Barding design feedback

Hi! Small feedback.
I was looking to costume my horses with AOC barding for pictures and a few of the designs had me scratching my head.
You guys are always asking for feedback so I hope this is welcomed. My intentions are to help, not insult. :)

These are meant to be attached to the cinch/girth( The strap that goes around the belly )
This is what secures the saddle to the mount.

If this post is welcomed I'm sure other equestrians can hop in and share feedback too.

    I think you are judging concept art a bit harshly.

    Might want to look at the finished design items to see if these flaws are still there.

    This is the kind of detail that developers would 100% not think about. They almost definitely wouldn't even know how it was supposed to go.

    This is good feedback imo.

    Would it not be better to point it out before work goes into modeling? The intrepid team has been pretty great at matching concept art to the rendering. Again, it wasn't meant to be harsh. Just friendly feedback from someone that intends on spending a lot of time crafting and looking at barding in game. :)

    Well the saddle is attached to the armor as well. Still no reason to not add

    Nice attention to detail, @ultrared . I just figured the poor bastards that use that cosmetic would chronically fall off their horses. :D
