ALL THINGS MUST END,
all kingdoms perish,
and every day must finish in the fall of night.

My reaper and main, Sao.

I finished compiling the look a while ago—back when I first started to craft the legendary—but today Tequatl finally decided to suck me in a whirlpool, allowing me to complete the collection and craft Dusk. I already had the rest of the materials, and, thus, Twilight, my first legendary, was forged! With it, I now consider the look complete.

While the precursor crafting was a... tedious experience, I really loved the premise of the Dusk collection. It fit my reaper perfectly, and I'm glad I was able to take her on such a journey. From necromancer to reaper: it's a fitting step, no?

Also I apologize for the quality. I play on a MacBook Pro, so... yeah, haha.

UPDATE #01 . . . . . Thank you all so much for the comments or even just the votes. When I posted this earlier, I didn't really expect any of either, so it means a lot! I've changed the third dye channel of the Lawless Gloves from Shadow Abyss to Abyss, and the second dye channel of the Illustrious Footwear from Shadow Abyss to Abyss. Although the changes aren't groundbreaking, I feel that it brings out the finer details of the items more in a subtle way, so thank you to Pattou, Elessar Taralom and Garrius for pointing them out and offering suggestions!

I would have liked to use a darker version of Iron instead of Abyss for the footwear, but all the ones I previewed looked too blue to me. (Of course, I'm open to other dyes selections if there are any!) I've also played around with the red dyes for the Illustrious Footwear and found that Enameled Crimson also works well for the second channel, but I'm still thinking on it. I might update the look again to show it off once I... have enough gold to buy it, haha. For now, though, here's a small screen to show the difference: https://i.imgur.com/7BtWSJy.png. I love you, Twilight, but you left me broke!

This is my first time using the site to post stuff, so hopefully I will improve in the future. Thanks again for the feedback!

You should add some red on the boots they have so many details on, it must be seen !
I like the mix, even if it's not very original, the gloves add something really cool though !
I really like the 8th screen, she's just like "I'm the devil ? Bah, anyway I don't care !". That's really cool screens.
Gold for you ;)

Really sinister look that goes really well with the legendary greatsword, it´s always good to see people not just slapping their legy on whatever!
The armour mix is convincing, I even like the Reaper Hood here as it feels fitting to the theme
Also great use of that backpiece, it is too rarely seen!
As for dyes, the general scheme is totally okay and fits the weapon; I agree with Pattou though that there could be red on the boots as well
Overall I feel like a darker shade of red would make it look a bit more sophisticated
It´s a shame that you MacBook keeps you from making higher quality screens, because I can clearly see that you got an eye for posing and camera positioning, so it´d be so nice if the screens were better quality, but after all that is not your fault
Still overall this makes a gold for me!

The dyes could use some more work , mainly the boots and the shadow abyss part from the gauntlets. Apart from that your armor mix complements your theme flawlessly along with the appropriate weapon, and considering you use MacBook your screenshots are top notch.
Although all things must end , this Gold vote is here to stay! :)

O-oh my goodness, yes. The boots. I was planning to go back and try some dyes on it, but I totally forgot, gah. I tried the red on it once, but it kind of overwhelmed the look a bit; I wish there were more dye channels for it. Even so, I'll play around with it some more. Thank you so much for pointing it out, as well as for the lovely comment! :3

Hehe, I wanted to add more emote screens, but because you can't see the facial expressions due to the Reaper's Hood, I thought it would get repetitive. I'm glad you enjoyed it nevertheless!

Thank you so much for your comment and suggestions! I... totally forgot about playing with the dyes on the boots more. I ended up posting this at 3-4AM, so that may have impaired my judgment, haha.

I tried using a red to match the rest of the outfit on the boots once, but it ended up overwhelming the look a bit. I'll try again, though, and if it doesn't work out, I'll definitely implement darker reds instead of the ones I have now! I originally used bright reds in order to give the look some contrast, so I hadn't considered using darker shades. Hopefully I have enough dark red dyes in my arsenal for the other pieces. Profane armor is one of the hardest things to dye in this game for me, unfortunately, heh.

Thank you again for the wonderful input and feedback! :3

Hehe, yeah, I meant to play with the dyes more on the boots, but it totally slipped my mind, gah. But oooh, thank you for pointing out the gauntlets! I didn't think much of it when I was taking screens, but looking back at it now, the gloves could "pop" out more from the rest of the main pieces (chest, legs).

Thank you for the kind words and suggestions! :D

Or maybe try the grey on the boots if you feel the red is too much? ^^ Just that it isn´t that black block
I can imagine that it differs greatly from the fabric dyewise

I played around a bit with the red dyes for the footwear, but unfortunately the shades I liked are ones I'll have to buy, haha.

I also tried out some different greys and attempted a darker shade of Iron, but they were either too blue or too light, so I stuck with Abyss. ^ ^;; While it wasn't the change I would have liked, it did help break the Shadow Abyss monotony a bit! Hopefully once I have more gold, I'll be able to buy more dyes and try them out.

Thank you so much for your input as always! It's helped a lot. :D

The shoulders and chest play together remarkably well for being highly different aesthetics! I don't know if I can get behind the choice of pants though, she seems very top heavy due to minimal pants. Interesting combo for sure.

I love simple yet powerful stories like yours. I feel the hood is a little off for this look though. Maybe a hoodless screen would be great too! still, a gold from me =)
