My first attempt at designing armor! :D Olivier Rousteing and Ricardo Tisci are awesome. :love:

Name sounded cool for a few seconds before I typed it. Now I'm thinking it's stupid... Anyway, this is a rough sketch of Ophelia's armor after Morrigan left. It's like... Darker. Which could imply a few things...?

I always liked the design of light/fitted armor more. Bulky armor is, in most occasions, ugly to my eyes. And it makes sense I like DC heroes' outfits more. I like the clean look and capes.

PS. Sorry to those that expected other art! I'm currently selfish atm and want to develop my OC. And... I need more inspiration to finish outlining that sequel. D:<

PPS. WOOT! OBAMA!!! Just thought I'd add that. XD

I'm really liking this! It's lightweight, like you said, and makes me think of quilted gambesons and fencing doublets. 

The perfect weapon to go with armor like this would be a shashka, or something similar. Maybe a rapier or smallsword.  Lightning fast, turning easily in the hand, able to dart out like a snake and strike a death of a thousand cuts.

Me likey XD

Definitely gonna save this.
