Charr Armour Challenge! (Art)
I don’t have a good hand with my graphic tablet, or else I would put a decent design on :/
I guess I’ll have to take a picture, though I don’t know how good looking it would result, but I have a couple of ideas in mind, don’t worry my friend.
Maybe I will some day. Been busy lol.
Great thread idea, looking forward to what everyone comes up with
Here comes my first armour sketch…. The quality is quite low-res but I Think u get the Picture. It’s a tribal inspired armour.
Charr have a tricky body to build armour around so I can totally see the challenge the Devs have here.
It’s made out of griffon feathers and leather/fur patches and leather straps.
As a shoulder protection (asymetrical) there is a turtle Shell. The helm/mask is made out of a big skull, decorated with feathers ans 2 silk bands on one side. There is a necklace that belongs to the chest peiece that is made out of claws and a crystal feather (holds the magic stats perhaps).
The gloves and shoes are very simple. Fur patches atatched with leather strings and the gloves are decorated with feathers. as are the “sleeves” that belong to the chest armour apart from the lower part on left arm that acts as protection from Arrows. Evan the tail have got some decoration here. There is also some warpaint/bodypaint here.
Plz be honest and say what u Think:)
I will soon make a similar sketch with a view from the back.
That looks similar to some of the Gw1 charr armours, Frostfang. I think it really fits the charr aesthetic.
Yeah, I think it’s pretty accurate to something the Charr would wear when their society was more tribal.
I prefer armour designs that are open enough to actually let you see the fur pattern like that. And I really like the little tie on the tail.

Looking good! Nicely done. I will have to draw onenow.
Raeminds a Little bit of the Aetherblade style… a Little bit more bike-ish perhaps.
Nice chest! Really like that detail
Another update lol
Holy crap. that’s a bamf charr. I’d call it something like a Mecha-charr. it does have a robotic-looking quality to it
Now that I’m looking at it, his legs seem way too long. Use your imagination to make them shorter lol.
That helmet is superb
keep the good work!
Looks like the Clockwork version of a Charr… Cannot see any fur anywhere…. Awsome piece of art but not my choise of armour. Simply a bit too hight Tech;)
Here comes the back of my Tribal armour (preferribly Medium armour). This is the same one as above but wothout the helm. The turtle Shell (shoulder piece) is only on one side (right). Oh, I forgot the warpaint on this one too. Well, the back is covered with a griffo hide, and the tail area is covered with large feathers. That tail tip also have a set of small feathers. Perhaps there could be 2 silk bands here too.
The Lower arm protection is also assymetrical. On the right lower arm the whole arm id pretty much uncovered (see the front Picture). The neck will be left uncovered to leave room for fancy manes. Same thing goes for the back. No spiky things there that will mess with back pieces, Only a hide.
Nice, i like the fur cape. I figured i’d go high tech to fit my main who is a malgamation of as iron legion looking as possible to match his warriorness and support of the legion. I was debating on what to draw that would appeal to people and you posted yours and i decided to go in the opposite direction hehe. I’m digging it though
You used to not be able to see any fur on my Charr, but they recently changed the SE breastplate and now you can see his neck

Interesting to see the concepts going so totally different ways here:P I like creativity!
Henge.. When is A-net hiring you to draw their Charr armor sets?
Looks like a predator version of a Charr. I love it.

Hehe no clue. I’m taking classes to become a QA tester (a good one) maybe I’ll migrate to Anet
Update of the drawing. Going slowly lol
That’s so awesome looking! Quite machine-like and fitting for the charr. I want it in game now lol
@Frostfang, I LOVE that mask, looks quite Egyptian. Reminds me of the horus-like characters from the stargate sg1 movie
