-Fix sanity issues. You can test your model without uploading it in the Utility tab, Model Checker. -Site rules demand a collision sphere. -Noticeable shading issues in-game, untick unshaded on relevant materials, -The health bar appears way overhead...

Always great to see new Pandaren resources!

I like the idea of this simple farm, but the execution is a bit out-there for me. No standard buildings feature little guys running around during animations (except the Goblin Merchant I guess, but no build-able, faction-bound ones do), and the texture didn't load so it was just some little black dude? Secondly, the method of putting the building up on platforms seems a bit strange to me; yes most buildings have some kind of platform (usually one that stretches down to cover for uneven terrain), but not like this, I don't think?...

You haven´t fixed issues displayed by the sanity tool. The warnings are referring to duplicate animation keyframes, missing or incorrect keyframes, and visibility. You can fix it by using this tool MDLX Optimizer. The optimizer should address this, but not without issue. The program often deletes keyframes it should not have and it messes with visibility. It is annoying to fix but the sanity checker tells you what keyframes the program deleted so you can just copy the missing key from the previous version of the model. The good news is once you recognize how these errors occur during the modeling process you can avoid most of them and/or fix them a lot quicker. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

It would be better if the camera is facing the backdrop.
