Hot dang, I LOVE them. The face is just perfect- cheerful and pretty but not overdone, such a natural and lovable beauty!

I really like them! I was kind of hoping they'd keep the fangs there, but there's really no question when you see the side-by-side comparisons of how amazing they look. The textures are so smooth and detailed. I love that they kept her musculature, and the hairstyles are looking great!

I think that's my favourite of the previews so far. I'm a bit biased—my main was a NE druid all through classic, and my hunter was a NE up until midway through Cata. I'm glad they're going with a better ear than the originally-datamined model (which was likened to dobby and the other Harry Potter elves), though I'm worried that they're going to make them bouncy like blood elf ears (I -hate- blood elf ears, haha). It's hard to tell because of the angle on the /roar animation and because it's a static image, so we'll see :x

Granted, the face they chose is one of the faces I actively avoid when rolling NE, so it's another waiting game on that front, but at least it looks like it's kept its character this time!

I noticed the missing fangs too. I expected at least for her canines to be distinguishable from her other teeth. Otherwise, she definitely looks more savage and amazonish, like the WC3 night elves.

Of all the ones so far, I think the NE female is changed the least. It's basically just more detail on the same frame. The face shows the most change. I like them but worked on the longest and changed the least? ;)

Maybe it's because they needed the least change. I have to say that I have never noticed any fangs on a NE.

Blizzard... Stop making me want to come back... Stop drawing me back in! :O

The new Night Elf females look truly amazing. One of the many races I didn't want to play because of how nasty the models looked after a while. xD

I'm actually a huge fan of how muscular they're making our ladies look. No more silly tiny waists and dainty bodies. Dat muscle tone. ♥ I agree that the hands look a little manly and large still but it doesn't bother me that much. Now here's hoping they manage to do a good job when they get around to the Blood Elves. They're so small and feminine that I enjoy playing them but female B'elf warriors look like they make no sense, a girl that small could not hold the armour and weapons that they do. I want them to look feminine but still ferocious, like they have charm but could still kick your ass. c:

I love the new night elf model and so glad we got another preview, I've been getting impatient xD She hasn't changed a ton, no. But the whole point is to .. Well, update them. Not totally rework them. I think if the models look vastly updated while still keeping the overall feel and look of the old model (and the individual faces) then it's a success.

The most noticeable thing is when they're animated, after all. When you're in game walking around or using emotes. To me every model update, even the NE female and draenei are a vast improvement and changed plenty even they've been changed the least, though that's all opinion..

At least they don't have a blank stare like the dwarf female has at the moment and to a smaller degree human females...

I do wish they had the fangs though. Minor but a neat detail.

WONDERFUL!!!!!! I am quite happy with the female Night elves! My main is one and I've been waiting to see what they'd looks like, I am glad that I can be at ease now :D

LOL Lupen202, one of my first thoughts was "aww no fangs..."

Yeah, the model revamps are coming out really great so far. :) The male tauren even grew on me after not liking it initially. I have to say female dwarves are the only ones I don't like at all, they dropped the ball on her in my opinion, but otherwise these updates are looking nice. I'm excited/anxious for blood elves, but I'm feeling positive after seeing this latest update.

I think human males might be one of the models I have the most anticipation for just because the classic ones are so terrible. I'm really eager to see what they do with them, and I don't even play one.

Yea.. I loved dwarf female when I saw her preview at blizzcon I think? But now... As I've seen more of her face(s)... Hopefully they'll still tweak her. I think the shape of her eyes and the shadows around them are the biggest issue. If they'd just change that .. I think we'd see a big improvement. I don't think their body is bad at all for a dwarf female.

Oh well. Still a big improvement I think; but still slightly disappointing.

Also all the models are most likely going to look way way better animated then they do as photos!

*nodnod* Yeah, it's odd because I remember being really impressed by the first preview we saw of her at Blizzcon too. The eyes didn't have that weird tired, baggy look to them. I don't know why the face looked so different after they started giving us more official looks. I hope they might still change something before release because I've always liked dwarf ladies. All I can say is right now from what we've seen I don't like the faces at all.

Yeah. Wow. Looking back, what a difference. Her eyes weren't baggy at all and she was actually really pretty. Wonder why they changed her face so much; I realize there are different faces but lately, they all have had that baggy look and nothing of this lady.

Wondering, will they be getting new voices/emotes as well? Maybe at least some new joke material?

Well they could be two different face choices for all we know.
