Help needed: Tauren Warrior

[Karathyriel]

My 100th post!

I've rolled a Tauren Warrior for a role play project.
Up until now, I had no problem since I'm using heirlooms for leveling and under lvl 40 we're talking about mail, not plate.

But now, I almost reached lvl 40 and I start worrying about getting some items that would make a great transmog set for my "horny" guy.

The problem is, I can't seem to find items that would fit my needs and look good on a Tauren.
Since I like a more natural look, I don't want any items that emit sparks, light, fumes or other strange things. I want the items to look like you could actually make them.
As a Tauren, he also should look a bit "tribal". I mean more like leather than steel. More like native american than an actual knight in armor.
Oh, and my Warriors is gonna use a spear!

I have already done this once to my first ever toon. But I don't wanna copy the set, I want something different.
This is my first toon in his mogged gear:


I've no idea on how to accomplish what I'm looking for.
So, if you please, could you help me out?
I'd really appreciate it.

I'm not sure if there was a particular colour scheme you had in mind so I stuck with mostly tan/earthy tones. If that makes it too similar to your other tauren's transmog I apologize. I focused more on pieces that had some fur or otherwise looked as close to leather or material as possible considering the plate section is fairly metal intensive. I chose to use the Thunder Bluff Tabard since the plate chest pieces are all rather...platey, and it gives a nice finished look, meaning you could use whatever chest piece you wanted underneath. Shoulders could be optional too in Legion, giving him even more of a naturalistic appearance. Also I'm not sure if you already had a spear picked out, but I just liked this weapon, it had a very arrowhead look that I felt fit well with a Native American theme. Anyways, maybe it'll give you some ideas at the least.

Hm, that's not to bad, maybe I can work from there... Gonna take that set to MogIt and see what I can come up with.
Thanks.

I'd prefer if they made the display of gloves a choice rather than shoulders as there are mostly only very crapy items, looking extremely bulky especially on a Tauren.
Also, I'd rather see the wristband look of the common fantasy hero made possible.

I think the chestpieces are what threw me off anytime I tried to get a set together.
And since I'm not really a fan of tabbards, the idea of covering up the chestpiece never came to me, to be honest.

Anyone else with some ideas?
