I kind of like the Destroyer's proportions better.

I totally agree. Wowhead has a great shot of one in-game that looks very much like the pic you linked. More lean, I find.

Edit: Here.

The thing with the toes is a glitch, the model didn't have that before. I've been working on compiling pics of all the different styles of tol'vir and now the fuzzy version! It's all kind of guesswork since it's one model with a ton of crud piled over it.. you have to deselect layers and hope you guessed right. :p

I don't want to tame one...I want to be one! New Race for next expansion?....

Waugh... I've done everything Iwanted but finish some pics of the five Ramkahen skins. I'll probably go crazy if I don't sleep though! I'm not sure if they're meant to have wings or not, maybe both? Wings are optional for each kind, the Tol'vir, the masked Tol'vir and the Ramkahen. As well as armor. The Masked forms come with armor no matter what and I think they can work with any skin, although it was only the Ram Head that changes color depending on the skin.
I took the Tol'vir and God Mask pics before the patch that bugged the rear feet up.

Ramkahen with wings:

Tol'vir with armor and wings:

Winged Tol'vir views:

God Masks... I got progressively crazier after each one!

I love seeing pawpads on things... duno why!

Nice work on the images Fael! Thanks for always providing stuff like that. ^_^

I love that Jackal mask!

You're very welcome! Graphical creative stuff in WoW is what I look forward to the most.

Being able to make stuff like that to share it now and then makes me happy, and even seeing it somewhere is exciting. I messed around with a couple more views before running away, they're just too nicely detailed! I did get a bit sillier though.

If those masks they're wearing become a model for a wearable helmet (ESPECIALLY that jackal one!), I will be over the moon.

I can't believe the level of detail they have... they look positively wonderful. I just hope all of the playable vanilla races get a makeover/higher polygon count... it'd be awkward to be walking on ground that looks better than you do.

As someone said a while ago, "That thing has more polygons than Durotar!"... :D

It seems those particular cat people are not, in fact, the tol'vir:

"The Ramkahen are the direct descendants of the tolvir, they were Tol'virs affected by the curse of flesh.
The Ramkahen have their own faction, and are neutral to players. You will be able to gain reputation with them to obtain rewars (Camel mount, maybe?).

"The cat-people of Ramkahen are the distant but direct descendants of the Tol'vir, guardians of Uldum. Though they've lost their stone bodies, protecting the secrets of the Titans is still a part of their rigid tradition" (taken from in-game description)."
--Ramkahen Cat People
--Tol'vir

So basically, those with the realistic cat markings and fur are a specifc faction. Actual Tol'vir are the ones made of stone

Splendid! I guess we still have a chance at seeing the real Tol'Vir then, perhaps in the dungeon? :P

I like some of the muscles on the non-stone cat-taurs.

The jackal one made go, "Anubis? Bwah?"

Looking at those pictures makes me want them as a playable race even more. I hope that one of the rep rewards will be an item that allows you to transform into them. I hope it would work something like the Rituals of the New Moon so i can be used anywhere(not zone specific) or at least like the wolf disguise you get in howling fjord.

Perhaps next expansion they'll bring in two playable six limbed races due to popular demand and spiff up the centaurs or the dragonkin...

Seeing these god head masks reminds me of Stargate. :p

Indeed! I demand staff weapons as the new ranged weapons type!

That was exactly what I thought! It's awesome that they're a faction! <3 factions.
