Pet Camoflauge Challenge!

I've been thinking about posting this for a long time, and I keep forgetting to get around to it.

Pick one of your pets, and see if you can find a good setting to blend them into the surroundings! Where would your pet camouflage best? Note that any form of prowl/stealth would be considered 'cheating.' Find your pet's natural environment, and see if you can fit him/her in pretty well!

I tried it with Jiaphyon, my Scarlet Tracking Hound, on Hellfire Peninsula. Once I turned his nameplate off, he actually fits in pretty well!

Try it yourself, it's pretty fun :D Especially figuring out where to hide some of the more colorful ones :P

Thanks, it's a pretty bad angle tough. She blends in a bit too much. :P

Hmm, this seems interesting. :D Just one question though..

What about the pets that are naturally see-through, like the Ghost Saber and more importantly, Disembodied Jormungar? *is itching to go on her way to look for the perfect camo spot for her worm*
Nope, nothing to see here, nothing at all. There definitely isn't a ferocious worm hiding at the tree, carry on with your business.

I just love the way his chest scales blend to the tree's bark. XD

If it's naturally see through (Disembodied Jormungar, Ghost Sabre, or the spirit beasts cat and bear) then that's fine, but make sure you pick a place that still matches the beastie and not just stick'em somewhere arbitrary because it's see-through.

I'm only 'banning' putting your cats and spirit beasts in stealth because it doesn't seem especially fair to use abilities. The challenge is to hide your pet naturally, after all.

Hmm, looks like Krush shoud've been in Netherstorm instead of Sholazar Basin!

*Doesn't say that it's actually a robot raptor that I'm controlling.*
*Pushes the button with the words "lazor-ayes!" written over it.*

Lol at the photobomb raptor! :lol:

Krush blends in so well there, you're right! :P When I first saw Netherstorm I was like 'Whaa? How can a green dinosaur blend into purple? o.O"

In Soviet Russia, the beast stalks YOU!

*ahem* Have to agree though. After trying Un'Goro (Sholazar felt way too obvious) I remembered the eco-domes in Netherstorm and gave it a shot. Turns out, there are plants that have pretty much the same colors as Krush. o.o
