FEEDBACK: new Goblin models

Female goblin feedback:

I put this together to get a better impression of how Soxxy will look, since eyebrows are messed up on wowhead (eyebrows show on skin 1, correct face textures for faces 6-10 show on skins 2-9). Still the wrong skin colour, but oh well.

I think our lips are a bit too large, and our chin/jawline looks a bit chunkier than they used to. My eye colour has changed quite a lot, going from what looked like a red-brown to a very light brown. Eyes are looking a bit baggier than I imagined, I didn’t think my face looked that tired.

I think the casting/combat face animations could use some facial expressions similar to this pose from the Blizzcon preview, which has a lot more attitude than they currently do. The current facial expressions seem more pissed than someone with a pocket full of gizmos and grenades ought to be.
I also can’t help but notice the Blizzcon preview model’s eyebrows matched their hair colour, would be a nice option to have somewhere.

We seem to be experiencing distortion on chest/shirt/tabard slots, as they seem to be positioned higher than they were previously. Spitfire Breastplate exposes a lot of underboob as a result, while just about every other chest slot is less revealing than before.

I really like the burp at the end of the /eat animation. The /bow and /flex animations are great too.

Expanding ear/nose/chin combinations, or splitting them into separate customisation options would be absolutely fantastic for goblin characters as a whole. I really like the skull earring option, but it’s only available with a super pointy nose.

Also, now is as good a time as ever to continue my campaign of asking for a pink hair for goblins. Deadmines goblins, Darkmoon Faire goblins , and a few more NPCs I can’t remember off the top of my head, have taunted us with their pink hair since Cataclysm. I’m aware that player death knights have access to that colour, but I believe there should be a universal option for all goblins. Players of both factions deserve equal opportunities to be ganked by short, pink haired rogues.
