I am making armor for the Wolf tribe in my story. I have done about 6 versions but this is my favorite. This is the armor for the Deer tribe [x]
What you guys think?
What would you change?
(this is very rough since I am not sure if I like it or not. And yeah I know the wolf part looks bad lol. Just needed a fast form)

I think it looks good. :3
But maybe you could add some bands holding down the thigh guards, like you did for the forearms?
Otherwise the thigh guards would just flap around when running. >.<
But it's really not needed since, well, it's just a drawing. x:
And are you making these out of metal or leathers?
Just curious, cause you could add some chainmail to the stomach area.

Oooh. I love armors. I draw lots of armor designs. Lots... and lots... and lots.
It would depend what kind of tribe of wolves it is?
Would they not want to protect the feet with at least some sort of leather straps? Leather straps with small plates or staples of metal or something else for better protection.
Also, would an emblem of the tribe/clan of the wolves rather be at the spot of the "gem"?
Just opinions and suggestions :'D
Keen on helping people with this kinda stuff. _________________

Thanks both of you!
I will add the straps since it for sure makes sense >.<
And I really want his feet to be bare since they run in the forest often. I wanted 100% free movement for them.
I had thought of some kinda emblem for them but failed. So I decided to just put gems there.
Sadly I had a deadline with this.

Deadlines suck.
Straps are straps, they don't wave around when you move so it's not a sacrifice of movement... unless of course if you put them in places where they don't belong. _________________

All good armor's have a head peice! Even if its a deceleration. Also like you said its a fast form of a wolf.. for a deer tribe? Pretty hard to see past the wolf form IMO. (two very different body structures) And the leg bands is a great idea as of right now i wonder how they are staying on.. hee hee. I really like the diamond center pieces that really ties the top to the bottom. I also think all armor sets should have an ANKLE/ Achillie GUARD... no joke.. If i lived in med-evil times that would be one of the things i would want covered. Once your Achilles tendon is cut your done...
