    They are units of the highest quality!

    One of the best decisions I made was to say yes to Alletun when he offered to work for the mod. He makes nice models... but where he REALLY shines is in the texturing. I can't get close to that standard when I fire up Photoshop. A good texture really brings the things to life and makes it shine.

    This is really a showcase faction

    Those Goblins look amazing, definitely a nice unit to play with.

    The Orcs look good too but there's one thing that seems a bit strange to me. Their ''nose''(?) seems a bit small and too high on their face.

    Am I the only one seeing this, because I was under the impression that their ''nose'' was lower on their face.

    I think the units you have made so far are the most impressing out there (maby beacuse of superior screenshots? I think not) If you only added stonetrolls and no more, i still think that they wuld be the visualy most impressing army.

    Indeed.

    Epic work Alletun! What dimensions are the textures, are they bigger than the normal M2TW textures, or is it just because the heads are bigger and can have more detailed textures anyway?

    @Taranaich:
    the textures have the same dimensions as all other m2tw textures. the head models are bigger so less details will show (think of it as you only have a small amount of butter but a much larger piece of bread to spread it out on ... ) so to compensate for the bigger model i enlarged the textures for the heads. they now take up 3-4 times as much room on the texture file as an average m2tw head. The orcs head texture take up 1/4 of the entire file (!)


    Here's an important question for all of you:
    What colors do a stone troll have? im thinking to do it gray-ish, but there are also many pictures with trolls colored blue, green, brown, pink (lol).

    Hmmm.... I got an idea for fanatics...make them berserk....and have them more spread out along the unit .... Dont know if thats possible tho...

    But aint that what fanatics are? Running naked little goblins with massive flails who are drunk and high with mushroom beer?

    Sounds like the gaullish uber units from europa barbarorum ;P

    Which of course get raped by missiles :P

    i think you have to make three units of trolls,firstly the simple troll(or the new that GW have released)make it dark grey in the back torso and more bright grey on the front torso.secondly hou have to make the stone troll which is what you have shown us in the 3dmax.(i talking about the head).make it dark blue on the barck torso and bright blue on the front torso.and finally the river troll which looks too much like a fish,make it dark green with some kind of little detailed blue on the back torso and very little bright(but very little)green on the front torso.three trolls i think must be listed.you can look again at the pictures of GW for more information,but i think i have helped you.can i ask you something Alletun,is that kind of green colour for the goblins good enough?i don't have a problem with it but why you choose this kind of green?and maybe i think you must add some brighter highlights of green on the orcs(just for the plain orcs,not for the black orks,to look more green).keep it up

    Hate to dissagree with you alex, but i love the colour on the gobelins.
    With the trolls, go with what makes you most happy. The warhammer game makes you paint your models any way you want. And i supose the same goes for modders and their colour textures.

    yeah me too.i don't have a problem,i just i asked,why he choose this kind of green.i didn't told that i don't like this kind of green,maybe you missunderstood me.also for the trolls would be good to have 3 different kinds of trolls,but if is far too difficult to create 3 kinds of trolls,i will agree,i understand the difficulty....keep up the green tide

    Ah, I see. Makes perfect sense too, since other parts of the model don't need quite as high a level of detail.

    I'm glad the texture dimensions are the same, I was a bit worried you had done something like doubled the texture size, thus making it difficult for sluggish computers like mine!

    As for troll colours... Oddly enough, I imagined a sort of slate-blue-grey colour for them, like these chaps:



    Though maybe a bit less saturated.

    Those goblins are excellent, Alletun. It's an honour working with somebody of your artistic talent.

    Those are cool looking gobbo's, I especially like the one that seems to have a David Crockett hat with a red plume.
    Thats a good green for goblins what with the tone of skin being a general pointer to a greenskin's strength or whatever.

    This looks amazing, really excellent work, these fella's look better than the Mark of Chaos ones! Can't wait. Play Orcs on the TT, I'm gonna be an Orc when Warhammer Online comes out, and gonna play my first campaign in this as an Orc, if all the units are this amazing my eyes will love every bit of that campaign! Don't know TONS about Orcs but I'd be happy to help with info and stuff whenever I can :D

    Trolls









    (theres overlay blood textures on the next one, they kinda smudge out the underlaying textures)



    If/when i get the time i'll make some nifty new kill animations for them.

    there are awesome but the legs are too thin.would you mind to bulk them up a bitt,but the are still impressive,nice job,keep it up
    just a small suggestion,would be good to include a second weapon,a simple grave stone hammer(from a grave you know),would be nice.it is indeed a impressive work
