Troll Armor & Caster upgrades (+variation)

Creative process:

Spoiler

The pack is inspired by a set of icons by @A.R. from this post, and also thanks to @Kyrbi0 for searching for them!

For this one I decided to add a brigher colorful element, that hints at Troll banners, and used plain uncolored bones to underline the lowest tier of the upgrade via its visual simplicity.

Adept

Here I looked up for the OG glows on some armor/caster upgrades (like Thorium spear, Shaman claws, Spiritwalker axe) and added that blueish haze. As for the beads, they look like a more "advanced" decoration, which is also capable of hanging something on itself, so this allowed me to put a little symbol on them.

Master

Well, here's the same story with glows. I also followed A.R.'s idea about the tusks. The tusks needed to be large enough to indicate "power" and a high level of enhancement; and since they started to cover the lighter parts of the mask and somewhat interfere with the detail, I made them black, adding a clearer highlight. Black color also allows us to talk about a "serious" level of improvement. At the end I added a feather, a fairly simple detail so as not to overload the icon and not drag attention away from the tusks. The feather also allowed me to get rid of ropes/beads/ect. that can cover the red paint.

By the way, I didn't just modify his assets, I painted over them, but anyways it's his idea and the icons repeat the shapes so I desided it would be right to put him as an author

Wow, how nice, this is excellent work... you could create upgrades for troll attack weapons, so with their level 1, 2 and 3... you could also create weapon or armor upgrades for other races like the "lost ones" or for the "faceless void", since those races have almost no icons that can be used for their upgrades

Yea, I was thinking of that. Glad you like the work

Thanks, bro! I would like you to describe your impressions in more detail in your posts, otherwise it looks like you just overwhelm me with biased rating
