Still need to catch up with the latest update, but I finally got together a design for my Commander, my MC from The Exile.
Here she is, Blythe Azrael, 7 ft tall goddess (WIP)
To check out additional looks/closeups and what aesthetic I latched onto, as well as her hairstyles, consider going beyond the readmore!
Given the reflective mirror thing going on in the armour description I chose, I immediately latched onto Slavic Medieval armour.
The multiple plate/scale type layers of their armour seemed perfect.
I also thought that kinda style would work well with the deer helmet and wings attributed to my character.
Wings I have yet to design, but will work on asap.
Here’s some more looks at the armour and helmet design, super rough sketches (especially for the chainmail) that I will neaten up to ink in the final piece.
Fun fact, that 7ft tall is without her horns. With them and armour/boots, she’s pushing 7"5.
Take a look first at her creepy battle smile:
Here’s a closeup of the deer helmet and the attached chainmail hood:

Her casual hairstyle:
And finally her battle style, pulled back in a flattened bun at the back of her head:
