Intresting discovery, it shares much similarity with the Headhunter, possibly an early draft of it?

Hmm... it doesn't seem to fit the headhunter... if it does then it wasnt finished...

I know, but look at the pants and spear. Also, I realized, if you look at the Blademaster skin, in the back you can see a face and I think a little bit of body of what looks like a smaller blademaster. It's practically the same size as this troll. I'm guessing they used a different kind of wrapping when they started out and those were earlier drafts so they either painted over them or just stuck them in odd places under doodads :ggani:

they prolly started with smaller resolution skins,m and when they realized that they could make uber skins, scrapped those, this troll is prolly a low res draft.

its just the texture, the actual model doesnt exist for the specific texture (its doable tho). its just a leftover file from the alpha.

Looks like a forest troll/headhunter hybrid...

to me the skin (not that screenie) always seemed like the old Orc Hunter concept art in the Art of Warcraft. Essentially a headhunter but was an Orc rather than a Troll.

Is that the skin placed on a head-hunter? If not then could you post a .mdx that fits. That would look really cool in-game.

No, its a picture from the beta, it doesn't work on a headhunter.

That's not a betaskin, actually the shark texture is for the Behemoth creep. They're amphibious, and when they're in the water, they flip over and their shell looks like a shark.

if anyones interested, i converted the odd skin into the headhunters flat, meaning you can play with the alpha troll.
