That is *excellent* stuff!
Though I've got to say at this point... units either ported from Myth 3, or mimicking Myth 3, will most likely have a very polygonal look to them, whereas units modeled in TFL or M2 always had a rather organic feel.
It might be an odd thing to look at side by side.
Great work Zeph!

Hey - if you've already taken all the pictures, Cid and I will finish it for you. I'd happily exempt myself from the credits just to see another Trow unit out there.

I agree but its still great... Zeph could always... smooth out the pointy places and at least make it semi-organic.

Oh aye, it is indeed magnificent work.
One must keep in mind - now that we're dealing with pre-rendered sprites, poly counts aren't a problem anymore (unless you're impatient about render times).

I thought because he had a full armor he looked better with pointy places. There is no *organic* part on that trow, he's just wearing a full body armor.

Too true - I was actually going to add that this wouldn't matter as much with a unit that's wearing a shitload of armour.
However it's certainly something worth considering for anyone who ever ports a less... "robot"ee kind of Myth 3 unit.

You didn't check the crop bitmaps box when importing did you? (checking that box makes all collections tons bigger, even though the images become smaller in the collection...).
If you did try it without it.

my bitmaps are just too big, 300x300... 
I thought it was a good size when i rendered, guess not from what I see lol.
Ill shrink to 150x150

Zeph how many sides do you have
i found out that for it to look nice you need 0*,30*,60*...
not just 0*,45*,90*..
Tho i need a tag that has that, because normal trow has only 0*-180* i need 0*-360.
Myne is at (*) x 103 and it looks good.

almost done
He is one tough bastard. I put him against 60 berserks and the very last berserk killed him, was a nice fight
Thing is, he is slow, so the way to kill him is to throw everything you have at him.
