I just wonder what they are going to do to Orc and Redguard, because those had that treatment already done years ago.

They might add the pre-change Orc and Redguard versions? Like an 'Ancestral' throwback to a once-used but since then replaced impractical earlier style. I wouldn't mind that since the old models were fine objectively speaking, just not for what they were - armor for 2 of the most militaristic martial cultures - so if the style makes an appearance in some other context, I'd be fine with seeing those armours again!

I'd love to see an updated version of the Light redguard. It looked great on males and females.

One can only hope. I miss the old redguard style dearly...

I think all it is is the 4th tier of all the original motifs. It’s been missing. Master lighting looks exactly the same as that altmer staff.

I saw some people were having trouble seeing the image, so I've got a new image type here. Hopefully this one will be visible for those people:

parts of this look really nice.

I wonder if the cartoony kind of impression is a result of bad lighting or shaders it does kinda give a more cartoonish vibe but the original wasn't winning any praise from me at least you'd think the high elves would be more stylized than the original look.

What really needs an over haul queen Ayrenns armor she needs something more regal and less like a 5 year old high on sour patch kids colored it.

5th tier you mean. There's already 4 tiers of each base motif.

I'm personally excited to see all of the weapons of each motif more so than the armor. Can't wait to use some of them.

Given the slightly grainy, blurred quality of that screenshot, I think you're right. It looks like an issue with lighting and shaders, or someones computer not rendering them properly, vs actual cartoonishness.
