That #1 bear is the Amani bear, isn't it? :) Recognized the brown. <3

The eye colors on some of those mounts are just gorgeous. A lot of the regular bear models don't have eyes that are quite as attractive.

Yes, it's the "black" Amani bear :) The brown Amani bear actually uses the regular dark brown bear skin.

I like his colouring, too, though I think he looks a bit wooden. Not enough contrast, perhaps. I don't think they made him thinking he'd appear naked like this.

My favourites are actually #2 and #3.

#3 is the Big Battle Bear (TCG mount) skin that I made and posted a regular skin from over in the skin mash-ups thread.

#2 is a very pretty brown that as far as I can tell has never been used but is on the same model as the Big Battle Bear.

Oh wow, really neat to see those with the armor off~

I agree #4 is just nightmare inducing. ._. Those eyes...

However, I adore the glowy eyes of the final three, I'd love to see a tameable bear with that sort of eye.

Agreed #4... Ugh... Perhaps because it looks so...human? The last three are very lovely though <3 the glazy eyes.

I've nothing really to add to this wonderful thread.
But if you don't mind I want to post my gratitude or thanks to Wain.

Wain, you have done and still doing ofc a absolutely great job !
I for one didn't even know so many variations existed , but then again I don't use any modelviewer.

Anyway, I think I speak for all members/viewers of this forum when I say:
Thank you very very much for the comprehensive and precise information, much appreciated !
Also input/thoughts from others in this thread is greatly appreciated of course ! :D

tiny edit here:
I just love the tigerskinruby (WMV) .. when I first saw this in the very first post, I immediately said "Wow!".
But it is understandable such a skin won't be available or maybe in the future.. but still a very nice skin.

That's very kind! Thanks :) I really do enjoy tracking all these down. It appeals to my OCD side I guess ;) (which tries valiantly to compensate for my lazy side)

I have high hopes it will be one day! My favourites are actually the blue and turquoise gem ones. I really do hope they all make it in. They would have been perfect as rares for Deepholm too. And pets of Earthen hunters, like that one in Storm Peaks. At least the black one is tameable, so there's a precedent, and from the MoP trailer we can guess the jade one will be available too.

And thanks for posting... you reminded me I'd forgotten to update the thread for 4.3. From memory there are two new looks available (now removed from list):
- TigerSkinSnow on hunched/gem model
- TigerSkinWhite on hunched/gem model

No problem and thanks to you I know more about the various variations of pet skins ! I love it, but you have to read this thread completely to appreciate it. I have read all the 17 pages tbh. not all at once, but I did read them.
You've posted also numerous throughout the entire thread.
No, you are certainly not lazy ! absolutely not ! I'm very happy you are doing this !

Sorry that I've nothing to contribute.. this is a bit offtopic. anyway, cheers and thanks ! ^^

Wain wrote:Also listing the four new Horde PvP wolf mount skins. This model has a unique new look. Unfortunately without the armour it's missing important pieces, like its ears and slices of its legs and tail. However I've chosen to depict it without the armour so you can actually see the fur better and get an idea of what it might look like with the bits filled in. Maybe Blizzard will develop a version without the armour. :)

The skin names seem to bear no relationship to the actual colour of the skin. Very weird.
I assume it probably has to do with the armor or saddle-blankets maybe? Orange, red, purple, etc.?

Ohhh, I would love to be able to tame some of those! I love that model so much.

Ooh, I think that looks much more appealing as a corporeal model rather than spectral.

Yeah, it did :) This was for if there were full versions of the skin (with no armour) available in the art team's files :)

Some of these probably don't have full versions. Why draw something that will never be shown?

In light of *wince* caterpillars being made tameable, I decided I might as well add larvae to this list as well ;)

Just uploading the images.

Original larvae...

Yes, the Outland grubs are a bit fancier :) They also used them as sea cucumbers in Cata as well, and (apart from the lack of feathering on the mouth parts) they're not far off!

And Gorm is right.. I better not piss off the caterpillars. They're large and hungry. And Eric Carle showed just what one of them can do. There should be a parody of The Very Hungry Caterpillar with WoW characters with holes eaten through their hearts and heads and stuff :D
