Pluto and Charon How cold it is out there,
my love, how lonely,
‘midst those icy stars,
where the sun is hardly more
than a memory,
faintly pulsing.
 
But Pluto and Charon see
only each other.
In the airless void,
they breathe each other.
They clasp hands and
twirl madly around,
over and
under and
right through the stately realm of
frigid Neptune, then
fly back out
into the cold, black void.
 
But they feel no chill,
out there in the frozen deeps;
they feel no fear,
for each holds the other
in a loving embrace,
as they dance their eternal dance,
each one ever beholding
the other’s face.

Yes, I design clothes for my Perfect World characters.

Yes, I am a nerd.

I'm sorry, but the game's armor for female archers SUCKS. Basically a leather and metal bra, miniskirt, and boots with tall stiletto heels. Entirely appropriate. If you're a hooker.

So here's some armor actually designed with battle in mind. I won't try to fool myself or anyone else by saying that it's 100% practical, but I'd certainly rather wear this than the armor provided by the game.

I'd love it if you would tell me which color scheme you like best!

I like two and six best. :D

Good armor/clothing design! I like the details and it looks (not sure if it really would be, though) practical and comfortable. :)

Fantasy game armor is usually really impractical in every regard. For girls they usually look like battle-strippers and guys are usually loaded down with excess spikes and horns, often times with their midriff exposed. Actually, the only recent example I can recall of a game with somewhat believable armor in a fantasy game is the "Monster Hunter" franchise, but that steps into "form over function" territory from time to time.

Not a bad design, don't be afraid to play around with some shading to give the armor a bit of texture (for example, which parts are shiny metals, which are more matte-finish or textured cloth/leather. For 3D game specularity and bump mapping are an important part of the design.

So, is there a color scheme you like best?

They all tend to have a primarily earthy or orange color scheme. I like a few of them, but each for different reasons. #1 has a good variety of both light and dark values, as well as saturated and desaturated hues. #3 has a good analogous color scheme, which is better for quickly recognizing the character as long as the environment doesn't match. #4 is your strongest color scheme, with complimentary blues and oranges. #6 has a good dark theme going, but it needs some variety in the textures or perhaps a few accents of color to pop the character's features for animation and identification.

Shading? Ha! I laugh in the face of shading! No, seriously, I hate shading. Thanks for the comments, though.
