As the first week of Mogolympics drew to a close, three of the nine medal results were revealed. But in case you missed out on the Opening Ceremony, take a moment to check it out.
So far we’ve seen a wide range of really great mogs. I really don’t envy the judges or JD for that matter – especially with 40+ competitors to get through.
As a recap, I was representing Ramkahen for this epic event.
The criteria for each medal qualifying round:
- Cycling – Build a biker outfit to compliment the Chopper. It must be either Leather or Mail
- Hammer Throw – Build an outfit around your favourite two-handed hammer
- Discus – Build an outfit around one of the shield skins here
Here are my contributions for the first three events.
Cycling (Mail)
Head: Mok’Nathal Beast-Mask
Shoulder: Talondeep Spaulders
Chest: Ghostworld Chestguard
Belt: Lifecycle Waistguard
Legs: Legguards of Nature’s Power
Boots: Cleated Ice Boots
Gloves: Gloves of the Passing Night
I don’t quite remember how this transmog started but it soon developed into a more ‘beastly’ mog so I thought it would be cool if my Mogolympian in her human form brought out her inner worgen.
Hammer Throw (Paladin Plate)
Head: Crimson Beholder Eye
Shoulders: Burden of Mortality
Chest: Crystalforge Chestguard
Gloves: Gauntlets of Annihilation
Belt: Girdle of the Righteous Path
Legs: Crystalforge Legguards
Boots: Boots of the Protector
Hammer: Hammer of the Naaru
After a recent LBR, Coolidge managed to score the Hammer from Gruul’s Lair so I thought it would be fun to try a mog for it.
Discus (Paladin Plate)
Head: Helm of the Thousand Needles
Shoulder: Spaulders of the Righteous
Chest: Breastplate of Avenging Flame
Belt: Vicious Gladiator’s Clasp of Cruelty
Legs: Legguards of the Emerald Brood
Boots: Sapphiron’s Scale Boots
Gloves: Diemetradon Plate Gloves
Off-Hand: Glyphed Buckler
There was a definite ‘Tron-like’ feel to this but I wasn’t sure if it was due to the blue tones or the disc itself. Either way, this was one of my favourite designs in the competition. Ok, so maybe Tron / Riverdance :P
I remember noticing the wolf helmet in the Cycling and thinking that was a really great touch. Your Hammer and Discus outfits are great, too. :D
It’s always exciting to see the outcome of the events to see if my favorites make it to the top. It’s also fun to see who was who afterwards!
Those were great, and earned top marks!
I saw your dwarf one! And bike one is certainly eyecatching with the details on the legs, I like it. And your hammer toss is definitely eyecatching – Love that pose!
Your cycling outfit and bike reminds me of Catwoman in the Dark Knight Rises. =)
Those are all great, I especially <3 your cycling outfit. Very original and that mask….awesome!
Wow, that last outfit is absolutely stunning! Nice job on these :)
Kam/Navi – Thanks ladies :)
@Tome – That’s what I was thinking… easier than matching the tabard to the blog/name/post :)
@Matty – That’s sweet, thx :D
@Arv – I still haven’t seen it =/ hopefully soon though
@Euphy/Töki – Thx you 2 :)
