Altered female worgen

Description

I have always been frustrated by how Blizzard designed the female worgen, a first for me since generally they do a spot on job. The whole thing felt really rushed for me, with only 4 fingers (from human's 5), bulgy eyes that are disproportionate to the body, an uneven feel of fierce and 'sexy' in all the wrong places (like over-the-top eyelashes and makeup...IT'S A GOD-DAMNED WEREWOlf BLIZZARD STOP BEING SEXIST!!!).

So when I was perusing my World of Warcraft screenshots i came across this one and decided that i would 'fix' the female worgen model, giving it glowing eyes, removing the stupid eyeliner, giving the spikey teeth in the right spot (the canines are too far apart in the original model), blending the mane into the neck using a phased colour from black to grey (instead of it sticking out and making the neck look like a large emu's). Also some fur texturing-honestly there is no fur texturing on face or body-no sticking out fur or anything-which makes the original model feel flat and not feral or rugged at all.

I also beefed up the legs a bit because they are way too thin, it looks ridiculous >.>.

Unfortunately Cataclysm seemed quite rushed to make the holiday sales period and female worgen were one of quite a few things that suffered.

I hope in my heart that blizzard eventually gets around to finishing what could have been THE most bad-ass thing in WoW (and also showing they gave a shit about their female player base..some of us want to play female werewolves, NOT male ones). god knows there's enough male werewolves in popular culture, it would be nice to see a shift -no pun intended t.t.

In fact a female werewolf is quite the feminist symbol- a strong, angry, independent woman that doesnt take shit from anyone. Yep, sounds good for me lol, where do I sign up? :P

Hope anyone who looks likes these changes I made and prays with me that they will fix it soon! :) (but hey, at least they finally fixed worgen laugh sounding like a chicken! Silver lining...)

Design changes are mine but the original concept, screenshot footage and artwork belong to Blizzard Entertainment.

Hey, I know it's kinda late to post this but I also agree with you and thanks to WoD rework models I have hope that next expansion after that will rework cataclysm races. :D
