thank you...i'm starting to think about a taylor maid approach (it is a mod i discovered some days ago walking around on the nexus taylor maid), with all accessories separated from the base mesh but that will be a lot of work and rewuires experience that i don't have... however skulls will be optional for sure, not everyone like the skulls i know and i will not be the one that puts limit to your enjoyment and entertainment.

 

i don't know the armor, i'm sorry...

just a small update, i've worked on another version of the textures for the skirt, and i give you some screenshots of an in game test i've done just to make sure that there are not deformation or other bad issues, everything is ok i think, the normal maps and the textures look good, better....less boring work and more fun for me :D...(just some clipping and a strange deformation on the skull but nothing i can not easlily fix).

i'm sorry for the bad quality of the screenshots but i've done a little mess in gimp so that's the result... however they are not so important look at the first pages shot if you want to see more particulars.

what concept do you prefer for the gloves?

the left one composed by the steel plate armor forearm piece and the stormcloack gloves or the right one composed by the plated hands and the fur forearm piece of the stormcloacks?

in each case there will be new textures, i would go with the second one to resemble the nordic theme, skyrim is cold guys.

sorry for the bad quality picture but i don't have any scanner devices

and heu.

 

U should ask to "LordofWar" ...Craftable Hawke Mage Champion Armor V0 3

 

Personally if you want my opinion to the hands and arms I would have wanted a single piece of Armor for 1 arms , right or left arm and the other empty or with a single glove..

 

something impressive over the shoulder like a skull or spades

Hello again^^! I would suggest that you add circlets to the skulls that use gemstones rather than plain gold ones. I would make the gold trim on the robe match the gild on the armor instand of the gold on the circlet. You could increase the brightness of the gold color of the circlets as well to be less dull or use a modded texture that does this already.

thank you guys for the suggestions.

@i tried to contyact lordofwar for the permissions however he can't receive message because maybe he has the mail box empty, he was very kind when i asked him permission for my previous release so there should not be problems, i will try to contact him in the next days.

 

i will make several skecthes of the two gloves during the free time, i'll post them and see what you guys like most, thank you for the asimmetry suggestion. it was really helpful

 

@natterforme kind and ready to help as always, thank you, actually the gold trim on the robe skirt is still under progress, i'm trying to add some nordic runes to it and i will clear the color to make it match with the breast plate.

 

regarding the circlets i've sent a message to the author of this mod: better circlets to ask him permission to use his textures that i think would give a better look to the circlets making them more "regal".

some new updates for you:

 

in these days free time from the hard study i've worked on textures to search a good color pattern that could fit the theme and look good in game, i opted for a grey look with little insterts of gold, like if the textile was made also of golden strings, i've also added objects like the hook and the scabbards to join the objects together with the armor....it still does not fit my intentions, will continue to work on it.

soon updates on the gloves work.

well this is what happen when i restart the project from the begin, the original concept is gone, i did not like the in game result of the noble look so i decided for an insolite practical look, i was inspired by the armors of the greyjoy's of the game of thrones saga and i decided to give the armor a more "aerodinamic" and comfortable look but yet regal and noble with the engravings on the armor plate.

this way the armor fits perfectly with the backstory i've prepared for her :D.

tell me if you like it, there are still a lot of things to do before the release like for example adding some other accessories and the esp file.

sorry for those clipping issue, you won't see them in-game as this image is only a copy/paste collage in nifskope to show you people the complete set.
