Undead Death Knight

Ironically, my undead death knight is not super into the "skulls and bones" aesthetic of most of the death knight sets. Instead, I wanted to go with an "executioner" vibe, which I think I accomplished here. The result is a little more minimal, a little sleeker, a little more medieval looking. For full commit you'd want to go with one of the scythe-like axe or polearm models, but Armageddon just fit the set so well and looks so freaking awesome I couldn't resist using it!

Dwarf Death Knight

Sorry about the unannounced vacation -- RL got real busy all of a sudden! But I'm back, with some more original mogs this week. For my dwarf Dwath Knight, I wanted something in the vibe of "frost dwarf champion" or even "fallen mountain king." I couldn't make either concept really work 100%, so this is sort of a mixture of the two. I really like the Wrath Scourgelord's Frigid Battleplate set (and Wrath armor in general) for dwarves, which matches the Tier 10 chest/legs pretty well (I like the extra bulkiness of the legs). The tabard I could take or leave, but the weapons are just awesome, and super frost dwarf looking. If this was actually a character of mine I'd probably keep working on this set a little bit more, but for now I'm happy with it.

Human Death Knight

Sorry about the unannounced vacation, nonexistent readership, I've been extremely busy in RL -- still am! But let's see if I can get back to updating this bi-weekly anyway. Without further ado, here's Rivane, my Alliance main before Warlords. I have feelings about this transmog. One the one hand, it really captures the concept of a fallen champion of the Alliance, built around the Thassarian's Battlegear set with its dark blues and faded golds. The tabard is a perfect match, and the belt and boots are pretty close, as well (I really hate the blocky giant boots style). But they're only pretty close and the colors are just off enough to annoy me. It's unnoticeable in-game, but in the model viewer, ugh. I have similar issues with the cape, but there's nothing that really matches the colors the way I'd like. So the whole thing is merely good enough. In an expansion or two, when I can solo heroic MoP raids, I'll probably start working on this radically different dragoon-esque set.

Orc Death Knight

Gorehl is one of my current mains in Warlords, and my oldest active main. I imagine that after the war in Northrend, he committed himself fully to the Horde, serving them now as a commander and champion. His transmog reflects both his death knight nature and his Horde allegiance. The red versions of the iconic death knight gear matches the Hellscream's Reach Tabard perfectly, and the Tier 10 chest/legs add some variety. The Tier 9 sword obviously has a strong Horde aesthetic, but also appears to be a runeblade. The result is a very striking death knight of the Horde.
