Undead Female Character Model Revealed

One of the things I noticed during this year's BlizzCon was that only one race(Gnome) had a complete female/male version to showcase. Of course this can be attributed to not having an available model to show for the other two races(Dwarf/Orc) displayed at the time. The Blizzard team is rather busy nowadays. We can probably cut the Art team a small amount of slack. Just a little mind you. We are afterall rather eager to see what the other character models look like as fast as possible.

In which case during an episode of WoWSource, an online news show that reports all things World of Warcraft, a preview of the new Forsaken/Undead Female Character Model was revealed.

Meet the New:

An ethereal beauty

The face shown is just one of the many that the Blizzard Art team is working on. Notice her eyes are closed. I am wondering if this is because the Undead eyes are a glowy yellow animation. From the show it was said that the model was far enough to showcase but there are still no animations to display as of yet.

Front/Backside Old:

A bit sad, ugly, and out-dated

From the picture above of the old model you can see how badly the Undead Female/Forsake model needed a change. The hands and feet are especially pixelated with jagged square contours. Also the backside of the backbone really does appear 'as if it's a leech' as a developer mentioned on the BlizzCon Art panel.

Front/Backside New:

Not so ugly but more decayed in some instances.

The new Undead/Forsaken Female Character Model appears much more slimmer and smoother around the contours of the body. Although I do notice that the hands are still jagged and large in appearance. The hands really don't quite match up. It still remains to be seen if the Undead/Forsaken Female will lose the hunched over stance. I personally hope that the Blizzard team will do away with the notion that the 'walking dead' are synonymous with bad back pain.
