Description This is my entry for this contest: [link]
by and

I designed a Sythanguards uniform.
To Explain my design:
The whole concept is about maximum protection in spite of movability and speed.

The helmet; is made from Carbon fibre boosted with kevlar. Due to such is light weight and fitting.

Shoulder- and breastplate: Are made from the same material, and fit pefectly to the body structure and hinges.

The Fabricundercoat: made from silk due to its ability to stop bullets, regulate temperatur and being very light.

The Stabsword (I know what stabbing means): Good for distance and close fights. Can be parted in four segments for hitting and choking.

Armplates: Material same as above. The plates are sharpened at the end to break free from holds from behind.

The Overcoat: Is made from leather lined with silk. Hides the breastplates and other armour and weaks knife and hit-attacks.
Irritates the enemy during the fights. Additional pockets hidden inside. The Belt shows where the Guard is stationed by it's colour.

The Throusers: made from leather. Those are wide to hide extra armouringplates on the legs. Two armourplates on the thights (back and front).

Boots: Made from heavy leather, with implated knee-,shank and frontcap-plates. Secure move ability due to their heavyness. are tied on the back.

That does it^^ I hope you like it and the colours aren't too bright^^

Thank you!

Mhhh, your entry looks less futuristic as the others! :3
It's great you also named specific materials, because I find this an important point I am still not sure about, either.

And no, the colours are not too bright, they are rather classic, which I like!

More detailed critique will follow after judging time!^^

Thx.
I am afraid I am not capable of drawing futuristic designs but the material is XD
the Idea was what I would like to wear if I was a guard and after I've read your description it just flopped into my mind^^
Good, I was afraid that they might have been to bright.
mhhh can't wait to see the other entries YAY

Thats a pretty cool armor design.
the tabard is a good way to show he is an Imperial/Royal guard.
