Conceptualizing some things about Tia's battle armor, because I thought I should get some plating on my heroes before too long. I wanted limited plate armor for Tia specifically because her fighting style relies on her lithe abilities, being able to twist around her opponents, and dodging more than blocking. Still, it's important to protect the vitals and the arms. I think Tia would personally choose to eschew pauldrons or shoulder plating of any kind, to save weight and favor her free movement. The polished mask was made from a mold of her face, and fashioned to look fierce, even if it belies her battle nature somewhat. Tia's armor probably depicts the height of metalcraft available, and was commissioned by her father, Hebron the Wise.

I would love feedback as far as the style of armor, colours used, and criticisms for its feasibility.
