Thanks for the followup, Bubu! I wasn't trying to call you out; just wanted to highlight it because I know people are looking for leather-like armor sets.

Personally, the set lacks coherence. Stuff looks like it was just thrown onto a base set of armor.
You could always create an outfit that represents one of the three different themes you are piling onto this one; green dragon, black dragon, or Troll mail. However, for a more satisfying route, two of the themes could potentially be combined if you can find armor that blends both of the two ideas together (i.e. Troll-based gear that goes with your cloak as well as other pieces of gear based on black dragons. Maybe there's ZG/ZA gear or BC Justice Point Troll gear that matches the coloration of your cloak and polearm.) Needless to say, making a mix of green and black dragon gear would be the hardest to pull off.
Your intention to combine the Troll and Dragon themes is actually pretty cool. Keep looking, and I'm sure you'll create a set that looks great.

Thanks for the feedback
Obviously, the base set is green dragonscale. The belt and boots are a reasonable match, I thought at least. The boots have smaller, scale like detailing and the belt also has more detail than most.
The green on the head, alas, is a little strong. But with a model that distinctive, it is a compromise perhaps worth making.
Shoulders - well, there aren't many shoulders that look any good at all, and those are pure troll.
The gun is my favourite model crafted gun - a long barrel, distinctive sights and a feather to boot!
I was looking at various spear models with a greenish look so it was by chanceI happened upon looking at Blackfury. True, its not green, but it has 'dragon slayer' written all over it.
That just leaves the cloak. I can't say I'm 100% happy on this. I also have the same model in green (Farstrider Wildercloak from kara), but as noted previously one can perhaps be too green.

The bow is
Astral Light Bow, the sword is
Barovian Family Sword, and the cape is
Stoneskin Gargoyle Cape.

I used those very same spalders. Try staying with blacks and browns like I did with mine. Also it doesn't hurt to look at npcs as a reference or to get ideas. For mine I looked at Taurens in Thunderbluff and tried my make myself look like an npc as much as possible. If you want to see my rp set I'll re upload picture again.

Looks like
Lightning-Charged Battlegear(minus the helmet - and I think the boots are the
Hyjal rep ones) with
Rhok'delar and the
Draenic Wildstaff. :)
I've given up on my Ten Storms recolor and decided I'd rather wear Giantstalker. It's so pretty. I just can't get it to drop. I wanted to do something different and make a set out of scratch(or the orange/brown Giantstalker recolor) but I'm missing a piece that, for some reason, is a quest reward for a quest I've already done - so I'm just done fighting with it. I'll make pretty, unique sets for my priest and other hunter. xP

Ty for the info!

The lightning charged stuff is out of my reach atm. I wouldn't be able to get the shoulders, but the staff/bow I do want!

Unless you have them already, you won't be able to get them. :/ The hunter quest was removed from the game, along with the other old class quests.

The set I want for my mage, sadly, not all the parts are available anymore. (Ironweave Battlesuit, tier .05)
The set I'll get for my mage instead.. (Tier 5)
If they put the old Ironweave set in the Darkmoon faire, I'll have to wait and see how many people grab it. If it's popular, I'd rather go farm the Tier 5 set and use that. Since the Tier 5 is farmable, I'm hoping they don't make it available via the Faire.
Don't know about my hunters. Orc may be the crafted Black Dragonscale, but, if they don't help BM a bit in 4.3, my mage might be my main. But that's another topic...

You can definitely still get the staff, at 85 Auchenai Crypts runs are faceroll easy - the bow is, as Kalli said, sadly no longer obtainable. I can't think of any other leaf-themed gear, but there are green mail pieces here and there; I'm not sure if any would look as nice as the Lightning-Charged stuff, but you can always lurk the AH. :P

I settled for the dark green of savage gladiators pursuit for now.

I got the staff. I do still need a green themed pole-arm and an appropriate bow. Suggestions more than welcome. I'm stumped.
