlord or something as a worker.

 

[Crazy Cow]

What do you mean, a pickle? Do you mean a pickaxe? If so, there are already two here on the Hive (check the 'Existing Workers' list I made), and if you really mean pickle then I'm afraid you will not be getting a pickle-weilding skeleton from me.

 

[karland90]

i suppose one might find a use for a villagerman with real worker animations?

(once upon a time, i wanted this myself)



and although i dont know most of these models, i did try the troll worker earlier today. imho it wasnt all that great, but making a new one would maybe be a tad too much and fixing the existing one wouldnt classify as a separate model on hive to upload due to minimal difference (maybe unless you make it taller and use other skin, darkspear or forest troll?)

 

[Frunck]

*Cough* Peasant

 

[karland90]

i know there is the peasant (DUH lol, who doesnt XD), but i just thought that maybe, if he doesnt have anything better to do, maybe, then it is an idea... cause it already has a pickaxe

 

[Herian]

Hmm..
You could make a...
Ursa worker;
Dragonspawn worker.

 

[Malcous]

Ya , a dragonspawn worker would be great

 

[Newominus]

We need, Drenai Worker, Yes?

Edit: Isn't this an undead worker?

 

[karland90]

We need, Drenai Worker, Yes?

i think Alagremm knows everything about wc3 draenei units on the web. better ask him if there are any...

 

[Crazy Cow]

Hmm..
You could make a...
Ursa worker;
Dragonspawn worker.

Dragonspawn, definitly. But what do you mean by 'Ursa'?
Draenai, maybe. I tried the Night Elf model, but I keep getting critical errors when I give the Sentry animations and the Archer's cape doesn't move, so Night Elf is out (they didn't really need one, anyway) for now. I might try to re-map the Succubus, but not now.
I'll do a Troll worker, as well as a Faceless One.

I completely missed the http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...63/?prev=search=skeleton%20worker&d=list&r=20. It didn't come up in my searches, but I have added it to the list.

 

[takakenji]

this was totally inspired by me

 

[Hjorleif]

Ursa means Furbolg, which would be nice. Make a Wc3 Draenei worker unit, make sure they all use in-game textures.

 

[Crazy Cow]

this was totally inspired by me

True, true.

I'll be using nothing but in-game textures, so no need to worry about that.

 

[WherewolfTherewolf]

It would be interesting if you made a Dragon worker (as in dragon, not dragonspawn). Maybe a smaller less flashy dragon that walks (idk, could carry the sack of gold in it's mouth or something)

 

[Newominus]

Why would it carry a sack of gold in its mouth? (eurgh)

 

[WherewolfTherewolf]

Why would it carry a sack of gold in its mouth? (eurgh)

If its a dragon what else does it have to carry it with?

 

[karland90]

i think some dragons (or most of them) have rear legs, quite useful for carrying bags of loot (gold&gems) or people (screaming princesses) to it's lair

 

[Scythy Dervish]

maybe a flying dragon worker (for a flying dragon race )

 

[WherewolfTherewolf]

Eh but all the Dragon models are flying and it's a pain since you don't always want a flying model. Anyways it's kinda hard to fly in a gold mine

 

[takakenji]

how about instead of a literal dragon, one of their subraces?

like, for a dragon worker, it could be a dragonkin

 

[WherewolfTherewolf]

Well he's already doing Dragonspawn, though a literal dragon would be nice

 

[Hjorleif]

Furbolg, Cantaur, and Kobold are what we need.

I personally need the Centaur and Furbolg, Kobold is just if you want to.

 

[Crazy Cow]

Alright, I'm back.
I was having trouble with Animation Transfer, but now it's fixed and the first worker will (hopefully) be uploaded soon.
I will not be doing a literal dragon; the dragonspawn should be good enough for any dragon race.
Centaur, Furbolg and Kobold added to the list, along with another creature and the Night Elf.

 

[PaladinHeart]

I was browsing through this thread and I realized that there aren't really any female workers. Like a female night elf and human worker.

There's also the villager. People are always using him to do work related tasks in maps but he doesn't have the animations for gathering. I think a villager worker would be extremely useful to a lot of people.

I'm not working on anything at the moment that could use these, but I've got a couple of maps I haven't worked on in a while that could certainly use these workers.

My apologies if there's already a villager worker. I haven't noticed it if there is one.

