    Currently there are masks available from which ever seasonal event is being run, but to answer the question... No.

    FAQ, stickied at the top of this forum page:

    8. Can we make dragon armor visible like how the bipeds have visible armor?

I'm going to have to create a grid texture and try to get some sanity into the UVs to make it easier to make the attaching textures. But since this will make visible changes to all dragons it has to be carefully done.

    FAQ - #8

    It has been suggested many times, and denied many times. Dragons were never set up to have attachable models, and it would be very time and resource consuming to do so, from what I've inferred. It probably never will happen, if it is even possible.

    You can still dye your armor-scales to your preference. I find it interesting to dye them to my character's colors. Aesthetics.

    There's also a mod where you can activate a sunscope to look like you have armor on, but it doesn't change to what your character wears.

    I might look into making a mod that adds textures that look like scales on your dragon when you equip said scale, but I'm not sure how to make it detect said equip.
