Maia approved your transmog'
It's really a shame that the bottom pieces have a lower quality than the rest, but nevertheless, I'd give it 10/10!
My DK. I know the weapon doesn't entirely match but getting the one with the purple gem might as well impossible by now when the server's deader than a graveyard.
And my warlock. Took forever to get the staff, and then it ends up looking blue rather than green because of the enchant. :I

I like warlock more! 8/10
7/10!
Good color scheme but your picture doesn't reveal too much
That... is sexy. I've always loved the deep red of the T10H set, but I always hated the random green. I would compensate by equipping the Headless Horseman's helmet, like so:

In my opinion, please don't listen to the people saying your weapons have to match. Like, how addicted to monochromatic armor sets have people become to suggest that a weapon should "Match" armor. Do you guys even stop to imagine what some of this shit would look like in a realistic scenario? A soldier on the battlefield making sure his hilt matched his fancy helmet tassel?
I love the weapons. Borean smasher, I believe right? I love how they look like huge piston fists with the added bonus of being bladed, just the thing that a more savagely inclined Rogue would be using, imo.
To each their own though. Just a perspective. I give the right set a solid 8.5/10

Don't get me wrong. If the person has a Blood elf theme going and want to pick a blood elf staff to go with it, that's awesome a good direction to take it. However if a person wants to have a troll theme and chooses an awesome tribal dagger that's black and purplish instead of the matching red, it always bugs the shit out of me when someone comes in and says "Dude, horrible weapon choice. It doesn't match the color of the rest of every single piece that you're wearing!" like we're all supposed to be some tone-washed blankets.
I hear things like that far more often than I'm comfortable with transmog discussions. I mean it's not as if we're working with a limitless selection of pieces here or as if we have the opportunity to pull up a color palette wheel and intentionally select the perfect colors. That being said, I'm always impressed when people like the person I quoted has an impressive build with rarely used weapons.
Besides, far as I recall, your sets are pretty fantastic and don't have color-themed weapons. (teasing)
Edit: Anyway I should probably contribute after all that derail. Here's my baby paladin that just dinged the other night with some stuff he had in the bank minx with some ToES drops. Not bad for not having farmed anything yet.:

The cool thing is that if there's a weapon or two out there that you just adore, you can use the weapons as the starting point to build your transmog around, rather than trying to find a weapon to match your armor.
This set started with one of my favorite guns--
And sometimes it's just really satisfying to find that one perfect weapon--
It's all about how we approach transmog through, and there's really no wrong way. There's nothing wrong with your more realistic take on things. I also don't think there's anything wrong with considering the entire shebang to be an ensemble. I love it when the transmog not only looks great, but complements the character actually wearing it-- their skintone, haircolor, eyecolor and all of that fun stuff.
This set looks its best on that jade green skintone--
However, it's worth noting I don't actually deduct points for not doing this. You just get bonus points if you do it well. I've given out 11/10s for people who clearly have put a lot of thought and effort into putting together the perfect transmog for their character.
I'd have to give 10/10 to all three of the ones above. I especially love the Monk complete with the staff and all. While I personally never cared for that helm model when I was playing my Rogue back then, it actually works really well on Orcs and with that set.
Anyway, here's my Death Knight. For a while now I've been using the Magma Plate heroic set without a helm. I got the T6 Warrior-lookalike helm by chance last night while trying to farm the blue version from Illidari Council for a different set. While it isn't the most original transmog and relies heavily on tier, I still proudly wear it as it's one of the few DK sets that isn't black, purple or blue.
Also, because I'm proud of them, here's my Rogue (inspired by Maelthael) and Mage
Mage is amazingggg! wich set is it ?
Sure, I understand that. There are some weapons that aren't in the color scheme that work because of the magic of contrast colors! Like if you had a red/black set, purple or blue weapons will work because they're the direct opposite. There are other examples as well, but that one's a classic.
There's only 1 weapon in my sets that's a placeholder (looking at you DK sword! /glare), just SOL on that one for now... QQ
And I wish I could hide enchants for my warlocks staff, it has too much of a blue look rather than the nice green...and it took forever to get it as well. QQ
And that set looks pretty nice, but the consortium tabard would make it look real good! 8/10
And I'll contribute again when I stop being lazy and get my paladin hauled through SW...I want that sexy sexy sword...
@Sakashima Im a sucker for that dk set with weapon, ive seen it a few times but it looks good, not a fan of the helm. 7/10
