Can we make armor look intelligent

So making armor out of a material and having haft the armor be the wrong material looks really stupid. And would be a really easy fix. Just make the marts that are the straight wrong material, the right material. Now that the games playable, I feel like polish is worth considering again.

Some examples of armor just looking bad. These would look so much better if they were just the 1 material they were made of.

The first pic is actually nice. The second would look even worse if your suggestion is implemented, because the texture is terrible to begin with.

On a sidenote, from realism perspective, it doesn't make sense that we can make plate armour out of bone and turtle shells unless there's some serious magic involved.

Magic skills not required - means not involved even from lore side

I know many people who hate the Khurite Splinted helmet because of that bright metallic shine, that can't be changed regardless what material is used.

Making armor out of bone makes more sense than making armor out of bone and leather and then having half of it be made out of steel anyway. Even though it doesnt give steel stats.

Yes the second one would look like ass no matter what lol. But It would at least be consistent. it just fees like such a mess when half ur armor is made out of its possibly ugly material, and then the other half is just the wrong material that doesnt go with your main material at all, and should have just been the material you used.

And you can't even make it of metals.
Which is why I want it changed. Its dumb that T guard has metal shoulders when it cant be made out of metal. Etc.

Behold, armor that doesnt look like ass.

Why does metal get to look consistent but animal materials look bugged and have the random steel texture on half of it?
