So the Tauren forms will look like Lions. The NE will probably still look like panther things.
I'm perfectly fine with them having different models. And anything, anything is better then the cat form that Taurens have had to suffer through for five year.

Personally I love the new cat and bear forms, I'm more please with the cat forms however (seeing as i'm never in bear :) ) I absolutely love the fact that they look like a tauren, which I think they had tried to implement in the current cat skins with the horns, but failed miserably with the wyvern look :P
But I would like some NE's ideas of what their cats will look like. I know you have always been jealous of our cats horns (or at least some of you) do you think you will be sporting antlers in the next patch (or something like that)? Non-droopy ears, and instead some NE facial markings? Maybe a mane as well, or a subtle patter? Enough with the QQ, i'm sure your skins will be amazing too, just don't bash us cows for our excitement!

I agree with the OP; don't get me wrong, I love being a tauren, and am all on board with the lion model rather than the panther the night elves get, but this sort of bull-cat, "am I an herbivore or a predator" look really doesn't get it done for me.
Travel form is an actual cat; cat form should be too.

Well that's the thing. They're supposed to look like Tauren when they change forms. Why they have horns in all they're different ones. Same reason Night Elves have huge floppy ears, and are usually purple in they're forms. Supposed to be a racial identity that's present throughout.

I think they should have played with color a bit more than they have especially with night elves. They need Green and purple versions of the cats! :)
A purple panther with glowing green eyes. That would rock.
I don't totally like the braids for Tauren. I chose a distinctly braidless version for my own Tauren Druid.
Why not only use braids if your tauren has braids. Can't say i like the nuclear tattoos much either.
Still I love the detail that has been put into these. Nice job! I only hope the bears can close their mouth once in a while :)

Q u o t e:

You try walking on 6 inches of exposed keratins.
Just because they don't look like nothing but claw doesn't mean they have to look like boxing gloves ;P I was expecting something less round and more... well, like that picture you linked.
But meh, nothing's perfect. The rest of the form looks awesome.

You mean like so many other animals that aren't lions?
Same stories have been played out for ages
