A brilliant mix of Magitech and Asuran T3 Medium armor worthy of a genius inventor!

I wasn't a huge fan of the Magitech trench-coat on her. Normally the Magitech on females has the cool effect of keeping the "exhaust vents" on the back. For my Asura however, they show too small and are hard to see. I think the dye scheme is in keeping with a earthy metal theme and the blue tech accents well.

Having no backpiece with this setup can leave the back looking very plain. Fortunately, this is rarely an issue as an Engineer. That said, there are a number of options you can go with as far as backpieces go. I went with the Tempered Spinal Blades for their color and glow.

I hope you all enjoy the look as much as I do!

You can use an alternate version using Carapace Leggings as well. Everything else is the same except the legs and dye channels.

Dye 1 - Antique Gold
Dye 2 - Sea Ice
Dye 3 - Midnight Fire

Never been a big fan of the Spinal Blades, it's so lore unfriendly. And I think for that exact reason it drags down your, very nice, themed look!

I actually do think the Spinal Blades work. Your dye choices are also very nice.

Thanks for the kind words. Yeah, everyone is going to have their own preferences. I try to have unique looks that hopefully folks will enjoy and in turn make them their own.

I normally agree about the spinal blades. They're not my favorite either however I'm often confronted with a lack of visually appealing AND thematic back pieces.

Ideally, I'd like some sort of "battery/power pack" for her. Perhaps the Blue Spinal Blades would work nicely as well. Again thanks for the kind words!

Hello there, sir. I like this look and I am preparing to start making commissions, and I would like to prepare pictures of non-humanoid races to show how well I can manage non-human proportions/looks. However I do not have an Asuran character on my account and so, with your permission, I would like to recreate yours (though I would like to leave out those spinal blades if it does not bother you that much). Showcase of my style can be seen here http://gw2style.com/look.php?id=5366 and here http://gw2style.com/look.php?id=3299 (last pictures). Please respond ASAP so I could either start my work or search for another bad-ass Asura. Commission would be free of charge, of course, though if you would be pleased with the result I will not turn down any tips. :)

Hey there Raja, I am glad you like the look. Thank you for asking and for showing interest! I have no issue with it as I imagine you're building a "portfolio" of sorts to springboard a commissioning service.

I generally design the looks out of passion for the characters and I hope people find some inspiration in them to create something of their own. I quite like your art and I have no issue with you turning ZĂȘnna into a new creation. That said, I would greatly appreciate some form of acknowledgement but I certainly don't need anything over the top.

Best of luck.

Glad you like it! And there is never too late for anything ;) as long as you do not get disillusioned by first attempts (sometimes even a 2 month break is enough for me to curse my clumsy hands) you might pick it up again in some time. All it takes is practice.