 

[BlueBerryWizard]

*nerdgasm*

Humans (http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...?prev=of=updateline&search=worker&r=20&d=list)

OMG YOU MADE A FEMALE PEASANT. I've wanted a female peasant for 2+ years now. I shall give you +rep whenever I see a post by you from now on. You are win! XD
Edit: I fail. Cavman made it. Lul...

 

[PaladinHeart]

Oops! Forgot about that one. I remember seeing her when I was browsing models a while back.

 

[Crazy Cow]

Well, the Night Elf worker will be based on the Sentry (I figured out what those critical errors were), and there is Cavman's model (I see you already found it). I really don't want to make a Villager worker when the peasant already exists, and there are plenty of races with no workers. If I am successful at making these, and I finish all the races who need a worker, maybe I'll get a villager done. But not any time soon, I'm afraid.

 

[Hjorleif]

Might I just say, this is a wonderful idea. I hope it all goes well. Workers are the foundation of making a race, after all.

I haven't checked the list for awhile, but is Draenei on there? If not, make sure you make a Draenei worker, Wc3 Draenei, not those ugly blue ones.

EDIT: Also, you can either make a skin or a new model (To differ from the Peasant) Make a Scarlet Crusade worker. That would be VERY helpful.

 

[Cavman]

http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/models-530/skeletal-peasant-48363/?prev=u=Cavman&r=20&page=3

Ursa working though might be like a Furbolg worker, which could be cool I guess.

 

[AlienArsonist]

Could you maybe make a construction worker. For modern games like with the orange vest orange helmet and such.

 

[karland90]

it could be a peasant reskin

 

[Newominus]

http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/models-530/skeletal-peasant-48363/?prev=u=Cavman&r=20&page=3

I still pointed that out first :|

You mean mutant Draenei?

Anyway... Spider worker?

 

[Cavman]

I still pointed that out first :|

That you did, but Crazy Cow posted a different one in his list, so I thought that was the one you posted.

 

[PaladinHeart]

I know there's already a cultist worker and skeleton worker, but is there a zombie worker?

Nothing says evil necromancer army like a bunch of zombie workers. xP

 

[Crazy Cow]

The Scarlet Crusade worker and Construction worker require custom textures, which I can't do. I'm not doing an undead worker, because four already exist, and there is already a spider worker. If you mean a Nerubian, however, I could do one.

 

[Herian]

Hi again!
You made the dragonspawn worker? If yes, that's too awesome, would need it in my map.^^
For Ursa, I meant furbolg. I just always do that mistake : Ursa is a furbolg unit.
And here are other ideas:
-Couatl Worker
-Tauren Worker(Sorry, Did not check list again, if it exists, I'm sorry) that wears a Pickaxe. Just like peons.
-Troll Worker(again, sorry if it exists)
-Raccoon Worker xD
I would love a Couatl Worker, or any Couatl unit. Same for Trolls
Good luck

 

[karland90]

raccoon!!??

couatl!!??
i cant imagine them (well i could if i tryed hard, but i am not going to lol)

 

[Herian]

xD
Hell yeah,
Raccoon and Couatl..
A kind of Raccoon that uses his 2 other legs to wield a pickaxe..
and for Couatl,
A kind of Couatl that got a pickaxe in his mouth, lol

 

[Crazy Cow]

Raccoon and Coutal: no. There are plenty of races who lack worker models and actually need them.
And the reason I put the 'Existing Workers' list there was so that people knew what models existed and didn't request them here. Read the list before asking for Tauren, Troll or any other worker model.

The Black Dragonspawn Worker will be the first one I make and upload. I will make a third list, called 'Created Models', once I upload the first model.

 

[Hjorleif]

Well actually, if you just take the Bandit unit, transfer a worker's animation set, remove weapons.. etc. I could (Other people could too) use Chrome's Scarlet Crusade's skin for Bandits. You wouldn't need to texture it. So, basically it would be a Bandit worker, haha.

 

[WherewolfTherewolf]

You know Elementals lack a good worker model - maybe you could make one for them

 

[Hjorleif]

Eh, I don't need/want that Bandit one anymore. haha.

 

[supertoinkz]

Dude, great thread, I really need a Arachnathid Worker thank you

 

[Newominus]

I thought up of something... Treant.

 

[Hjorleif]

Treant would be sick. I think Crazy forgot about this thread though. haha.
