Description
These are gonna be flooding in from all over for a while so I figured I'd throw my hat in the ring. The big one on the left is an edited tracing (obviously) but once I did that it made drawing her for real (the three on the right) much easier, so yay tracingThe idea for the design was to incorporate as many elements from Peridot's experiences on Earth, such as her now iconic shorts, flames on her shoes (they make everything cooler), a modern, somewhat sporty look (a'la Amethyst), and gauntlets (from coming to understand and appreciate Garnet).
People might ask why I 'copped out' on her star by keeping the diamond - that was intentional; not because I think she's still holding out hope for Home-world (at least I hope not) but because I think she's just that stubborn.
My brothers and I were brainstorming ideas for what her weapon might be and nothing really seemed to work aside from her initial ones (that were part of her extensions) so I decided to bring them back, modified to look more like Garnet's fists. My head-canon is that there was more than enough modern gem-tech from the hand-ship they came to Earth in lying around Amethyst's room (how else did they get rid of it?) for her to make them. So her 'weapon' would be the various hard-light constructs she can project from them, such as shields, blades (that she can fire) as well as a portable-computer.
The general idea is tech-wizard/berserker, the 'flames' were originally going to be white but it made her look WAY too much like the Green Ranger (though I guess she kinda is

I was thinking that:
Lapis has Wings
Peridot has (or had) Limb enhancers (rebuilt into a gun)
Combine them together and maybe you'd get a pair of Ice Skating boots

And she'd make her own ice to skate around on, I presume? Sounds pretty neat

Indeed, she breaths ice from her breath
And she kinda acts like a ballerina on ice

Very good design! It's so cute! But I guess she would have to get poofed to get new clothes. So her hair is the star?
I love how it makes her look more rugged. She's not in the safety of HW gems now, so it works.

You know I was wondering that myself: do you HAVE to get poofed to just change your everyday appearance? We know from Amethyst's episode where they were chasing that monster in her room and from Steven's birthday in the lastest bomb that a form can be "unsustainable", but what's the 'threshold'? I'm thinking about when the Crystal Gems put on beach-wear; is that also unsustainable? Would they be in 'pain' the longer they tried to stay dressed that way? Or what about when Amethyst turns into a wrestler or a cat? When Steven turned his fingers into cats HIS obstacle was actually trying to change them BACK But if course he's different from other gems...
Soooo many questions
...but glad you like the outfit

This design is well done! It makes me wonder even more of what her weapon might be in the show (since it has not been revealed yet).

She's so edgy... I love it! And energy creation gauntlets would be an excellent weapon for her, she isn't strong enough to do real damage with the weapons but it's adaptability would make sure she doesn't get in the way.

She could also make a new mech-suit and do most of her 'real' fighting in that. But yeah; a versatile 'omni-tool' makes sure that she's not completely helpless if caught outside of it or without the other gems to back her up.

Maybe the Diamond symbol isn't because she's clinging to hope for Homeworld but rather because she's clinging to the hope that she's still worth something despite being from Homeworld; the whole "Maybe I can be the good thing that comes out of that horrible place" kind of thing. And maybe the Crystal Gems will be able to start enacting change on Homeworld once they get the Diamonds and their ilk out of the way.

I do that. I've always been introspective and it shows sometimes. It also would parallel Amethyst's character journey in a way.
