Just bumping this thread today with some images (not mine btw, all the sources will be referenced) that can maybe illustrate examples on the “scar” part of the petitions (also some runic scarifications too):

From the “Blood elves discussion thread” in MMO:

Smh, even the comissioned fanart pictures the Belves with facial scars… but sure “jewerly” was IcOnIc.

Aaand to finish: some nerd examples from anime (ergo general scar models):

For damaged ears I may need the help of someone who can draw to save his/her life (my drawings are a crime against humanity).

My favorites are the tattoos.

I’d like to see damaged ears for blood elves and Scourge scars besides my desperately wanted Dark Ranger customization.

go with
potential customization idea:
a new spec for every class that includes a shapeshift into an unique race with preset gear appearance. examples are:

warlock
spec: necromancer
shapeshift: lich or banshee
pets: undead


priest
spec: mindcontroller
shapeshift: naga
pets: charmed npcs


druid
spec: faery magic
shapeshift: dryad/keeper of the grove
pets: sprite darters


hunter
spec: dark ranger (belf if horde, nelf if alliance)
shapeshift: dark ranger
pets: whateva

well you helped create the idea. i was always a bit perplexed on hunter spec for the new specs concept and have always supported horde getting dark rangers and san’layn

p.s. any suggestions for san’layn?

I wouldn’t mind having new hair styles or added to current what the void elves have but opposite. A toggle to add light effects to the hair.

With runic scarifications, plain scars and a side of damaged ears for me, please.

Some other examples:

From Evaddon from the MMO thread, my fav as far as runic designs btw (I mistakenly believed it was one image, not two separate ones):

DISCLAIMER ALERT: SENSITIVE IMAGES AHEAD, IF YOU ARE SOFT ON THE STOMACH OR GET TRIGGERED BY IRL SKIN WOUNDS OR BLOOD, ABSTAIN FROM LOOKING FROM NOW ONWARDS!!!

Some irl examples of scarifications (and oh my, are these people VERY brave cause that looks painful AF. Cool but painful. i kinda like the implications):

This one i like cause if the feathers aren´t given to the Belves as customizations cause of “Alleria” issues, maybe them Belves could go the extra step to put them on their bodies regardless?:

These last ones I like cause they´re a combination on regular “painted” tattoos put together with the scarifications. It could make the whole scarification thing pretty unique on the Belves:

Ok DISCLAIMER is over from here onwards. Now about the designs of the magical runes:

Some potential rune models from FMA (made ofc by Hiromu Arakawa sensei):

Some symbols from irl alchemy stuff, mysticism from nordic culture and general “magic” trends:

Hehehe… I´m trying to figure out stuff that can be “doable” by Blizz. Personally, I´d like a combination between scarification art and regular tattoo art (so the scars appear “colored” on the Belf toons.

An extra step… magical effects on hair. Belves are a magically inclined race, if a Blood Knight can enchant his/her hair a Magister sure as hell can do it too!!

Indeed magical hair cause we can hardly classify the green version as “arcane”… that´s Fel.

2003 game engine limitations pls understand :joy:

Can we get more mana tech stuff. I always really liked the mana robots. I’m not saying go all cyberpunk but it’s clear the Mages and engineers have been collabing.
