I present you, the Chiefest and Greatest of Calamities
Looking sexy! :D
My teeth are swords! My breath is flame! )) :D
This is amazing work, love the model and texture! cant wait till its out...soon...very very soon...right? :D
Woow.What the f*** is it!Really amazing
Wanna say something.Smaug must be stronger than balrog.And his spell point must be more than balrog.Silmarillion says that "dragons are much more stronger than balrogs"
Dragons of 1st Age.
Possibly Scatha last really great dragon, but not Smaug, he is only `close` for Morgoth`s spawn of dragons.

i dont think dragons are stronger than Balrogs, maybe great dragons of the First Age but i doubt Smaug is stronger than Balrog. Besides, how can he defeat a Balrog, with fire? :)
I just tell what silmarillion says.And I remember definitely it writes ''dragons are stronger than balrog'' in silmarillion.I read that book 2 times :)
******* AMAZING!!!!
TELL THE EDAIN GUYS THIS CAN BE DONE!
That good job, congratulations, perhaps a more little red body and black scales, and slightly longer neck. amazing work!

Marvelous!!! Even the creators of the art design in the movie would envy such a detailed work ;)
An awesome work indeed! Smaug will be epic^^
I agree, the neck could be a little longer though.
unfortunately if i make his neck longer, then the model will become weird since it will not be bounded with his animations properly, same goes with his tail.. :(
I see :/
Still awesome nonetheless :D
wooooooooooooooow, excellent work
It is an amazing job.
Is a highly successful design.
How did you make him with only two wings and two feet?! He is epic!!
Love him. Such a shame he is not permanent now though :s
i removed the front legs and bind his wings to his front legs position, so when he moves, the wings act like front legs. It looks decent ingame but i yet have some testing to do ;)
Great!Amazing job!
nice very nice
Amazing model and texture! This is the first mod that makes movie Smaug, with 2 legs :) The best BFME2 Smaug ever!!!
Please..tell me that you are going to add him as a hero...
he is too strong to be a regular hero so he will stay as a summon only. Besides, Smaug properly doesnt belong in any faction because "Smaug pays allegiance to no one" :)
Hehe, you are right about that! ;D Btw, will Thranduil be visible in this patch? For a reason i cannot see him after the patch 3.0 bugfix ;/
Keep going! That looks so cool :)
great job.i have 2 questions for you:
1.why you are alone at mod?
2.where is dain's pig :)
1. im alone because i choosed that way. When i started modding no one had the time to show and help me with the modding so i decided to do it all alone. Besides, im a wery unpredictable person and thing oftenly doesn not go acording to plan, and if i have a team of people, that means they demend of me and my guidance, and i dont want people to wait. I only have KingDain as a consultant and tester, a couple of guys who help me sometimes and thats it
2. There is no pig for now, maybe later :)
Which animations are you using for him MorgulLord?
And also, in the present version of the mod he cannot fly. Will he be able to fly in 3.0?
he is using animations from the Summoned Dragon. I dont believe he will fly in the next version since the dragon doesnt have flying animations :)
Oh pity. Anyway he is still awesome :)
Morgulord greetings!
Beautiful mod ...
One question ... has included the easterling sub-faction of Mordor somewhere?
Another idea: you have not thought to include Alatar and Pallando in the mod? So Were the five wizards ...
Greetings!
Easterlings are not a mini faction, they can only be summoned from the spellbook. About Allatar and Pallando, i dont have the time to include them also, but i will manage to include them in some future versions
Oh, what a pity ...
I would have liked the idea of recruiting easterlings from barracks or camp, or the inn; as the Haradrim, if they are recruitable from his Haradrim palace...
I don´t know why the difference, as both the Haradrim as the Easterlings are support units Mordor ...
Anyway, great job Morgul Lord ...
I look anxious to the launch of BOTTA 3.0!
Sorry for my bad English...
Greetings!
i choose Harad as a mini faction because you can recruit cavalry and stronger archers, in which aspects Mordor is lacking, and also Mumakil of course :)
And Easterlings serve as a very strong summon because they are elite units..
And when will the new image of Legolas in armor from the movie The Hobbit?
OMG, awesome work!
Maybe a little more work on the rings but great model.:)
