It's been a while since the last update, but unfortunately I haven't been able to get anything amazing done for this update. Hopefully everyone will like it anyway

Render of Tharna, an early-game hero of Dorwinion:


King Bladorthin ingame:


Bladorthin using his "Mithril Arrow" power:


Borlach ingame:


Borlach using his "Axe Blow" power:


Rathvith using his "Dwarven Ale" power (ignore the Men fortress, it will be changed soon):


The new capture flag of Dorwinion (it's a bit buggy but I'll try to fix it):


And then it's time for some palantirs again:

Borlach:


King Bladorthin:


That's all for now, I can almost guarantee that next week's update will be better than this one

hehe, the second ludhil has clevage j/k idk which one looks better, theyre both good.


nice effects for mithril arrow. is the flag just a circle tho? anyway, nice update

[IthronAiwendil]

The latest update has been updated with a render of Tharna. Now all the Dorwinian heroes have been shown to the public

[Caluadan]

good work

and the hot version is slightly better.

[Devon]

yeah, i agree with cal. looks better armored too.

[Eonwe]

Sorry, but she does look hot.
Well Ithron I am glad your doing a Dorwinion faction. The east was never mentioned much.

[GilGalad]

WOW!!!!!!!Love the renders and screenshots My favorite is King Bladorthin

[Juissi]

Thats very good Tharna looks like tall hobbit imo

[IthronAiwendil]

The model is based on a Rohan Peasant, binded to the Rhudaur Axethrower anims You should see the Merchants of Dorwinion I'm currently working on, they really do look like hobbits

[Juissi]

Ah but the face, isnt that taken from a hobbit skin ?

[IthronAiwendil]

It's taken from a skin called GUVendor.dds, but I merged it with another face to make it look different

This was a nice update, but Tharna... well... he looks quite old to me (about 30 years) - while the original concept (and the campaign) was about a young boy (around 17-18)...

Also, his swords shouldn't have such big crosses.

The rest is pretty good.

[IthronAiwendil]

I'll try to improve the skin to make him look younger... And I could change the swords, even though I like them the way they are now...

[IthronAiwendil]

Just a small update for today, a bigger one will be released on sunday.

Adventurers, special infantry of Dorwinion (Still haven't decided where they should be built from):


Tharna ingame:


Merchants of Dorwinion and their leader, Dasron:

The Merchants of Dorwinion look quite interesting... what are they holding ?! Axes ? Spears ? Or (eww...) shovels ? I couldn't decide...

The Adventurers look promising, but don't forget that I made them with a weapon-toggle

[{IP}jimmyman]

no i think the merchants are holding the same hand-axe thing gothmog (orc) did

[IthronAiwendil]

No, the weapon is actually an extremly short (and impactical spear). It's taken from the Rhudaur Spearmen model, edited and reskinned a bit

[{IP}jimmyman]

OH i see, that is cool, like a one-handed spear, maybe a shelid could be used with them, but just an opinion

[Devon]

the adventurers a hobbit! seriously, is that the model? he looks kinda short...

[IthronAiwendil]

You're right, the Adventurer is based on a hobbit model, and so is the Merchant. In fact, they both use the same model, but different skins and subobjects Ingame they don't look that small, as you can see from the Merchant screen.
