Are you asking about the method itself (basically making new armour) or the texture itself? To the first, I'm doing quite a bit of this myself. As for the texture, I'm not a fan. My suggestion would be to look at the armour in some mods. http://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,20947.0.html that one has a nice scale texture.

Actually I find it alright for a mod, especially if it saves you enough time to make much more of them or concentrate on gameplay.

I love diversity in the mods

It's always nice to see other players working on scale armour textures. Depending on what you do with the alpha layer, that texture would look good in-game. I'd roll with it and see what you can come up with.

Much better

The second version is MUCH improved over the first. Keep it up, we need more scale textures available for mods.

I like it a lot

The first, (No offense, and in MY Opinion) borked.

The second was nice! Improved greatly.

The third was 'holy cow' nice!  Please continue!

Everytime I look at that screenshot, it reminds me of a maid's outfit. I think it is the colors, lol. Other than that, it looks good. For the Byzantine lamellar, you might want to overlay some color or something.

Looks good as a base texture.

Maybe try adding a bit of shading to it. Tone up the shadows and highlights between the lames and add highlights and shadows on the places where they normally appear on the armor (e.g. highlights on the shoulders, shadows on the lower body, etc.)

It looks nicer with only two. The color looks better, too.
