Heyho guys, im back :D

After i had some trouble with my laptop for quite a while, i can finally post my stuff again!

This is the heal-gear of my druid. I made this style when the emberbay skins came out.
Its supposed to be pretty much the essential druid-style, close to nature.
I thought of it being some sort of wild fairy, kinda djinn-like, wandering some wastelands and watching over the spare life in those areas. I tried so resemble the native american style a bit, with the staff being the obvious choice, as some sort of totemic relic. The mask could be wooden, as the rest of the armor.
For the colours i tried to match the brown of the staff abit, but i had to use many dyes to fit all the different textures i used. Then added some blue highlights to match the wings and some beige for the fabric.

Im pretty out of practice when it comes to screens xD
I hope you still enjoy my selection :S
As always, the screens are not edited (except some cropping). All effects come from the druid glyphs!!!

Have a nice day and leave some thoughts, cya next time o/

That is a nice look, great screens- especially when you used glyphs. I am not a fan of the wing-back, because in my opinion it does not fit the desert. But you did make it up with a great dye-job on the Carapace Jerkin. It is a pleasure to look the screens- gold.

I really like the look, and especially the dyes, but i'm not a big fan of the epaulets.

Yay, finally an upload from you again! ^^
I really like this mix, it´s creative and unexpected, mixing some armour pieces that you usually don´t see too often in this combination
I really love the dyes the most about this look, it is such an original concept to combine with the wings
Great screens and description as always, gold! ^^

I say the same as Elessar! :D
Plus I really like how the chest and leggings fit, they seem from the same set, and it is unique with those shoulders and headdress.

Good job!

Love the armor choices for your Druid! It's a little creepy, yet graceful at the same time lol.

Yass finally!
I love this look on your druid a lot! You made some very interesting and awesome choices for example using the fairy wings in combination with the Ember Bay- skins! It's unusual but fits perfectly and matches your theme in a great way!
I really adore the colourscheme. The brown tones are very close to nature while the soft blue colour really adds up to the fairy like vibe.
Your screens are- as always- soooo damn pretty I really love the sparkly ones and especially those where you used the druid's glyphs :3 Such a great look deserves all the Gold! x3

Aw she looks lovely! :>
I really love the dyes, it's nice to see that refreshing blue beside those natural earthy dyes.
There's somthing bugging me with those gauntlets.. they don't fit 100% imo, maybe too heavy, but they don't stand out that much that I wouldn't rate this outfit any worse than gold, because all in all this looks really beautiful ^-^
And the screens are really pretty!!

It's nice to see some new stuff from you :)

Screens look amazing! Nice dye combo too. But I agree with many others, the armor combo is a bit scattered. I'm fine with the gloves actually, the shoulders throw it off a bit since they're so spiky and angular while the rest of the armor is more smooth with some curved thorny bits here and there. Still a wonderful look though =D

Thank you so much folks :D
I see what you mean with the armor-comb not fitting together 100%.
For the gloves i had the krytan ones as second choice. The bones and sleek appearence looked very nice ... though i liked the black lined pattern as how the gloves are now even better.
For the shoulders ... i thought of the brown scales to look like leafs. Tbh, i just wanted to use the new skin at that point though xD

Thanks for the kind words and feedback!

I'm really stunned by this one. It reminds me of the dried up desert, with mystical waters swirling around the body. It just contrasts so beautifully.

Thanks a lot!
The dry of the ddesert is what i had in mind with this look! And the mystical part was bound to bring back life into it, like some sort of dryad.
Glad you appreciate it :D

A very unique and stunning outfit!
I especially love the dyes used. They balance each other out nicely and pick up the nature-y earthy themes of the ranger as well as the celestial, ephemeral ones of the druid.
