Ay yi yi. XD

Eye eye eye.

AND it's a GNOME. Gnomes are in their own realm of weird. =oP

No kidding. :(

EYELASHES.

And crotcheye.

LOL, too true. It really started getting bad with Tier 5 armor which was the, to quote a friend, "Fragging Skulls everywhere" armor.


Great pic Dustmeat. =)

LOL, I remember the skulls. Iron Maiden!!

This almost makes me want to play wow. Almost :P

Haha! As soon as I saw this I thought "Hey, Vera would dig this!"

You are a Bad Influence!

Plagueheart is still considered to be the worst tier set ever designed for warlocks, but fortunately, it's not attainable any longer.

"We used to call this sort of thing 'Eyeball Art'" -R. Crumb 7@=E

Yep, Kustom Kulture.

eewww...

It looks different from your usual style. Something familiar about it strikes a haunting chord with me, and I can't figure out what it is. Maybe some book illustrations I saw when I was a child. Or maybe it reminds me of the figures on playing cards. Queen of Eyeballs beats Jack of Spades.

Joe thought the same thing, that it was a departure from my style. I was thinking of Edward Gorey, ddly enough...but also Big Daddy Roth and Heavy Metal.

Huh. I don't get an Edward Gorey vibe from it at all. Playing cards, that's the closest thing I can think of but that's not quite it. Maurice Sendak? It's going to drive me nuts trying to figure out exactly what this reminds me of so strongly.

Rick Tulka. MAD magazine illustrator, late 80s and 1990s. It's in the eyes and the way the shading looks in the thumbnail.

I saw a number of people at the worldcon last week who were dressed more oddly, and they were just the fans.

Wonderful toon/illustration flavor. Color pattern makes it look like one of the better designed 30s or 40s kid's books.

Thanks, I always did like the limited color of my old children's books.

What is it with gnomes and warlocks?

Tier 8.0/8.5 was pretty awesome looking tho :D The rogue one on the other hand....

Nice pic and I hope locks never have to wear that set your poor gnome is

Seen the tier 9 set? Apparently they decided feathers were a lot more awesome than eyeballs.

We look like CHICKENS.;_;

Leeeroyyyy!

Oh man, weirder yet.

"Weird" doesn't adequately describe it.

It looks like it was designed by Andy Worhol.:S

omg! You DO end up looking like a big eyeless, blue bird! ROFL

Now I'm afraid to level my Warlock! Really. He's a big (delibratly) ugly orc brute and eyeballs and a pink boa are SO not gonna help the look.

Now, I can see SHAMANS going into the whole "chicken" look for totems and spirits... but WARLOCKS?

I always feel like... my gear is watching meeeeeee...

Selling your soul to a demon for power? Well worth the price.
Having haunting nightmares every night that wake you up in a cold sweat? I've had those since I was a kid.
Attracting all sorts of ungodly monstrosities and hostile would-be heroes just because of your power? Merely jealous twits who are not worth my time.
Being limited only to the most weird-ass gear in any game?

...

I knew there was a downside to being an evil warlock.

Hahaha! I love it. XD

BC Hunter gear had eyes on the pauldrons and helm... it really made me uncomfortable when raiding.

It takes me back to "Thief: The Dark Project" and its eyeball-flowers that grow within the Maw of Chaos.

While I have no connection to World of Warcraft other than the occasional peeking into WoW Wiki to see how much further can it fall from the grace the original storyline and spirit, I do have to grudgingly admit the considerable Blizzard's success in stuffing so much of everything into one continuity without making it burst at the seams.

And on an unrealted note, you continue to fail to disappoint with every new piece you put out. Those realistic horses, the awesome WoW stuff(I don't like its lore-bending, but I like the style), and the comic, of course - you're like that awesome jazz composition in the otherwise indy punk rock, horrible rap and techno soundtrack that is FA if you converted it into musical equivalents.

lol!

LOL i've seen a Tauren wear shoulders like those, they had big eyeballs in it that MOVED, it was crazy XD

Ugh, I just looked through the tier sets and discovered that tier 6 for mages make them look like a purple Empire State Building. I have that lovely set to look forward to.. 9_9 http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info.....ead-female.jpg

Where do they come up with these insane designs? lol

("Rezzelyn", Spirestone realm)

I see this, and all I can think of is, "Here's lookin' at you, kid."

Yeah, later gear starts getting kinda weird, doesn't it? I think it's mostly because they used up all the nice, normal designs early on, and have to keep trying to "out-do" themselves... ^_^;;

T10: Proof that Blizzard, really, truly does hate warlocks.

I SEE EEEEVERYTHIIIING....
