A Rabid Wolf... Which is a bit... big...

And the old units, so you can compare them.

The two things that I see that you could do for the blood artian.
1: Give him claws that look like they are there, don't hide them in fists.
2: Give him a more defined head and chin, right now they blend into his chest giving his face no definate impact. More monsterouse eyes and facial apperiance would realy help allot.

I'd say that all the warg are a definate improvment, though as you said the rabid wolf is a little big, and the texture on his back is a little odd. The olny peice left that you have not done is the Garou. The rest of these will be implimented into the next version.

Good Job.

Thanks, I'll see if I can do anything with that.

Yah, I though that if I was going to make a come-back I might as well do it good. Thanks though.

I'll start working on the Garou as soon as possible, which probably means that he will be done by Sunday at the latest. But I have been known to break promisses like these, so don't count on it to much.

EDIT:
How 'bout this? He got a little bigger... Yah, I'm suffering from CBS.

That looks better, but I don't think it's quite there yet. I think something needs to be done about the head.

I assume that white stuff around his head is supposed to be hair. It is not giving that impression. It might look better if you took that away entirely (not sure havn't seen what it would look like). Another couple things you could try would be to give him a neck, or give him a more angular. You could also go for red eyes or visable fangs, or something allong those lines.

The head is the olny part that seems a problem though, the rest of the body seems about the right amount of threat/unnatural.

I agree, the head looks so dull.

The new Warg are better, but I think the weapons still need improvement. The new stance for the rabid is awesome, though it is quite big. Also, I think the head on the old Flesh Artisan was fine.

Yah, I need to practice my weapons. The Warrior Warg as well as the Moonblade will definetly get some revision in that area.

Worked on the Flesh Artisan for a bit, what do you think?

It is a great improvement indeed. But that Rabid Wolf's belly looks more like that of a crocrodrile, ehm crocodile.

His belly or his back? 'Cause I can imagine that you think his back looks like that, but his belly is barely visible.

Yeah, his back and the implied belly.

An improvment, it still looks like his head is attached directly to his chest, but that is not a huge problem, infact it is unsettleing in a thematic way. I have a slight prefrence to the top model. I don't have a problem with it, but it still feels like there is some improvment to be made. However unless someone points out what this is, I'm going to put this into the next version allong with the warg.

The pack leader's sword forces him to the side of the hex instead of him being centered as shown in the unit tree there. Could you have him hold the sword at a different angle so that he isn't dancing at the edges o the hex?
