technically scrapped tauren + worgen project
🕑 Added 2021-03-23 09:39:14 +0000 UTCThis is a rather old one from around 2018.
So a long time ago on Tumblr, I remember saying that I would create my version of this pic by BadCoyote, and that I would do it after I exported the then-new Highmountain Tauren assets. I went through with my commitment, and this was the resulting pic. You can see how I followed my reference fairly closely, while adding a few flourishes of my own.
The only other interesting thing I can say about my creative process for this picture is that I drew in all those "particle" effects by hand. I'm still mostly impressed with what I was able to do there.
So why do I consider this project technically scrapped? What you're seeing here is complete, but I wanted to do so much more with this project. My original idea was this:
The Tauren was in a dreamlike state of delusion. He would've been interacting with himself in this setting (the two scrapped pictures I attached represent that idea). His other self would be trying to convince him to "give in" by licking, touching, teasing, etc. his body. Eventually, the Tauren would lose control to his other self. And that's when he would've "snapped back" to reality to shoot his milk, where it would be revealed that this evil Worgen was messing with him the entire time.
Would I remake this with my original idea? Possibly. But as it is right now, I have way too many Tauren-related projects and commissions (and scraps), so it'd be wise to step away from Tauren for now for the sake of variety.
