Okay, RGUS, here's your "climpse".
As you can see, still at the preliminary stage! The left half is as good as missing.
This will be the short bodice/full cup variant. I've already prepared the short bodice/low cup version (for those warrioresses that wish to poke out their opponents' eyes but still would like some support in that area), and of course, the cups are separate objects that can be detached. Got a reputation, you know.
The long bodice version will have the same upper parts, but the belt that's circling the lower ribs will be exchanged for a full corset style bodice covering the entire abdomen.
The shoulder harness is one of three styles I'm planning for the initial release. The other ones consists of simle shoulder straps, and fully strapless.
THere's an awesome lot of detail in the model already. For example, those belt holes are actually holes, not just areas occluded by the belt hole fittings. All edges are double sided, and the stitchings are engraved in the mesh.
There's a buckle and strap at the back too, connecting the shoulder pad to the back of the bodice. The bodice laces at the back,
I haven't started on the skirt yet, I want to finish modeling the bodices first. But there will be a skirt consisting of straps (like those Roman armor skirts), one consisting of studded leather scales, short and long versions of both. Ability to turn off front straps/scales, side straps/scales and back straps/scales will be included. Optional hip plates, probably a couple of different styles.
And for completeness the package will be augmented with bracers and greaves or boots (haven't decided between those yet).
Addon packages will consist of new shoulder harnesses, like one with a collar and chains, different cups (full metal, mesh metal, chains), different abdomen styles (mesh metal, chains), new skirts (also mesh and chain), and probably a couple of matching weapons packs, including scabbards, baldrics, swordbelts, weapons harnesses, the whole kaboodle.
The pen is mightier than the sword. But if you literally want to have some impact, use a typewriter
