Update Druid Form Models

Hello everyone, Blizzcon is a few weeks away and I thought about bringing up this topic again!

Here’s a list of druid forms I think need updating as of now. Productive feedbacks and other suggestions are appreciated.

Moonkin (just needs to be different from actual owlbeasts; plus I recall that some in the wild (ex. Mooncrazed Owlbeast in Val’sharah) didn’t get the model update)
Night Elf: Has NE or sentinel owl eyebrows
Worgen: Has their flight form’s toothy beak; shorten the ears like the Taur moonkin form
Tauren: Has two streaks of blue face paint on beak
Troll: their color palette should be akin to either the blue and yellow macaws or the military macaws; has a cockatoo feather mohawk to replace the antlers, and has tusks on sides of beak with white face paint like their bear form
Highmountain Tauren: Has two streaks of red face paint on beak

Travel (update cheetah model for glyph; female NE, Worg, and Taur have the doe form by default and get the same color and style as the stag counterpart, therefore remove glyph of the doe)
NE: stag/doe; has the same original Alliance stag coloring and ornaments, but with NE eyes and eyebrows
Worg: stag/doe; takes appearance like the original Horde stag, but with dark grey fur, Worg eyes and replace tribal ornaments with Worg cat form ones
Taur: stag/doe; similar to original Horde stag, but no fangs and has light/dark brown fur and ornaments similar to HTaur travel form
Troll: Raptor like Zandalari Troll, but is red or green colored and has skull/cat form ornaments

Flight (remove glyph of the sentinel)
NE: sentinel owl w/ NE eyes and original ornaments
Taur: same eagle model as HTaur but has bull horns and all brown color like the kalimdor eagles in Stonetalon Mountains; replace ornaments to be like HTaur, but in same color palette as original; has two streaks of blue face paint on beak, but no tattoos on feathers
Troll: update bat model to be like the Witherbark Direwing mount, while retaining its tusks and original colors/ornaments; also has white face paint like their bear form

Treant (add more polygon count) & Incarnation: Tree of Life (should follow the same color/style as treant)
NE: original colored treant with purple leaves, and yellow eyes
Worg: Dark grey treant with dark orange leaves, and yellow eyes
KulHu: pale treant with thorns and green shrubbery, and green eyes
Taur: dark brown treant with pine tree leaves, and blue eyes
Troll: original colored treant with palm tree leaves, and blue eyes
HTaur: same as Taur
ZTroll: same as Troll

Remember when Blizzard said they’d look into adding glyphs for Treant Form and then never followed up on that?

Good times.

I agree with just about everything on this post. If all this became true I will 100% race change back to my darkspear.

IMO doe should be racial just like stag, and be the default for female characters, and the glyph should let you use the alternate form (doe for males, stag for females.)

I just want a more femimum looking cat form, you know, without a mane and all.

Well the expansion leak said that there is going to be a new system called Class Prestige where we can change or apperances and spell apperances too. Hopefully it’s true becuase I am so done with moonkin form and I want my green wrath back.

That sounds like a really cool system, I just hope they don’t trash it immediately after the expansions and leave everyone in a weird limbo with their aesthetics.
