The Draenei, the Monk and the Wardrobe is a recurring installment of World of Warcraft transmogrification tales. Join us as we eye every seam, embroidery, and color scheme down to the last button. Do not be fooled by the title; we will certainly take a look at transmogrifications for all classes and races.

Welcome to another edition of The Draenei, the Monk and the Wardrobe. Last week we took a stab at transmogrifying Azeroth’s newest class, the monk, but this week the spotlight falls upon on one of World of Warcraft’s most iconic classes: the hunter.

Traditionally, hunters are dressed in the skin of their foes, and it is not uncommon to see them wearing the heads of murlocs, sauroks or dragons. Even poor Shannox did not escape this rather gruesome fate, eye patch still attached and all.

It makes sense for a hunter to wear gear that camouflages them out in the wild while they’re stalking their prey. However, depending on the environment, camouflage can look very different; Duskwood, Firelands, or the jungle all requires their own distinctive attire.

So brace yourselves, because this is going to be a long post containing more than one draenei, and quite possibly horns, hoofs and the occasional tail as well (I swear, we will feature other races soon™).

The following two outfits were put together by the lovely @solovala, hunter extraordinaire, and all around fabulous lady.
