Fan Continues Nightborne Character Customization Demonstration

we cast a spotlightupdate on Reddit

Just showing off what I've managed to do the last couple of days. Few more things that need fixing, clipping stuff here and there but so far I'm glad I've managed to figure out how to add the NPC's effects on the Nightborne male model.

Assets belong to Blizzard, including the modified assets featured in this video. All of my support goes to the employees who had to deal with the toxic and abusive environment at Blizzard. Wish you all the best, I hope this company gets better and I hope that all of the people who wishes to stay at Blizzard because it is their dream job find back the faith they once had in this company.

I used the sculpting tool on Blender to edit a dupe of the original face shape and tweaked it. If I recall well Blizzard said the animations would be an issue in regards to this but I didn't have any issue with them.

Comment by cellardoorendsokay i guessComment by dlbert2000If the game was in a good state, then sure we could consider even more character customization. But it's not in a good state, this shouldn't even remotely be a priority on anyone's list at BlizzardComment by MerlinTheElfAbsolutely amazing work! :D Shame we won't see this in the live game.. :cComment by 2080020Still waiting for OG orcs to get Grommash hair. Pretty insulting that they gave Yrel horns to both Lightforge and standard Draenei but if you want glorious, long barbarian hair as an orc you have to change to Mag'har, even if you prefer being green.Comment by Killswitch1Clearly needs to be hired in "the new Blizz"Comment by SeganoThat feels when someone who gets paid $0 makes better WoW characters than a company making billions a year in player subs.Comment by youmeandgravityAs a Nightborne player this is so f*cking sick this person did a great job. We deserve more customization options!Comment by leowowAnd what was the difference?. He made a Fel Nightborne?.Comment by ekrietlowsolid work.

Honestly, fans love to do this stuff. They could just as easily pay him for his work, or outright ask for voluntary submissions.

I can only IMAGINE the outpouring of ideas that would come in for a game people still love regardless of the anti-hype that has existed for the last 10+ years of its existence and multiple expansions.Comment by ZkajavierAnd what was the difference?. He made a Fel Nightborne?.Comment by draeneighgotta love how many fans do designs for blizzard that would make the game stunning, and blizz just... doesn't even attempt to copy it let alone commission people to turn the designs into game assets.i guess we have a job-culture reason now as to why blizz won't do more customizations and cosmeticsComment by LimeRegitIf Blizzard is looking for new ideas, this fan may be just the person for them to sit down with.

This is pretty cool. Not that Blizzard would ever do it for free...Comment by kasper203Yes it looks cool, but its way too much for character customization, it just looks like armour.Comment by rosefluffDoes this person have a twitter, would love to see if they have other works!Comment by Saladin27Does this person have a twitter, would love to see if they have other works!Comment by Xahrackugreat work!Comment by JaigarI'm still upset about Nightborne heritage armor. All the nightborne bosses in NH were all scantily clad with runic stuff going on. The heritage armor? A bulky quilt. Sure, I managed to make a decent looking Nightborne set after they let you hide chest, but ugh. It was just something that made it seem like they weren't talking internally.Comment by RakenessaaWould LOVE some new Nightborne features.
