Man.... this was incredibly tough to design. D:



Not only did the armor have to look "Saint-ly" but it had to make sense. I had to keep in mind that these guys need a larger range of motion that traditional knights so I had to make some "cuts" in the armor for better articulation of the limbs and torso. Major props to armor smiths/designers out there that do this stuff in real life... my lord!



I painted each piece separately [e.g. arms, legs, waist, chest, sholders x2, and helmet] and it took around 4-6 hours each piece. Most of it was mainly trial and error for the designs of each.
