Description
Here's the finished drawing!

Consider it a sort of sequel to "Gothic War-Maiden"; the soldier is settling down after a long day on campaign.

She seems to have gotten pretty well-received with my HEMA friends, and the character has sort of grown on me, so I will most likely incorporate her into the cast of Albatross.

(She's still unnamed though. )

Her armor is a combination of two surviving High-Gothic German harnesses (suits of armor) from around 1500. The bevor and sallet are heavily-based on a surviving set that belonged to Emperor Maximillian I, and the rest is heavily-based on a custom reproduction of a harness originally-worn by Arch Duke Sigismund of Tyrol.

As usual, medium used was a 0.05 HB mechanical pencil (it's convenient) and the occasional blending stump
