Imo, It's a pity though that you have to get all the way up to Steel Plate to find a set of Heavy armor that both looks good and has good stats.
Iron is okay, but its pluses come from looking bare-bones functional, rather than aesthetically pleasing. Steel is weird looking, and Dwarven is just one huge piece of "hell naw".
All of this discussion reminds me that at some point I need to get around to making that Khajiit battlemage with Dragonplate armor and the Staff of Magnus* that I've wanted to create for ages.
*I do wish staves were more effective in this game, btw. I mostly carry them to look badass.
