I'm a girl as well, at that.. Our sex is entirely irrelevent here, especially for armor designs. If anything my designs are no more revealing than current armors in game, so if those offend you/other people(s) as well, then I don't really see that as my problem. (As I shouldn't - cause it isn't.)

Lawnmower those armors are from other game and TV show characters. I dont think they will ever make it into GW.

A brain fart I just had (it's 1:30am lol): I think a cool theme to try out would be Aeon armour. My inspiration came from Final Fantasy 10 after I thought about the Aeons and how their looks could be converted into very nice styles of armour, in particular Bahamut, because of the details and style of him. If anything, the concept name sounds good. Could someone maybe try this out and post some results? It's interesting idea I think.
Good work everyone by the way, some AMAZING works in here, keep up the great work!

Ok, I realize that everyone has been knocking your designs a bunch due to the skimpyness of some of the garments, but haven't really been giving you any suggestions on what might be more generally acceptable. Since few other people appear to be giving much advice on the matter, I'd like to make a few suggestions so please don't take offense.

In general, all the current revealing armor types (scar pattern, tatoo, 15k bonelace, 15k druids, 15k gladiators, etc.) seem to share at least three things in common. First, all these armor types seem to cover all the areas that a normal bikini would, for the most part. Second, none of these "critical" areas have any transparency. Third, all of these areas are covered by a garment guaranteed to stay in place (even 15k druids armor has a diaper-like thing under the loincloth).

Now, if you don't mind, I'd like to go over some more specific suggestions relating to your two most talked about submissions:

Just two adjustments to the leggings would most likely make this more acceptable to the general public:
1 - Increase the width of the loincloth by about 3 or 4 times.
2 - Add some sort of solid-state garment under the loincloth so that it doesn't appear a light breeze could come by and allow the entire party to bask in all her glory.

This is the one that I think most people are concerned with. Again, just two alterations would most likely move this into higher favor:

1 - On the chest piece, expand the opaque nodes to cover at least the nipples (allready taken care of) and below on each breast.
2 - On the leggings, expand the center piece to cover the entire groin reigon and not just the "goodies".

I realize that what is acceptable is a highly subjective matter, but when creating concepts that may be exposed to the masses in a commercial product, it is best to err on the slightly more conservative side. Don't get me wrong, though, they are good concepts. With just a little revision, I wouldn't be supprised to come across these or something like them in Nightfall and future chapters.

Best of luck and keep up the good work.

I think I am sexy too.. uh.. I mean.. My stuff are sexy too.....

-------------------------------------------------

Anyhow.. got bore.. start random doodling... which lead to this...

Was first think of cleaning it up, but decide to keep th sketch look...

bulletsmile · Sep 17, 2006, 08:03 PM // 20:03

me try sketchy art style too, assassins should have something like this too, but guilwars has the more high-tech style of assassin armors, but still not high-tech weapons or skills^^

kaakaaboosh, shadow mist

when anet did not put this armor on factions

Jeff Highwind · Sep 18, 2006, 04:27 PM // 16:27

I can see a whole new line of Smiting spells just to match that skin.

Martian · Sep 18, 2006, 04:31 PM // 16:31

Impressive how you matched it so accurately to the screeny :d
I think it would be great if the leggings were made of the same material as the bit at the waste, rather than that reddish leather.

Soon.. I hope.

*revives thread* (woohoo)

I've got 2 more armours, one coloured, the other not.

^Can't colour this due to the lines. Don't ask about the lines... <_< >_> Anyways, posible armour for the assassin, or a new profession alltogether, hence why the lance is there. It's a cool sexyful lance. That you can poke people that you don't like with.

^Cute little paragon chibi with armour that has WINGS! Look, it's *soo* cute!

Also, I have a design for necro following AJ's "Cactus" theme, but it's still in my room somewhere. I inked it about an hour ago, and now it's dissappeared... I blame the gremlins.
/babble

EDIT: I'm also re-submitting this one, because I think it died. :O

well here I made a Dervish: enjoy

Halev you got your cute style, nice armor ideas^^

Killaya · Sep 24, 2006, 08:59 PM // 20:59

Finally finished this =] Worked on it for over 3 hours.

I call it Bonebender's Armor. It's for necromancers... obviously this is the female version ;D I may do the male version later if I'm not too lazy.

Red parts would be dyable.

actionjack · Sep 25, 2006, 01:01 AM // 01:01

I like the pencil work.. and the mountain in the back... bulletsmile

and great amor look too. (But should have more "Bling" hanging)

Good stuff Killaya.. that is alot of skulls

Halv is cute as always, just like her self.

gwen_on_a_plane · Sep 25, 2006, 03:21 AM // 03:21

woaaaa lots of great artist on here.....

actionjack · Sep 25, 2006, 05:50 AM // 05:50

I had a more detail sketch in pencil before.. but was unable to scanne it..
Anyhow, here its a quick digital sketch of it...

Its for the Ritualist

And a chibi one too

psychochris20 · Sep 26, 2006, 08:04 AM // 08:04

I'm sure that there are ton of these on here, Stargate type of things for armor. This is my idea for some new NightFall type armors, since that area is inspired by middle eastern and african cultures. Yup. I tried to have a solid egyptian type design while showing off as much skin as possible. Mission failed

Not as skimpy as i wanted but still a solid simple design. Maybe next time i'll make the bust bigger :P yeah I'll use a rit for a model next time. LOL! I imagine this armor would be most likely used by a mesmer. It's similair to the white mantle Savants I think that's what they are called. The elemental heat girls. I like Anubus, he's my favorite mythical god. I hope you all enjoy this,

FTW!

AJ, your Rit designs above remind me of hsen-ko from darkstalkers. where are her blades, retractible mallets, spiked balls, and panda bears LOL keep up the good work team!

NEAT! it looks like a cross between Rit, Mes, and and skulls added just to keep it nerco. I like how she has that "I'm a big bad ass babe" look on her face as she brushes her hair.

BOOM! headshot!

Kitharin · Sep 26, 2006, 03:25 PM // 15:25

I'm liking the idea of a sort of Viking theme.... maybe a bit Celtish to? I have a vage idea for a new Woad body-paint tatto/scar armour.... i'll have a crack at drawing it later...

Martian · Sep 26, 2006, 05:32 PM // 17:32

I bet ya anythin, if there is a 4th chapter, it'll be celtic/nordic.
Thats pretty much all thats left O.o
