#fe echidna

Honestly, it work very well. The design really looks like she got everything she could use as a piece of armor. And it’s made sense as a member and chief of the resistance. It’s not a coordinated group it’s a bunch of people who bring with what they have.

So the fact her outfit is just some green and orange (which are not colors who look harmonious together most of the time) cloths put togethers work very well for her characterisation. It’s also making her stand out when we are more used to classical medieval armies with silver armors coordinated outfits... She’s messier but she doesn’t care about some fashion, she’s here to fight for her cause.

Also, the crocked bandana is just perfect with that.

The only things I would change is maybe having her whole arms covered by the bandages she has on her wrist, like she was hiding some scars.

Also in her original design, I found the armors on her shoulders is a bit wacky, but it was pretty much corrected with heroes (btw if she was just a bit more muscular, this art would be perfect).

Minerva

Her design is very fitting for both a princess and a wyvern fighter. As an exemple, just the fact that the white tissue combined with the armor look like wyvern wings is just so cool.

With the full red armor with gold decorations it looks very majestic like a bird of fire flying and ready to attack you.

I also like how when her brother’s outfit mostly black and her sister’s is completely white, her is very colorfull, with a very vibrant scarlet red, the color which we associate with Macedon the most.

Love how fitting it is with her role in the game.

But sadly, she’s a victim of being the first one of a whole fire emblem archetype: the fiercefull wyvern woman knight, which made her a bit less recognizable inside the whole roost of playable charcters because we’ve got other red wyvern knight (especially Melady who have the same haircut as well).

Even if her armor is more decorated with gold and she has a green bandana she needs now more recognizable features.

I felt like maybe with accentuation of the gold color or maybe add another warm color (maybe with little purple parts, a bit like what her resplandissant did) could make a good job at it. I felt like it would give her even more majesty and also made her stand up more.

Honestly, they’re both great, what I did was really me being nitpicky about it. They both great characters with great designs. And I love them a lot. Cool ladies for the win!

I wrote a bit less than with Nailah because they’re all very strong ladies so they’re quite similar on some points (I don’t want to bother you all too much by repeating myself too often) but also I don’t have the best knowledge about Archanea’s games, I know about Elibe’s more but it’s not the best, and for Echidna especially because I prefer Elffin’s path (Why I can’t play them together?! TwT) while I can write page about Tellius lore.
