I have started working on a new personal project a few months ago.
The goal is to put the Draenei isles on the Kalimdor proper, as well as update it with new storylines, updated textures, new areas and so on. There are also plans for the third isle, which is going to be completely made from scratch.
I am currently focusing on Bloodmyst (or Silvergale, as it was formerly named), which is going to be changed drastically - the blood crystal radiation is mostly vaporized and the island is healed, but it's now quite snowy because of the Cataclysm.
So... what we will be seeing here?
The draenei have reconstructed Blood Watch into a proper town, reminiscent of the ancient Draenor dwellings. Admiral Odesyus remained here and built his new base, Ithacus Hold (yep, another Odyssey reference - a lot of these around here) where the satyr village, Axxarien once stood (most of the satyrs are gone now from the entire island). The other satyr base, Nazzivian is now under control of the Shadow Council, intent on summoning a powerful legion lord. The Horde is also on the move, taking advantage of all the turmoil they have claimed Bloodcurse Isle, as well as the area where the Vector Coil once stood (a large orc fortress is now here) and now are mining the Exodar crystals that remain in the ruins. And what about Kael's blood elves? They splintered into two factions: one loyal to the Shadow Council and the other joined the Horde's expedition. Last, but not least: the naga are stirring up trouble in the ruins of Loreth'Aran again.
Teaser screenshots included, but the map is still heavily WIP - lots of doodads need to be placed, empty spaces need to be filled, water isn't present, ground effects aren't changed and so on, you have been warned.
