Flying mount.. definitely the Twilight Drake one. I love the purple/blue hue of it, even though I have all ulduar-icc ones. Nothing can compare to that amazing hue. Maybe one day I will get it. =) Always lost rolls by 1 or 2.

Ground one.. definitely my zg tiger that my main has. It was the first hard to get mount I have ever obtained and it's just beautiful. Not to mention, no longer obtainable.
Here's a screen shot of my main and mount. =)

This is my sexy, sexy bike. Is it okay to refer to a mechanical creation as sexy? Because if it isn't, I don't care. I could spend all day lickingpolishing that Horde emblem.

She needs a name.
Oh that is adorable :lol:

(And yes, I am calling your bike & more importantly your imagining of it ADORABLE!)

I'm not sure if I'm more impressed with that picture or your outfit.

What clothes are you wearing? I visited your armory, but it showed your PvE gear. Not that outfit. :(

It's top-secret! No, no, here's what I'm wearing:

Authentic Jr. Engineer Goggles
White Swashbuckler's Shirt
Leafsong Vest*
Quilboar Skin Gloves
Some green belt from a Twilight Highlands quest. Didn't bother messing with it.
Leggings of Mischief
Warsong Poacher's Greaves

I'm sure you could find nicer(and easier to obtain) boots, but I like the way that type of boot looks on Vee and...well, it's the only piece of Wrath gear I forced myself to hold onto. I fought and died and rolled my heart out for those boots. :P

*If you've already done the Felwood quests, I'm certain there are other vests with the same model as I've picked a few up as quest rewards while doing The Seeker. However, I can't remember what they're called and Wowhead doesn't seem to have a 'same model as' tab for the vest.

As for stuff you can't see, she has the Gold Wedding Band and the Rainbow Generator. That's pretty much it. :)

EDIT: The Swashbuckler/Leafsong combo is pretty cleavage-tastic - Vee mostly does that to make it look like she has more boobage than she actually does. I'm sure there are some less-revealing shirts that would go nicely with it. I remember wearing the Wound Dressings with it as well.

Flying mounts have to be any and all of my drakes, Nether or no.
Ground mounts are a tie between riding tigers (which I can't get on my tauren. Boo. :C), horses, and riding worgs.

I have too many mounts to make up my mind in the first place, lol.

Thanks! I think I could tweak this to go into my "Steampunk" outfit for my Main (a Shaman named...wait for it... Steampunk, awesome name, amirite?). And I've always hated the Mechanohog. But now, I think you've changed my mind. Thanks! :D

Of all the mounts I own I probably use my Raven Lord the most. As soon as the change was made so that we didn't need druids anymore, I was out there every single day attempting to get my own mount. 18 tries after the change and the reins belong to me! ♥

I also love the look of the Phosphorescent and the Vitreous Stone Drakes but neither of them want to be mine, apparently.

My favorite mount is the white armored gryphon. Here's a picture of me and my Miniwing flying around outside Dalaran. I flew nothing but gyrocopters in Burning Crusade, but eventually got tired of the constant clatter.

Image

And I have a biker outfit too which I pull out for RP events, even though I never got around to building a mechanohog of my own.

Image

It's hard to see in that picture, but the boots have skulls on them. :headbang:

Thanks to Kurenio for the signature!

It was believed afterward that the man was a lunatic, because there was no sense in what he said.

All of my mounts are on my main (Tauren Druid)

My fave ground mounts are a tie between my ZG tiger and my Brown chicken from the TCG (I got it for my anniversary :P)

For flying, it's a three way tie this time between Green proto, Rusted proto, and the Headless Horseman's mount.

Blue Proto-drake. Plain and simple...
Loved it ever since Wotlk... Love it even more now that I actually managed to get it after SO LONG!

I was SO dedicated to getting the mount, I actually made it a purpose to find a group for Heroic UP EVERYDAY on my rogue... And this was before dungeon finder... So you can probably assume how well that went... 3 hours just finding a group... Only to have the group just drop when we got to Skadi... So much anger.

Despite how boring they may seem I love the hippogrith mounts <3 unlike dragons they dont cover your whole screen, they have the most amusing idle and ground animations, plus their full of colours so far I only have the one from zangarmarsh, im doing all of outlands before doing northrend so I hope to get the other two soon
for ground mounts theres alot of cool ones so I couldn't say

Oh yes, they certainly do have great idles :D I love hippogryphs.

I wanted to comment on another mount too, now--they've changed the Drake of the West Wind, and it's massively grown on me. The armor is a dull red (maybe blue for Alliance?), the skin tones are now a much brighter green, and the lightning effect is an animation rather than pasted onto the skin. It looks like a proper dragon now :D

Edit: I've been using it much more since the change, and taking tons of screenshots. This one does NOT show off the color very well, lol, but I think it looks quite good regardless :)

Armor's reddish for Alliance, too. On patch day I hopped on mine just to ogle it a bit, although I still prefer turning INTO a dragon for now. :lol:
