horse

there is no decent horse model in wc3. so i made one (and this is for ttoa, im modelling for it if you didnt already know)

model by: alpengeist36
skin by: blizzard (warlord) (edited by iron_ian then edited again by alpengeist36)

and its not animated yet

380 polys

Looks perfect eh guys?

Almost like the warlords horse, but alot better.
These fella's will be in TTOA pt. 2 :ggani:

It doesn't look like a horse it looks like a pony0_o

surely a pony is just a small horse?

Feeble. If a knight in full armor got on that thing it would break in half :ggani:

Not a bad model tho.

Feeble? Its just not a fat *** like the rest of the wc3 horse models. :ggani:
Alpengeist is working animating it now :ggani:

Tip to above: "The rest of the WC3 horses" wore armor and it made them look larger then they actually were. And yes, I believe that horse would cripple if a knight in full armor stepped up and sat down on it.

Looks good! i like it!

(on another note)
w000ttt hi Dead-Inside! you know me! the "cheater" :D

Hmm maybe I'll tell Alpengeist to bulken up the legs a bit then...

Made from scratch i asume. Well done though the feet could use some proper skinning(hoves) but all and all it looks good.
Dont know how a horse will play a role in TTOA that it would need a custom model. Whatever works for you Iron_Ian

yes its from scratch.

can you think of an UNARMOURED horse already in wc3?

It definitely needs a custom model, I'll give my list of reasons:

1. The horses of the village of Brin are some of the finest in Dale, they are bred for speed, and supply many of the warhorses of the armies of Dale.
2. I didn't want to have armored horses running around in open fields emote_sweat
3. 99.9% of everything you see in TTOA will be custom (not all new models, I mean skins, but there will be alot of new models as well :ggani:)

dammit, 50mb cinematic download :bangH: :bangH: :bangH:

just out of interest, would you say this is any good? (challis being a much better modeller than me)

it's what they need - low poly models that won't take up too much space on the map. Sure, it could be more detailed, but it would be an unacceptable size.
