Kingdoms of Arda is a Singleplayer & Multiplayer total conversion of Mount & Blade II Bannerlord, that brings the world of Tolkien into the game. This includes: characters, locations, weapons etc. from The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, Silmarillion and other works by Tolkien and media made for his universe.
Large thanks to John Snow, who has shared his version of this armour for me to build off of!
What mod does John Snow work for/on?
Rise of Mordor :P
Loll
Whatt?:)
Its from Grimnir i believe, think that was his skype username or something.
Indeed, wasn't sure of his other alias.
I guess John Snow knows something after all.
Magnificent! Bravo!
Looks ******* amazing, as always!
Absolutely brilliant, really looking forward to this in game!
Finally...
I know! Durin's folk all the way baby!
Hey, cousin!
By my beard, look at that armour! Du Bekar!
Looking great! Arms look a bit too thin though if you ask me:-)
I thought the same thing when I was putting together the renders, I already thickened them up a bit :)
Big muscly dwarvern arms, sounds like quite the fetish mrfista ;)
:D
Awesome work, like always :)
I feel like the legs are a little too thin on the front other than that it's amazing ^-^
That can be changed too :P
Will there be more variations of the armor? Like maybe say one with no pauldrons on the shoulders and just short sleeve chain mail inside the breastplate for a light more rugged look?
Yep, already got a few variations planned.

Will these be for different tiers of soldier John? :P
Yessir, they are.
Will you do some thing like this? Pretty pretty plz!! I love this armor concept it's so warrior like with no sleeves or armor on the arms and gives a much more lighter and flexible look but still looks so dwaven

If we can find a suitable place for it yes. Or at least something themed around it, as imo that armour is rather nonsensical.
Maybe it can be something like "salvaged dwarf armor" or maybe like a mobiley elite dwarf armor and if it seems nonsensical because of fact it doesn't have protection for the arms maybe you could just add short sleeve chainmail to the arms to keep with the lighter plate armor look just throwing you some ideas man :)
I think we will have this armour used ingame, although with armoured arms. We can make a armourless armed version too, for those with less care for their extremities :P
Awesome!! :D I think haveing both versions of the armor will really add more variety thanks for listening to the community feed back!! :D
Something like this is exactly what I envision in my head I think it would be an amazing fit into the mod but maybe make the sleeves a little shorter? :)

Yo! The newest Bannerlord gameplay confirmed physics for cloaks and ****! Means we are getting physics for the gondor armor's cape, right?
Was pretty hyped to see that myself, will definitely have it for Gondorian armour, along with the rest of the cloaks too!
The armor looks really good! The details are stunning!
May I ask in what program you make these models? I like playing around in Photoshop, Indesign and Illustrator for my work.. but that is only for making brochures / flyers and adjusting images. I like to learn more about modeling :)
Thanks!
The model was done in Blender, although sometimes I use Zbrush, depending on the model. Texturing is done with Substance Painter.
Goodluck with modelling, and feel free to ask any questions :)
Thanks for letting me know, I will have a go with these programs!
And again, great work with these models, haven't seen many models that are so detailed. Can't wait for Bannerlord and this mod to go live! :)
Hey, I was wondering if you can actual play as ologs and trolls or are they only npcs?
We want them to be playable in custom battles, but not in the campaign.
The beards will be visible with the helmet on.. right ?!?
Of course.
love it
