Join Blizzard’s VP of Art & Cinematic Development Nick Carpenter and Steve Wang of Alliance Studio as they create the Grommash Hellscream statue debuted at BlizzCon 2014.
This isn't art, this is something waaaaaaaaaaaay above! Very good job guys, whenever I watch any cinematic trailer I can feel tingling head to heel! Respect!
+arethion Agreed. I still am awed by a lot of the art and music being put into the game but WoD felt so hollow and Legion looks to have the same problems. I'll stick with Kronos where there's a great sense of community.
The steam effects coming out of the head completed it. *Magnificent* work one and all. The effort you guys put into bringing warcraft to life is unbelievable.
Wow that sculpture was really well done. It gives you an feeling of intensity and pure unbridled force. I love it! Orc for LIFE! Makes me proud... nerdly enough...
I think the whole team deserves a round of applause , can u imagine how much work they done to do that statue, for me its insane. Congratulations and keep going !!! :))
Vanilla Vet here, when I log into the game, I wonder how all this neat stuff is made! Thank you for the documentary! I have 2 sons that really want to 3d model, one starts college in January for it! Wish us luck! Glad to see how this stuff is made for my game!..:) Holy priest, Goblin hunter and a few other toons! for the horde!!
Nick Baars Yup, very much true. I'm still crying on the internet to let them know there's still people that want to fly. It's the internets, don't get all upset. Oh actually, do :)
The only nitpick I would have on this project was that the hair looked very synthetic, too much shine. It needed to be matted down more or use real hair. Other than that... can I have him? :DDDDDDDDDD
SubxZeroGamer It looks like synthetic hair to me unless they got an uncommonly shiny natural hair sample. That's the fastest tell for synthetic hair is that particular shine.Now, there might be some sort of actual reason that they used synthetic hair for it but I couldn't think of any myself. So yeah, I don't think they used real hair because it really does not look like real hair.
+Ben Dover It doesn't have to be good welding. The point is, the welding isn't the main part. it's just support. They spend so long on making their characters look so good for Blizzard, and all you want to do is complain about welding? You should try and create a structure that good, and care about how your welding looks at the end. Anyways, you can't even see the welding. So, don't watch the video if you're going to complain. Anyways, watching their videos makes them more famous. Tbh, smh.
Steve...this is SOOOOO beyond amazing. I knew you were bloody good at your craft but....I HAVE TO share this on my Facebook page. Just brilliant really. Well done. Cheers!
+drumbasher does not matter about the skeleton features when the main thing is the exterior which is the scupture. If you would put alot of effort for the welding then u waste time and money. Trust me being pragmatic and getting things done fast = makes more money than getting everything right. We are talking about taking the right short cuts and concentrating on the important stuff. Dun worry one day you will understand what i mean when you are pushed to do more client based work.
The Ismadi I'm no spring chicken sir, I've been pushed many times by customers/clients to perform a task...but I still completed it with the utmost quality and detail. Being rushed on a job is no excuse for sloppiness! Thanks for assuming you knew me.
Grommash without his teeth at 5:19 is definitely one of the best things ever.
Gave me chills when they did a close up... it's so realistic.
Same!
Jason Rodriguez Same haha!
Alliance Studios, creating Grommash. Oh the Irony!
yes the IRONy......
Lool
"Grommash is going to play a big role in this expansion"
I lol'd
+buldren0101 look at date

Nick: OK Legion is coming we need a Full size Sargeras.
Steve Wang: I quit.
+DarkerNemesis Yes , just yes
+DarkerNemesis lol yeah
+DarkerNemesis He would to it.
ye xD
ikr lol
This isn't art, this is something waaaaaaaaaaaay above!
Very good job guys, whenever I watch any cinematic trailer I can feel tingling head to heel! Respect!
if only their game designers put this much effort into wow
+arethion Agreed. I still am awed by a lot of the art and music being put into the game but WoD felt so hollow and Legion looks to have the same problems. I'll stick with Kronos where there's a great sense of community.
I think it's too late now, they can't bring it back.
arethion lol
Some of the most talented sculptors I've ever seen. That looks amazing. 5:23, however, is more terrifying than the final project.
Can you imagine how badass it would be to have this in your HOUSE?
xenowhore Dude, you should really dust your Grommash
You wouldn't be able to get it through your door, unless you live in a warehouse.
@@casperj.6947 Just take it apart like they did outside and put it back together inside.
Dear Santa...
he isn't real bb
Greg Sucks Dont crush his dreams
Greg Sucks Well Santa is real he lives in lapland
***** First: It isn't even a question...
Second: Common people would think that he meant "Dear Santa - please give me this as a christmas gift".
Greg Sucks
you don't say 0.O
Very proffesional by the blizzard guy, not pressing the time schedule, letting the artists take the time it takes, I salute you for that!
