Hi all. Long-time lurker here, and definite newbie to taking interesting and inventive screenshots. Be gentle!

I decided to make a Canthan warrior. I wanted a samurai feel, but I wanted something different than the heavily armored versions. I used Braham's chestpiece to represent bandages, which worked out well. The problem, as should be plain to see, is the clipping on the waist.

Any help that could be given to find:
1) A non-clipping, thematic leg armor
2) A better die for the leathery parts of the leggings

I suggest using Houndskin mantle for shoulder idk and grasping dead for leggings

Very original use of the chest-piece!
Even though it clips a bit, i wouldnt change the leg-piece! Its the closest you can get to such a samurai theme.
Your screens are good! You could try playing around with the camera options in the settings to zoom in further and create different angles of view ... that would make the screenshots a bit more interesting :)
As for colours: Charred and Cinders have to be my favorite colours, due to their omnipotential usage and their dye-behaviour (they enhance the texture of the dyed part a lot!). A cheaper option would be Antique Bronze.
Though these colours are more greyish, i still like to use them on several different materials.
In the end i dont really feel like you need different colours though, the outfit looks good as it is.
Maybe you could use the Mask of the Wanderer or the Mask of the Silent to create the impression of scars on his face. It could round up the "injured" theme a bit.

Overall there are still several areas you could improve on (though its just minor flaws), but i really like the originality to use this chest-piece as bandages, and id like to give you Gold for this creativity :D

Thanks for the great feedback, Hylek. I'd never considered the Mask of the Wanderer, but that may work as well. I also think I like Charred dye a lot more now. I'd always overlooked it because when sorted by hue it falls in red.
