Bruceski: Aug 21, 2007; The tools of a hero mean nothing without a solid core.

Sometimes you hit a random filter that usually looks bad and it makes the shot great.

After changing my hair because I realized I'd accidentally made Auron and couldn't unsee it.

On the one hand my Dragoon now looks more rockstar than my Bard. On the other hand my Dragoon now looks more rockstar than my Bard,

All pretty lowbie gear, but I was having fun leveling leatherworking. I got some real Zardoz energy going.

That was my first glam, before I even knew the term and just wore stuff manually (not sure if ARR even had glam back then).

It�s apparently a minority opinion but I hate how excessively spikey the normal signature Dragoon armors are, especially given their twirling pear movements and such. This still has some edges to it but is much better imo while still having that plated-but-mobile Dragoon look.

I�d still rip those shoulder fins/spikes off if I could though.

Agreed. I prefer clean lines and mobility for the Dragoon. Not as wedded to the color scheme though, I think because dark blues and purples look muddy on my monitor.

I have a glam addiction. Usually I prefer drape-y stuff for Bard but I got the chest from Savage Alexander and wanted to do something with it and wound up liking the result. Goes well with incidental gold highlights on some other gear I had. Like, I didn't like that hat very much on its own but it works here.

I wasn't sure about this when putting it together, but after setting up this shot I really like how it turned out. Reminds me of Warhammer Elf aesthetic.

I haven't managed to get as wonderful a blurry background as Wrestlepig does, but I've found that just playing with the sliders to get a narrow depth of field REALLY makes the detail pop on things that are in focus. There's a lot of love put into those outfit designs, the chest I use in those shots is hiding as a generic black outfit from the Nier raids without any noticeable detail, and then you add some dye and "wow, it's leather!". The gloves in that bottom shot, you can see the pieces where it was sewn together!

Did I spend $20 last night while drunk to buy a fantasia and change my name to Misato Catsuragi just to bring this idea to fruition?

Yes, yes I did.

I just need a gold chocobo feather to get that jet black dye and make this perfect.

Is there a penguin minion anywhere in the game?

Incomplete. I still have not found a good Scythe for "Pretty Reaper"

which is funny because I almost never go with pretty glams but decided to do it with the edgy class.

Maybe the padjali war scythe (paths of the dead, just glowing white) or the fae sickle (Dohn Mehg, the 73 dungeon)? Finding just the right piece for a glam can be tough.

Goddammit, I need that scythe.
I've taken a couple cracks at it with my static, and we've made it to enrage, but the best we've managed is 15% before wipe.

Right now, my scythe glam is the Lakeland one, and unless I get your scythe, it'll probably be the scythe glam I use until relic weapons drop.

Not bad, it asks a lot. I think between the two current extremes EX1 is about rapidly parsing information and EX2 is more predictable but trickier execution. Of course, everything's predictable once you know it.

When looking for stuff that fit with the axe I picked out the glasses and earrings. Then I realized I'd stumbled into a Bayonetta look and decided to just go for it.

I was inspired to start doing some more advanced FF14 housing design. This is just the basics, but here's my afternoon's effort, including some times I accidentally picked up something I'd already placed and had to start over. I used to have lights higher but they're a pain to do.

If you're not interested in the general outfits, the Garo event still has a few glam items it can be difficult to find substitutes for if you like it. That pocket pistol, there's a paintbrush for... black mage I think, and the aiming headpiece is a butterfly pin.

Also an excuse to show off my latest look.

Felt a bit hammer-y.

"Hmm, red on the helmet makes it look like actual hair, the blue has a good contrast with the gold on the armor, and then I'll match the hands to the secondary color for some variety."
"Nice Captain Falcon glam."

Went for Blood Falcon instead. One of those glams that makes me wish I liked playing the actual job.

Nice one. Anyone playing with gpose be sure to check out your ability animations, there are some really good ones in there for dynamic shots.

I would pay actual cash money if gpose let you use animations on demand like Anamnesis does, because you can get some absolute winners that way.

Animations on demand? More than the "select action" toggle that makes your character repeat the last thing they did before you enter gpose?

This one was fun just because I pretty much had to max out the red and green on two lights to compensate for the amount of blue the spell effect was tinting things. I'm always impressed by how much detail comes out on these shots (her collar and the bow for example), it's not something I notice when setting it up.

Calling this one a happy accident. I actually quite like this random mish-mash of gear I've wound up wearing for the moment.

Given the shape of the weapons I have to ask, is that a ninja or dancer? My brother's been putting together an aiming glam where that top might be exactly what he needs.

Step 1, angle face slightly away from camera, step 2, turn eye tracking on. Optional step 3, /simper or /smile, or occasionally, /wink or /leftwink. That's really all there is to it.

It's a pain when I'm trying to freeze a /vpose or combat animation, because I have to unpause it to get the eyes to track the camera again. You can move the eyeballs while paused in the Edit Portrait menu, but not in general gposing.

I'm with you on that one. In theory it's pretty simple, in practice I'm always trying to remember which things need to be set in what order and often decide "ah screw it."
