In my mind, the really interesting "barbarians" were the ones that went to battle fearlessly naked (or nearly so) to psych their enemies. The Celts, Gauls, Gymnitai, or various African and N/S American tribes. ....Or any excuse to draw an interesting body shape. ;)
I also played a bit with clothing options (a gal's gotta have a wardrobe), so there's "Spring fashion" and "Fall fashion".
I always imagine my female warriors to be a little less buxom and more agile. But she still rocks the skirt in the obviously freezing cold. We're working off of Warcraft physics here.
Here's a marker sketch I worked on off-and-on all day yesterday. I had forgotten how fun markers can be, but I have a limited range of colors, so I couldn't go too crazy. Enjoy!
