Well, allow others to suggest names for your outfits and the title you see is what you get.

Hehe

I know I haven't made an outfit in a very long time. I had all the intentions of making a Christmas-y outfit with the holiday being a couple days away and all. I took my inspiration and put it into the color; however, that's about where the inspiration ends - LOL. It was fairly simple to put together. It is made of things I had laying around in my shared storage and wardrobe. I don't have too much on my beorning yet. 

The outfit is made from:

Medium Nadhin Mask (Dyed Crimson)

Golden Tree Summer Cloak (Dyed Red)

Footman's Armour (Dyed Crimson)

Dwarf Leather Gloves of Fate (Dyed Crimson)

Horse Maiden's Trousers (Dyed Crimson)

Tursur-Lhopan (Dyed Grey)

Elven Commander

Wearing heavy armour is a tricky task on my elf because she is usually too delicate to pull the armour off; however, I think she wears this well. It doesn't seem over-bearing. I like the bit of androgyny that this outfit gives her. She looks like she could be a commander in an army.

I also spent like 300 gold on this outfit, but I suppose inflated AH prices don't faze you when you have thousands of gold to waste on whatever you want. I don't spend gold on much else..

This outfit is comprised of:

Potent Fangorn Helmet of Command

Potent Fangorn Pauldrons of Valour

Cloak of the Grey Company (dyed Ranger Green)

Potent Fangorn Armour of Command

Boots of the Light Step (dyed Ranger Green)

The Wandering Minstrel

Somewhere in Middle Earth roams a lone minstrel.

She plays tunes that lightens the spirits of all the weary travelers she encounters.

She is wearing:

Ceremonial Circlet of the Seven Stars (Dyed Ered Luin Blue)

Supple Great River Pauldrons of Vitality (Dyed Ered Luin Blue)

Footman's Armour (Dyed Ered Luin Blue)

Strong Eastemnet Combat Leggings (Dyed Ered Luin Blue)

Tursur-Lhopan (Dyed Ered Luin Blue)

Warrior

So tomorrow, the Dawnbreakers will be having a cosmetics competition to celebrate the arrival of Helms Deep. This is the final event of a series of events planned to usher in the new expansion. There were a few categories - I chose Warrior.

This is what I came up with.

I love that cloak! Since I'm supposed to be portraying a warrior, I had to take one action shot. I snapped this on my mad race to get to 95.

This outfit has several components:

Fine Grey Company Wrap (Dyed Turquoise)

Supple Wildemore Cloak of Loyalty (Dyed Sea Blue)

High Officer's Armour (Dyed Turquoise)

Gloves of the Hammerhand

Thick Elven Soldier's Leggings (Dyed Turquoise)

Hardened Elven Officer's Potent Boots (Dyed Turquoise)

Helm's Deep Pre-Order Cosmetics

Well, everyone, Helm's Deep is upon us - like it or not. We're in for class changes and big battles and, of course, cosmetics. Today, I thought I'd take a look at our new cosmetics for Helm's Deep and at how they look on different types of characters.

All the cosmetics you will see are:

Helm of the Hammerhand

Shoulders of the Hammerhand

Hauberk of the Hammerhand

Gloves of the Hammerhand

Boots of the Hammerhand

Shield of the Hammerhand

First off is my little hobbit!

 

And then there is little hobbit on her war steed!

(The regular mount is almost indistinguishable from the war steed.)

Now comes Andadrien! I had to leave the 'moors for this. Dang cosmetics ban in the moors! The armour looks a little bit too bulky for her slender, elven frame. I don't think this is the look for her. However, here are a few views:

 

Lastly, for a male character wearing the outfit, we have Andadarthir. In my opinion, this is a much better outfit for a male character - probably even better for a man rather than a male elf.

 

Red and Blue

Just a few days ago, I was doing Grand Stair to work towards my black goat for finishing the Moria meta deed. This cloak dropped and I decided to keep it as I liked the look. I had a similar cloak at one point but trashed it after not coming up with any ideas. Well, I was opening loot boxes and a hauberk that I've seen but not owned was inside. Low and behold, they match almost too perfectly. I tried it on Andadrien, but I didn't like the look. I thought it might look better on a male character, so off to log on to Andadarthir, my level 20 Rune Keeper and only male character.

Andadarthir is wearing:

Dorchol (Dyed Red)

Hauberk of the Eagle's Crest (Dyed Crimson)

Hardened Elven Officer's Potent Boots (Dyed Crimson)

Outfit for Icye.

So I made Icye an outfit the other day, about the same day I made the crimson outfit a couple posts ago for Andadrien. I suppose I'm in a "red kick". I tend to get in color fads where I make a lot of outfits in the same color and then completely stop and move on to the next color. Maybe it's too much red, but oh well, I like it.

Here's a couple screen shots of Icye's character along with a surprise appearance from a silly little dwarf who decided to photo-bomb my screen shot! Hehe! I don't remember what I used for this outfit. If I remember to ask Icye what this is, I will update.

The Tiniest Rohirrim.

I made this outfit when my little hunter first entered Rohan - she certainly needed a new outfit to wear in this grand new place that she'd yet to venture in to. She's ready to ride and be as fearsome as the next!

