The first week of the Mogolympics featured the Flagbearers, Cycling, and the Hammer Throw.
~*~*~
Flagbearer — Build an outfit around the tabard of your randomly assigned faction. This is the only outfit that is required to coordinate with the tabard. This event did not award a medal.
My randomly assigned faction was Silvermoon City, so of course my flagbearer had to be a Blood Elf!
Praetorian Coif, Bonechewer Shoulderguards, Silvermoon Tunic, Hyena Hide Belt, Ghostclaw Leggings, Mighty Gauntlets, Expedition Boots, Silvermoon City Tabard, Mistyreed Torch
See all the Flagbearers at the Mogolympics Opening Ceremonies!
~*~*~
Cycling — Design a leather or mail biker outfit to complement the Chopper/Mechanohog.
I knew right away that I wanted to use this combination of chestpiece, belt, and leggings. Then, it was just a matter of finding some good shoulders, gloves, and boots. The Phytoresistant Helm looks so much like an RL motorcycle helmet that it was the perfect thing to top off the outfit.
Phytoresistant Helm, Pauldrons of the Abandoned, Dark Iron Mail, Heavy Scorpid Belt, Bloodmail Legguards, Hulking Gauntlets, Felscale Boots
All of the Cycling entries made one bad to the bone biker gang!
~*~*~
Hammer Throw — Build an outfit to complement your favorite 2H Mace.
Although the Conk Hammer is a relatively simple design, it is, indeed, one of my favorite 2H Maces in the game. That’ll leave a mark!
Helm of the Illidari Shatterer, Pauldrons of Zul’Farrak, Grimscale Armor, Heroic Girdle, Talonguard Legplates, Truesilver Gauntlets, Grimscale Sabatons, Conk Hammer
This event saw an awesome array of amazing maces and some equally impressive outfits to go with them!
What? We have yet to see a Tauren? 🙂 I noticed all of your designs as I was perusing the games. Great work!
Thanks!
*psst* Tell you a secret — I didn’t use Tauren for any of my Mogolympics models! They just didn’t quite seem to fit for any of my ideas. *shrug*
our hammer throw outfits are eerily similar (except the skin color)
Haha, so they are! Same pants and gloves, and I definitely considered the belt and boots that you used. 😀
Excellent! A post to showcase your first few entries 🙂 Your running flag bearer still makes me smile every time I look at him and your action shots are great! But your waving biker is a little too friendly looking to be ‘bad to the bone’ 😛
I was thinking of just doing a post at the end when all the results were revealed but you may have just changed my mind about it 😀
*wonders when the discus results are revealed
Hmm, I guess that gesture didn’t come out quite as interpretable as I thought — it’s a frame from the “train” animation, and I had the game of pumping one’s fist at a semi driver to ask them to honk their horn in mind.
I am still eagerly waiting for the Discus results, too!
I’m with Cym, I was going to do a post of all my outfits when the whole thing was done, but maybe we should all be following Chatmay and Kam and posting our outfits so our friends can see them while the events were still fresh!
Well, originally, I, too, was going to do a post with all 10 of my outfits at the very end of the event. After I got that post drafted, however, it occurred to me that that might be too much to digest all at once*, and I decided to break it up into smaller pieces for each week of events. That, and it would make my “Mogolympics” Fashion sub-page prettier to have multiple posts on it, instead of just one 😛
*That was a silly thought, really, considering that some of my other fashion posts have had upwards of 15 outfits in them!
Great outfits Kamalia, I can’t wait to see the rest! Like Nav and Cym, still can’t decide when/how to post my entries. I have been obsessively refreshing my blog list and twitter since Friday waiting for the next round 😉
TY! I look forward to seeing your designs, whenever and in whatever format you choose to post them!
