This is the first skin I've ever made. It's inspired by Knights of the nine from Oblivion :D
Anyway, I got the general structure of it down (I think), but as you can see, there's no real metallic texture like there is in the armor in game or on other armored skins. The base is all one color. Can someone help me out, texture wise?

Also, those things on the side of his helmet are wings, like decorative. Just in case anyone was confused.

Ok, I've just edited the helmet so you can get an idea of how to make it look metallic. With metal, you need to use high contrasting colours and never use noise.

Varient 2:
You can add simple bolts to give the experience of it being metal.
