OMG 5 months!
I'm really sorry for the long silence.
I had a pretty bad encounter with a "tennis arm" which incpacipated me for a long time. It still feels bad and I'm often in pain, but by now the vibe is back and I was able to pick up my brushes again.
Since the last update

I did change quite a lot.
I didn't really like the way it had turned out - especially since I couldn't get the "temperature" across. So I repainted the metal armor parts in a kind of burnt-out metal and added the glowing lava feeling to the sections between the armor

From here it was mainly increasing the lava effects

A first posing check with the new color scheme

I also added some glow effects back onto the armor

Still needs plenty of clean-up

But I think the burning feeling is now visible

With the cloak (base color only)

I was afraid I'd had to repaint the shield too, but I think it still fits

Eye to eye

Still a long way to go, but I really like it

What do you think? Is it worth continuing?
