[wow][character design] New Draenei Here

Description

Somehow ended up with a draenei character, so I've been thinking about his design for some days now... I'm not sure if this is 100% what I want and usually when I get more used to drawing a character, some further stylization and streamlining happens, but I think this is a ... good starting point at least?

He is a draenei paladin ("vindicator" if you will) and he isn't really that sour or anything, just sort of no-nonsense.

The color palette is practically made with process of elimination. Didn't want white, pink, purple, red or silver? Black+gold was the most paladin-ish color palette that was left. I do feel like I've been making characters with gold frills a lot lately though... but it so paladin-y, though!! Plus my starting point was more "holy demon" than "space goat" and black+gold goes well with that, too.

He has no name yet, trying to find a suitable one. I have an idea!! But I'm not sure if I'm sold on it. I’m really bad at names, usually I just kind of … stumble upon a suitable name or know instantly what the character’s name is supposed to be. Latter didn’t happen here, so waiting for the former to happen.

(there is probably like 5 people who prefer draenei dudes to draenei women and... I'm one of them. It's not that I dislike draenei women or anything, but I feel draenei men are severely under appreciated and I want more of them, now.)
