Hey watchers, I realize this probably doesn't concern the majority of you. Those of you who play or have played WoW might know exactly what this is about.
I figured that since Blizzard is finally working on the female worgen for realsies, it is a good time to post some suggestions for the model.
Here's some more in-depth reasoning of the edits:
The whole worgen female model is a clusterfuck of "do we make her cute or not". It appears they wanted to go for a muscular look, but then halfway through decided to keep the body nice, skinny and cute :3 teehee. Same for the face; snarly chihuahua from the side, no snarl/cutesy on the front. She has hideous, huge, bulging eyes but they appear to have heavy makeup for some reason.
The face: should be obvious honestly. Less chihuahua, more wolf. Note the nose as well. I would also be fine with a perma-snarl like the males have, but the current one is atrocious. I have left the whites of the eyes visible for a more feminine/humanized look, but would be fine without. The worgen female face should be able to display actual expressions and leave room for customization.
The hair: I don't mind the "mane is hair" -idea. What we have currently is just extremely poorly executed and severely lacks customization options.
The boobs: Current tits defy gravity like no other, and they have an odd cone shape. Boobs don't need to be big, but they shouldn't float, either. Not even muscular women have tits like this. I hope whoever designed the female worgen has seen an actual woman since then.
The body: As I said, the whole worgen female looks like they wanted to create something muscular but skinny-cutesy at the same time. I don't think it's a bad idea to make them muscular to the point of looking slightly masculine. The difference in the male/female body is already huge, why make the females look weak as well? I don't see any other reasoning for leaving the muscles out except that people might not find her attractive, which is odd considering how they designed the rest of her fearing people might find her attractive.
I was going for a look that fits the male worgen, but is a little more humanized to suit the general sexual dimorphism of the worgen and other races. I also didn't want to completely ditch the current model since the worgen are a playable race.

This is a gorgeous work-up suggestion for the female worgen. I mained a worgen rogue through Cataclysm and just LOVE her to bits, RPed her etc, but I finally got so fed up with her in-game appearance that I shelved her and just RPed her outside of the game. I'm dying to play her again officially and I'm hoping whatever they come up with will breathe new life into her and my worgen druid. She's feral though so it's somewhat less of an issue for her lol.
I agree. I'm glad that they're FINALLY going be dealing with fixing the Worgen models. Been needed for like a couple years now, honestly. Having more expressive faces would definitely be nice. More customization options would also be nice. I've seen a lot of people put in examples and drawings of what a worgen 'should' look like. Or at least their interpretation anyway. The always snarly face just doesn't work well.
Granted, I think the female worgen definitely had it worse, there are a lot of things I dislike about the male worgen model as well.

Short answer: It's not perfect but I'm quite happy! Biggest problem is it's still not like the male, at all.
Long answer: It's a huge improvement, and honestly if that's what we get I will be happy with it. My biggest gripe is that it still doesn't match the male model. One bit.
Now it has massive cartoon eyes, and if they wanted to avoid making it look like a furry in the first place this is obviously the wrong way to go. I don't see why they couldn't stick to giving the model similar eyes to the males, which do look really nice in the update. And if I wanted to go full-on feminist foaming at the mouth it's obviously a little lame that the female worgen is so cartoony and cutesy compared to the male. I don't usually make a big deal about this but it seemed at the start that Blizz was adamant about making the female worgen a beast as much as the male.
The body looks fine to me, I would add some core muscles, right now she just looks skinny (doesn't have to be a bodybuilder sixpack like in my drawing, but just... something). Arms are good though.
Plenty of positives tho! I think the new model gives way to a lot of customization that wasn't there with this old abomination. That, and her expressions are very cute. I'm also expecting actual eye colors. It's nice!
Also, awesome you asked. I've been mulling this over in my head so it was nice to type it out.
