This was conceived as half of a diptych. This one would be the glamorous "official" portrait of a warrioress displaying her latest victory. The other half would be the REAL image-- Victoria is really banged up, about a half dozen injured or dead flunkies are in the background, the chimera is just riddled with wounds and protruding weapons, and the forest is on fire. I still have to do the second half. I think it'll be called "Victoria's Secret". I get really miffed at all the immaculately clean warriors and barbarianettes. Hell, even Frazetta's Conan in the middle of battle looks like he just stepped off the stage at Chippendale's! The armor is more of the practical stuff I tend to equip my ladies with. Ever read Frankowski's "Conrad Stargard" time traveling Medieval fantasy series? He brought up a good point about mass produced armor. Rather than build custom-made exoskeletons for each warrior, make a series of standardized plates and pieces which then are attached to a canvas jumpsuit.
