Dragon Scale

It's been such a joy as of late to working on outfits again. Nowadays, whether I'm running dailies or doing quests or really doing anything in game, I'm constantly thinking about what sort of outfits I could do inspired by the region I'm in, or what sort of screenshots I could take. When I took my blog hiatus I focused so much on getting a character to cap (which I was able to do.. twice), and then gearing said characters for end game content. Even though both characters aren't tier 2 ready yet, it's been very fun having different things to work on in game, not just leveling and gearing. 

This outfit is fully based around the absolutely beautiful Draigoch cloak my friend and fellow cosmetic blogger Nathrien so kindly gifted me. 

In comparison to the cloak, I wanted everything else to be simple, or at least I tried. I got really distracted by how amazing the Doom-hunter's shoulders are and just had to include them in the outfit, and I think they really compliment the gloves and add a very warrior-like feel to the outfit as a whole. Other than that, I think I was able to keep the outfit very simple. The leggings compliment the grey in the cloak, and the chest, while intricate, isn't overwhelming. And as in typical Makaia fashion, no helmet was used. I'm a sucker for all circlets in this game.

    Despite the difficulties of integrating Draigoch cloaks due to the glow, this outfit of yours is wonderful! The colors and pieces come together in a stunning blend of ferocity and courage.

    And welcome back to the blogging community!

Bleak as Winter - Region Series Part V

Image
When I was posting on this blog on a consistent basis, the  Region Series  was my favorite series I've ever worked on. I also had two other series' on this blog,  Crafted Sets with Cosmetic Value  and  Matching A Steed , but the region series was truly my favorite. There's something so magical about taking a region, an entire region, and trying to form an outfit inspired by that region. It is truly a difficult task. Every single region is so unique and diverse, and while it may maintain the same general feel, every single village or homestead within that region each has its own flair. It's odd that I chose Wildermore as the region to bring back this series with. All in all, it is one of my least favorite regions in the game. It is beautiful, yes, but it is incredibly desolate and forlorn. Even Forochel, just as snowy and bleak, has more activity and homeliness to it than Wildermore does.  I began this outfit with the shoulders; I was oh so close ...

Winds of Frost

It has been quite sometime, two and a half months to be exact, since I last posted. There have been a lot of contributing factors as to why I haven't posted, but the main reasons why were 1. I mentally needed a break. 2. I haven't had much inspiration lately. I feel like I should only be posting outfits that are worthy of recognition, and if I kept cranking out weekly outfits, they wouldn't be the high quality that I expect from myself. In the month of December, I decided to do something I had never done before: purchase a quest pack. You might be curious why I never purchased one before, but it was mainly a money and commitment issue. With the purchase of the Quad Expansion pack, the amount of gorgeous cosmetic pieces I gain access to is immense. I am very happy with the pieces I have been able to add to my cosmetic library. As for the outfit, it was inspired by Frostbluff. Frostbluff is the home of my absolute favorite festival in-game, and I wanted to do ...
