Description

I really took my time with these designs, stopping to look up anatomy and reference whenever I had any reservations about stuff and paying attention to body types and all that instead of my usual ... "fudge it" when I'm hurrying to get something done.

left=>right
Weston - went less ninja-y on him. Now he really is a rogue with no ninja class skills at all. Feels like I went full circle with this guy. His outfit isnt too different from the most recent iteration other than being a better thought out design. The biggest difference would be the leather jerkin I guess, because armor.
Caelyn/Cairne - moved his leather chestpiece under the cleric's robe. Also, now he has hipster hair. It's shaved on the bottom of his head. I "finalized" the trim design too; something meaningless and easy to draw XD
Franky - not a re-design. She will *spoiler* eventually buy pants through the course of the story. And yes, she is supposed to be impossibly shaped.
Auriel - ... :[ I tried to redraw the last vers of her armor and ... nope. Can't do it. Well, can't do it easily. It's just too overly ornate. So when in doubt, go back to the basics and take away all the grand, rpg trimming and build from there. Except then I didnt have to build because I liked the armor based more on real suits of armor. Auriel will sometimes remove the hip tassets I guess. The shield guige .... there is surprisingly little reference for how it should be placed and how the shield sits on you slung on the back, and how it sits on you when the shield is in use. Maybe I should make a cardboard cut out with some string and experiment with it. Anyway, Auriel's guige is detachable, because she Cpt America's her shield around at times.

Gotta admit, thinking about how the physics of a kite shield would handle being thrown like a frisbee is interesting. Not that the Cpts version is any less odd in that respect, given it seems to act more like a boomerang than a flying disk. XD
