Problem with armor dyes on female armor

When I try to dye my chitin armor it looks awful, you can't even tell it's dyed except for some tiny spots, even though the entire piece should be dyed, and my friend whos character is a male is completely colored with the dye. I'm hoping it's just a bug and not intentional.

yea, and also the pattern is off, and the color is kind of distinguished, and dull

I thought this was just how it was and was kinda disappointed. Glad to hear it's a probably a bug

Whoops! This one was my bad! I'm fixing it now, should be 100% new patch. :-)

Thanks for the feedback, Devs! I was wondering why my characters dye was absolutely awful looking at times!

Take a look at the Flak armor as well..
Looks God awful when painted black on a male at least :)
Kinda looks like it's been "slashed" across the front, with something Chrome.. lol

The look it has, when not painted, gets totally changed when painting it black (it did for me and a buddy at least) :)

Thanks very much for the response! Also could you check out the female riding animation on a Sabertooth, seems a little stiff

Yeah I wish the entire set of flak could be painted, just spots on the helm don't seem like enough, especially because they are odd

I'd love to be able to paint flak fully... as the top-tier, end-game armor I feel it really ought to be the *most* customizable.

Exaclty..
Just put on the helmet to show what it looks like, to anyone not getting it:

Looks really weird.. 3 regions to color, but not any region that covers that area - which seems odd, as I don't recall it having that "area" when not applied with dye.

I'm also seeing a similar effect on some other objects when painted, for example the bow is patterns similarly, maybe on purpose though, forgive me if so :P. And the large wooden sign seems to have the same stretched faded effect except for the text. I shall post if I come across anymore :)
