The RotWK: HD Edition is a model pack featuring both reworked and all-new unit and hero models for Rise of the Witch-king. Our goal is to overhaul RotWK's unit and hero graphics while maintaining online intercompatibility and smooth gameplay. RotWK: HD Edition is being developed by Mathijs and RiderOfRohan.
I took inspiration from John Howe's concepts for the Witch-king's armor. Did you know they built a very different suit of armor, and actually shot scenes for RotK with it? Take a look: Thelandofshadow.com
It also appeared in the wonderful RotK videogame. I wanted to pay tribute to this awesome design, and shake things up a bit: the Witch-king is unlikely to have worn the same armor for millenia.

**** son, talk about an improvement.
Well, despite my love for the EA design you have sold me on this one. I must admit, the EA design always did look a little cartoony. Now that I see the helmet with the rest of the armour it does look great!
Have you thought about adding a little bit of crimson somewhere on the robes? Just in reference to the original game design. It might not look good, I don't know.
That's what house color is for.
Are you changing the house colors? I loathe the 1.09/2.02 colors
House colour represents the team colour not the colour of the unit's design which is what I'm talking about. Like in the original design. Besides, I have house colours deactivated because I like my units to actually look nice instead of bright green or yellow.
You can just deactivade it? Where?
awesome, excellent design
he was shoted just after that^^
I 'unno, will the Mordor version be changed in this way too?
Nah.
Have you seen the design of the witch king from the internet game shadow of angmar ??
I loved you model, It looks more young and clean them RotK witch king what fits perfectly. You hited right in the place !
tbh on my own opinion (i don't know about the others) but i didn't like and i know the fact that this model is wel made and also with hd textures but i kindof like the original witch king
The armor is good but change the helmet to original only black
not the witch king.... bad helment... nice work on model, but its not the same with out his original helmet
Aye, bring back that helmet. Rest looks fine.
Hey that's not the Witch King, that's Melkor, I mean Morgoth.
Bad *** model but nothing beats that iconic helmet. Say what you will about Peter Jackson's films, the Witch King was awesome looking.
use original helmet with this armor
