I know this hasn't been posted to in a bit but figured I might as well ask anyway. I purposely avoid raider PA because of the re-barb added, I know lore and all but I hate the look, but I then found this. I then also found your other mod "Well Loved Raider Power Armor" and began to cry when I loved the texture of it but it had the re-barb. Now I know its a longshot but is or would it be possible to use this model but with the texture of your Well Loved Raider Power Armor. I'm no modder so no idea what all would be required but again figured I would ask and see if ya might do it anyways. If not no worries.
~Explanation~ I have some questions, see, from the get-go I was upset that you couldn't painter raider armour. The Sole Survivor can paint T-60 and X-01 to fit a design they could have only possibly seen on T-45, T-51, Motorbikes and Cars. So why can't they paint scrap metal. Then while searching for mods, years before anything like this came out I came across stealth paint for ALL PA's, it's predecessor also stated that the Hot Rod ones we're there but there were no textures: https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/7678/? (Chop Shop has always been too much for me)
So I spent ages (years) asking around and then two pop up at once, much like London busses. So *unless you adopt the features of the other, or someone with the knowhow can create me a patch that makes yours a base and the other I'm going to link just be a faction badge on top,, *I am very torn. https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/41955

The rebar is actually meant to invoke slat armor, so omitting it would technically imply that this is less defensive. Though obviously the game mechanics don't really allow for slat armor to actually do what it's intended for, but storywise we can assume that the raiders do benefit from it as much as slat armor can benefit one. And if civilians made use of the makeshift power armor plating that raiders do, they'd likely want that slat armoring as well.
I'd like to add on that it prob wouldn't hurt if you tried to make the PA parts um more symmetrical like how other pa normal is... at least since your going for a pre-war look I don't see why the arms and legs and shoulder pauldrons would be in different positions :? other then that I'd say when working on the texture again be aware of how the different plates of metal are on the parts as I think that is what made it hard to think well of for a solid color.
I do like the fact you removed the extra rebarb sticking out That really makes and fits the look you mention to be aiming for.

Sorry if this is just a waste of time.

maybe add different color pieces instead of making it all red
other then that I'd say when working on the texture again be aware of how the different plates of metal are on the parts as I think that is what made it hard to think well of for a solid color.
