why is this not a thing O-O

[autopsy]

Wasn't the darkmoon carousel a winner of this contest in previous years? it ended up in-game so seeing that mount show up wouldn't be to far fetched.

That hyena mount's sweet. I'd like to see it with more earthy colors and with less clunky armor on its ankles.
Something about it from the side also looks like (if it were implemented) it'd be one of those mounts that doesn't scale well with bigger characters like tauren. Humm.

I think concepts for a spider mount would be cool. ^^

i like them both tbh

dem swords. dat hyena

The armor set is boring.

The Hyena needs a small redesign, but geometry looks good to me.

[The Madgod]

The mount and armor set both have terrible color coordination. They're practically eyesores. It'd be easy enough to fix, but they don't look good in those pictures.

Someone else agrees with me!

Seriously though, that armor is just a cacophony of color... looks so bad. Even if the colors are set up well I don't think the armor looks all that amazing. Personally the sword's okay.

That armor/sword is almost too detailed for wow. Looks like concept art instead of ingame stuff.

[ReleaseDay]

Cool mount

[dokilar]

eh, the armor doesnt look too bad but i find that mount hideous

[Fungj]

I'm not a fan of that mount color but it's a cool idea.

[Arrashi]

The sword/armor is really meh, it looks like someone couldnt make up they mind and just tossed all ideas they had into it.

The mount is in dire need for reskin/recolor. Otherwise its ok.

DOWN WITH THE NON BELIEVERS OF THE VIOLET CANINES @_@

Is this to promote your fanart or is this something from the artbooks?

I respectfully disagree. I loved the combos when I saw the winners post the other day. Just gorgeous IMO.
Here's hoping Blizz uses that mount to some effect, alot of hard work went into it.

Dat sword.../drool

[Whales96]

That hyena should have been the gnome racial mount. It would fit them to ride dogs into battle.

[Chadina]

Really neat models! I would ride that Hyena into battle any day. The one thing that bugs me is how tiny those Draenei's hooves are. They don't look like they could support her weight, let alone all that armor.
