Oh ok. :P I think you should do brown cloth, with iron plates on top.

I'd say a mix between organic looking plate-mail, cloth and fur. I have question though - what exactly is the pose for the Warden going to be? He looks like he's in a bit of a relaxed pose, but the Gothic Axe seems to say it's more action oriented. Not quite entirely sure what's going on with him.

My idea was that he's trying to attack, but he's stuck in the (magical) grip of the mesmer. He is now floating in the air (because thats what mesmers do to you) and he's trying to reach out but the grip keeps him at his place.

I agree with Infested, iron plates would go lovely with the Warden

that's coming on really nice! I'm gonna go with Charlie's suggestion, I think something organic-looking would be good. And whenever there's fur, I'm up for it

Would be a real shame to cover up all the detailed work you put into the warden's body. I think a single pauldron with a dark leather strap, similar to the scale plate bracers, would look awesome.

Thanks all! I like the idea of adding some dirty fur/animal pelt, combined with some tatters and metal plating (I really like the little metal squares connected to each other like on Charlies warrior. Might do something like that).

Next week I got my last exams of the year, and then vacation! So just need to study hard this week, don't expect any progress

PS. Great to see you stopping by again Trish, also epic avatar <3

Bleh I had to draw Started doodling and came to this. Don't know really, was going for a mermaid, but turned out into a bikini girl with shells in her fair and floating fish. No refs used so far, lets see if I can keep that up. Trying out a bit new colors.

She's so pretty! I have to say, I LOVE the way you color. It's so realistic, but still painterly.
Looking forward to seeing it finished! The hair looks like it's going to be really cool.

I love her face. But I might be biased towards red hair and freckles, so yeah

Her body looks a bit awkward, though. I really can't articulate what looks off about it, but I think it's mostly to do with the shoulders.

Now that you mention it, it does look like one breast (her left) is noticeably lower than the other one even though the rest of her left side looks like it's angling up. It could just be that I'm bad at grasping perspective, though.

looks lovely, great colours and love the shading in her face! her left breast looks like it is where it should be, but the other one is too high up and looks about 1/3rd smaller than the other one..

thats so awesome tommy, especially if you didn't use a reference! The face looks amazing ^^

I think what looks off is that her shoulders are a little to broad in comparison with the body. Size wise, the torsoswidth at the top is the width of the waist, and then on top of that the shoulders extend out. Which gives a bit of an upside down triangle-y shape.
If that made sense

Tommy I think I have a new favorite ^^. She looks lovely, the only thing I can say is that the angle of the chest is a little off. And one of her iris seems slightly larger than the other, but other than that she looks very beautiful!

Looks great, I think you should lower her right breast and smoothen out her shoulders a bit more. Ithink they look too straight at the moment.

Wow, that's just... wow. I know some might disagree with me but you could still turn the bikini into something with pearls, shell & moss hehe. I think she would look amazing as a mermaid like your initial sketch! Or just take off the bikini lol! Anyway the colors are wonderful. I love her face and well... I'm biased towards redheads aswell hehe. Love it.

*cough* natural breasts usually are different sizes, I like it lol.
