Hey guys, what do you think is the coolest medium armor look? You can mix heavy and light too, I'm looking to make some dank-bomb-ass armor. Throw out some suggestions of yours with pics preferred please!

    I really liked the early craftable sets...I think it was Ashen Grip that I used on my stamblade. I colored it dark red/black and loved the look

    At lower levels, Bosmer gave a great Agent/Burglar look when colored correctly. Unfortunately, at higher levels, it gets too many bone spikes sticking out of it. Breton seems to be the closest to that kind of look at higher levels.

    For my character whom I RP as an Ashlander, a mix of Primal and Barbarian works well, but I think I ended up going with a Redguard helmet.

    Nord Medium really just looks like Heavy, in my opinion.

    I like the cp160 ep chest specifically. If your WW when you transform a dragon apperars on the fur of the back if it is contrasted(ie white dragon on red armor) looks awesome.

    My stam sorc with Syvarra's (not sure what style it is). The trousers are bahara's in this pic, now I use the flanking set and it has more of a robe bottom/skirt look. Still works. Kena shoulders, Bloodspawn helm.

    Bosmer leathers look really nice on female models. Mercenary armor is another really nice look for medium IMO.

    I don't have any shots of my new gear, but all merc with kena helm and shoulders looks freakin' awesome with the right dyes. I'll try to remember to update this thread with pics when I get home.

    Depends on what your character concept is... my newest character, a Stamblade, I wanted a ninja assassin so the "Assassin's League" style works extremely well... although I'm using Mercenary Hands and Feet for more of a 'Ninja Gaiden' appearance... even crafted a 'Khajiit' chest and 'Abah's Watch' shoulders that I can pop on for a sleeveless look. ;)

    I don't care for Merc medium top, but I love the merc light jack - it really looks fine.
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.

    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis

    I'd go with mercenary, since most medium looks too heavy imo.. Khajit is a really close second, but the quilted pants makes my eyes hurt

    Malacath

    Ancient Orc

    I'm not sure if it's the malacath or Trinimac head piece but it's just sic.
