Gnoll encounters
🕑 Added 2023-01-14 18:17:42 +0000 UTCThey should've never let me download Blender! We now have a gnoll model at our disposal. Here's an animation that's more or less a "first draft" for this idea I had a while back.
I was happy to see that the gnoll model was updated in Dragonflight. Being both a classic mob from vanilla and featured heavily in the new DF zones, I figured this was a good one to use as more practice for putting together my own models.
My original idea was to show an arrogant Alliance party venturing into a gnoll cave and getting caught up in some shenanigans. I figured if a lot of people liked it, I could then do a Horde version as well.
I've been working on the gnoll model itself since late last year, and I was hoping to put this animation together over the holidays. Last month's Sylvanas animation took more time than expected though, and I realized that animating a bunch of characters would also require that much more time.
So instead, I decided to focus on one pairing (human & gnoll) and then just show the other (unpolished) pairings briefly in the background. I would like to finish those at some point to release a longer animation, but I have to switch gears for now and focus on my backlog more.
Let me know what you think of using mobs from the game like this, and feel free to add to this animation by requesting it in the monthly polls if you like (i.e. finish the other two pairings here, or add a completely new pairing of your choice).
The full animation is attached to this post, and the individual angles can be found in the archive. Hope you like it!

Great animation, looking forward to more of this :)

Agreed. Makes it feel more like a "scene" than just an animation loop.

Even if there are extras standing still in the background, the work becomes even better. It is a good choice to improve quality while reducing working time. Like Tyrande and Jaina3
