Scorpion (Mortal Kombat) - The Amazing Transmog Survivor Contest!

Round two: Fight!

Round two of The Amazing Transmog Survivor Contest was to create a Transmog based on a character from Mortal Kombat. JD's rules were to "choose a toon and basically create a costume emulating one of the characters from in the game.  Perhaps your Goblin will put on his best Scorpion or Sub-Zero costume…perhaps your Night Elf will grab a fan and look like Princess Kitana.  The choice is yours and any character is fair game.  Speaking of which, the full list can be found here.  As is the norm, the outfit must be a proper endgame Mog."

Round two results can be seen here: The Amazing Transmog Survivor Contest - Round Two "FIGHT" These mogs were absolutely astonishing. People did a phenomenal job matching up outfits with their characters of choice. Check em out!

I chose to build my transmog around Scorpion. I went through a LOT of potential mogs before I finally landed on one I liked. This is what I came up with.~

Disciple of Har'koa - The Amazing Transmog Survivor Contest!

JD is at it again with another transmog competition. This one is called The Amazing Transmog Survivor Contest! Check out the details over at his blog here.

For the first round, the rules were to "Design a Disciple of Har’koa.  Not the funky folk that have her chained, but use her as inspiration for your toon were that it were a follower of said Spirit." (See screenshot toward bottom of post.)

There were some awesome entries in this round. All of them can be seen here: Amazing Transmog Survivor Contest – Where I Start Snuffin’ Torches. (Thankfully RNG was kind to me this round, so I'll be around for another.) This is the outfit I submitted. ~
