#armor reference

[postcardsfromheapside]

I really just love some of the armors in this game, even if there are things I wish we could customize. They look cosplayable if you wanted to. But also just the details they put in are so neat, and layered, and the textures are so nice.

These are from the Shadow's Hold armor.

Bonus: a patootie who knows he's a cutie

I put him back in his Hawke armor, I just had to try this out and get pictures. I *love* those fingerless gloves/bracers, and I bet that shirt is amazing underneath there.

Historical influences for Obi-Wan’s armor is a mix of the typical Western European under armor and clothing layers,such as the Jedi surcoat (which would be in his typical beige and cream color palette) with 13th century Rus armor.

And a more northern proto-Rus helmet although there’s archeological evidence of more Norse looking helmets with those heavy avantails which I think would also really work for Obi-Wan’s look. But the Rus armor had a lot of those Scandinavian influences mixed later with Eastern European armors and so I think a legitimate Rus or a later Norse helmet works as an influence.

I really enjoy this artist’s (じゅん) clothing/armor designs. I have a an entire folder of their illustrations in my research notes.
