Forum:New druid forms!

Got email from Blizz about 20 mins ago about this:

New art for two druid forms, cat and bear, are coming in the next major content patch. As this has been a much-anticipated update for druids, we'd like to give you a first look at the fresh designs. We'll be offering up the new art for night elf and tauren druid forms in four installments. To kick things off today, let's start with a preview of the new textures available for tauren bear form. Take a glimpse at the new feature and art: http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/underdev/druid-forms.html

Looks pretty cool to me :) 17:28, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

If I read their updated description of the change correctly... then it seems how your toon currently looks will affect how your bear/cat form will look (to a degree). So upon release of 3.2 you'll automatically have a new "look" to your forms, and changing your skin tone (while in humanoid form) will possibly change how your beast forms look... am I reading that right? 05:43, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Hair color for elves, and fur color for tauren, but yes, that's right. -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 06:43, 5 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Well poo.. there goes having a white polar bear and black cat for my tauren... 06:46, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

All the new forms are now up :) Haven't decided on my favourite though ... but it will make levelling my druid a much more pleasant experience. 08:38, 5 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Aww man. I never want to change my hair color, so I'll be preset with a form.   Goodbye old model. :(    22:06, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
 * MMO-Champion posted two pictures with the color combinations (officially confirmed).:
 * Night elf
 * Tauren
 * I personally don't like the color combinations for night elf druids. Especially for night elves with dark blue and green hair -- they just don't fit. 8/--Iggey (talk) 19:27, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
