For right now this is Hati, but I really, REALLY hope he ends up being orange or red!

Well isn't Hati the one that chases the moon? It'd make more sense for Skoll to have been a warm color but oh well :(

I hope Hati doesn't use that model at all though.

I hope Hati gets another element effect; fire maybe?

It'd make sense for him to use that model. As much as I don't like the Northrend worgs I hope he stays one just so he matches his brother. ^^;

I've always imagine Skoll being white and Hati being black. Opposite colors. Opposite of blue is orange, sooooo...

And there may or may not be a certain webcomic that I really love that would also make the blue and red fit

Ahh I thought someone was referencing one in game. Not the Norse Mythology. Thanks

If you all are anything like me, then you've noticed that the beta/alpha is out for some people, but there are an unfortunate lack of pictures featuring creatures. Until we can get a nice, official, Wain-stamp-of-approval-thread of potential hunter pets with green backgrounds and everything, I tried to make a substitute for now.

BIG ALBUM HERE

Inside you'll find many new pet looks, most of those potential tamables, some are unique rares. No big surprises as far as new families or anything (yet). Mostly just updated skins or new color variants, but I included some of the probably untamable new beasts for the sake of variety. I didn't include some like the orange basilisk, white moose, or purple manasaber since they had already been posted.


Not included in the album, but also of note:

Probably added only to bother Wain (and anyone else who thought Draenor should actually have a unique ecology), there are tons of Draenor wolves, boars, some hydras, and even a hippo in the Broken Isles.


The only purple runesaber I could find was a creature called the Ancient Meadowking
http://legion.wowhead.com/npc=98569/ancient-meadowking

There's a rare runesaber called Shyma the Dreaded that has <NEW MODEL COMING> in its title. I wonder what a dreaded runesaber would look like.
http://legion.wowhead.com/npc=92090/shyama-the-dreaded


- Several yak, beaver, shoveltusk NPCs along with 2 or 3 each for Mushan and Dactyls
- NPCs that seem identical to many Barrens NPCs, like Echeyakee, vultures, coyotes, and zhevras. Not sure why these would need new NPC ids.

I am going nuts over all these new models and colors. I hope most make it in! I really love the brown/orange wolf, the Eagles and the owls.

Wowhead also has a post with some models and their animations

The new models look awesome, the new skins look awesome, the updates are awesome.

Tbh, I wouldn't mind if Makrura (or at least a beast using similar models) became tameable.

I hope Dread Ravens and Rocs become tameable.

The new spiders are cool.

The Helsquid look like they would be cool tameables if they made them capable of floating naturally. Good to see they've given it a skeleton, finally.

The cats look great, and I say that as someone who isn't even a huge cat fan.

The bears are odd to me. I like them a lot from some angles, and think they're odd from others.

That plagued skin looks amazing though.

And by god, those owls. Blizzard finally got me to like owls. I didn't think they had it in them.

The basilisks look a bit too spiky, but I like them nonetheless!

The eagles are the only ones I'm not sure about. They'd probably work for the the current pet sizes, but not as giant eagles that can lift our character. (the hunter order hall teleport)

Wow thanks man! That was brilliant to look through. Many of those model updates are so true to the originals you'd easily forget they had changed (in a good way). If I had any of them then I wouldn't mind my pet's model changing. It's just like your pet suddenly became a bit more hi-def. Just beautiful work!

And then there's the bears. I'm afraid those shots made me dislike them more than ever. I think they truly are a terrible design choice, and not just because of the broken skeleton. I could not be more disappointed, and I really did want to like them. My main pet is the white bear and I'd choose the old model over that thing any day. Why couldn't they have done to the bears what they did to the other models? Some creative artist thought they'd make their personal mark by being different, I guess.

I'm a little surprised the new wolf colours aren't based on the same design as that boss wolf we saw. I hope those are coming though. But the Draenor model is nice. And I'm resigned to the Draenor wildlife in Azeroth (and vice versa) now. The art and world design team have become too resource conscious for anything else these days.

I like the new cat model, but I wish they'd depart from making them all monochrome. It makes them all a bit dull.

The basilisks are definitely growing on me :)

And I was pleased to see I wasn't hallucinating and there really are new hippogryph colours. I love them :) I hope even more are coming! Maybe mount versions too, I hope.


Once again, my jaded opinions above are coloured by the fact I wasted an entire day on WoW Model Viewer and am barely any closer to getting it to work than yesterday. I wish the main coder would help. Instead I'm going to go eat ice cream and yell at that bear model some more... Stupid fucking bear! Comb your hair, shave off that stupid chin fluff you call a beard and get off the meth!

I guess that really was a new color in that screenshot xD

I really hope we can get these hippogryph colors as mounts... And pets. ;-;

So much love for this-this is one of those I'd cry if it is not tameable type of pets. Just wow.

Eagles are lovely, but the Owls are amazing-I only have two flying birds currently on my hunter-Banthalos and a Percy look alike named Perci as I am not a huge fan of the birds-but those owls are going to be enough to convince me to tame another.

The Cats look awesome, though some of the screenshots make their jaws look really odd-hopefully that was just a positioning thing. The druid feral artifact forms are up and the level of detail in them is amazing. There are some with gorgeous leopard and tiger patterning, I am hoping some of that can hopefully translate over to the kitties.

Is this a precedent of more of old models getting new models?
