Avatar of Isha 4K Ariel Reskin

Reskins Ariel with an alternate look, in 4K HD. Also tweaks the colors and glows of the Sisters of Thorn and Wild Riders.

Ariel's new look is inspired by various tabletop variations, artworks and lore tidbits. I was also looking to establish more visual continuity between Ariel and the Sisters of the Thorn, given their connection to each other as well as to the Elven goddess Isha.

Video mod is necessary for proper scepter effects, the other sub-mod is optional, for lore enthusiasts who want their Ariel in green as she wears in all official depictions.

ARIEL CHANGES:
-Ariel's skin has less purple tones, is more teal/pale blue, per my tabletop inspiration.
-Her dress is a dusky orange (or richer/darker green for the sub-mod), as well as new leaf imprints towards the bottom on both versions.
-Moth wings have had their colors reworked to have more orange tones and made darker overall, her wing glow has also had its color adjusted as well as its glow intensity toned down.
-Glowing Elven script covers various parts of Ariel's body, glowing sigils representing Isha are on the top of her hands. Eye glow has been intensified.
-Staff glow has been adjusted from green to teal, per my tabletop inspiration.
-Hair is no longer dark teal, but pale blonde, reflective of how her Elven form has more golden blonde locks.
-Gem colors have been reworked to be amber, to be more in-line with how many Wood Elf gems are already portrayed in-game. Her golden girdle now has a red gem, reflective of Ariel's ancient heritage as one of the first Asrai, who were Asur colonists first, thus it has more of a High Elf look to it. Or 4th Edition Wood Elves, who had red gems, whichever is preferred!
-UI portraits have been tweaked to reflect Ariel's new colors.

UNIT CHANGES:
-Sisters of the Thorn and Wild Riders have had their original color relationship restored, with the Steeds of Isha stags glowing blue and the Steeds of Kurnous glowing green. This is also true to their tabletop versions (which had glowing swirls on their foreheads rather than their antlers, but I digress) and their own unit cards in-game.
-Steeds of Isha stags are now paler overall with dark blue fur, as per their official paint scheme of 8th Edition Wood Elves.

This reskin simply would not have been possible without the superb work of ^1Shep^8ardov so thank you kindly sir! Also Inquisitor14's mask layer for stags was used from his Beautiful Wood Elves mod, which is featured in the screenshots, so check it out!

Many thanks to Xoudad for finding Ariel's UI portrait pic for me as well and Hazard for providing the high quality screenshots!

Also included here in this mod description are the 4K versions of both of my seasonal Orion reskins, which would also not be possible without the magnificent man mentioned above:

The new Orion reskins also have redone UI portrait pics that are far more in the style of game's portrait aesthetic than the original mods.

I plan to do all my reskins in 4K, and they will be available in Warhammer 3.
