as i mentioned earlier though the last i used this was when epic pools first got their 5th power

The first image is (I think) a Dark Servent in its basic form and colors (and with some annoying red thingies, sorry about that); you'll note he has some glowing eye stuff going on there, almost hidden by the red, he's looking off to the left.

The next three images show what Shadowmeld looks like as you activate it (please ignore the Hasten pom-poms there), while you're a shadow (I guess) and the aftereffects which last some seconds.

I think this costume 5 is wearing might have a slight blue glow-aura which you can see inside the cloud, but this should still give you some idea what SM looks like. I think the textures are different, DS being rather "spotty" while SM is more wispy - plus no radiating stuff at your feet like DS has.

What is kind of cook is that if you are wearing Incarnate radiant pieces of costume, they stay 'lit up' when you shift into Shadowmeld form. Same for your halo if you have that.

Of course, being /Regen, I'm alternating between MOG and Shadowmeld quite often when soloing AV's so you may want to be comfortable with the look of the power before taking it if that matters to you. But as a /Regen, I think the defense is far more valuable than anything you lose from the look.
