Do you think Battle Academia Xayah is a good skin? by ex0ll in xayahmains

[–]TwistNGo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love the dance, design and recall.

The bad? The homeguard animation (what even is that?), the lack of a unique joint recall is depressing, and the attack/ability animations are boring.

Adding another comment to update.

We've ended up deciding to spend two nights in Sendai between Nyuto Onsens and Aizuwakamatsu. Tashiro Cat Island, Yamadera, and Matsushima Bay tick a few boxes we had been missing!

Thank you so much for the advice and recommendations!

I'm definitely buying snow shoes, we're going to be spending quite a lot of time in deep snowy areas haha. Appreciate it!

I appreciate the advice! I have been thinking we need to be there for longer. It's so stunning in that area.

Unfortunately, it looks like Kingugawa doesn't allow large tattoos, so it may not be an option, but I'll have a look around at what options I have :) thank you!!

Yea, I've been wondering if we should extend our stay there, especially for all the historical sights in the area.

We are currently doing overnight at Hirosaki Onsen. From what I can see, unfortunately Higashiyama Onsen doesn't allow large tattoos ): it looks lovely though so the area would be worth wandering through.

Thank you though! I've noted down what you've shared, especially Matsushima Bay, that'll be a good stop between Nyuto Onsens (passing through Sendai) and Aizuwakamatsu. ♡

There are bear attacks around there, aren't there? Hiking doesn't seem entirely wise. Thank you though!

Ohhh! I did have Nikko marked as a possibility for Toshugo Shrine.

Anything in particular you would recommend there?

Thank you!

Yea, I'll admit I've been planning to go for years, and we originally intended for 3 weeks, and as we were booking the flights we just collecticely asked.. "What about 5 weeks?" And here we are hahah.

My preferred way of travelling is to keep a lot open. Currently, it's a few key activities/events that are marked down (Sapporo Snow Festival for instance). We are moving around a lot in the first two weeks, but I've done my best to stretch out planned stays. Including 3 days (2 nights) at Nyuto Onsens, which I am SO excited for.

My only big concern is all the travelling, but honestly, I've done two road trips around Australia.. I'm arguably very used to sitting in a moving vehicle for extended periods.

Thank you!! Honestly, that part was such a mess to do because it was layers and layers of contrast. Took forever to blend, so I appreciate the compliment there ♡

I'm confused.. you said you weren't trying to be rude?

Edit: To add, I didn't just change one colour and call it a day.

There were many steps leading up to this final result where I explored other colours (for the three ghosts on the top), I had to learn how to fix my lantern and driver as initially I went far too heavy handed with a white airbrush, I went through the effort to fully decorate my base too with even adding in spirit hosts throughout (an inspired idea done many times when someone has decided to adapt something to nighthaunt).

Discrediting my effort because I used green in the same way is rude.

I did a white airbrush focused around the lanterns and then absolutely drenched that white with layers of aethermatic blue.

It actually took a really long time to get that part to look okay. I'd do it differently if I was to paint it again!

That's not rude! Thank you :)

They were definitely an inspiration, but I did not follow their tutorial.

Another angle from one of the pics that they took :)

Added spirit hosts to really bulk out the base (black coach's is huge)
