Breath of the Wild Barbarian Armor in FNV

I've been playing a tribal build in Fallout: New Vegas for a while and have found an armor I think would fit such a build: Link's Barbarian Armor from Breath of the Wild. One look at it and I just had to have it. Here's the basic concept:

And a draft someone made on the New Vegas Nexus:

Close to the mark so far, but then there's the helmet. For that, I'm thinking of a couple different versions with one using a skull as a base and the other using the Remnants power helmet. Feathers from a decanus helmet up front with shotshell strands from SUW's helmet in the back altered so as to look like long braids. As for a belt, I'm thinking a mix of stuff from both White Legs armor and Brotherhood scribe robes. So I'd say we're looking at assets from the base game, Honest Hearts, and Gun Runner's Arsenal at the very least.

Bear in mind that I have no modding experience as far as making armor, weapons, etc. goes. I've only made minor edits to existing mods in the GECK but nothing as complex as this.
 
cool. Helmet seens impossible tough.

Another super important thing I forgot to mention. I never did, I do not and I will NEVER make a mod for these custom bodys. Be it robert, brezee, bruzee, brazzers, type 3, type 6, type O negative, type this, type that or any other custom body that exists.

Do not insist, this is not under negotiation. Again: I have nothing against these mods and the authors are better modders than I will ever be, it's simply that I do not use them. That simple.

I know the vanilla body has a mass of meat instead of a foot, but that's not a problem, I have a foot with fingers here that is already perfect.
So if you use some of these bodies, let me know as soon and we stop here.
 
Fair dinkum. Mod away. I don't really use custom bodies anyway.

And the helmet isn't an issue. I've always got TLWR!SUW's helmet which already looks like it'd work well with the armor.
 
can we see it?

I made a draft here,

but it will not get much better than this. Well, it has the textures and that's it
 
No problems. I even made a trusty barbarian club to accompany your char on his adventures.

That'll smash plenty of Legion and NCR skulls. Perhaps a certain White Glove reactionary or two whom we all know. Even Caesar, House, Kimball, and Oliver will meet their ends this way.
 
Amazing! Look forward to tearing ass through the Mojave with this getup! My tribal Queen of the Mojave will look sharp ripping through Profligates, Legionaries, Fiends, and anything else that moves.
 
cool. Now I need the stats of the armor, helmet and club (weight, value, bonus etc)

Where I can put this? Tribal Village?
 
Tribal village sounds good, especially if I fancy getting in some early leveling right out of Goodsprings. It's right nearby, and full of enemies that the devs "didn't" intend for you to fight that early in the game. Close to the beginning but you still have to fight for it, though the Cazadores yield good XP for the early game.

Stats: I'm thinking about +20 each to Sneak, Survival, Unarmed, Melee; +2 to STR; +20 to AP for the armor. As for the helmet, +1 to PER with comparable bonuses to those of SUW's helmet. The club could do knockdowns on crit and/or a Mauler attack in V.A.T.S. (a la Oh, Baby! or the Blade of the West), with comparable damage to Oh, Baby!

Weight: I think about 6 for the armor, 3 for the helmet, and 12 for the club sounds about right.
 
ok. Armor almost ready, almost finish with textures

the bad news: I sux at this.

The good news: I've enlisted someone for the textures of the helmet, so the horn and the skull will have the same color, as if it were a single piece :)


edit

with comparable bonuses to those of SUW's helmet.

Oh, forgot the DT for each:

Helmet: 4 (Bonuses: Crit chance +2, Sneak +5)
Armor: 8

And for the club:

Damage: 80
DPS: 138.9
 
Following up on this, I just had an idea: Why not take the braids from the Barbarian Helmet and put them on the altered SUW helmet from The Legion Will Ryse? Remove the horns and Predator-style rope dreadlocks and replace them with the braids from our Barbarian Helmet. Best of both worlds. And make it a separate item, same location as the armor.

Basically this:

And the helmet we already have now having a hornless, red-haired, bloody-faced baby. But make the red braids longer if possible--as much as the Predator dreads on SUW's helmet. If not, that's okay. But if so, hopefully they shouldn't clip through power armor in case I decide to do a power armor run in the future.

Same with custom hairs because I installed one hair mod long since I got this current mod and had some clipping issues with the Barbarian Helmet; no such issue with the TLWR helmet above (I've tested the BH on companions and had no problems with them).

Keep stats the same as with the OG helmet.

Thanks! :)
