I got a migraine and now there's another Umbrae VFX recolor mod mostly done. This one's been half-done for ages but I wanted to redo it from scratch since I've got more interesting color schemes now.
The Phantom Guillotine Umbrae weapon, with red VFX accented by pink. The Phantom Guillotine Umbrae weapon, with teal VFX accented by yellow. The Phantom Guillotine Umbrae weapon, with pink VFX accented by blue. The Phantom Guillotine Umbrae weapon, with white VFX accented by cyan.

This might be some of my favorite recolors I've done so far. I'm redoing the SGE Umbrae because of how much I love these

Phantom Star Globe v.1.1 is now available for free on my Ko-Fi shop!

Oh and since it apparently needs to be said: FUCK GenAI. I don't use it and will never use it in anything I create. Not the mods themselves, not the descriptions, not the graphics I make for them. Nothing.

God forbid a bitch enjoys the act of creativity in its own right 🙄

Since y'all liked the SGE Draw & Sheathe VFX mod, I made one for AST!

Choose from 8 different colors or remove the VFX entirely! Since there are no vanilla VFX when AST sheathes their weapon, those are still absent and not a bug.

Black background split into 2 diagonal halves with a close up of OP's character with the Phantom Star Globe drawn. In the top right half, green sparkles trail after their hand. In the bottom left half, orange sparkles trail after their hand. Text added reads: "Draw & Sheathe for AST by Cutest Arsonist, v.1.0"

Uh wow, y'all seem to like this one! If there's any specific colors y'all wanna see, lemme know! I'll see if I can't crack the nut of splitting the draw & sheathe parts for a 2.0 too

Just released: Draw & Sheathe for SGE VFX mod

Features 9 colors for draw/sheathe at the moment, and considering adding more/separating the draw & sheathe colors for a mix-and-match option. Lemme know if that's something you'd want to see.

Quick Caladbolg Anemos VFX recolor for a friend. Made the pinkish red more of a blood red, and changed the blueish purple to white.

Who knows, maybe bsky won't eat this image. Point is I added a class change + glam plate VFX to the golden teleport mod. v.2.0 is on my ko-fi now: ko-fi.com/s/14dcdf8b7e
A graphic showing Cutest Arsonist's female hrothgar posing in front of a gold background with a line of purple across the bottom. Two circular graphics show the start of the gold teleport VFX, and the large gold laser at the end of the mod. The text in the bottom left corner says "Golden Teleport by Cutest Arsonist" and the bottom right corner says it's version 2.0. In the top left, in cursive font, says "Includes Matching Class Swap"

Wings of Ruin Recolored v.2.0.2 is out now! Changed the mod from using textures to load colors to using materials and cut the file size by roughly 60MB, with only a small color change as a result (see image)

You can get v.2.0.2 on my Ko-Fi now ko-fi.com/s/b33feebedb
A side by side showing the red Wings of Ruin Recolored mod versions 2.0.1 and 2.0.2. Everything is identical except the middle strip of the wings, instead of being tinted a pale red that doesn't match the longer feather, are now solid, pale red feathers to match the rest of the wing color.
