Description
A little while ago I drew a fairly regular looking Sister of Battle and in the process realised how ridiculous their armour really is. This stuff is supposed to be power armour and yet it's usually represented as little more than a form-fitting bodysuit with large shoulder pads and boob armour. Don't get me wrong, I do think the original design is cool as Hell but even by the standards of 40k, it can be a little silly.
So I set to the task of redesigning the armour to better fit what it's actually supposed to be whilst hopefully keeping as much of their iconic look as possible. Probably the most apparent thing to go was the boob plate, replaced with a much more basic (and not to mention, more functional) chest plate. I tried to build the armour up so it'd actually feel like it deserves to be called 'Power Armour' as opposed to just 'armour', this meant it started looking much less form-fitting and hopefully a little closer to it's Astartes counterparts and therefor more deserving of its armour save.
Her hairstyle was just because I felt like it, a bit of a call back to the Rogue Trader era where there was a lot of punk influence, if you will.
