For all those that don't remember, the Vanilla female troll model looks like this -
One of my biggest criticisms against Blizzard's design team is its designs for female characters. Their need to "prettify" all the female races always causes them to make massive compromises on the theme and look of the race. As a few examples -
Trolls - We're used to seeing it now, but the female model has always inexplicably stood upright with tusks so small they were barely worth the effort. IMO There was far too much compromise from the vanilla look to make them prettier and they've always looked more Zandalari than Darkspear.
Dwarves - Females actually can have beards too in lore but I don't think Blizzard would ever implement that. For the wildhammer tribe especially, a woman with a large beard is seen a great beauty.
Vulpera - The females have thin waists and boobs. Because they're foxes so why not have boobs? I kinda feel it wasn't needed and they could do enough in the expression and faces or model sizes to split apart the genders without giving them boobs. At least they're not compromising the race theme of these though.
Worgen - In trying NOT to make the women look like ferocious angry werewolves (you know... the whole point of the race) we ended up with skinny, slim-waisted wolf women with super weird faces... and boobs. Because why not have werewolves with boobs?
One of these is a ferocious werewolf. The other is a slim hairy woman with a bad Halloween mask -
Kul Tiran - The males are beefy and burly and look like they've seen a few fights. They once again wouldn't commit to this for the females and meet half way so we have normal humans but larger. The look super dull and don't have any of the personality and character that the men do.
Say what you will about them, but the men look like gorilla-esque bruisers at least. The women though are so dull they look like they could be working in the HR department with a dolphin handpuppet.
It's one of my biggest fears for an Ogre race to be honest. The females are meant to be almost indistinguishable from the females. We're inevitably going to get some skinnier, smaller, prettier, less-threatening version for women with tiny tusks and pigtails. (and boobs obviously)
They'll probably end up more like this fan art -
For all the complaints about Kul Tirans being "FAT" I think this is the bigger issues - That Blizzard are so scared to break free from their norms that they won't allow the women to look like hardened bruisers like the men. The women imo look generic and plain and boring, and have had all of the Kul Tiran personality drained from them in compromise to make them prettier and more non-threatening.