She roams from the Eaves of Fangorn to the fields of the Wold in:

Ceremonial Doom-Hunter's Helm - Dyed Olive

Dunland Caretakers's Patched Mantle - Dyed Olive

Strong Dunlending Combat Armour - Dyed Umber

Traveller's Road-worn Bracers - Dyed Umber

Vibrant Brushed Skirmish Boots - Dyed Olive

"Quiet as shadow"

Nightshade

I finally decided to make a violet outfit for myself. Violet reminds me of poison, and well, violet is the color of the poisonous Nightshade plant, so it works. I made another violet outfit a few weeks ago for Antropyne who got his name from the poison in that plant. It's a shame I didn't screenshot it in the dressing room before I sent it over. Also, congratulations to him for making officer in the Dawnbreakers - you deserve it, Antro!

 

If you wish to recreate this look, use the following:

Vibrant Eastemnet Campaign Circlet (Dyed Violet) 
Yes, I know I use this circlet on like every single outfit, but what can I say? It's simple - it's versatile.
Fine Grey Company Wrap (Dyed Violet)
Cloak of the Grey Company (Dyed Violet)
Footman's Armour (Dyed Violet)
Fine Grey Company Gauntlets (Dyed Violet)
Padded Leggings of the Dunland Soothsayer (Dyed Violet)
Boots of the Light Step (Dyed Violet)

Lots of items, lots of dye, but not really difficult to put together. I found the chest piece in the AH, the Grey Company stuff is from epics, and the pants are a Dunland quest reward (and there are identical ones in the AH with different names)..

EDIT:

Antropyne was nice enough to take a moment to send over a screenshot of his hobbit's outfit that I made:

Seeing Red.

Well, the color of the day is red. I got this new shiny cloak, and, of course, I had to have an outfit to match. It doesn't feel very mini-ish, but nonetheless, it matches my cloak. Also, Gilorad was in a red outfit today, and it went well with mine. At least he wasn't wearing his ridiculous bandana:

Today, Gil and I looked like we planned to have matching outfits: 

We didn't plan it. It just worked out that way. Here is a full body shot:

Sorry for the darkness of the screenies; I snapped these as we were jumping on the rafters in the Auction House in Snowbourn.

Here is a parting shot from behind so you can see the cloak that I was so excited about:

I am wearing:

Vibrant Eastemnet Campaign Circlet (Dyed Red)

Curucham (Dyed Red)

Elven Steel Gauntlets (Dyed Red)

Elven Steel Leggings (Dyed Red)

Elven Steel Boots (Dyed Red)

Wyrmscale Wizard's Cloak

(AKA Panda's Power Cloak)

Gilorad was wearing:

Dreng-gesc (Dyed Red)

Dreng-folme (Dyed Red)

Enduring Helm of Might (Dyed Red)

Hyrde-Breost (Dyed Red)

Ornate Pauldrons of the Dunland Swordsman (Dyed Red)

EDIT: Look at these sweet new shoulders I put on this outfit!

The shoulders are the Shoulders of the Death Storm (Dyed Red).

Blue

Darror wanted a blue outfit. So I made him one for his birthday a while back.

Here is Darror wearing his outfit and barefooted, as usual. I would have completed the look with a pair of boots, but he wouldn't have worn them. For some reason I can't explain, he never wears shoes. He actually told me to make him outfits that he could wear without shoes...

And here is the back:

He was in a raid on an alt of his when I posted this. Next time I see him on his main, I will update this to say what this outfit is comprised of.

You're an officer you say?

So, this is another Dawnbreakers and kinship color related post. This time is for the officers. Black and gold are still the main colors for these outfits, but they are also accented with red.

The first image is Andadrien wearing an example of something that would be appropriate for the female officer to wear.

The next picture is Andadrien and Rindaroth. Rindaroth is wearing an outfit that is good for a male officer. Speaking of Rindaroth and officer outfits, he was promoted to officer today. Congratulations to him!

And to get a better look at the cloak he has on:

Andadrien is wearing:

Vibrant Eastemnet Campaign Circlet (Dyed Black)

Extravagant Festival Dress (Dyed Black)

Gwir-Palvais (Dyed Black)

Plain Cloak (Dyed Crimson)

Rindaroth is wearing:

(I will update this next time he is in-game.)

Riding into Rohan

This is my riding into Rohan outfit. Both the chest piece and the horse come with buying the Riders of Rohan expansion pack. 

The steed pictured is the Steed of the Eastemnet.

You need the follow for this outfit:

Hauberk of the Eastemnet

Cloak of the Dreamflower (Dyed Umber)

Elven Steel Boots (Dyed Olive)

A Trip up Iorbar's Peak!

I was doing Iorbar's Peak last night with Aegelrod and Belgor when I noticed that we all looked really good.

Belgor who is front and center is wearing on of the Hytbold sets for the captain which I think looks really nice, but you will probably see a lot of other captains wearing this. So if you choose to wear it, there is your pro and your con.

I am wearing the outfit I discussed on this post.

Unfortunately, you don't get a good look at Aegelrod's outfit (on the right) in the screenshot I grabbed. I think it looks really nice. I was, however, able to try the items on in the dressing room and this is how they look on Andadrien:

 He is wearing Grey Company Cosmetics:

Fine Grey Company Tunic

Fine Grey Company Wrap

Fine Grey Company Gauntlets

Fine Grey Company Boots