The steam effects coming out of the head completed it. *Magnificent* work one and all. The effort you guys put into bringing warcraft to life is unbelievable.
5:23 Rofl i'm dead.
+Fester i know xD
It's old Grommash lol
Wief wil neveh be saves!!
+Fester omg i'm dying XDDD
I'm done x"DD
3:09 that thing in the background would creep me the fk out at night :P
what thing? we don't see anything.
The creepy Long haired thing.
I know right. I'd love to have it in my home!!
besides 2 duds, its just a crystal clear window behind, what are you guys talking about?
wtf .... there is nothing
Wow that sculpture was really well done. It gives you an feeling of intensity and pure unbridled force. I love it! Orc for LIFE! Makes me proud... nerdly enough...
I think the whole team deserves a round of applause , can u imagine how much work they done to do that statue, for me its insane. Congratulations and keep going !!! :))
Wow, this is truly and utterly magnificent. This is the kind of stuff I want to be able to make once I finish with University.
5:23 makes me happy
That looks horrifying.
Looks like Goro from the first MK movie.
LOL
Gummash Hellscream
All it needs is a filet of drool coming out.
the end music was just so amazing with the reveal...i loved it so much i wish i could do stuff like this you can see the pride in his eyes i swear
So much detail...these artists are really fantastic at what they do.
5:23 Grandpa Grommash.
LMFAO
already watch the movie...totally worth it
yeah totally worth it. Waiting for the next part.
where u see this...give me link
The movie theater
Wow. What talent and vision. Thanks for sharing, Blizzard!
I've never seen anything like this, it's very perfect, amazing! with a lot of reality, loved it.
Can these guys paint my Warhammer figurines?
3:03 I always knew Grommash didn't have any balls.
Only in the alternative timeline though, that's why he haven't gotten Garrosh
***** :O
***** Grommash' wife is dead
This belongs in a museum. These guys are true artists.
I've never seen anything like this, it's very perfect, amazing! with a lot of fight, loved it.
If only so much time, effort, pride, and attention to detail went into the game itself o.O
lady Sylvanas would be cool if they made her i think but maybe next time or never who knows.
***** both have the same wardrobe -_-
too many fan boys would try go up when no1's looking and hump it. They already got a nova and kerrigen for you ppl to drool over..
lady sylvanas, the boobs gonna be epic, i mean big boobs.
draizer2 ewww rotten undead dark ranger boobs...
Dusan Elez Cept Sylvanas has sweet Valkyr booty now!
Could not be more epic than that ! Thank you Blizz !!!! ❤️
Vanilla Vet here, when I log into the game, I wonder how all this neat stuff is made! Thank you for the documentary! I have 2 sons that really want to 3d model, one starts college in January for it! Wish us luck! Glad to see how this stuff is made for my game!..:) Holy priest, Goblin hunter and a few other toons! for the horde!!
I have to say it. 5:13 Grommash got a butt.
8/10 would lick it
and get clay dust in your mouth.
The butt is a part of a person's body.You should define that with the adjectives ''big'' or ''small''.
does he twerk?
Explayer Just.. go.
'Alliance' Studio creates Grommash Hellscream? THE HELLSCREAMS ARE HUMANS? :O
its the name of the studio nothing includes wow in it XD
Well Thrall was raised by humans, I dunno if that means anything though haha
the whole orc races is humans in orcs suits and humans are orcs in human suits...
Secretly we alliance are all orcs put under a very different spell.
***** DUH DUH DUHHHH!
Grommash looks so weird without his teeth
i think everybody looks weird without their teeth
Eidorian Sekken Not your grandma... -3- Less pain whens shes on here knees if you know what I'm sayin'
2:48 who welded that? F-
ha, was thinking the same. But I think the statue isnt that heavy, so it doesnt matter that much
lmfao, running stick rod on AC
Helen Keller
amen disgusting welding
some amazing work from these guys.
Got goosebumps....killer work!
this is amazing!! I want one for my room ._.
3:23 That tall statue behind them freaked me out. O.o
That music at the end is so epic!! gives me the chills.
ammazing... simply ammazing...
Bring back flying and Heirlooms please :D
Keep both removed please!
Nick Baars Yup, very much true. I'm still crying on the internet to let them know there's still people that want to fly.
It's the internets, don't get all upset. Oh actually, do :)
I agree, bring flying back!
No flying will make the zone dead which isnt good so go play another game
Guy Random Spectacular view? u just wanna slack and get to destinations faster XD
I could watch the process ok making this for hours it's so amazing. It blows my mind how awesome WoW got in the like 5 years
i always love the cinematic animation quality and to see that in real life must have been so awesome for the people at blizz con!
Very impressive.
