However, I have a tiny little complaint. Boob armour makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. It's obviously not your fault this weird fetish is all over sci-fi and fantasy art, but frankly, a female in huge and heavy plate armour would not have boob casing (for example, remember how surprised we were when Samus Is A Girl happened?). You can still give something a feminine shape (narrow waist, so on), even a slightly portruding chest area, without unreasonably and illogically creating metal boobs. And frankly, with all the rigorous physical training they undergo, I am not sure the Sisters would have anything more than cup As. Boobs are fat, you know.
Glad that you liked the work so far. This piece has changed so much since this stage, I almost changed everything about it (no not the boob armor, that still there
As for the boob armor, I totally agree with you, at first it didnt really matter to me if a character wears a boob armor or fighting armies with bikini armor, but now everything changed. I think I am leaning towards more realistic take from reality into fantasy and sci-fi. I do understand why the boob armor is there in the first place but I want to change this in the future.
As for boob armour, my main issue with it is not "blah blah disrespect towards women, objectification, blah". I mean, have they seen space marines? They are even more gender-stereotypical in their physique and their masculinity is exploited to ridiculous levels. Which is all sort of fine, and to be expected in this sort of subculture.
My issue is that I just don't buy it, on a WAAAGH level. You know, your thin, molten, shapely boob plate will not stop these damn bullets, lady. In a fandom where we are here mostly for the "there is only war" part, the "war" part has to work on a believable level. Boobs are secondary to pew pew pew pew pew pew pew BOOM.
Anyway, you're a great artist. I'll watch out for your next attempts.
oh this painting is giving me nightmares ... I cant seem to finish it
