Lovely new models, yet the armor pieces still go into their bodies :\/
Lovely new models, yet the armor pieces still go into their bodies :\/\r\rUnfortunately clipping will always be an issue to to differing sizes in armor (shoulderpads for example).
Lovely new models, yet the armor pieces still go into their bodies :\/\r\rUnfortunately clipping will always be an issue to to differing sizes in armor (shoulderpads for example).\r\rNah, I don't think it has to be an issue. They have the animations, so when they're making some new shoulder pieces or whatever, they can see exactly how much clipping there is. They model the shoulder pieces for the Human male or whichever, then scale them and position them on each separate race and gender combination they have. I feel that before they say they're finished, they should run some animations first to check for clipping, and then change it if there is any because clipping looks really bad to me. But Blizzard doesn't mind clipping, so they don't take care to avoid it. They prefer to have the most absurdly large shoulder pieces in the world, so even if there's a ton of clipping, it's all worth it in their eyes.
there is always going to be a whiner no matter what lol..
For the first time in forever (8) I realy am thinking about making a female orc, they look extremely cool with the new models, cant wait for the troll models tho!
I like all what they have done but love the Female Gnome, she remind me of a pissed off Rapunzel :)

It comes down to this. Do you drastically reduce the artistic freedom that the artists have when designing new gear in order to prevent clipping in a handful of rarely used or rapid animations?\r\rThey chose from the beginning to have over-the-top shoulders and weapons and I doubt they will ever change that. It is an artistic choice that has been consistent throughout the last 9 years.\r\rTry AOC sometime. they have more realistic graphics.. all your gear basically lookes like brown, tan or grey rags.
Where's the troll love? ... Actually, nevermind. That just sounds gross.
Just noticed...gnomes have five toes but only three fingers and a thumb?
Finally, folks run like they actually have a purpose. I am dying to see the Trolls. If Vol'jin is to be looked to as an example ('course he is, mon!) they should be awesome
Why do the gnomes have four fingers on each hand and five toes on each hand?
Liking those expressions. I think the Tauren's beg is funny and cool.

Kill me! I'm Horde and I love the new female gnome!
Wrong, they have two seperate bones for each shoulder to attach to that scaling them makes the shoulders change size, they're the SAME model of shoulders for EVERY race just different rotation and scale. Helm does have a different model though (Ment to do this at Kazaren ><)
do the new models seem smaller to anyone else?
Hope troll models will be shown before expansion, tauren model looks so strong.
Noooooooo, still plate tshirts ! All plate armor should look like Arthas' or Varian's. I guess its gonna take another 10 years to do real Plate armor :(
With the way the gnomes' new expressions and facial features are, it reminds me a lot of disney characters.
