This is my take on how I like Carapace armor. Trying to retain some 'flavor' of Human culture mixed in with Carapace Armor (which really is some of the best armor art in the game IMO). Mainly I was attempting to color with the Ascalonian weapon sets, which is all I use with this toon.

Suggestions and comments are very appreciated. Thanks!

I think the look is quite cool! The only piece that doesnt work for me are the gloves. They are just a completely different kind of armor, but else i really like it!
I think you could also improve with the dyes. I know you want to match the ascalonian weapons, but the colour-scheme could use some highlights. Id suggest adding some blueish tone to match the night-appearence of the weapons? :)
Anyway i like the look and your screenshots are VERY cool!!! :D

Works really well with the sword! I agree with Hylek - something as bit more strappy for the gloes would really tie in with the boots, and the detail on the shirt.

Thanks for the input! My thoughts on adding the gloves rotated around the look of full plate coverage, and 2 color slots. I'll look around at options and maybe post a second version eventually. It's too bad they don't include a day/nght option for armor :) I could make the gold glow at night! Anet, are you reading this....? Please? Pretty please?

On the other hand, if they did that, GW2 would at night would become the world of TRON. LOL.
