^^As King Dain said, I also like his final look in the movie a bit more.
I like the hammer more, I think it fits him better than his red axe. But I like the idea of an upgrade for him in which to get the cape, hammer and helm.

[King Dain II Ironfoot]

True the Hammer fits him quite good,in first I was dissapointed when he wasn't with the Red Axe but I grown to like the One Handed Hammer it looked really cool and only if we have seen Dain using it more in more screen from him in Battle it would have been good and may be less Headbuttings

[ThorinOakenshield2]

^^I think we will be very delighted when we see more of Dain and his awesome hammer in the Extended Edition of BOTFA

[King Dain II Ironfoot]

I hope that we will see a lot more fro mthe Battle itslef and Dain and Thranduil and thoes Ram Cavalry,War Charitos and Ballistas and even the Burial of Thorin and Coronation of Dain it will aesome if we get to see all of that!!!The Movie looked uncomplete without the those!!And deffinetly we need more Battle after all its title is the Battle of the Five Armies XD XD XD

Yeah, it will be awesome to see more of the battle (which will surely happen )!

[King Dain II Ironfoot]

 

I'll probably go with this:

 

...start out without the cape, the helmet and the axe, using the hammer. Then we add a button called Royal Assets, or something... and when buying the upgrade, Dain gets the helmet, the cape and the axe, with increased armor, damage and Leadership?

 

 I am 10000% agree with this idea!!Sicne I always like him more without the Helmet in the Movie and was really 50/50 with the Axe and the Warhammer9not Mattock) sicne the Axe is more lore and his famous Balde but the Hammer looked so badass when Dain wielded it and I couldnt decide,but this way there is a possiblityto play him the way everyone wnat!!! But I think the Fur Coat must be there fro mthe begining it differs him fro mhis normal Sodliers and shows that he is the Lord!

[ThorinOakenshield2]

^^I would prefer Dain to wield the hammer when he gets the fur cape and helmet, the axe suits him better when he is without the helmet

The problem are the anims...

 

- Dain anims: One handed weapon, with cape.

- Gloin anims: Two handed weapon. No cape.

- Dain anims: One handed weapon, with cape.

- Gloin anims: Two handed weapon. No cape.

- Gimli: Two handed with cape
He could be rigged to Gloin as well if the binder is successful in rigging the Cape appropriately.

[Nazgûl]

Yeah I know. Valheru did an awesome job rigging Fimbul with cape to the orc SKL that have no cape. It looks convincing, but it's static and won't move/flow off course. Forgot about Gimli... that's true. Might look good for Dain with cape

[King Dain II Ironfoot]

And Dain with bigger cape.I hope '!:-D Joking! :-)

[njm1983]

I have a complaint about gimlis animations though. His movement animations stick out so much - it'll bug me. I just know it. Not that this all about me. Lol

[Nazgûl]

Yeah, Dain and Gloin anims look better, I agree. Might be cause Gimli is BFME1 and the others are BFME2

[MattTheLegoman]

Don't forget about this though. I know these two guys want lots and lots of stuff, but logic and sensibility please.

 

It makes sense using the Red Axe as part of The Coronation of Dain Ironfoot, because we don't see it in the movies, yet it is in the book.

Gimli's anims probably look silly because he's comic relief in the movies, and thus move weird in the game.

[King Dain II Ironfoot]

True!! And I so.didn't like it!It was too much comedy moments and mostly.with.the Dwarf!!

[Nazgûl]

Back on topic... the model. This week, and the week before has been heavy at work. I've litterally come home only to crash like Arnold in Kindergarden Cop 

 

Anyways, should be done with topology of the body soon...

 

[King Dain II Ironfoot]

Nice!!Your hard work is paying off big time,really great work!

So you have decided to use the Model in which his Shoulde Armor is Visible!?

[Nazgûl]

There are no multimple models. It's the same model, with several meshes (like the cape). The shape of the cape can be adjusted at any time, even right before rigging. So we'll see. I don't find that particual detail as important as you do.
