   how do you mean flat and uniform? There really is only so much variation in armors like traditional scale and chainmail.
   
   and as far as the texture being resized I assume you mean the size of the scale on the gloves say for example in relation to the armor ........ there is such a noticable difference in this pic because the gloves are using the vanilla texture files because I haven't gotten that far yet, which are 1024x1024 and the armor/hood is using the texture files from the Bethesda HD pack ..... which are 2048x2048.
   
   Thanks for the feedback

   Pretty good, i like it, although the texture seems still slightly flat and uniform at this point.
   
   For example check the skirt of the guard to the right. It has dirt and dust just at the right spot. Details like that is what will make it seem more alive.
   
   Second and this is i believe a critical point, the size of the texture itself has not been resized to fit the respective parts of the armor.

   My GFX card is not the best, and i don't play with graphics setting maxed, and I don't play with the HD texture pack ........ however when I made the new armor version I downloaded the HD texture pack and extracted the textures from the new BSA files included with the BSA browser built into FOMM.
   
   In this picture the armor and hood are the HD versions, however the gloves are still in the normal resolution.
   
   I'm open to thoughts and critiques
