MoP concept art

The latest MMO-Champion article includes a lot of beautiful MoP concept art that has been added to the beta, apparently to be used in the credits screen.

Some of the pieces look remarkably like the finished models, for example the first of these goats (they obviously decided against the udder one *cough* sorry) and the mushan:

The mantids look a little more comical and expressive:

I really love this Hozen concept:

Image

Quilen on steroids, and an obviously early stone one that is actually called "foo dog":

Image Image

But the thing I regret most is that they didn't add this race:

Like sleek, graceful Arakkoa.

They're all very interesting, anyway :) The article I linked has loads more pics.

I also saw the concept art for the Pandaren flying mount and thought.. "If only they had made those as well, they would have been soooooo amazing!"

Yeah I know we got cranes, but imagine if they could fly!!! (wtb more flying bird themed mounts) :)

I got a total kick out of seeing all of these. :D The goat concepts make me giggle so much, especially those udders. XD And the fluff on the mushan, so cute, hehe.

Totally agree with you, SB. I really wish the cranes could fly, it would just be so glorious! <3

That one could potentially be the one of the August Celestials, the red crane Chi-Ji.

This concept art makes me curious. Can anyone confirm if the Pandaren starting zone swims around like this?

The starting zone is indeed a massive turtle. It only has four flippers as far as I can tell...not a bajillion like the concept art shows. That kind of creeps me out. Anyways, he's supposed to swims in the Pandaria isle area, but as much as I've flown around, I can't find his actual 'body'. I think it might be instanced for the starting zone.

Ghn. Must.....draw that quilin.....
