Artcraft - Champion of Stormwind - New Human Male Model
Originally Posted by Blizzard (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)
Welcome to another Artcraft! I’m Chris Robinson, art director on WoW, and today we’re keeping it short and sweet with a reveal of the updated male Human model. As with the previous model redesigns, our goal here was to honor the silhouette and style of the original, while increasing fidelity and fixing some of the big issues we’d identified. The male Human has long been a source of criticism from some of you for his odd proportions and face geometry. We’ve taken great care to ensure we’re not changing so much that he looks completely unlike anything you’d expect, while also correcting some of the more glaring problems. We hope you enjoy the results!






On a slightly separate topic: I wanted to give you a quick heads up that we’re expecting some in-progress models to be hitting the Warlords of Draenor alpha test soon. While these will give you an early look at some of the models, please be aware that they aren’t finished yet. We’ll be presenting final high-quality model captures in future Artcrafts, so stay tuned!

    I don't play Alliance, but I have to say damn I'm glad for this revamp! Just seeing that awful human male model in-game made me twitchy. Now hopefully they change his aggro sound...

    Look good, but not what I imagined it would look like. The face doesn't feel the same.

    Those facial expressions are about as scary as the nipples.

    We need more muscles!

    This is truly amazing, well done art team. The nipples are a little prominent and it looks like human males' dreams of one day having wrists are as yet unfulfilled, but overall an improvement of several orders of magnitude.

    I wonder how expressive they'll be with beards.

    the face looks fantastic, was hoping for less of a hulk style body though

    Still don't like.
    Why don't they add some characteristics for other skin tones?
    I'd like to be able to play a big hulking Native American-esque guy ^_^

    the difference between the old and new face is incredible really.

    Looks perfect. Btw, Warcraft Humans were designed to look like they can go Toe to Toe with Orcs, hence the muscles.
