About this image

So as some may have seen with my other mod, a retexture of the First Officer outfit, I really like the Ranger, space cowboy aesthetic. I've enjoyed putting together my little peacekeeper faction and so I wanted more armor selections than the vanilla Rangers offered. I really liked the officers coat, but since I wanted to outfit some of the "soldiers" at my outpost, I wanted a heavier more armored Ranger outfit to go along with it. Thus I retextured the First Soldier Armor to accompany it. 

I'm really enjoying making these actually despite really not touching Bethesda game files for years, and I'm pleased with how the texturing on this came out and I think I might revisit the officer outfit at some point and improve the normal maps now that I've gotten used to fiddling with them a bit. It definitely adds a lot more depth to it.

It's more than just a recolor though since there's depth and material masks to go through and so it's not quite done. I've only done about half of what I needed to do to release this armor to nexus. Male textures are maybe finished. Haven't touched the female ones yet. If all goes well, this should be up this evening. I only removed the decal on the front of armor and haven't replaced it with anything and I feel it might look a little empty. I'm thinking I might put something small on there, possibly an insignia or a rank. Another ranger badge would be overkill since the texture mirrors and so there's one on each shoulder.
