Longer arms.
Dangerous enough to make level 3's (+ level 4's and silly Delfador) run. Only cavalry is fast enough to actually escape but... they aren't that fast underground are they?

The color seems a little too saturated too me, and his arms begin to look like popeye's. Do cave trolls really need that wide a forearm? Overall good work.

In plain cave, nothing can escape this guy; only the Blood Bat can move at the same speed. However, on Grassland, a quick 9-moves cavalry unit or a 10-moves cavalry unit or a Gryphon Master can get away, or various units can move at the same speed.
It's all fun and games until someone loses a lawsuit. Oh, and by the way, sending me private messages won't work. :/ If you must contact me, there's an e-mail address listed on the website in my profile.

That's not an elbow, it's just a bent arm. Hold your arm straight and look at your elbow - it isn't just a place where the arm bends, it also has a different appearance.

Anyone can also bend their limbs without much effort in front of a mirror into all kinds of positions that would mostly receive "that's not how an arm looks like" comments if they'd draw them in the same way in a unit image or portrait. That troll looks perfectly good to me, as much as any troll can. They don't have to have the same type of elbow than humans, or have the same mobility in them. He looks stiff as heck in his shoulders and arms, but exactly that seems to fit the unit well IMHO.Elvish Pillager wrote:That's not an elbow, it's just a bent arm.

That's true, but it is backwards logic. It's easy to assume a position that looks wrong when drawn, but it is not likely that a position drawn in a way that looks wrong can be assumed.zookeeper wrote:Anyone can also bend their limbs without much effort in front of a mirror into all kinds of positions that would mostly receive "that's not how an arm looks like" comments if they'd draw them in the same way in a unit image or portrait..
