It would be nice if dyes got added right to the housing UI like furniture because opening my bags right now is like

Now that it's been a few weeks and time to play with the housing system, it's housing masterpost time!

I would love to see what everyone's been working on. If you have something you'd like to show, please post it in a comment here! I want to see e v e r y t h i n g.

A big wish for upcoming WoW housing items are more everyday clutter. We have a large selection of forges and anvils, but no forks, no bowls, no dishes, no folded towels or blankets, no living clutter. I make due with pillow fabrication but my soul desires more mundane everyday items.

A few more housing tweaks. I can't stop adding. I can't stop redoing. I've done nothing else for two and a half weeks. My trading post tasks languish, my weeklies collect dust.

I think I can finally call the bedroom and the bathroom complete, at least until I get more furniture types in Midnight which will definitely get me to redo my house.

Now on to the rest of the place.

I've gotten so many DMs about my spiral staircase, here's a few breakdown screenshots. The two items are just a pillar of your choice and a beam style of your choice. The beams are default size and only adjusted up or down depending on your character's height using the empty staircase room!

Some work in progress shots of my coffee shop with an apartment above it. I'm quite proud of how some of this is turning out.

I don't think I ever posted some of ye olde 2016 chibi vaard reactionary images (and one more recent meme in the nearer last decade) that still occasionally get used to this day

Soon I get my forever home. It's a mere few months away. I can barely contain my excitement.

I'm finally farming up mount grinds I've been putting off for well over a decade. I love these old mounts so much. I just wish draenei didn't always have a chronic case of Tiny Mounts. It's more than a little painful for 99% of mounts.

I'm so happy to finally have these two after so long.

The new lean emote's great. I get to hang out with Brann in delves while I wait for CDs to come back before a last boss.

The new lean emotes are SO fun. I've been going through my raid farm alts just to look at them all. I love that they have idle loops as well. What a fun addition.

After fighting this wall of a boss all week I am free and ready for Season 3

Vaard's 7th legion set is finally being retired as he himself retires to buy that coffee shop and pick up some for-hire work on the side.

There's still placeholder pieces and the belt eludes me, but this is the vibe of his new 'affordable average guy adventurer' set. Art of this will be next.

This bountiful event is a lot of fun.

Rivendare's Charger in particular has elude me for well over a decade after seeing it drop once in my noob days but I didn't roll on it, not knowing both factions could use it. That cursed memory has been erased. I can rest easy and no longer be haunted by it.

If I don't get my belt drop by tuesday I'll probably go ahead and post the new mog even if it still has some placeholder pieces. Vault RNG for mythic tints has not been kind to me the last month of trying to get what I'm after.

I might not have sketches yet, but I can at least post the new mog!

Happy fathers day to all of the dads out there!

After 7 years in the same mog, I'm finally retiring Vaard from the 7th Legion set and retiring him from the Stormwind army as a whole. He's getting that coffee shop and moving to a more basic adventuring armor set that I can show off later once I get the last pieces for it.

I'll get a reveal soon!

One hope for WoW housing is the ability to add decoration permissions to friends. One thing a friend and I loved to do is hide a cursed little doll in each other's houses in XIV for the other to find occasionally, and it turned into a multi-year long tradition.

I'd love to be able to do that in WoW

I am so excited for player housing. The recent player previews look great and I can't wait to get my hands on it. It's gone above and beyond what I dared to hope for out of WoW.

Regardless of how limited/bountiful the furniture themes are at launch, I can't wait to start fabricating stuff.

Guess who's slowly starting to draw again. I have so much rust to knock off.

Suspenders are not a bad idea for draenei when it comes to their tails and clothing fit.

Playing Ark Survival Evolved with @pridemother.bsky.social

When setting up just off a beach in the first hour, we had the misfortune of a giganot that wandered onto said-beach. We had to pack up and leave asap.

Not even endgame tames are safe against a roaming giga.

Vaard's name is surprisingly punnable and I've gotten some really hilarious ones from people over the years.

'It's a Vaard knock life' still lives rent free in my head.