The only nitpick I would have on this project was that the hair looked very synthetic, too much shine. It needed to be matted down more or use real hair. Other than that... can I have him? :DDDDDDDDDD
well they dont take showers, so his hair should be pretty oily, which gives it the little shine. BOOM! lol =p
His hair is ridiculously shiny in the cinematic to be fair.
This project probably cost over a hundred thousand dollars and you don't think they used real hair? Please...
SubxZeroGamer It looks like synthetic hair to me unless they got an uncommonly shiny natural hair sample. That's the fastest tell for synthetic hair is that particular shine.Now, there might be some sort of actual reason that they used synthetic hair for it but I couldn't think of any myself.
So yeah, I don't think they used real hair because it really does not look like real hair.
I'm pretty sure you're not a wig expert. Look at how his hair is frizzy, natural hair would do that.
That moment when it zooms in on the sculpture's face at @6:22 is impressive on so many levels. That level of detail...
I love how you created this.
hella kewl brah
medivh sucked at sculpting
It wasn't medivh but someone else and he had to do italone.
+InfectionSquad I believe he compared Medivh in the movie sculpting a golem with this Grommash masterpiece.
Please film more of the making of these things. The process is fascinating. What an amazingly great artist that Asian dude is.
Awesome!!! great work guys. Mind blowing quality. you made him come to life!!!
For the horde
and i cant even make a clay house
looks absolutely amazing!
These guys are so talented! Very impressive!
thats some bad welding dude
+Ben Dover They aren't welding for a complete structure, just to support the statue.
Vendable Bow doesnt change the fact.
Vendable Bow well. they should be welding artist or not weld lol...
***** none of that change the real fact that its bad welding....
+Ben Dover It doesn't have to be good welding. The point is, the welding isn't the main part. it's just support. They spend so long on making their characters look so good for Blizzard, and all you want to do is complain about welding? You should try and create a structure that good, and care about how your welding looks at the end. Anyways, you can't even see the welding. So, don't watch the video if you're going to complain. Anyways, watching their videos makes them more famous. Tbh, smh.
I hated draenor, but this statue is sick af
Steve...this is SOOOOO beyond amazing. I knew you were bloody good at your craft but....I HAVE TO share this on my Facebook page. Just brilliant really. Well done. Cheers!
Ahhhhhh!! The talent these people have is incredible!! I'm so jealous!!! lol
Hey what happened to your awesome twitter video? lol

blizz should just stick to making movies
Who are you telling them what to do?
Srdjan Smudja your an idiot
+Bill Mayor And why is HE dumb? smh!
+Srdjan Smudja Who r u to stop him from saying what he wants to say??
+Bill Mayor I know its a bit late but. no you're an idiot :3
Those guys doing somthink amazing- I can see all this dramatic emotion in scalpture faces- that's fantastic- hats off ;)
What amazing work Steve Wang and Alliance Studio have done for films. I would be so honored to have his work in any film I would work on.
SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY :D
terrible welding
Horrendous Welding... WTF is that
Amazing piece of art.
Stunning craftsmanship
Put a banana and a KFC chicken in his hands and it will be perfect!
5:23 pause
thank me later
E n
When you stub your toe.
wow just wow this looks amazing!
These guys are crazy talented holy cow.
I cringed when I saw the welds. ew
+Ryan O You don't see those in the end so it didn't matter how ugly they were.
+Ryan O those are aluminum frames so welding them is much harder than steel.
+Ryan O Haha I did too. Very sloppy!
+drumbasher does not matter about the skeleton features when the main thing is the exterior which is the scupture. If you would put alot of effort for the welding then u waste time and money. Trust me being pragmatic and getting things done fast = makes more money than getting everything right. We are talking about taking the right short cuts and concentrating on the important stuff. Dun worry one day you will understand what i mean when you are pushed to do more client based work.
The Ismadi I'm no spring chicken sir, I've been pushed many times by customers/clients to perform a task...but I still completed it with the utmost quality and detail. Being rushed on a job is no excuse for sloppiness! Thanks for assuming you knew me.
Omg the attention to details it's just brutal
THEY MADE IT SO AWSOME
Totally and completely awesome!
Bruh the badassery of that statue goes above and beyond of doing the actual character justice 👏👏👏👏
Awesome work, guys
Love the art. Way to go Mr. Wang! ^^
absolutely amazing!

2:48 That welding though! :P
OMG..... he looks so good!
Damn that was just insane loved it !
I cant wait when the movie is ready

That looks so cool!
The details man, the details...
This stunningly realistic! It is a masterpiece! I would love to have at home this man =))
6:15 - 6:22 give me goosebumps, the attention to details is impeccable.
I have a feeling this movie is going to break an all time record worldwide.
That's a whole lot of work!
awesome work
