Nightsword Armour Set Concept Art

The story behind this armour set is that it was used by assassins that disguise themselves as performers, so I went with something between Assassins Creed and court Jester.

The concept went through a lot of evolution in design as well as backstory, at one point the character was going to fill a more vigilante role (at one point with a owl motif).

The design at this point had been refined down to the Jester idea but I was still exploring the ratio of practicality over style.
