    I understand they could have all been designed a little better, but to be honest Garuda Egi isn't that random that you wouldn't know which primal it's associated with. And they said they would make Egi glamours a while back which they haven't; I think that may be an indication of them having better things to do.

    I think Ifrit looks totally fine. But Titan could have been brown, like its original, since it really reminds more of Chicken MC Nuggets now. Plus I never understood why Garuda is yellowish/greenish? :v

    You really don't want a brown Titan with the current design. It would look like, well, something that a sheep has left behind. XD

    It already looks like a flying poop
    You know, I am quite lenient with Titan egi's case, since its Primal looks totally hideous.

    I think the core issue is that the egi models can't be much more detailed than a minion, which makes a true representation of Garuda (the version in the OP looks great!) technologically impossible. I personally don't dislike Garuda but I can see why people would. However, even when they add glamours one day, it's probably best not to expect too much from the complexity of the designs.

    Why it would be impossible ? Just give it Garuda's head with a proper coloring, it will be waaaay better

    Well, changing the colour wouldn't be impossible at all but the level of complexity in the full model would make my computer explode whenever a group of summoners walked by even before taking S-E's technical limitations into consideration (new PVP strategy?). A slightly more Garuda-like design would be great though and I'm sure it could be accomplished.

    What if they cut the body in two, just like the actual Ifrit and Garuda egis, but with better model ? Would it be too complex again ?

    Something like that :
