But I'm very pissed off that I don't have the white and dark knight dlc.
Hades helmet would be so much easier =(

You can sell very cheap to a "friend" right? Hehe

Lol XD Sadly, those pieces were given to us in the form of a code which is redeemable once ;) Even if I gave it to you, you'd still have no dark/white knight parts XD Anyway, you don't need 'em ;)

My favorite original's Sauldor. I love how you used the horns to make the branched antlers, and the feathers of strength really transform that dull helmet into a work of art. Also, I'm not sure if you thought of it this way before, but the design's overall balance is superb. That massive torso/waist armor is hard to use since it tends to overpower everything else. You balanced it out with the bulky shoulder armor and the horned helmet. He is somewhat grey looking, but that's forgivable since knights are more about functionality than fashion. Here's something you should consider. The first thing that struck me when I saw him was how much he resembled a TREE. Branched helmet, thorny armor, and root-like waist armor. You could try turning him into some kind of green knight or pagan warrior.
Nuria is also pretty damn cool. You pulled off the asymmetrical design tastefully by extending the archery breastplate into an elegant leather arm guard using the pocket stickers. The face make up is both intimidating and seductive, perfect for this hunter chick. The necklace also provides a nice accent to her mostly earth-tone palette. My only complaint is that the torso area is too pattern-heavy. I wouldn't put patterns side-by-side unless (1) one pattern is big and the other pattern is small or (2) when one or both patterns are extremely subtle.
This is top-tier work, Gauntlet. You're exceptionally skilled at special equipment usage. It probably wouldn't hurt to use some brighter colors every once in a while as accents (like what you did for Nuria's necklace). One pure white sash or red scarf can add a lot of personality to a design and break up the monochrome. Making a couple of female/non-armored creations can be good practice for this. That, and there seems to be a shortage of good female CaS's in the forums lately.

As always your reviews are well written and elaborate, and leave some room for open discussion and artistic debate.
This is what i like about your post and that of some other senior members here...thanks for supporting my disciple :)

Thank you guys, and sorry for not posting anything. The fact is that I'll graduate soon, so time is really short.
Brucedge, thanks very much for your critic, i'm really glad that you enjoy my work =)
I'll consider your negative points, espeacially on Nuria's breastplate. About Sauldor, the pagan warrior idea is good but don't fit in my perspective, I'll try to recolor it using your sugestion of green.
By the way, since I'm here let me show you my new CaS

I feel there's something missing in him. I can't say what, but it looks cool right now.

I feel the same way, I'll try to find what it is.

An extremely promising CaS with a ton of personality! Just needs a bit of tweaking. As far as I can tell, in your head you have the image of a mystical entity so powerful that he's radiating vorpal flames of awesomeness while illuminating the world by the glorious light of his all-seeing eyes. Sound about right? Asura's are Japanese, so the hip equipment (warrior's belt) and the feet equipment (ruffian boots) look out of place. I'd replacement them with something similar but more samurai-esque. Anyways, the raven wing stickers do a wonderful job of emulating those vorpal flames, so I'd apply a giant one to his torso. You'll probably need to recolor all the trimming on your armor gold too so that the gold-brown is more evenly distributed throughout the body. Finally, while the arrow pattern is cool and traditional Jap, it seems somewhat mundane on your uber-oni. I'd either sticker up the pants or put on a godlier pattern. Finally, for any metal surface that looks kinda plain, I'll slap on a leather pattern, which really dents up armor nicely (see my tribal priestess for example. I liked your original concept so much that I actually constructed a version myself, but of course, I won't post it until you've finished your own version and given me permission to leech off you.

Ashura complete version is pretty solid, really cool and fresh set really.
I would like to see your hand at more delicate CaS, like a lady. Anyway great work.

"I like your passion - show me what you can !"
very interesting one that Ashura...still not 100 sold on the colors but he oozes charisma...old men usually impress in SC5 and i have done my share...
for now, it is a "wo.!", you'll have to do something even better to get a "wow!" from me, but you are on the right path, padawan :)
