I agree about the archers and the elven archers, but not about the druids!
Here's a screenshot to prove it...!

These sticks with eyes and a beard don't look very nice.

Here is a screenshot to confirm that...!
I meant the regular druids and, how should I put it, their torso. (This is very noticeable if you look at the creature info screen and catch the moment when the druids' shirt rises).

Yes, their waists are the same...
But I don't see anything wrong with that...
Is it really that critical for you?

What’s so special about them having the same waist size? Let’s just say they live in the same forest and, therefore, have the same diet. That’s where the similarity lies. I don’t like the dragons’ appearance… they just don’t seem right… they should be more like the elven dragons from Might and Magic 3. I have nothing against them as a unit, though.

These don't look like the pictures. They don't resemble stumps with arms and eyes. They just look like a tree with arms.
Ents are supposed to be living trees, with leaves and branches... not living old stumps...

Forgive me for being blunt, but the archers are just ugly. You should use the old, good elves from the third game. Elves shouldn't be so stupid, they just shouldn't be!!!
They are normal elves... what's wrong with them?

I don't like Ents in any of the games for some reason. They don't seem like anything special, but they just aren't appealing to me as creatures. I don't like them. By the way, dragons were definitely better in the third game; the ones here aren't particularly impressive in their base form, but the upgraded ones are simply gorgeous, in my opinion.

I like these; they represent the full power of plants. They just need a more imposing look.

Dragons, on the other hand, were definitely better in Heroes 3; the ones here aren't particularly impressive in their base form, but the upgraded ones are simply beautiful, in my opinion.
Ents are beautiful, but there's no way to depict them beautifully in a way that makes them look like majestic trees. Since their size is limited, that's why we have these "puppet-like" Ents instead. But the Ents in Heroes 3 turned out better. In Heroes 5, the Ent-Barbarian looks great; I don't like the Ancient Ent because of its yellow leaves, it doesn't look very good, and the regular Ent looks like an alien, like a log on stilts from the beta, but overall they look pretty good.

I don't think of Ents as ugly; rather, I agree that they are beautiful and majestic. It's just that when they were drawn, they turned out to be a bit strange. I simply don't like them because of their speed; in Heroes 3, they were slow, and I still can't shake that first impression. Sympathy and antipathy play a big role here, and it's not just based on their appearance. :smile43:

As strange as it may sound, I voted for my favorite unit – the upgraded archer. Why did they put dry leaves on their head and draw some kind of mess on their face?! Is that some kind of camouflage?! You can see such a camouflaged unit even through a wall... But the unupgraded archers are well-made.

Yes, they simply drew everyone in green first, and then they wanted to somehow make the upgrades stand out, and they made everyone brown (master archers, high-level druids, ancient ents, old unicorns with yellow coloring) + before, instead of emerald dragons, there were probably golden dragons. By the way, Exe, are the elven archers male or female? They have some kind of feminine face, but there are no signs of breasts; they are kind of strange.
Here, sympathy and antipathy play a big role, based not only on appearance.
But the topic is about appearance)))

And I just can't perceive PURELY the appearance. I simply don't like it. And in general, I just don't find them appealing. Just like, for example, a dress with an AMAZING design, but red (my least favorite color) (girls will understand). So, it's the same with these, only it's less clear what I don't like about their appearance.
Elven archers are more like guys ;) IMHO

That's true, but the Greymane are desperate guys, not improved, emotional baboons. I prefer the ones with curly leaves... mmm...)

Yes, they initially drew all of them green, and then they wanted to somehow differentiate the upgraded units, so they made them all brown (master archers, high-level druids, ancient ents, old unicorns with yellow coloring) + before, instead of emerald dragons, there were probably golden dragons. By the way, Ex, and what gender are the elven archers? They have some kind of feminine face, but there are no signs of breasts; they are kind of strange.

And the topic about appearance...

Magnus, are you talking about the unupgraded ones? No, they are definitely not women; they just have a face that is drawn in an unclear way... And as you yourself said, there are no breasts there:D ;) And in the biography, it says that they are men.
