I love that coat!!!!! Great color/style choice!
Love that this guy is short. I'm a bit sick of tall/skinny ppl.

I would suggest adding more detail in his boot and maybe his arms are slightly too short. they prolly need to be a few inches closer to his knees

If you dont win the contest (no offense) are you allowed to reuse any portion of that concept? if so you should definitly build up OC's based on that uniform.

Haha, thanks, Ms. Clark!! You're so kind! This is more of a collaboration than a contest, and I have no idea if I can or can't use any portion of the concept.

Well IDK if you can use that actual character in your other work, but that outfit is very cool for military.

I saw some of the other concepts- I dont think you'd have an issue using the character as is as long as he gets a new name and has diff credentials.

Thanks, although it would be a stronger design if I took the more practical route. One can always argue "they're going to war, not a fashion show!!" haha

Idk, i''ve noticed in many anchient cultures they get all 'dolled up" so to speak when they get ready for war. Details in armor, daggers, even the bow-n-arrow is astounding. cultures have always put alot of meaning into their war gear.

Tongman In reply to mzclark [2010-07-20 19:42:00 +0000 UTC]

Yea, you're right about that. I guess it's only more recent that practicality has weighed heavier than aesthetics. Good point.
