    Although I have lost interest in skimpy armour, I can certainly see why one would wish to show off such really lovely young warriors to their fullest acceptable extent! Gorgeous, my old mate.

    Magical pics, Rick!

    What body type? UNP? CBB? Others?

      I'm old-fashioned, so I don't use any bodyslides or something fancy like that. These women all use the UNP Blessed Body - Redux and I'm still pleased with it.

    Skimpy, yes. Silly, maybe. Impractical, surely.....but who am I to object. If Skimpy Armor Wednesday is a tradition, the week just got a lot better.

    Kidding aside, this enb/LUT combo is gorgeous in these shots. It 's almost like the muted colors bring out the target details better and stronger. With the DOF setting where you have it, the actual subject stands out crisply with these details.

      I'm sorry to say - for your sake that is - Skimpy Armor Wednesday is not a thing here at the Skyrim section! We do have Sexy Wednesday which more or less often are the same, but it's slightly turning into a Womanly Wednesday to celebrate the female, and not just her looks. So this was just my way to still do a Sexy Wednesday...without calling it a Sexy Wednesday, if that makes any sense!

      This is actually the LUT I'm using the most at the moment for normal gameplay. I really like the lack of colours and since it's so basic in it's pale colour tones, it's quite easy to enhance certain tints to achieve different effects. The DoF sure looks nice going creamy white like that too, even if I prefer rich shadows and ink-black backgrounds, but as with everything it depends on the situation. For a showcase with poses only, this sure looks fine...

    I'm not into skimpy armours - on the contrary
    But you have some extraordinary gals here. Love their looks and the way they're being presented. Great job!

      I'm not the biggest fan of them either when in-game, but there's simply so many of them around, they more or less can't be avoided. I also grew up when armors like these were more or less a must for female fantasy warriors. That doesn't excuse me from showing them, but it can be done rather neatly and clean too, and that's my point here.

      I'm very glad you like the ladies...and I assure you, they dress a lot more appropriate when I play them in my game!

    I always laugh at these outfits. Terribly impractical but high on the aesthetics. As you know, Freyda has a liking for them....

      For one thing, you'll need to be a very brave woman if wearing anything like this, combat or no combat!

      But I'm a middle-aged man, born in the 70´s, so I've been around long enough to see the background for these kind of armors. When fantasy "hit the mark" most of the women were depicted in similar outfits. We have Red Sonja obviously, but also the artwork of Boris Vallejo and others. They did incredible stuff on this theme and set a tone for fantasy that still holds today, no matter what we think about it. I can appreciate these kind of armors too - and I'm a sucker for realism when roleplaying - because they're part of my youth. I much more prefer realistic armors when in-game or writing stories myself, but for screenshots...well, I'd be a hypcrite if I said they hold no interest to me aesthetically. It's nostalgia I suppose as long as it's done with good captures and not for the cause of just showing skin.
