Put on some clothes, thanks.

 

I’m not really one to do fantasy types of characters anymore, but I often get really frustrated that women in video games and similar media are mostly half naked and have to be sexy and have big tits in order to be a warrior, or whatever they are. I like my warrior women to wear whatever the hell a warrior man would wear. Jeez, put something on already.

Don’t get me wrong–I’m not against sexuality, but there is a time and a place, you know? Video games, anime, movies and the like just feel this need for women to be sex idols AT ALL TIMES, no excuses.

One of my more recent favorites as far as female characters go is Aveline from Dragon Age II. She’s built to be a tank, goes on to be captain of the guard, and actually wears some freaking body armor that doesn’t expose cleavage and midriffs. It’s pretty rad. Naturally, she isn’t obtainable to romance, while the “sexier” female characters are. Go figure.

 Oh my! I heard about this challenge from a friend and decided to give it a shot. I am a fan of character development and am really into creative processes.

I studied illustration and am just making a bunch of pictures lately to see what comes out of it.
