This set for some reason always reminds me of the Mandoshawan aliens from the Fifth Element:
I would have said hedgehog.

During the Spellbinder leveling I managed to get almost complete good-looking illusion (I think I saw it in this topic earlier, hm 
). Made the medal invisible and two illusions for shoulders and boots.

All great but I like your take on Hedge the most. Yours is less metalic and more organic than mine.
Also it’s a shame for the 1st illusion that the light is coming from the left but you’d like it from the right to reveal the shield.
The 3rd place for me is a tie between Aether BH DK and Aether AAR Spellbinder.

This faction helmet suits better the deathmark set than original set helmet; though there is no gloves to fit this colour palette.

Just a reminder of The Great Wolf with a bone twist. Bony boots would be perfect.
I’ve lowered the color temperature because the AoM lightning is too yellow.
Here’s the original illusion.

Not sure of the shield used, but the shoulders are a perfect fit.

How do people get these plain black backgrounds and good lighting?
[update] For doing super close and cool shots while in-game (I mean the Main Campaign not the Main Menu) use GrimCam (with Grim Internals)!
For hiding background and zoom in Main Menu:
For Vanilla/AoM menus with different lightnings and settings
Here are menus sorted from the coldest to the hottest colors:
- Vanilla (3 points)
- AoM (2 points)
- FG (1 point)
Here are menus sorted from the lightest to the darkest
- AoM (3 points)
- FG (2 points)
- Vanilla (1 point)
AoM is the winner here with 5 points and the best compromise between color temperature and brightness.
Also the best background in my opinion if you decide not to hide it.
My current algorithm is:
- make an illusion
- copy different options.txt with setting for best screenshots
- use a chosen menu, hide it and zoom the character
- set the character in a preferred rotation
- let the character move and mash the Steam’s screenshot button
- choose the best screenshot (matters especially if illusion has auras and lightnings)
- (new Instagram tricks) adjust the picture with https://www4.lunapic.com/editor/
- adjust -> color temperature -> cold to max
- adjust -> adjust light levels -> highlights raised a bit
Sometimes I also swap background with the forum color with https://www.remove.bg/upload
It’s not feasible if an illusion has auras or lots of spiky elements.
Here’s Hedge upgrade after the lunapic procedure mentioned above which changes the lightning to the morning one
