Gladiator Armor Concept

[AzureOne 2]

Disclaimer: Screenshot included solely for reference, and I do NOT claim any ownership of the image.  

So, I was wondering if this is possible.  To create a SAM-compatible armor mod that supports the many styles of the Roman Gladiators (think of the Spartacus series).  A few thoughts I had on how to go about this:

- the harnesses can be different styles (i.e. bulldog, X, etc.), or incorporate all of them and make each style of harness and respective material individually craftable.  

- arm, leg, and head equipment pieces can be left as they are, if so desired

- the loincloth could be traditional brief-like or along the lines of the Forsworn Loincloth Refit and Barbarian Loincloths (who doesn't like freeballin).  As a personal touch, methinks in the case of loincloths that they be just enough to cover the genitals, showing the v-taper and the legs.  

- themed material usage w/ appropriate material requirements (leather, glass, ebony, dragonscale, etc.)

- crafting perk requirements (seems odd to make a dragonplate gladiator set with a low level in Smithing)

Sadly, I have neither the coding skill nor the artistic talent to really put this into realization (I wish I did), but I can conceptualize.  What do you guys think?  Would it be doable?

It would be great if someone could convert this armor to sam, the armor looks fantastic!

I did this months ago, and the quality of the fit is arguable because I don't really care about minor clipping on my end (laziness). I don't feel like doing a proper upload at the moment either. So here you go:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7dGPzUDGYmISEVRUlhueEFkXzQ/view?usp=sharing

credits go to Dizona for making the armor, and by extension in their credits, DAZ3D for the textures. Vector for SAM naturally.

Works great! Thanks for your effort!

It was a pretty quick refit since it's pretty revealing, and there isn't much clipping in the mesh. I also refit dizona's "first armor" and "heavy barbarian" if anyone has interest in those.

[Cephire 92]

I'm interested to have them. There's not enough SAM stuffs out there

These are offered as is. Same permissions as with the centurion: dizona, daz3d, and vector. Anyone can do a proper upload of these if they would like, I don't care. Improve upon it, whatever. Just give credit where it's due. That's all.

Thanks a lot!!!!

 

Testing DB First Armor I've noticed that Bracers aren't show once equipped and I have a little bit clipping in the torso at Samson 100 so I've fixed them, Here there are the fixes;

Fix for bracers only:

Fix for bracers and torso (if you get clipping like me):

Woops. Yeah I noticed those on my own side and fixed them, but I hadn't merged those fixes into the package I uploaded. Thanks.

Sorry for noob question and necro, but I gotta ask: what armor does this mod replace?

It's a standalone armor, doesn't replace anything. If you're having trouble finding it, use AddItemMenu to get it.

I took a look, btw. If you don't want to cheat, you can craft the armor at a forge with the Dwarven Smithing perk, or you can find a version with unique enchantments in a chest inside Japhet's Folly Towers.

Damn that armor looks insane thanks a lot. Its a shame it won't fit my character hahahah, many clipping... i think that's because i tried to port to SE.

 

Edit: Resaving the tri files using outfit studio restored the refit.
