I like this idea!
It's good for crafting. Maybe, you could use deathclaw hide to make deathclaw armor? 2 deathclaw hides and 15 fibers. This armor is better than Brotherhood armor, but worst than Power armor. This is great idea

I like it too, but i think its bad idea to use them for armors.
Maybe you can make Cave from them, cave with workbench and mining pool, or big tent with workbench.
Another good idea is use this hide like armor, if you wear it, you will change your skin to deathclaw,.
And vedaras IDK why are you so bad on people with good ideas, just try to think about it ,its rly good idea.
