Randulf.7614 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 It's not quite my thing, but I bought it because I'm pretty certain I can dye it to something neat and it is a cool skin regardlessNow to finish the last collection.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d love to see it! :)I really like what they did with the base skin, how the one dye channel completely alters it’s appearance. I look forward to see this new skin!

Blocki.4931 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 It's very pretty. Jumped into our guild hall for a quick screenshot: (base dyes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VDAC.2137 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Beautiful! I must buy it — and work on finally unlocking griffon and skyscale so I can soar and enjoy the beautiful skins I’ve been collecting! :joy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keth.3495 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Isn't it gorgeous? I haven't even started the Skyscale collection yet, but it gives me something to look forward to! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Meta.3158 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Oh my goodness. This is b-e-a-utiful. Shoutout to the mad genius artist who did this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blocki.4931 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 The wing color varies in shade and color based on your viewing angle! It's quite mesmerizing to look at. Keep that in mind when you think that your dye job has a vastly different color to what it should be.It also has pretty animations! The idle fire breath animation looks like an icy breath (cannot be dyed). The engage skill also uses blue/white fire!You throw a different (glowy)~~ kind of fish~~ mushroom for that feeding animation.Beautiful animation where the Skyscale extends its wings in a stretchWill post screenshots for thpse too.Edit: Here's an album with 3 those screenshots. I dyed wings in "Rosewood" and the rest Shadow Abyss color (gives it a purple hue on the wings) and will definitely experiment some more.https://imgur.com/a/JWmuJVo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blur.3465 Posted June 11, 2019 Author Share Posted June 11, 2019 I'll probably be changing colors from time to time, as this beauty dyes so well and looks good with almost any combination!I went with the classic dragon look for now, wanting that Smaug-like feel!EDIT:How do you post thumbnail pictures here? >> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josiah.2967 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 This might be a missed opportunity. The casuals and new players don't have the mount yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeyspit.3965 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 It's soo good, kinda makes me grumble about what we got as a stock skin lol. Sorry base model, but you aint no dragon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Memoranda.9386 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 I instapurchased it. Very lovely and just what I was hoping for.Also: the skin has a unique mount/unmount animation, and the engage ability is also different from standard model.

JustTrogdor.7892 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 I was looking forward to getting a cool skin for my Skyscale but this one isn't my thing. I don't care for the wings mostly and was hoping for something meaner looking. Glad others like it though.Edit: I just read on Reddit that is has a purple/pink aura to it that can't be changed with dyes. Ugh... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeyspit.3965 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Yknow seriously, all the other skins I got for my other mounts, I still liked the base model, I just wanted different dye channels or particle effects. This skin makes me literally dislike the original Skyscale skin =(I was ultimately holding out for a Starscale Skyscale, but after looking at this fairy dragon, I don't think I can use the stock Skyscale skin anymore..../cry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashantara.8731 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Not a fan of the wing pattern, but everything else about it I love so much that I can overlook this "flaw". ;) Beautifully done, a real dragon, yay! <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel the same; was hoping for something a bit more dark and sinister; something that atcually looks like a dragon, not a butterfly I can squash with my foot :/ Guess we'll just have to wait for the next round of mount skins. I just hope we'll get some mount selection licenses for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thornwolf.9721 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 It's kinda ugly; Definitely glad it doesn't appeal to me so I don't have the desire to have it lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought two griffon skins and will buy this one even though I don’t have either of those mounts unlocked yet. I know I WILL have them, and it just bumps the priority among all the goals I’m working toward! :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naudiz.1032 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 I was trying to convince myself I don't need a new skin-- but as a sylvari mesmer I just... I just gotta...Butterfly dragon baby with nature themes??? I feel as though I've been personally targeted and I can't bring myself to be angry about it.
