Grol looks almost the same in the artwork, and Marbas is also muscular, just leaner. Let's say that after becoming a demon, he's now bulking up. Agility isn't that important anymore with hooves (an old joke about why Draenei and Tauren can't be rogues - their hooves clatter too loudly).

Nebiros and Vayre look very similar. A quote from the fandom: "Jezebeth initially had a slightly brighter texture; I think it would be better to darken it a bit" (damn, I wanted to share the original file with separate layers for her body and armor, but I think I accidentally overwrote it).

In the artwork, Nimues has even more horns, but my ability to add them is limited. Although, if I remove the last two pairs from the archive, it also looks pretty good, but it's not lore-accurate. By the way, in a way, because of Nimues, I put the mod on hold for half a year; I couldn't create a decent armor for him. I'm not a very good artist. Although, I probably just got tired, and Nimues was just the trigger. Although the other five heroes were ready last year.

I think Grok already looks very similar, except that his horns are lighter and his armor is red. I didn't want to recolor the armor, and the horns are a different story - I didn't clean them like I would brush my teeth in the morning, so they got sooty during the day.

In my opinion, the succubi turned out well. This is probably the maximum that can be done manually in such an old game. Unless, as I mentioned, the color could be adjusted for Jezebeth? By the way, why does Jezebeth have yellow eyes instead of red? Was that the intention?

Is there a difference from Wayer?

But the appealing version without armor seems to be lost in the annals of history((

In Heroes 5, they are absolutely identical, and in Heroes 6, they added a slight difference, probably so that players could distinguish them.
Vayre is red, with a weak flame.
Nebiros is orange, as if heated to the limit.

I'm just trying to understand if there was a change at all.

By the way, are there any ideas for the last – human – faction yet? I would really like to have a complete collection. And is it possible to create a mod that includes the appearance of ALL heroes when the last faction is finished? I think it would be convenient.

I wouldn't even call these ideas; they're just rough drafts. I'll probably change everything several times anyway. I'll most likely change Laszlo's colors; I don't like this dark blue armor. I'll probably change the horses' colors to match, maybe to the color of Godric's horse, or some other color. I'll try giving the knights the colors of the players; it's strange when a red player comes as a knight in blue. But in any case, I'll look at all this in the game and decide if it works or not.

There will be a General mod; I already have an incomplete version for convenience - xReplacer. I'll publish it when it's fully ready. I need to fix a few things in the already finished mods (for example, maybe someone noticed that Jalib's face is different from what was in the screenshot; I messed up with the version for the website). All of this will be included in the General mod for all factions.

Why not use the campaign Laslo from the 2nd expansion? You can recolor him if you want to match the standard Laslo's color scheme.

Wow. Pretty cool. Although, in my opinion, the demonesses didn't turn out very well. But the demons are just awesome.

Is there something specific you dislike, or were your expectations simply different?
I must admit, I'm incredibly happy that I managed to give them a standard demonic flag, even if it was done in this way.

Grol looks almost the same on the artwork, and Marbas is also muscular, just leaner; let's say that becoming a demon has put him on a bulking diet. Agility isn't needed anymore when he's got hooves (an old joke about why dryads and taurens can't be rogues – their hooves clatter too loudly).

Nebiros and Vayre look very similar. A quote from the fandom: "Jezebeth initially had a slightly brighter texture; I thought it would be better to darken it a bit." (Damn, I wanted to upload the original with separate layers for her body and armor, but I think I accidentally overwrote it.)

On Nimue's artwork, there are even more horns, but my ability to add them is limited.

I think Grok already looks very similar, except that his horns are lighter and his armor is red. Well, I didn't want to repaint the armor intentionally; as for the horns, it's like brushing your teeth in the morning – if you don't do it regularly, they get dirty throughout the day.

Or did you not touch them in the mod?

I'll address you formally.
