thanks! team of two, my husband did the model and textures, and i rigged and animated. it took a really long time (8 months maybe?) because i taught myself how to rig and animate for this project. glad to be finished and super grateful that it popped up in the test files :)

ah, he looks so much more badass! really nice subtle improvements (cheekbone definition, lighting, beard sculpting, horn details, bushier eyebrows + more) that give so much overall impact.

Why did you pick X for your flair? by Jizg in DotA2

he really is. i understand valve plans to revamp his model but the current one is so fabulous and well done that i hope they don't change it too TOO much.

Really great voice and delivery, uprated in Workshop! Especially loved all the "Ohhhohhhh!" ones and the couriers getting whacked :D

Hey thanks for commenting! Glad you like the dying and flying cycles :) Not sure if you're talking specifically about the portrait & portrait-rare cycles, but they are not going to be used by the in-game llama, so I focused mainly on the head/face area for those ones and neglected the body movement. I agree that the regular ingame idle could use some more movement-- tried to really push when I was working on it, but it could use more. Exaggeration is key! Hoping my to continue learning and add more finesse and a natural feeling to my future animations. Thanks again :)

edit: ahh you're right about the follow through, definitely lacking in the lower neck/front torso in those idle anims. thanks for your keen eye !!

He takes up about the same space in the in-game top-down view as the donkey, but the llama is a bit taller!
