I see some critique is going on, and I'm not going to bother reading it all. We can't cater to every little detail and every fans opinion. Please just be happy with what you have and move on. There is much more work to be done, so if you have an opinion, try voicing it BEFORE we model it. There is no reason to bring this forum back up and make requests on it. Don't be so entitled.
aretea: I never said it should be redone from scratch. I'm not that kind of guy that comes into a project and pretends other to redo their work just because he doesn't like it.
I was just expressing a personal opinion, also basing on others' comments.
Dragomir: What I was trying to say it's that you cannot answer to a comment with "what would you do instead" in this case, mostly because this armor was not in the original game.
So it's a "non-canon", we might say, and there's not even the need to have it in game.
If the armor was in game, you would be right to ask it, since the armor would be absolutely needed...in this case, I do not see the right in it. Just this.
So yeah, I just wouldn't do it: that's my answer, since I was asked.
You are right to say that the original armor was generic, but probably that's just the original engine limitation back in the days.
Still, you did a good job in re-making it in your other concept, I would go for that. But not with this dunmer one: as I said, it looks like a recolored redoran, and not unique.
It all comes to this.
I'm not sure where I was "vague", I did try to be as clear as possible. Constructive criticism it is: I'd go just for the other concept, the imperial-like, not this one (repeating so it's even more clear).
I do not see the reason to be this harsh on people expressing their opinion (in a polite way and without pretending anything), like Squally just did.
Chill a bit.
EDIT: @Squally: I do not feel entitled to ask for redoing this armor and I never asked for such (if you'd read instead of pretending that would help), but you are not entitled to behave with others this way, cause good manners are not an option: both for people commenting and the team.
I'm a bit harsh when people criticize stuff that's been finalized ages ago... Over and over again :P If you don't like the native ebony you're free to mod it out, should be really easy to replace it with the Imperial one... But I still think it would look really stupid on the leader of a faction that is extreme traditionalist and pretty much a rival to the Empire.

Man, if you think THAT was harsh/rude, you're in the wrong place. I just stated what everyone else if thinking. I even said please! Don't victimize yourself.
That's actually a relatively easy adjustment in 3ds Max, or Blender, but that would all be on you. I don't think this armor is going to be touched anymore beyond texture adjustments, same goes for basically all finished sets.
If you want to get technical, armor is already split that way in Skyrim, seeing as greaves are lower leg armor. :P
But I digress...
I think their plan for the moment is to leave everything split along the same lines as vanilla Skyrim armor, i.e. helms, armor, hands, and feet. Specifically due to the clipping issues.

There is some misunderstanding.

First of all i want to say that it is not a critique,just a wish. I think the belt should be a little bit higher .

Will all armors be split in cuirass and greaves? I don't see how this armor can be split without making it clip with other cuirass and greaves...

Ok, this question was bothering me for a while, since I see so many beautiful armors on this forum but none seems can be split easily.
This is one of the best of your works. I will wear with with great pleasure.
