Confused about armor styles and the graphic appearance

I crafted heavy armor for my Imperial Dragon Knight, level 3, AD faction, then i crafted heavy armor for my Imperial Night Blade, level 3, EP faction. The two sets of heavy armor look completely different. Now, I thought the style you crafted in was what made the armor graphic...both are Imperial, both are level 3, both have a set of heavy armor crafted in the Imperial style, but both look completely different?
So I'm assuming the faction also affects the graphic, or does the faction dictate the graphic? Or is it the class you put the armor on? I'm confused.

Rogallaig✭✭I don't think the issue is the fact that your characters are in different factions. The issue is that they're different classes. Heavy Dragonknight armor looks different from heavy Nightblade armor.2 -

✭Ok, I suspected that that was the case, which is pretty neat that they did different graphics for each class...Now I have to see what the heavy armor looks like on a sorceror

Wow, if that's true that's a shocker :O The devs certainly never disclosed that fact, and it's "common knowledge" that class doesn't affect armor appearance. (Which like all "common knowledge" could be false of course
)
Time to do some testing to confirm. I'd be interested to see if putting the SAME piece of armor on two different classes really changes its appearance. You want to try taking screens of your two characters wearing the exact same chest piece?

✭It definitely does, level 1 crafted Imperial heavy chest armor on my level 3 DK looks completely different than level 1 crafted Imperial heavy chest armor on my level 3 Nightblade (both Imperials). DK's is much cooler, for the record.
Also, neither of them look like the starter armor that's shown at character creation.0
