Just because you don't like something doesn't mean it's bad. Art is a highly subjective thing, but I think that's been covered already. I love the new druid models.
The armor in Wrath is supposed to look different from the armor in the Burning Crusade. Outland is a
different planet
. Things were supposed to look
alien
and like nothing we had ever seen before.
You claim to be an artist, so do you think would it make sense for armor from a frozen wasteland ravaged by hoards of undead to be neon? And for that matter, would you really want to be plodding along wearing technicolor in a snow field with said hoards of undead looking for some tasty morsel to chew on?

Let's take a little journey through a conversation between Blizz and its customers.
C: OMG, LLLLAAAAGGGGGGG in Shat! WTF, Blizz?
B: Well, we've tried a couple of different things, but we haven't quite addressed the major issue behind all the lag.
C: Whatever, just make the game playable, noobs.
B: Here, we've reduced the graphical load by making the gear have similar models and textures. That should help your framerates in the next expansion.
C: WTF, Blizz? Why does the gear all look the same? Epic fail art is epic fail.
It's easier for a graphics card to replicate the same model and recolor the same texture in one space than it is for the same graphics card to render a different model and texture for each class and race. Ask yourself if you want the game playable or pretty. Until the PC baseline is raised much higher than the current baseline, you can't have both.

Very pertinent, rymmie, thanks for that. I never knew there was a connection there.
And good job on the conversation, too. :) I can't imagine what it must be like to work for Blizzard with all that gets thrown at them all the time.

I love the forms (The bands and jewelry are awesome IMO), and the colors, but I don't like the way the cat form tail moves. It looks like a limp noodle floppin' in the wind, and bothers me.
And I haven't paid attention to tier gear, I'm still working my way to 80.
