I saw this golden armor (right) that looked like it could use an update. What I ended up with (left) isn't so golden, but maybe it's still useful.

Nice improvement, I wouldn't mind if armor.png got replaced by that one. A somewhat golden-looking variation would be good for replacing the actual armor-golden.png, though, as we can't change the filename in 1.6.

Not wanting to hijack or anything... But your new armour is a bit inspiring, so I'm currently working on a new golden one. I'll post it in a while, if you don't mind.

I definitely prefer the new one. And it wouldn't be terribly difficult to make it golden and have two versions. More items would be great to have I think especially if more RP based campaigns get made or mainlined like UtBS. Then again I am not Jetryl, so I'm just going what I think would be cool as an artist and player of the game.

Looks good to me. Though maybe put it one a hanger or something? It looks really odd to have it just standing up on its own like that, especially since it's chain mail...

A hanger seems reasonable, even though most gamers are probably already used to objects standing on their own, floating, spinning to get attract attention etc.

Just finished with the golden thingy, didn't add a hanger (yet). I'm not much into making items, but knowing what doofus-01's done so far with weapons and armor, I'd really like to see more of em from him.

Given the individuals in question, I am sure clarification was not needed as they both knew what they were talking about and just used the first word that sprung to mind. I doubt they were going to stick a wire hanger at the top and hang it on a clothes-rack. Though you never know with Girgistian...

No problem, the more the merrier.
I added a hanger and took another pass at the golden armor. It might be a little flat.

A bit more golden would be good, and with smaller specular highlights.

Gold is an awful lot yellower than that... In terms of values, it looks fine, but you need to get the hue right.
