Good-looking armor for female characters that is not intended for a stripper?

~magic~ · 25 Nov 2014

Hi,

Whenever I go searching on LL/Nexus/whathaveyou, I find a million skimpy armors and almost never find any good looking armors that are not intended for a stripper.
I'm not complaining about this, and I'm not surprised by this result at all, especially with how many teenagers have student access to 3ds Max - To each their own.

I simply want some help finding the armors that do not fit that category.

I have a weird fetish where I want my dragonborn to look cool, and like a warrior, rather than a stripper. I'm looking for good armor mods that are intended for or fit a female character without being overly feminine. (e.g armors that have flower skirts. For some reason.)

One example of this is the Crimson Ranger Armor, a variant of which is included in Immersive Armors. Another is Eisen Platte Armor, although I had to fix the tiny arms and waist to make it look more human.

I don't care what body it is intended for. If I like it, I'll adapt it. It'll take me a whole two minutes in Blender.

Well, one that I know of is the triss armor from Witcher 2, which you can find on the nexus, or the northgirl armor as well. Good luck, I get that same urge to get some "badass" non-skimpy outfits

I thought "Sleek Steel" looked really good in game, with the blue texrture version. Comes as Standalone or Replacer.

You might get more responses from the "Where can I find...." thread:

For what is worth, the only two I like are North Girl and Yurica's Sovereign Slayer, outside Witcher stuff (kudos to CD Projekt):

Here's another that looks promising. It's True Thief Armor for male and female.

And one more. Here's EotW Dovahkiins Journeyman Armor V2.

I think this one is pretty cool:

If you're interested search "Flemeth Armor" on this thread http://www.loverslab.com/topic/10341-conversions-for-unpb-with-bbp/

I get what you are looking for but you do know that you are supposed to wear suits of armor with skirt right? It's both decorative and functional. The stuff without skirt is for display only.

EDIT: In case there is any confusion, long tunic for armored men is just a skirt.
