Racial options in the forsaken is a neat idea. I wonder how hard it would be to just add an "elf" option (ear and eyebrow) for the forsaken in the features menu. No other parts of the model/ face would need to change, and I really think it could work.
Ok first off WOW Spirit! That looks so smooth and fantastic. I for one would LOVE LOVE LOVE this. I can only wish because gosh she's so lovely.

YES PLEASE!
That looks amazingly good. I always thought it would be cool if they had more race options for undead- I mean their queen is an elf after all. Why hasn't she expanded on her options a lil bit?

The Forsaken look for other races is a pretty cool idea. The high elf looks fantastic.
I'm not sure of the lore, but I thought the Forsaken were supposed to be the citizens of Lordaeron, which were humans. They just happen to be lead by the crazed undead blood elf who freed them. But maybe I got that wrong. Plus it would make sense that any undead high elves who broke free would also flock to Undercity.

No no, I think you may be right, that’s why the Alliance sends non humans into Silverpine. (as you can see when you play through the storyline there). They send dwarves and elves, because they supposedly can't be resurrected into Forsaken. However you can also see undead elven rangers too, and Sylvanas herself is a dead elf, sooooo yeah? I'm sure it would not be that far of a stretch to include it. And who knows, maybe now with the Valkyries helping out, they don’t have quite the same issue of raising different races into undeath as the plague did? Anyway, it was more just for giggles... who knows, maybe I'll try and DarkIron Dwarf next ; )

Not necessarily. Some undead have no rot at all. Sylvanas doesn't have decomposed ears either, nor do her rangers.

Dark Iron? Yes please! SpiritBinder, you're DYING to try that Dark Iron thing out on the female model, right? RIGHT? Oh god, I've wanted to play Dark Iron forever. I RP all but one of my Dwarf sisters as half Dark Iron and give them the bluest face I can, but it's just not the same.

Whoa, those alterations look awesome. We seriously need those. They seem to be easy enough.
Especially the Dark Iron Dwarf. That needs to be a thing. Someone should tweet that to Chris G. Robinson.
Oh, your Tauren face edits also makes the new tauren model look a lot cooler. It surprises me that it's so easy to make tauren look mean. You succeeded at it, at least.

Some great alterations in here...my list of things I like to play might increase! Except for undead, I don't like their quests areas :<
I can't wait to see Draenei...my biggest hope is they're just a bit less top-heavy lol (either slim the torso a bit or increase the mass of the legs a bit).
