SanguinaryAxiom

I think a sizzling sound. Or maybe like blasters firing in Star Wars. Aethergold is a gas in its natural state, so maybe the sound superheated gas makes when it contacts atmospheric... well... air.

Belicose Battle Bovines?

Sorry for quoting myself (narcissistic of me), but paraphrasing this wall of text would be too much. I still have a nagging feeling this is the likely outcome. Bear in mind I have no insider knowledge or experience with these matters, just a hunch. Maybe Tyrion will be released, but how likely is it that they will release 2 God Tier units for 1 army at once? Believe me, I would love to see him, but I'm just not sure. Apologies for hitting you with another wall of text. So speaks SanguinaryAxiom, predictor of nothing 😁

Something pearlescent to represent light refracting from their armor for the plate. Some green/blue metallic for the scales. Light blue for the cloth. I am stumped on the robes though. White, maybe? On another note. I think this has probably been mentioned before, but... What we have seen thus far is basic infantry, cavalry, archers and the Light of Eltharion. These are the generic, non-elemental models. Then come the stone mage, hammerers and the battle bovines. Mountain. Do you think that the rest of the elements will follow the same pattern? That being one Special unit (hammerers), one hero (mage) and one big/special model (battle cows)? So you fill your battleline troops with the generics, and then spice it up with an elemental unit or two. This way, we can still see one more elemental aspect released (that's 3 warscrolls, not unreasonable), maybe more. Teclis is an exception, as he has mastered (and therefore encompases) all the elements. He will be the only God tier release (Tyrion will just steal some of his spotlight). I like the elegance of it. This way we could be getting a min. of 3 releases and a max. of 9. Just wanted to chip in on the speculation.

Yeah, these could work. I believe a "mother of pearl" effect is the closest we can get to a prismatic/refracted light effect. Unless we sprinkle the minis with sparkle dust 🤣

Do you think these would mix well with white? I was thinking something like this, only more subdued:

Hello. Long time lurker, first time poster. I was trying to think of the best way to representing the color vibrancy of the faction. I was thinking some kaleidoscopic effect, where light is refracted over their armor. But this would be difficult to achieve on a mini. Do you guys think mother of pearl would look cool on these guys? It's the closest I could find to this effect.
