I'm happy to announce another update, and this time it's actually something as exciting as a render update.
As you probably know, I've never been much for modelling. This time, though, I really tried to make something useful, which turned out to be one of the better skins I've made and also a slight change of the Black Numenorean model. I still can't use any animations (the skeleton moves but not the model ), so this render doesn't have any cool attack stance.
Anyway, this is supposed to be a Numenorean hero called Aran. I thought him up some boring, rainy day out in our cottage, so I've actually made a short description.
Being among the survivors of the Fall of Numenor, Aran lived to see the return to Middle-Earth. He is now an elderly man, but in the past he was the tutor of arms for Isildur and Anarion. In his time, he was one of the finest swordsmen to have walked the island of Numenor.
I do have some abilities for him too, but it doesn't seem right to put it in an update (I'd like Juissi's opinion on them first )

well...his sword is longer and sharper than it looks like in this picture.nice but his sword model looks blunt??, will he be an early hero as he doesnt look as well armoured as other men of numenor??
and yes, he's an early game hero (Numenor really needs one, since almost all other heroes are über-pawnage )

thank you
and btw it takes so much time to find out everything yourself, so I try to use the original skin as a base and paint it over with my own stuff.
