Now that everyone has had a chance to check out the new art for druid cat and bear forms, we'd like to share with you the current break down of tauren skin tones and night elf hair colours associated with each form colour. Please note that, while we have attempted to associate each form colour as carefully as possible, this list is subject to change before the next major content patch goes live.

All options for skin tone (tauren) and hair colour (night elves) are listed below followed by the forms that will be associated with each set of tones/colours. Listed in parentheses after each form colour is the placement in which you'll find that form in the screen shots found here in our "Updated Druid Forms Coming Soon" preview: http://www.wow-europe.com/en/info/underdev/druidforms.html

I think it's important to see the new forms as what they are: a range of new models and skins that you can choose from in some way. Let's not forget that Druids have been requesting new or re-worked forms for a very long time, and now they are almost here.

Rather than potentially delaying their release by working on new or updated functions for the barbershop, we've instead got a simple way of choosing which of the new models you want. This seems to me to be a first step, much like the appearance of the barbershop with the initial selection of new hairstyles was. Now that the first step is about to be made for new forms, who knows what we might do in the future to allow Druids to choose from these models in a way other than how we currently intend to implement them.

Seems more important, at least in my eyes, that the new forms are no longer in the "new forms is something we would like to do sometime" status, and have now actually been seen by the community and are much closer to actually being in-game than ever before.

Personally, even though my Druid isn't feral, I'm still quite pleased new models are coming.

Q u o t e:
Will there be a rewamp (or whatever the word is) on our moon spamming kins or our little trees?

It may seem that if we are updating cats and bears, that we'd be updating other forms also. However that question lies within the realm of subjects that I have no news to reveal to you, unfortunately.

But my own Moonkin shares your interest in this topic.
