Character creation model comparisons in SL beta so far

[Beloren]

So I was comparing the different models with each other etc.. and most of them are straight forward



Identical models - very minor deviations
Dwarf - Dark irons
Void Elf - blood elf
Night elf - nightborne
Lightforged - draenei
Highmountin - Tauren
Gnome - Mechagnome
Huojin Panda - Tushui Pandaren

You will see what I mean if you click on one followed by their corresponding. They are the same models essentially


Unique models:
Human
Kul'tiran
Zandalari
Vulpera
forsaken
Worgen

These seem to have no other models like them.. which means

1. The Kul'tiran model was actually a new race model
2. The Zandalari model is easy new or heavily modified - it runs like a nightborne, but feels like a troll.
3. Forsaken model seems to match the human thin model, but that's not playable.
4. Vulpera feels like goblin many times but not always, it also feels quite unique.

Human and worgen seem to be unique.

I mean, welcome to the game?

You don't seem to know the difference between a model and a skeleton.
The Zandalari and Vulpera skeletons are not unique.

But then again, what is the point of this thread?

[Nnyco]

Vulpera and goblin got same rigs, they arent unique. Granted they have 2-3 new animations but overall its the same.

Did you notice that each hunter race has different pet animals?

Human - wolf
Void elf - starseker (but when you log in, it's a warp stalker ..again)
Dwarf - bear
Lightforged - skyfin
Night elf - night stalker panther (new model)
Dark Iron - black rock hyena
Gnome - robo spider
Kul'tiran - parrot
Draenei - talbuk
Mechagnome - robo dog
Worgen - bulldog

Panda - Tundra mammoth

Orc - boar
Nightborne - Ley panther
Forsaken - spider
Highmountain - Eagle
Tauren - Ostrich
Mag'har - Wolf
Darkspear Troll - Raptor
Zandalari - dinosaur
Blood elf - mana wyrm
Vulpera - snake
Goblin - crab


I noticed all the pets use new models - so many of the original races have changed their pets too. Most noticeable are the elves. Starting pet models look good



I think it's also good that humans, dwarves, gnomes, blood/high elves, kul'tirans and forsaken all have brown/black skin options - it make sense if one has it all of them should cos they aret he human based races.

What's the Zandalari based on then?

If I’m not mistaken night elves.

Okay, so you are clearly trolling. Gotcha.

It is indeed Night Elves, but modified to the point where I would consider them different now, it was more of a starting point than anything.
