I've been inspired by the Deathwing concept artwork in the art book from Cataclysm CE. I decided to make his armour more metallic looking, keeping the previous purple for exposed scales that are facing the image's environmental lighting (left side). The armour will remain dark/black around Deathwing's inner fire and in the shadows.

the metal plates aren't just armour, they're what physically holds him together. the corruption from the demon soul caused his body to literally start coming apart, so he had goblins weld him into a metal shell of adamentium (really strong resilient magical metal) to hold him together.
Then after he was defeated by the other aspects (read the novel "day of the dragon" if you're interested in the details) his armour was damaged, weakening him (to the point where most thought he was dead), so he had members of the twilight hammer cult forge him new plates made of elementium (even stronger magical metal). they're shown putting the finishing touches on this new armour in the cataclysm cinematic.
