LatexBard, I guess I would be among those who argue against unrealistic fantasy armor...I for one can't stand images of maiden warriors standing off against a dragon in a chainmail bikini. I appreciate a cute female rear-end as much as the next guy...but not in combat. ;) In regards to the underpadding, here's a suggestion that should add to the realism, yet not detract from the image: Buckskin tunic and breeches. Buckskin is very lightweight and quite thin, yet durable, pliable, and for purposes of armor padding, shock and sweat absorbent. Bucksin is also easily dyed in nearly any color, though its natural dark tan to light brown shade would definately compliment the green you're using here. I'm just getting into the whole texturing scene, but I'd say a quick and easy way to accomplish this would be to use the catsuit, with a suitable texture and bump map to provide the look that fits the outfit. Hope this helps... CT
