In the post you show us the tier 2 set for the Paladin. How long did you work on it until it finally matched your vision completely, and what was the most difficult part of creating it?

In total we spent several hundred hours on the tier 2 set for the Paladin. The mighty shoulders with the big books and the daggers, which we created out of brass, were especially hard to do. Additionally the shoulders have a substructure to make them lead out as far as they do for a Human Paladin in the game. It was very important for me, that at the end the proportions would be really exact. Also the belt had a few pitfalls, one might not see right away. More precisely, you don't see - like in the game - anything where you could open the belt.

What other objects from WoW did you forge besides the Paladin armor or what has inspired you?

Besides the Paladin armor I can easily think of Doomhammer's armor, that warchief Thrall is wearing. Then there's also the Hypnotic Blade, a few Troll shoulders made of wood, and last but not least the deliberately awful armor big enough for two men, which we did because we wanted a twin-headed ogre for a few pictures. But generally a lot of stuff that I put into the design of armors comes from what people have seen in movies, from what you find around video games, and probably also from what you played with as a child. And for me Warcraft definitely also contributed to everything.
