Knight’s Pledge, by Magali Villeneuve

I always really love seeing actually armored lady designs in Magic: The Gathering because their artists are often very good at what they do, so you get awesome things like this. What caught my eye with this one (after the composition and colors, like damn) is the interesting shapes and layering in the armor. All the little details, like the clasps and buttons holding everything in place adds a lot of realism that no amount of technique can make up for (as seen in Applibot games). I also just like turtlenecks.

We’ve featured the artist on the blog before, so check out their MtG portfolio, you will not be disappointed.
