Talo Geist's new armor

After his joining Eriana's Church of the Sith, Talo decided to have a new suit of armor made for himself. It retains the same functions as his old armor but is much more decorative.

This new armor is mostly decorative synthetic bantha hide with duraplast plates sewn into the shoulders, chest and shins. The plates sewn into the forearms are made of phrik. It has a hood and cape that reaches to his ankles, and a mask that is more decorative than anything.

Armor description needs to match the image used, and the picture in use very obviously has a helmet and amor for the thigh and groin region. So you need to add head and upper leg as coverage areas, making this heavy armor. Also, that picture doesn't really look very Star Warsy.

My interpretation of the armor has always been a half mask, not a full helmet. Either way, it's impossible to tell with the hood on.

Secondly, the armor is mostly leather bits and cloth. As per my description, entirely decorative asside from where the actual armor plates are sewn into it.

Thirdly, I've seen plenty of other stuff in similar styles on here.

It's protection, so counts. If someone stabs you with a knife on the jaw and the "half mask" is in the way will you not claim it portected him? It's not about your interpretation, it's what is visible in the image. And link me to other profiles which had the same issue and I'll make the same corrections there. Pointing fingers is never a good defense.

Not planning to claim any non effects, a thin piece of synthetic leather couldn't possibly stop a blade of any sort.

Not pointing fingers, merely making a statement.

Yeah that totally looks like rigid armor, not flimsy leather, regardless of the intention. Change it please.

As a friendly suggestion, if you like the rest of the armor, i'd crop the head area out of the image. Then link an image for what the hood would look like in the description.
