LE Daedric or better stats... on non skimpy decent looking armor for fema

[Dragonwindspirit]

What I am looking for is a mod that will add a cpl decent sets of heavy and light armors with Daedric (for light) or slightly better stats (for heavy), without those silly massive (ugly,) shoulder formations, while at the same time looking good on a female character, that doesn't leave them unclothed. I.E. Skimpy is NOT what I am looking for, however, attractive and functional IS.

My point of consideration is armor types similar in look to the Eisen armor set .

The armor would need to be smithable, upgradeable and have a few more color options than black and white.

My reasoning (lore based). Armor is functional. It is designed to cover and protect. Having my midrif and tits bare doesn't protect my midrift or my tits... it just leaves me open to being gutted or having my lady bits sliced off and served as someones dinner. I'd like to see armor that covers, looks good, is shapely and at the same time doesn't have huge (to me rediculous and ugly) shoulder pads or rediculous appendages poking out of it at all sorts of weird angles. The Eisen Armor is nice for this for the most part but doesn't have the stats i'd like to see in an upper-mid game/End game armor type.

If anybody has, knows or would like to work on an armor that fits this criteria I would be happy to know about it, and test it.

p.s. I have Hearthfire, Dawnguard and Dragonborn DLC's. Armor would need to be compatible with these.

Sounds like "Daedric mail".

Could you retexture Nightingale armor, and give it heavy armor stats?? Ebony ingots for upgrades.

To help keep any self-respecting female warrior from looking like a stripper or a Frank Frazetta pin-up, I recommend the Knights of the Nine mod. It has decent-looking heavy plate armor with much better stats than steel, though the female variant is “chesty”.

 

There is also a Less Sexual Female Armor mod that replaces the chesty vanilla female armors of various types with the male versions.

 

I also just came across Divine Aegis HD - Paladin Style Ebony Armor Rehaul mod, which looks like a shiny silver and gold retexturing of vanilla Ebony Armor.

If you don't mind steel armor, the Knight Steel Plate Armor mod retextures and replaces the vanilla steel plate armor. I think it may have an optional earlier file version with only male armor, so you could probably equip a female character with it.

 

The SPOA Silver Knight Armor mod looks like a fancier, high-def engraved and shiny version of vanilla steel plate armor. It apparently only comes in a male version, which can also be worn by females.
