Aether-Captain

I'm going for a steampunk/atherblade/captain look to go with my incinerator, and soon to be HOPE. I love the way the flame quiver looks from behind with the arm from incinerator, and I like the fused gloves for that same reason. I'm not a huge fan of the chest, purely because of the way it looks from the back. The front looks awesome imo, but I'm not a huge fan of the butt flap and it kinda looks like cloth, not leather. I hate all the trench coats for a speedy thief, so my options are pretty limited. The boots and legs have also been a bit of a problem, I was using the glorious legs but they clip with a ton of boots. Any help/advice on dyes would also be greatly appreciated, as I'm not a huge fan of the red either, but every other color I've tried instead doesn't really fit the theme. Also is really dark and kinda butchers a lot of the textures. I apologize for the mediocre screenshots, just tried to get a lot of lighting. The hero panel screen is probably the easiest one to see clearly. Thank you for any help in advance!
