Varied Guard Armor Whiterun Steel Cuirass inspired replacer

[Deleted168259723User]

I tried. Some years ago with outfit studio.

Had no sucess propably because i am not skilled enough with the tools.

Tried again and messed up propably because i dont know what i am doing. The steps.

 

Ever seen the mod Varied Guard Armor ?

These mashup models are also used in Requiem.

 

Specifically the Whiterun Steel Cuirass that is worn over top of the main Guard Armor.

So what i wanted to do is use the Cuirass part of the mod in order to add it on top of all Guard Armor. All holds of Skyrim same models.

Then the goal would be to replace the Fur Boots and Gauntlets with Nordic Cuffed Boots and Steel Nordic Gauntlets as well as the helmets with the regular Steel helmet. That one's easy i can do that.

 

Eventually some Guards would be left without the Steel Cuirass for variation ''Patrols or small Town Patrols''

On some rare occasion there would be a random Guard with the Horned Steel Helmet version 2Handed wielders in particular with a model from which the Horns would be removed acting as a Shock troop variant.

 

The goal was also to exclude possible other mashup items such as random leather on top or random pouches and horns because they would look average anyway. Less is better philosophy.

 

I believe this would be the best revival for Guard Armor staying in line with the Concept Art.

 

Of course in terms of Textures of the parts i find Amidianborn/ Frankly HD/ Shields of the Holds and Pfusher's Cubemaps the best option.

 

So. If anyone knows what he's doing and wants to experiment i hope the idea helps. As for myself i still got trouble understanding what i am doing so i dont know if i get anywhere.
