We hope you enjoyed our daily updates. Finally we want to present you Thorin Oakenshield, the leader of the companion.
Oh my god, the best dwarf skin EVER! he looks exactly like the film and has Mother f***in orcrist! great job edain team, I've loved these daily updates, don't keep us waiting too long for the next one!
His face is like some ***** guys.Btw his OP!
Holly **** now that's what I can call "King Under the Mountain", and OMG the sword!!! all this is just beautiful :D it deserve a "Like" "+1" "Tweet" and everything^-^
Very solid work so far, but is it just me, or does his face seem flat from the side view at the left?
So Thorin gains Orcrist as you play the game?
very impressive
Impressive job! Just make sure two things,(1)make sure the face not flat from the side view.(2)don't forget the orkshield...
I thought this was a picture from the movie O.o
very well
good job :)
I love him!!! True Dwarves King!
exactly like the real one :)
Nicely done :)
Amazing model and amazing face
Strong hero!
Loyalty, honor, a willing heart, I can ask no more than this.
How is this guy part of Dûrin's linage? He barely looks like a dwarf, especially not like a dwarf in the "Longbeards" clan. At least give him a good beard.
I don't say that i dislike this skin, because this skin is really awesome! It's just wrong to go with the movie Thorin, since this mod's aim is lore-accuracy, right?
We try to follow both, as long as there is no conflict between the book and the movies.
And in this case I don't see a hugh difference. Nowhere in the books was extra mentioned that Thorin had a long beard and so I tink that the explanation of the movie is reasonable. Thorin swore not to wear a long beard as long as Erebor has not been reconquered.
Where was that stated in the film?
Not in the movie, but in the offical book for the movie. There are much more background information to the concepts of the dwarves in the movies.
Will the Dwarves be able to build over 15 heroes including the companion of 13 + King Dain, Gimli and so on, if yes will they not be to overpowered and will it not be to difficult to destroy their castle if all heroes are protecting it?
No it won't cos you have to choose between the three sub-factions Ered Luin (Thorin & co), Iron Mountains ( Dain before the battle of 5 armies) and Erebor ( Dains kingdom at the time of ring war, so Gimli and Gloin e. g.) . You can always have just some of the dwarf heroes
Okay, great idea! Thanks for your answer!
The best Thorin model ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!No words to describe this awesomness!!!But he still will use his axe insted of Deathless right T_T
Might be a stupid question, but how did you get the face to be so well detailed? Aren't there limits to models and textures in the engine? I know modders of CNC zero hour (older engine but the same one, I think, all the ini code is the same) have the problem of working with really low poly character models they can't improve... So is this really how he'd look in game if you scrolled in enough?
Peprhas you can add him hen heavy armor in his upper level something like this ? : Media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com
Where the shield ? O_O
Thorin is almost flawless. very realistic
