I like this.
It would feel more expansive/immersive if the hide and fur armor you created took on the appearance of the various pelts you use. I also wouldn't mind making fur hats, wolf head hoods, fox pelt coats, so on and so forth. It would also be interesting to be able to use bits of leather or fur to adorn weapons or armor, not just improve them.
For that matter, it would be neat if they'd just open up the basic layouts of the various armor sets so that you could mix and match materials and meshes. Ebony armor with some silver inlay bits on a wire mesh frame of the Plate Steel set. Steel plate with gold trimming or even golden plates on the chest or shoulders, all set on the Glass Mesh Frame set. Open it up so that if we get to a sufficient smithing skill level we can adapt or modify our gear how we see fit; and let those modifications play with the gear ratings. I could have hours of fun just playing with the gear I already have, modifying its look and so forth.
Granted, I can improve the items I gain but what else can I do once all my gear is Legendary? Going beyond that is what I would really like to see. Some new armor sets would be neat too =D
