You can’t make digital art with a pencil, so no matter how technically challenged you are, you eventually find a way to transfer those lessons learned from unforgiving pencil and paper – to unforgiving Wacom and pen. Getting realistic textures into digital art is important for a hand painted feel, so mixing traditional and digital techniques whenever possible is a bonus. The textures on this guy were blocked out in Photoshop, then layered with hand painted acrylic textures to add depth, and finally finished in Photoshop. Also, a benefit of referencing existing art – I originally created this concept for the Nerubians in ‘Wrath of the Lich King’. We decided to go in a different direction, so I held onto the concept and dusted it off when it came time for the Mantid in ‘Mists of Pandaria’. While most of the design veered away from this overall direction, the overlapping stomach plates were one of my favorite parts and eventually showed back up on the Mantid. His pecs also got much larger, but that’s mainly because the Mantid work out.

I would have been a fool not to.

What we have here is a drawing of a Pandaren Monk created for Mists of Pandaria.  If you’re into the succulent flavor of Panda flesh, these fellows would be a good source of said meat-flesh.  But be warned, they’re much harder to hunt than the ones who mostly just sleep in trees.

Pretty sure that Aggra sent Thrall off to Draenor with a “This is your bullshit with Hellscream Go’el, I’m not fixing it.”

Trapped in Draenor

Lore-wise, your char doesn’t know for sure if s/he will make it back when you go.

I guess that answers how RPers could do WoD at the start.

Oh this will make the rp alot more interesting

Hell, Khadgar calls it a suicide mission when you first speak to him. 

Which, when you think about it, makes Thrall leaving Aggra and two kids along behind even more bullshit.

Disregarding the fact that Thrall shouldn’t be going to Draenor to begin with, how is losing both parents any less bullshit?
