So Might be an odd thing to post about, but I generally go to deviant art to find my avatar photos for discord and name change myself to the character im currently playing or generally what I’m maining. only issue is…
IM A HIGHMOUNTAIN TAUREN BLOOD DEATHKNIGHT!
No one…and I mean NO ONE has fantasized about that. Ive scoured deviant art and found nothing. worst part is if you type Tauren at all in deviant art it shows the bull version not the highmountain moose, so you have to exclude that wording in the searchbar and just type highmountain blood deathknight, and thats still a mouthful. Deviant art seems to look at the first word you type and go off of that. I even got desperate enough to type highmounain venthyr to see if anything would come of it…but to no avail.
I’ve so far settled on just typing highmountain and found a couple of decent pics but nothing of what I was truly imagining in my head. Please let me know if you find anything better. I personally was looking for some awesome blood swirlies around the avatar atleast lol.
or you could idk commission your own art?

Yea can always just pay an artist to do it
Instead of just lurking around trying to snatch up someone else’s work using it for your own sick purposes

Interesting choice of words to describe why deviant art is created, lol.
Have you played with any AI image generators to see if they can make anything you like?
Lately I have been having fun with https://www.bing.com/images/create
if you have a microsoft account.

This is actually a really smart idea, I didnt think of it but this is the option ill probably use in the near future. Genius! thank you for being so helpful.
Im not artistic enough to do it.
I didnt really think of it as sick…ITs just a discord avatar lol.
Commission means paying someone to draw for you.
Taking art from deviantart is called art theft and is frowned upon greatly.
Your best bet is using that ai art generator. try and describe what you want thoghrougly. The machine wont know what a highmountain tauren is; just say a bipedal moose or something like that.
A neat and free way to get an avatar is to take a cool in game screenshot, resize it, and bam.
If you wish to commishion a piece that’s on you, but it usually costs a bit.
This reminds me of when I joined a WoW server, and I was welcomed by someone using my character as their icon… it was my art.
exclude “Blood”
HIGHMOUNTAIN TAUREN DEATH KNIGHT
yielded like 3ish results over 5 years, although it wasnt on DA
point is, at least “someone” has considered the combination.
to get exactly what you want, you’d prob have to commission it yourself.
Alternatively you might try using the addon “Narcissus” which has a in game character posing feature that you can adjust and set up that “perfect” shot and then use the screenshot instead.
