Welcome to Westfall indeed. I rather like having at least one sort of introductory page for each new area, as such – one with a large pane just for the sake of. Westfall has a rather visually distinct aesthetic, so I’m hoping it’ll set an interesting tone for the while we’re there.

Well, the big red eye glaring at them from beneath the old hat certainly does it! ;)
nice one! i see a fight scene coming up!
I had a flashback to when the worgen with red glowing eyes in Ashenvale were sort of, at the side, glaring at them.. Although they havn’t noticed this time…
I see someone getting a metal claw at them, indeed!
Welcome to Westfall,..
And Hani will be in for a suprise once wqhen one of those scarecrows start to atack them.
Tiny’s opinion about those scarecrows is about to change, very rapidly. Wonder what she will say after, since Hani will probably not say much at all, just her well known glances and looks, which work just fine!
Keep it up!
yet another super page i like the glowing eyes it makes us realise the fact that they are evil
Loving the last panel
If by a unique tone and visual esthetic, you mean brown, boring and grindy, sure :p
I’m kidding, Excellent job on the comic, started reading this when you got linked over at WoW.com the other week, and I got hooked (As well as getting my friends hooked too)
I actually have part a fondness for Westfall in terms of visual look and feel – it’s very “autumny”; the same way I like Azshara (same reason), Darkshore (mist, rain, etc) and Zangarmarsh (night); of course, all four of those are zones I generally also can’t wait to get out of once I’m almost done questing through them..
Anyhow, it’s always good to hear people enjoy it, and that it has the opportunity to find more of its target audience! I have quite a lengthy narrative planned out too really, so I hope it’ll remain interesting throughout the whole journey!
I hope the scarecrow knocks them down
Makes me wonder who on Azeroth would even go trough the proccess of thinking
“HEY! my crow’s need a REAL scare, lets build an army of mechanical weed harvesters.. AN OH! lets also make them look like scarecrows… AND! lets give them…ehm.. RED eyes! to scare people… and.. OH! Tall, and strong!”
Im certain it was a gnome…
and here come the big question.
why couldn’t engineer skin them before 3.2.0
any way any one more then me that think that westfall have an other dialect then Stormwind and elvynn forest plus maybe redrick?
that just something that i have been thinking about an bit from time to time.
second question whit westfall out of order how did stormwind get its food?
and as always wounderfull page.
a few days ago i decided to look at this comic, and in one or two hours i managed to read from first comic to this one word by word!
great comics !
Ofek:
now you have to go back to the start, and read not just the comics, but the commentary as well.
It’s the Strawinator! O.O
Ain’t got more to say about this page really, except the fact that Westfall do look like a mixture of The Barrens and Azshara: dull and desolate but with a autumn feeling to it, which makes it a more interesting place to quest on – not only that, you won’t have to drag with the Barrens chat kiddos the Horde does provide. ;)
I tend to think of Westfall’s color palette as being not merely autumnal, but *harvest*.
As for the harvest golems, they’re probably some goblin’s idea. And he decided that he’d make them look like scarecrows so that they’d serve two purposes at once.
The harvest golems where indeed the idea of one of the goblins employed by the Defias, but they did their job to good, since they drove off or killed the farmers instead of just scaring them in submission. for more info go read WOW RPG Dark Factions and the Monster Guide. both are nice reads even if u don’t do the tabletop.
