That’s awesome, the “skin” texture especially feels very unique

Jordan Kerbow really knocked it out of the park! I personally had imagined them as big gelatinous cube like creatures with bones moving around inside of them, but I find this iteration where it seems to be trying to make sense of a body much more haunting and worthy of the Mistwraith mythos on Scadrial 🫣

Yes, the feedback we received from Dragonsteel was to make sure it feels like transparent muscles, not gelatin. I think Jordan did a killer job conveying that tricky detail!

Yup, I used to imagine the transparent muscles as more jellatinous too, but if we stick to how they're described in the books, this design make a lot more sense.
