...I've seen the female Pandaren design. While it's better than I expected, she's still too skinny. Is it too much to make a female Pandaren look more like a Panda first and a dwarf second?
At least it's not some super-skinny belf-style model with fur and slightly bigger eyes. It looks more like an average female than most of the other races... Still, though, I was kind of hoping for a big bouncy grandma-made-you-kids-some-cookies! kind of female for the pandas. Just sayin'...
@Hyperious-- That'd be more true to style, although pandas aren't exactly cuddly up close.
The one thing that I did see that I was most intrigued about was that they didn't mess up the Westernized Oriental imagery too badly. I kind of winced at the Jade Forest (or whatever it was), but I guess that was a given that 'jade' was going to figure in somewhere.
I just hope they actually worked with those knowledgeable in Chinese culture and didn't say "Hey! Wouldn't it be cool if...."
I'm just happy that they didn't go for the worgen part 2 path.
ReplyDeleteI'll grant you that, Antlergirl, but apparently Blizz changed the Worgen female from design through Beta, so it ain't over until it's over.
