Necro Stronghold

A model I made out of boredom, 2358 triangles. (the compact version has 1670) It's a tad high, but I don't think it's that horrible. There are two versions included, one is more precise according to the concept, and longer, another one is a compact version, more usable in warcraft III (it's more square). If you're going to comment, test it in game, as viewers don't make particles right (magos turns X and Y, wc3 viewer makes them HUGE). If you use it in your map, leave credits to TotallyAwesome/HappyTauren and WILLTHEALLMIGHTY for awesome particle effects :D
Special thanks to Mechanical Man for providing me HOMM5 references and inspiring me to make a compact version, and Dan Van Ohllus for notifying me to fix a small error in the animated texture.

HO. LY. SHIT.

APPROVED

EDIT: But yeah, if you can get someone to make an epic death animation displaying the building slow collapse it would be great.

Actually, I have an idea of what I could do. Make a simple death animation where the model sinks into the ground, add particles only to stand work animation, stand would only have animated texture, and in birth the model is transparent and green, like other undead buildings. Could work?

Pretty much. Would it be possible to fit some team color in there. Seeing you are contemplating stand-work.

You should still add an 'epic death' animation with the slow motion adn very detailed crumbling. .P

It is sweet, but with only a stand animation is utterly useless as anything but a doodad. You should really seek out a way to add at least a birth, death, and work animation to it.

Also, team color for the win. Do it. Trust me.

pretty awesome model, but i agree with dusk.

haha this spits in the face of paladins and their cathedral

Make a pentagram somewhere for extra bonus points (as a sort of easter egg).

Dang, I knew I forgot that. Anyway, updated, animated, particles put only to stand work.

Wow, looks really cool. Dunno where I'd use it, but certainly an imposing structure.

updated again, fixed some issues, added DVO to special thanks :D

Did you ever get this thing a death/birth animation?

Is it safe to assume that a centipede was your inspiration for this? Because the aerial shot looks just like a multi-segmented insect (ala Centipede)

And where's mah pentagram?

Looks "TotallyAwesome" (ya, the nickname I know xD)... However, can you add an "ingame" image please? Just place the model in a crappy map for people to enjoy =P

The first picture in the first post is actually in-game.
