At the beginning of the expansion, I was dead set on having my Outlaw Rogue join the Venthyr covenant. The transmog items were just too gosh darn sexy to pass-up and come on, a covenant full of Vampires and Gargoyles, yes please! Sadly, the Venthyr ability for Rogue stunk, this was before the rework. Plus, tea parties and high society shindigs were just not Pete's thing.

After spending hours retesting the abilities of the other three covenants, Pete joined the Night Fae. In the long-run, this was probably the best decision I could have made. Not only do the Night Fae players have cool animal soulshapes, but Pete gets to hang out with demented fairies!

After getting several soulshapes, in my opinion, the Velociraptor is the most fitting for Sneaky Pete. Not only that, but I've been wanting an excuse to apply tattoos to his body. ;)

My initial idea for this piece was significantly different than the final result. In fact, a guildie of mine came up with the brilliant idea of having Pete pouncing on one of the Drust Brutes in a decaying section of Ardenweald. This piece was a tremendous struggle, mostly due to leg issues with the male Forsaken model. Weight paint may overcome this specific issue, but confession time, I'm still rather clueless as to how that all works. It is evident, I am certainly not ready to accept commissions. If it was such a struggle for me to produce a concept, a guildie would give, imagine a potential client's idea.

Admittedly, I am extremely proud of the floaty fireball things in the back. When imported into Blender, they were blank slates. Employing a technique learned from Belvane to create spells, I was capable of making them closely resemble their in-game counterparts. That tattoo effect is possible thanks to TheRealShanBear, who was kind enough to share their shader for giving Nightborne body art a reflective look. I merely made some minor tweaks.
