The skirt should be made of maile not clothy stuff. The hip armour serves little purpose savor your legs getting shopped off at the hips. The remaining protection comes from the maile skirt which they are missing

Also as stated, the chest plate is squished, bring it down just past the Sternum.

kudos on your implementation of the Cah skins while still making it looks realistic (as there is no Cah style hip armour and the Haldir one is very cartoony looking in comparison)

Overall a few tweaks, but it looks very good

...past the scrotum?

[Eldarion]

I think he means solar plexus, but I'm not sure...

Near-useless bit of trivia: the Galadhrim's skirts are not made of mail (that is, chain mail or scale mail), but of thousands of leather scales in every shade from gold through red. Under that is another skirt made of black cloth set with thousands of tiny interlocking scales, of different shapes, which appear to be made of some sort of gold-tinged laquer.

That's only if you want to be really obsessive with the details, of course .

It's still considered a maile skirt

Haha, I meant sternum I'm tired... It's late... Too many energy drinks...

And this.

The best reference is the design galleries on the first Two Towers Extended Edition Appendix DVD, though.

[{IRS}Athos]

Wow...

I do object to him having swords all over his armor, though.

[drogoth232]

Yeah other wise he look sawsome!

[Lauri]

he looks very impractial..

[Neth]

Well I think that he is absolutely amazing work
The sword is particularly awesome and the armour is super cool
Great work Sindarin

[Sindarin]

we havn't notice ... and the screen is not so clear but he have a "tengwar phrase" written on his sword..



And yes ... we have other blades on his armor..

[Eldarion]

If he doesn't impale himself, he'll get hopelessly entangled when he tries to take a walk in the woods - I'm not a fan of the blades on the shoulders, and even less of those on the arms.

[CIL]

I despise the blades, to be honest. I also object to him having a bow. The Noldor elite used swords or, in Gil-Galad's case, a spear. Everything else is fine, though.

[Sindarin]

Feanor in heavy armor...



Is only a concept..
In final version i will delete the bow...
also for the other version.

[Kwen]

I really don't like the idea of those blades... Maybe if you just had the shoulder ones without the arm ones it would be okay.

[Allathar]

Blades are overkill, y. Other than that it's good looking
