TuskandInk Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 So I think some people are aware - the History Channel has a new series about Vikings. It's amazingly shot if you haven't seen it... check it out. But I'm an armour-collector-wh*%#-extraordinaire and I cannot find a chainmail and leather mix like Leif (Foremost left) and Ragnar (Center, front). Ragnar has an amazingly simple looking cuirass with chainmail on a hard looking leather, stitched up sleeves, with one of Odin's Ravens on the front. Leif has some cool kit as well. If there is anyone with the talent, time and ability to make Ragnar or Leif's armour, I would ask that you do. http://www.history.com/s3static/video-thumbnails/AETN-History_VMS/464/663/History_Vikings_Prepare_for_War_SF_HD_still_624x352.jpg I have been using FrankDema's Wanderer set and FranklinZunge's Brigandage armors as a substitute, but as the series continues I am becoming more envious of this particular cuirass piece from the photo. Thanks for reading... (If the link becomes broken or doesn't work for some reason, I have provided the photo as an attachment.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLordGrizzly Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 That is a great show so far, I've really enjoyed it. There is this mod: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/32706 It adds some rough leather/chainmail armor, nothing exactly like the Ragnar or Leifs armor but perhaps somthing you'll like.

TuskandInk Posted March 18, 2013 Author Share Posted March 18, 2013 Yeah, I've been using the Brigandage set of armors since their release. They're good - in fact, I think they're great. But they're not exactly what I'm looking for. I really like the Iron Bandit Cuirass, but I think with some chainmail mixed in it it could be something truly gritty and rough and immerse me into the Viking Lifestyle.

Tehandyman Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/19733 There's two sets of Viking armor in this armor set plus a lot of chainmail armors. What I would suggest is try retexturing one of them to look like the armor in your picture. I might give it a shot tomorrow if I'm not too busy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlienSensei Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 One of my dads best friends actually wrote (dont know how to translate) that show and my cousin acted in the background. Hehe, but yeah, I've seen it. I'd want the armors too as they look great, and imo very realistic too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaktoastTheSandwichTopper Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 might also try brigandage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TuskandInk Posted March 24, 2013 Author Share Posted March 24, 2013 I've gone back and used the Immersive Armors Viking variants and I have used the Brigandage armors for a while (I've been using it since it came out.) But I think people are missing what I'm throwing out there. Just a Cuirass with leather and chain mail and stitched leather sleeves would be cool. Or a cuirass like this.
