Ohhh! It looks great, look at our Aelruil back in the flesh! I like how battle-worn he seems but refusing to give up on the fight?

He’s like the police offer that’s just one day from retirement but they keep on pulling him back in.

A Glimpse Into the Past
Found a great voice actor for Acrona, Aisyah on Fiverr, who I hope to collaborate with on some future projects! This scene was useful to test the waters.

Thank you kindly Cherryblosom!
As some people know, one of WoW’s early artists Samwise has left Blizzard after decades. Here’s s nice video from the guy with some soul-searching (no drama, sorry AD):
I remember adoring the pandaren art he did eons ago before Mists of Pandaria was announced. Hope he finds fulfilment creating his own things!

I have to admit I lost a lot of respect for him when he went into NFTs, but he is still an amazing artist.
I haven’t watched the video since I’m at work but will give it a watch when I get home for sure, since it’s always very interesting seeing people’s experiences from the people who works or worked there, so thank you for posting it!

Him getting into NFTs is something I wasn’t aware of until now! At least the NFT frenzy seems to have quieted down, though we then got AI image generators to fuss about instead.

I’ll miss him a lot, for his artworks are incredibly nostalgic to me and his style was the true soul of Warcraft, something which I reminisce about and wish there was more of nowadays.

his Illidan original artwork is still iconic to me.

I think it was Samwise who largely created what we think of as “the Warcraft aesthetic”?

Precisely! Visuals of Warcraft were after all, made by him firsthand, to my knowledge.
And all those WC3 hero designs. Me love.
