UPDATED! with a nice overview of the final design I am going for in her armor. She is still missing the metal / leather flaps around her hips. I will be adding them later and I am going to work on a color study next. Enjoy
TO WAR!!!
The Frozen Warrior Izolde
The basic story behind this character is an Immortal warrior. No longer among the living, she has long forgotten the sensation of warmth. Cold and heartless she stalks the Gateways of her world killing all who might threated the realm. She is one of its Guardians in a war that has lasted longer then any living memory.
Clad in Ancient armor, it grants immortality and an impenetrable defense. For whomever wears it becomes the winter, their flesh turning to ice possessing a hardness that of diamonds. It grants her limitless strength and agility but at the cost of her humanity. Sleep is a thing of memory and with the ages even that has started to fade. She is empty now, cold with a single purpose. Defending her realm with a Massive possessed blade that no mere mortal can carry.
She has Slain thousands with no end to the madness.
She is empty now.
So yeah my main goal for her is to make a drop dead sexy female warrior clad in evil epic armor. Her weapons is bigger then she stands tall which makes it a character in itself so this should be fun. I also hint at more delicate details making parts of the armor look more like lingerie mixed in with over the top shoulder pads and hip decorations.
Should be fun to do. every army needs a sexy warrior.
This is one of the first sketches I did giving a general overview. I am working on my final master ones now since you can see in the following images that the designs gets refined a lot more. Still need to detail the Guantlets and Shoulderpads more in additional drawings but I got distracted by sexy booty and lingerie.
First batch of possible weapons designs of which there will be many more.
Quick Sketch of her without all the distracting armor.
And here we go with some more final designs for the lingerie.
And some quick doodles that started it all. I got her body shape pretty much in the first doodle and rolled with it.
OK well back to work I go. ENJOY!! and good luck to everyone in the war.

i love the polycount symbol ha~
And no need to stuff a sammich down her gullet, either, like some videogame "sexy chicks"!
weapons are looking fantastic too btw (greentooth pommel ftw)
I might suggest that the face be taken back a bit. As of now she seems to have some cute or sexy features. Sexy could be fine, but if your going for more of a cold woman, maybe incorporate some sharper and harder features...perhaps an elongated slit-like eye shape, a small stern mouth, a sharp nose, sharper jawline? Just some thoughts to help bring out her frigid features.
Nice work, this should turn out quite nice.
I have to agree with richkid on the boobs, reduce them a bit they look like they're ready to flop around and do some damage. She can be a sexy badass without having to worry about wardrobe malfunctions.
And Arix is right about her face, though I think the biggest problem is the eyes. They're too emotive for an icy character. She isn't going to be looking at you like she wants to do unmentionable things to you if she can't feel it. I think you were closer with the expression in the first drawing.
I'm pretty happy with the design of her helmet for now. We'll see if I still like it once its all together with the rest of the pieces.
Enjoy.
I like the overall design of the armor, but my favorite concept is the weapons one(1st and 4th are great). I'm sure the model will look great.
Anyway, I will keep an eye on this thread.
Enjoy. Time for some sleep
im loving everything about this character
Here is a small update before I get lost making the armor pieces and weapon. Still need to add some more muscle definition in the base mesh when I take her into Zbrush. Keep you posted.
Enjoy
