Hawkstrider

It's not news to anyone that for awhile i wanted to make a cannon elf cavalry unit. So after some time this is what i designed.

First off, I call it a "Hawkstrider" since the idea came from the WoW mount. I thought it should look like a Dragonhawk and so my Wc3 styled Hawkstrider was born.

A lot of detail went into the this model, brand new bloodsplats, deathsound config, uv mapping with ingame textures.. new particle effects.. All in All a model im proud of, because i think it looks like it belongs in Wc3.

HAWKSTRIDER MODEL INCLUDES:
-Unit Model
-Portrait
-Icons (Enabled/Disabled)
-Alternate High Elf Version
- Model must be scaled at (1.50) for correct size.

VERSION 2.0 with animated raider now available.

Credit and Shout Out to Olofmoleman. Since I used one of his dino models to do this.

P.S

I made a custom ability similiar to the NE druid of the talon one, that whould "morph" my Hawkstrider into a Dragonhawk and it turned out rather well.. Just an idea for those who might download this model.

Wow, thats quite smooth, nicely done. hahaha i remember trying to do something similar based on dragonhawk bits and the "Lost One" Draenei models. nowhere near as good as this, though.

Dammit Toink, I was gonna say that! Chocobostrider!

Anyway, looks nice but the rider's skin is a bit messy, it could use a bit of touching up.

Reminds me of Ragnarok, those Knighst/Crusaders mounting on Peco-Pecos.

Tell me again how those chick Pickys grow into that giant monster?

Anyways, this should be approved :)

The only reason contrary is that the man sitting on the bird is entirely unanimated.
Looks... Really bad.
