Description I didn't forget to do a REDesign in December...I just didn't post it here on DeviantArt until now.  It's been sitting on Patreon since December 30th though.

Her gun arm is based on a 16th century Japanese swivel breech-loading gun you can see here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rifled_b…

I hope you're all pleased with how it turned out - especially you, Sayis5 , who suggested it. : )

If you would like to make a suggestion for my next REDesign, please visit my current journal.  Thank you for your interest either way! : )

Supercool.  They should totally make a metroid game with Samus in this armor. :3

I'm glad you posted it ^^ It's one of my favourite among the redesigns and monthlies :3

Well thank you for ever indulging in my ideas x3 Oh oh, that reminds me. You could do a Zelda-Warhammer 40,000 crossover, by mixing up the armour styles :3 Like Link in an Aspect Warrior outfit (probably a Striking Scorpion ?) or Zelda as a Farseer ! Or possibly Ganondorf as a Primarch, like Horus x3 Anyway what do you think?

Hmm.. That could be interesting... They have very detailed costumes..

I'm still waiting until the 17th of February to decide on the next one (have a couple of other interesting ideas posted so far, too), but could you copy and paste your suggestion into my journal here: mandarinswift.deviantart.com/j… - I'll be taking them in my journals from now on so if I do pick yours and you don't post it there, it may upset people who did. ^ ^;

(And note me about how you've been, too!  It's been too long! : ) )

I would have called it Samuraimus XD

Heh, you're right - that -does- sound good. X )

Cicala-Kid In reply to MandarinSwift [2016-01-26 22:00:55 +0000 UTC]

Just to write down my stupidity I forgot to say that I like it XD

On a side note, using the green visor as a maedate could also have been nice but probably would have ruined the traditional style, right?
(too many kabutos lately in my head)

Heh - well thank you then! (No worries - I've done things like that before, too. ^ ^; )

I know what you mean - actually, TheeForsakenOne suggested something very similar before, too, when I first posted this elsewhere - It's a really great idea, but after spending so much time on her face, I admittedly kind of didn't want to cover it. ^ ^;  (And you're right - if it was left sheer, it wouldn't really feel traditional..)

My husband also thought a sashimono with the screw attack symbol on it would be cool - kind of wish he'd though of that before I finished and posted it though. ^ ^;

Thank you for the comments and thoughts! : )
