Skin Swaps! (Owls and parrots that never were... etc.)
For fun I thought I'd post a few nice examples of skin-swaps. Will I add these to the untameable skins list? I'm not sure. Maybe not. But I thought they'd be interesting enough to post here anyway.

Re: Owls and parrots that never were...
I'm surprised how well that "ember" one came out. I think it looks much nicer on the owl than it ever did on the parrot (parrotskincrimson). The format seems to suit it better on the owl. The parrot always looked kinda dirty.Vephriel wrote:I really love that black skin on the parrot model! The red/black owl is rather nice too. ^^

Re: Owls and parrots that never were...
I'm really surprised about how good the parrot skins look on owls. Would be nice to see some of them in game!

Re: Owls and parrots that never were...
Some of them don't look too bad:
What a fire druid flight form might have looked like if not for firehawks:
Tropical druid:
I'm craaazy and I'm coming to keeeel youuuu:
But on some of them the ears look absurd or miscoloured...
Ears? What ears? Oh, I picked these up at a Star Trek convention.
Interestingly the ears on the stormcrow model (as opposed to the actual druid flight form that it's copied from) could probably easily be switched off by default. And possibly should be. They're only there because it's supposed to be a night elf form and looks completely silly on a wild beast. I wonder if the art team could be encouraged to do that at the request of a certain dev...

Re: Owls and parrots that never were...
... hit 'enter' in time to see the stormcrow ones. And *oooooo*. The 'fire hawk' is *STUNNING*. Screw those firey birdies they use: *those* are the ones they need to add! Wanna see more of your color work on those. Wanna, wanna, wanna.
Re: Owls and parrots that never were...
Back when I model edited, I took Olm's current skin and put it on an eagle. It was awesome.

The black stormcrow skin on the eagle looks very awesome:

Hey, who stole my chin?
On the stormcrow it simply doesn't connect properly and looks like the bird's wearing an eagle mask:
