just for fun, in regards to my old trans gyro theory i wanted to revisit it a little and add on a bit to my original theory, as well as add my own theory on a new trans hc i found (aka involving my sweet boy panch)
Well, When I heard that old Disney movie had a inspired series called “The legend of the three Caballeros” I started looking for information about it, without expecting that I would find it and watch all the 13 chapters that make up the first season, and well…I like it; It has some very strange details or details that could be improved, but there were many interesting elements that made me watch it until the end and wait for a second season
The reason of my pic are that while I was watching this show there was something that caught my attention, I realized that the armors of the characters did not quite match the countries they represent, so… I set myself the challenge of redesigning the armors mixing the original elements of the series with the country the character represents and was very fun to do it!!
- Let’s start with Donald Duck,his armor it seems to be inspired by the Spanish arquebusiers of the 15th to the 16th centuries, since he represents USA and English modern born in England, I had to put on his armor more of the old european medieval features and well…only that xD;; , and a longest/sharpest sword because in the series his sword is too short for my taste…btw if you see that Donald looks strange, please forgive me, Donald duck is a character that ALWAYS is a pain in my head, he is to hard to draw for me, I hope that at least I have draw him decent.
- Then there’s José Carioca, the brazilian green parrot was the hardest in re-desing, because his armor was quite difficult to locate, the closest thing I found similar to his armor in the series was of the Saladin warriors of the 12th century in the middle east…so I mix it with ornaments, tattoos and Brazilian indigenous elements ( I take inspiration of the people more closest to the Amazonas river), and I really like the final result…and also, get amazed with thise strange “hats” with bird feathers and collars with fangs included, they look amazing!, I love tribal stuff.
- And finally, PanchitoQuintero González (I will not put his full name, is super long ) ; He was the most fun to redesing for me (maybe because I’m mexican hahaha ) ; Well, his armor in the series is clearly based on a Roman centurion, I mixed his armor with Aztec features, especially in the helmet, in which I put a representation of Quetzalcoatl, I also add small silver buttons with a “aztec sun”, and also, and aztec bracelets.
