Sub-race names & templates tied to the new customization options

I just tried that, to see if anybody cares to share the love (or hatred, lol) over there:

Love the idea. I shared it on the High elf discord. I told them Moira made these. They all loved it, especially the Tattoos.

Well what do you know, the red shirt guy has shared his love in our favor and now the community is responding. :smiley:

And all thanks to Moira’s concept art!

Sure thing, thanks, and very glad it was liked! Although I read on Twitter that people are opposing the use of Quel’dorei as name for a Horde-side ‘high’ elf as they feel it would be a political statement of sorts.

On the bright side however, I have incredibly not met any rage against the Alliance version of it. Giving the subject, I’d call that a big win.

Great to know, thanks for you for sharing on Twitter in the first place!

That’s not the first time I read requests for a Leper Gnome customization.
Sounds as legit as many others that were already implemented…

Would you be able to name any more missing gnome customizations?

Clockwork gnomes, probably something they could add to mecha-gnomes at some point.

Hopefully this pleases you, then!

Feel free to share it whenever you feel that Gnome-lovers might appreciate it, obviously. :slight_smile:

Popped it into the ‘Gnome Appreciation Thread’ as I think they may be interested :slight_smile:

As promised, I have reworked the original mockups for Dwarves and Trolls.

Wildhammer and Dark Iron Dwarves:
(tbh I am still rather uncertain about how to best handle allied races)

May be a good idea to switch to these in the main post?

I have an idea… can I edit your mockups to show you?

Sure thing! Just please do not forget me. :wink:

As a matter of facts, I can send you the source files. Will write you in-game.

I love all the work you are doing. The Troll tribes, the different dwarves and all the others. Thank you for it. It’s great.

It’s such an amazing concept idea, I really hope it’s get noticed and perhaps included in some way. I simply love it. This would go along way for customization and even make the RP aspect of the game bigger.

The Green skin looks amazing! I’m still hopeful it will be added. It’s not the same fighting the Horde if they don’t have Forrest trolls. I want some Warcraft 2 vibes :heart_eyes:

All your ideas are fantastic!

I think the Ice Troll looks amazing too, I wanted to go make one :rofl:

I agree with both of you. Green skin for Forest Trolls would really give some “family reunion” vibes, uniting the tribes and strong WC2 nostalgia which I am all for.
I would also love having Ice Trolls too.

While I was at it, I thought I’d mention that some extra jewelry, even as simple as broad metal loops and a necklace matching the hairbands included by some of the current haircuts, would also allow roleplayers some better Highborne customization.

Edit: Mind you, for the jewelry I am basically quoting everlastingblackjack’s Reddit post. Some credit is also due to Simaia as I have edited the haircut putting two different styles together as I have seen her do in her 3D art.
