Updating one pic...

Wow, thanks for uploading all these skins! Do want those Mana Wyrm models, do want them all!

Also, even though they are not found in game very often, the Burnt Hippogryph Red skin can be found as a mount from the Trading Card Game. The cards are out of print, so they come at a hefty cost when eBay'ing them, but I've seen a few running around in game. This might also be a potential graphic for the Flameward Hippogryph that's given as a reward for unlocking the entire Molten Front quest line and dailies. Probably with more flame in the graphic, than a smolder.

Yeah, the new ones look more fiery than the old ones. If they were ever to become a tameable family then non-mount versions would have to be put in the game, though. I think currently there's only one non-mount model, so they'd have to add a new one if they wanted to keep fiery effects on those two.

There's another purple hydra, Vorsha the Lasher. Summoned, by the quest of the same name.

Horde-only, get it from an orc named Muglash at Zoram'gar Outpost in Ashenvale. Escort quest. Few waves of naga, then the hydra shows up. 22, non-elite.

Edit: Ah, thought. It's an oldworld model hydra, not OL.

True! I'll add the name. I don't aim to add every possible npc for every colour, but since there's only two and one is rare, it's worth it for this one. Thanks

oh how i want the mana wurms and nether snake/dragons to be beasts and tameble.
its unlikly for the dragon guys im aware, but they seem so ...lesser dragon that they could just as well be a beast of magic rather than a dragon.

The fact that the model name for arcane wyrms in the database is "netherdragon" suggests to me that maybe they were the original concept for nether dragons in BC and were scrapped, but I'm not certain of this. They were later used in WotLK instead for mana-hungry beasts, much like mana wyrms. They even look a lot like elongated mana wyrms and almost nothing like dragons. The ones in the game are of ambiguous classification. Some are classed as dragonkin (perhaps because of the model name) and others are classed as elementals. A while back I asked Noah if he would consider making them all beasts. He indicated he WAS interested in doing so but I have no idea on the whether this is still planned.

I hope its something he keeps in mind, as it is my fav model in the game of untameble things.
I also want a levitating shark in a bubble to send at the horde in bg`s...would be awsome.
Its just a personal wish though. Many now look of em lesser dragonkin so it seem unlikely.
I think these "dragons" and mana wurms would fit fine togheter. Either as a new familiy or to be placed togheter with the windserpents.
They both fly(or levitate in this case) and seem very possibly to cast bolts of sorts as well as biting(or do windserpents use smack?), so it could work.

Adding the two spectral faction flying mount skins, the spectral gryphon and wyvern, but on opaque models. Freaky but cool!

To do this I also had to give them new alpha masks, taken from the regular skins. The spectral masks were weird and just didn't work on the opaque model. They had missing bits.

Updated for untameable Pandaren families, since the Beta forum is now closed. Not sure if I should add any of the new "critter" families or not. Some might be ok, some a bit weird.

Arcane wyrms are now tameable serpents so I moved their unavailable colours to the Pet skins that are still untameable list.

As a result, I also moved mana wyrms to that list, under Serpents, but in the section for untameable models for existing families.

Forgot to add the Windsteeds...

Added the four colours of the new frog model, since they're being used as pretty huge beasts on the Timeless Isle, and also as Dire Beast summons...

But really, I love all those frog skins!

I've been wondering a lot about snakes as an untameable. We have serpents, but the new pandaren Death Adders and Imperial Python are gorgeous models and are summoned a lot in the Dire Beast, but sadly...aren't tameable. Their size and fight animations as a dire beast look wonderful to me xD.
