Background Story

Farseer Nobundo is a Broken shaman farseer. One of the most tragic heroes among the Broken of Outland, Nobundo was formerly a draenei vindicator but lost the ability to call upon the Light during the fall of Shattrath City and was deformed by the fel energies released. Shunned by his people, Nobundo took up the calling of the shaman while wandering the wilds of Outland, and introduced it to his people with the blessing of the wise Prophet Velen. He would accompany his people to Azeroth onboard the Exodar, and guide new draenei shaman as they began on their path.
In the wake of the Cataclysm, Nobundo has lent his services to the Earthen Ring to help calm the raging elements of Azeroth.

Nobundo_Portrait (Model)

It looks good, whilst the custom animations are appreciated I feel like some are a little janky looking and could use some smoothing and tweaking, for example the two attack animations, his arm is very dynamic whilst the rest of his body seems quite static. The death animation looks terrific though.

I fully agree on that, because strange things happen like leg dancing in Stand Ready (though I like dancing!) and 360 degree head rotation in Death and some other.

You guys are good at making custom mesh that recreates the character (although I find it quite HD), however, the model may lose in charisma because of any faulty animations. I hope you're eager to push the boundaries in this direction and add more grace to your eye-catching pieces 👍

Looking like a true protossdraenei, native of Draenor, not that space goat retcon crap. Those are eredar, full stop.

I remember reading the short story they posted on the Blizzard website about Nobundo, and how he was outcast when he and the other Draenei started to mutate. Was really touching. Glad lesser-known characters like him are getting unique models.
Yeah, quite a similar story with the protoss in the first StarCraft manual with the Dark Templar xD
