Maiev FelFire Armor

Story - Maiev did not die on the dusty plains of outland, but was humiliated by the defeat. realising that her armor was insufficient against the chaotic powers of the denizens of outland, she captured a skilled demon blacksmith and bound him to her will. after scouring the lengths of outland together, gathering the necessary ingredients, he forged her new armor and weapons, powerfull enough to be a threat to Illidan himself...

i've had to do some minor edits to the uv mapping and materials of the model so that the skin fits better.

Pretty cool, but is this going to be available for download somewhere?
Especially the blade wings turn out very nice.
Maybe add an ingame screenshot and the UV...

+1 rep if you give it to the community

Edit:

her green tail looks a bit odd and outta place, maybe change it to another color that fits with the lava theme...

Not digging the cape, it'd work better if it looked like material with firey designs on it rather than lava which turns into material that seems to be attempting to be on fire.

The detail on the armor is also too high for Warcraft, but too low for showcase skin, you've managed to sort of hit in the middle there.

The blade is quite nice though. Darker red metal instead of glowing orange would have probably looked better though.

Not to bad but... I'm kinda tired of the Maiev skins... new hero please. Hey, how about spicing up that boring archmage eh? Anyone!?

the green color of the ponytail doesn't fit at all.

I love the weapon and the armor itself, but the whole night elf, green ponytail, lava(?) cape just aren't working.
There's too much going on at once, it's tough to follow.
And it looks too rainbowish.

yep, the whole nightelf skin and the green tail don't fit with the rest of the theme.
Maybe make her a bloodelf instead with orange, red or blond hair and human skin...

Looks great
but make her more corrupt looking
Like she has gone mad with hate looking for Illidan
And instead of that firey red
I would say make it that Felfire Neon Green

I love the weapon.
I'm also going to have to agree with every point made, they are good points.

You might want to at least adjust the hues of her skin and haircolor so that it fits with the new armor parts.

If I recall correctly, Maiev had white hair in the TBC model :|

I personally think it looks awesome.

No denying that, but it still could use for a few improvements. :P

hi everyone, thanks for the feedback.
@TDR i can see what you mean about the green ponytail thing.. i'll remake it soon.
@Pheonix-IV haha yeah i tried to do too many different things with the cape. i'll simplify it next version
@The_End felfire green... interesting. might make 2 versions, 1 red and one green. also i wanted to keep her skin roughly NE-ish, but maybe a more corrupted version would look better..

EDIT: added new version, i think the cape is a bit bland now though..

Wow, that is so amazing. I want that model & skin.

Just curious, for the little edits on the model, have you touched the portrait at all? It would be kind of bothersome to have to use up an extra 150 kbs just to add a custom portrait model besides a base.

Also, indeed, the cape looks bland, but still better than the first screenie, where it almost looked like some crappy CnP job. Maybe you could apply some runic carvings into the actual cape like you did with the shoulders? It has two horizontal rune strips--maybe overlay vertical runes where the cape shows through?

Oh, on a minor note, you can black out the unused bits of the skin (around the hair mostly) to slash a few kbs off the end result.

Cape looks fine in my opinion
But see, I just don't see a demon blacksmith making this armor
This looks more the work of a dragon spawn or Dark Iron Dwarf
Make reds, oranges, and yellows like the Green Fel Fire like the Infernal
And then show that result
