I agree^
Hmm... I actually like the thin legs... are those twiggy legs that different from the original models?
I think they're awesome! Great job. Maybe the legs could be a little thicker, but the arms are fine imo.

Sorry, but i had to laugh when i saw the last picture there.. Haha, amazing how grumpy and mean you have managed to make those trolls. >:()
Always thoght stone trolls to be comic creatures, but from the peasants point of view.. no fun in those faces.

Heeeey, why did you post here, I missed these! :P Looks incredible! Awesome work.Originally Posted by Alletun
I like the thin legs. They make the upper body look bigger, and exaggerate the shape far more than would otherwise be the case. To make everything bigger starts ot cause issues with the animaitons distorting hte mesh ... but this gives just the feel and look of a powerful creature that will happily rip your twiggy legs off and use them for toothpicks.
If you know what I mean!

Yap. The proportions are all based directly off of the miniature models
Maby if you made the legs less rugged, they wuld fit more to the rest of the body.
BTW: I absolutly LOVE the faces. My last post were a bit comfusing
They're perfect. They aren't LOTR trolls. These are supposed to look like the worst kind of degenerate couch potatoes.They're perfect as is.

Damn - real Warhammerish trolls alive! Great work.
Hotdamn! Sweet looking trolls there, Aletun.

These models are simply superb Aletun! I LOVE the texturing! Keep up the good work!
I love the Trolls, however I think their clubs look abit too advanced, maybe you could make them look even more primitive.
Other than that, I love your Trolls, are you planning to do some River Trolls?
Most impressive! I always thought the trolls looked a tad too comical and cartoonish even in comparison to the orcs and goblins. Somehow, you've managed to make them look pretty damned scary while retaining the quintessential GW Troll look, which is a heck of an accomplishment. Maybe because we're getting a higher level of detail the trolls don't look quite so cartoony! Bravo Alletun.

this thread seems to have gone quiet so i dont know if its still in use, but i had a thought about how shamans could be implemented.
use a mortar with the shamans as the crew (and their bodyguard?), and then make the mortar itself and the shot invisible leaving just the effect animation. but make it BIG and you have foot of gork.
then give them a special ablity like the chants that the apache medicen men and preists of whatever have and make it increase the moral, movement spead and attack damage if thats possible. and that gives you waaaaagh.
i have no ability with computers or modding so i dont know if any of this is possible.
just my 2 cents
Problem with making the shamans the crew to an invisible mortar is that if they flee etc. then the invisible mortar is left behind- good luck re-crewing that!
You could instead have them crewing some portable Idol of Mork (a lump of rock shaped like Mork that could be pushed around) but I imagine it would take some work getting both the missiles and animations to look right.
Goroul
There are other ways you could achieve the desired effect
I went over them briefly in another thread. Bwain knows them, I guess it'll be a matter of time and priorities as to wether he includes any of that.
They look good but their feet look like flippers and are their faces animate? Faces look the same in pictures. Anyway good work.
Animated faces? That is not a feature of MTW2 (which this is a mod for)
The feet look like fine river troll feet to me...

The Black Orcs are being remade to look more warhammer-ish. So far the base Black Orc is done, still helmets, weapons and shields to go. They haven't been put in the game yet, so here's a 3dsmax render:
@WereVrock: No, animated faces are not possible in the m2tw engine (well technically they are, but we want to release the mod on this side of 2011).

That's amazing. I never would've thought that was possible. Spot on man! Keep up the good work! ;D
Excellent job man. What a great Black Orc, I also think the troll legs look pretty good, especially considering they match the models perfectly.
Just wanted to drop a line here to ensure that we don't forget about the classic orky siege weapons, the "lobba" or "rock chukka" (aka catapult). It's crewed by gobbos usually as the weedy ones shoot instead of fightin like uz real orkz.
Spear chukka is the same. Along with the doom diver it gives the faction a fully rounded out ability to smash fortifications and troops from a distance.
That black orc is as everything you do amazing. A few pointers.
1) Aren't black orcs a lot darker than other orcs?
2) The legs are too thin and boots too small. It doesn't work for me as is.
3) I'd like over-sized gauntlets to fit the shoulder pads.
The torso and head are simply amazing. I couldn't have done it better myself in a million years.

hmm looking on it again it might be the shot but are the arms thicker than the legs?Originally Posted by DrZoidberg
