Our next spirit beast? - UPDATED WITH NEW PICS

Unread post by Wain »

In the patch files there's a new model called Owlghost_green, which has a skin called owlspiritgreen.

Unfortunately WMV doesn't render much of it at the moment, so it looks like most of it is missing. That may just be WMV's fault or maybe the artwork itself isn't done yet. I can't say.
What you do see is in the following pic, but please don't base any assumptions on this terrible early rendering:

UPDATE: new skin (OwlSpiritGreen) in the latest build. It now looks like an even more spirity version of Olm with extra ghostly and particle effects... and green horns/ears for some reason.... :
With the particle effects turned off:

It's looking more and more like a new spirit beast!

Looks cool, but unfinished. Seems like it's going misty.

that looks eeepic so far though :D i wouldnt want an owl for a spirit beast so soon though, we just got a look-a-like with Olm, i wouldnt mind seeing an owl spirit beast but just... not so soon, bring out a beast that hasnt been remodelled recently. Perhaps a crocolisk or spider? Even a moth would look absolutely dashing with a spirit aura and its constant shedding (and it flies for a change of pace). A wind serpent would look faaabulous too, they're already awesome but i cant get along with any of them :<

An owl spirit beast, however, would be the first pet type that is normally Cunning to become a spirit beast.

Hm, looks very awesome but still needs some work imo. It's very misty and hard to see distinct details, while the wings are very solid. Plus the horns (eyebrows)?

I'mma sit back and wait until it renders better before I pass judgement...can't see enough to tell much beyond 'ohai, a bird.'

Pretty sure the 'horns' are just the eyebrows, like Littlemouse suggested. Since the owls have REALLY bushy ones.

I freely admit to looking forward to the final render of this guy. But then again, I may be a little biased thanks to a certain RP thread and one of my characters within. Just hope he looks as wonderful as I hope he will.

I doubt it's a spirit beast. It looks more like a model that just got added. Maybe it was an effect they were gonna add to Olm before dropping the idea? (Kinda like how there's 2 other Skoll models, and 2 other Gondria models).

I think it'll look nice when fully rendered.

But seriously, where is my Blue Ghostly Fire Spider Spirit Beast? :O

Such as, perhaps, a glowing golden modified warp stalker? Because I'd about kill (well, kill murlocs, that is; lots of them) for that.
