Description Another design for my sister,

Sometimes the trouble of having a great family is you have to do a ton of stuff for free for your siblings.
This time she wanted me to design her knight character, Ilyana. She's from a fantasy world so I decided to have a little fun and mix knight armor with some African styling.

It's always nice to draw a female in armor that's not sculpted around her boobs. Not every female's gotta be sexy, you know.

I love this! This is a really good design. Love the patterns you used. The only mini critique I can grant you is that the tones are a bit too close. Otherwise this is a solid character.

I agree with some of the comment here. You're on the right track. Ever thought of creating a story or comic strip with your designed armor or your sister's character. It would be a refreshing change of pace for these so-called "Armored Female Knights"

My sister's making the story so it'll definitely be used.
I'm glad you like this change of pace!

Amen for not having armor with cleavage space. I love this design, I really do. Functional, and lovely at the same time.

All females are beautiful but not all of them should be sexy; there's something refreshing like a woman like Ilyana who's beautiful because she accepts who she is and the body she has naturally.
