This is my second submission for the contest. For this entry, I wanted to create a look that feels both powerful and elegant, with a somewhat feminine aura in its design, like a high fantasy royal guard. I designed a full suit of armor with a sleek, polished finish, mixing chrome and gold tones with striking reddish accents on the chest and legs, which contribute to the slightly female-ish feel. The real showstopper is the wings. I went with a classic feathered look, but they're actually made of colored metal, giving them a huge, dramatic scale and an almost iridescent quality that catches the light in a mix of purples, golds, and deep reds, further enhancing the somewhat feminine color palette. The goal was to create something that feels very regal and powerful, like an armored guardian with a subtly female-ish form and color scheme, stepping out of a painting.
