Harpy (April 4th, 2006)

[aaglo]

Hello!

Here is a dark-elf harpy from warhammer fantasy (sure, they don't exist only on warhammer... ) Enjoy

Here's some civilopedia info from the games workshop website:
If you ever visit the distant city of Karond Kar, you will witness a spectacle that will fill you with elation and fear in equal measure. Upon the thermals of the sacrificial pyres soar the Harpies - winged beasts with a savage, primeval beauty. Some claim they are the souls of slain Witch Elves given form, others that they are a manifestation of Khaine in his aspect of the predator. They are creatures of Khaine, that is for sure, for they delight in the tormenting of their victims and feast upon raw flesh.

Here are the files:

Here's animated preview of the attack:

ADDITIONAL UPDATE

Here's a Chaos fury (it's only a colour conversion of the harpy).

[The Last Conformist]

Quite nice.

Harpies are one fo the units GW has changed the looks of rather a few times ...

 

[Storm Grunt]

Thats great! I love it AAglo
A big o'l B*tch slap from bat-girl lol

 

[Spacer One]

YES!!! A HARPY!!! I was worried noone would make it, so I never requested it...its wonderful...Narnia owes you much Aaglo...

Side Note: Aaglo, is it possible for you to squeeze a satyr/faun into your list?...

 

[Vuldacon]

Wonderful Fantasy Unit aaglo...You have a Flair for the "Strange and Unusual" Your Dark-Elf Harpy is a Very appealing fantasy unit

 

[aaglo]

@Storm_Grunt,
B*tch slap - that's a good one

@Spacer_one
I don't know what a satyr/faun is...? (currently I believe that satyr is a form of comedy, and faun - with an 'a' put in the end is just a latin word for animal).

 

[utahjazz7]

Oh, that is awesome. The wing flapping looks incredible, aaglo.

 

[woodelf]

Incredible animations aaglo. She's one tough looking Broad.

 

[Kyriakos]

Hm, you should try getting a job in the computer games industry, aaglo, really

Great work

 

[Gaias]

I just downloaded this POV Ray that aaglo uses... and all I did when I seen it was go

How in the hell do you take all those letters and numbers and change it into this?

 

[Mirc]

I'm not an expert with unit graphics but the animation of the wings seems fantastic!

 

[Darque]

Looks great. Will use this unit in my Dragonia mod

@aaglo
A satyre is one of the creatures who followed Bacchus in the Greek mythology ; it may look like this (and it would be great to see it animated) :

 

[Stormrage]

I think I can explain it in way aaglo would understand, its a bestigor - Disney stlye

From the waist down he is a goat, and from the waist up he is a man, with small hornes

The harpy looks amazing! I`m sure lotsa mods will use it

 

[mrtn]

I can make a guess at one mod that will use it, at least.

Thanks mate!

 

[LMR]

great work

 

[BadKharma]

Great job you really are developing quite a flair for the fantasy.

 

[T-mun]

@Stormrage
For sure!!! A lovely little Bestigor with tender eyes like Bambi's mother!!!!

 

[Ares de Borg]

Cool little flyer, reminds me of Heroes IV where those creatures were quite annoying. Good work (as usual)!

 

[Plotinus]

I think this is one of your best. Beautifully modelled and animated.

I'm starting to wonder - is there any unit aaglo can't make?
