Armour and helmets
Establish the silhouette and primary visual language before smaller layers compete for attention.
SUPPORTED COSMETIC WORKFLOWS
Aether Exile groups supported cosmetic choices by the visual job they perform. Start with free file-based experimentation through AetherMTX, or use AetherShift when live control, compact browsing and saved looks are worth the premium workflow.

Silhouette, atmosphere, focal point, movement and transition should support one idea. The strongest workflow is the one that lets you test those layers at the pace you actually need.
CATEGORY MAP
Treat every category as part of one hierarchy. Begin with silhouette, then add presence and motion only when they strengthen the same visual direction.
Establish the silhouette and primary visual language before smaller layers compete for attention.
Use wings, cloaks and other supported back-slot choices to control width, height and motion.
Build the atmosphere around the character with a clear hierarchy instead of stacking equal-intensity signals.
Coordinate the strongest moving focal point with the wider palette and silhouette.
Carry the visual idea through motion without allowing continuity effects to overpower the character.
Extend the look into transition moments while keeping the core character identity coherent.
CHOOSE THE LOOP
Both products help assemble supported cosmetic combinations. The difference is how much interruption you accept between an idea, a result and the next change.
Browse, select, apply through the traditional file path and return to review the result.
Use the full library or compact controls, discover combinations and preserve saved looks with less interruption.
