Same way you get good at drawing anything, look at references and practice until you can do it off the top of your head.

Miura is fucking crazy about it too. He has tons of reference books for medieval architecture, armor, and weaponry.

the best way to design armor is to understand what the pieces do and what they are meant to deflect
also fabric is good armor

the fuck is your problem dude? I've been subscribed to lindy for over 2 year, and I knew of those even before finding him, I just did not make the connection of where the design of the rings from lwa could come from

you need to spent at least 1month wearing full suit armor 24/7 to truly understand enough to draw it well

Weeb armor drawing is just layering plates in same position as muscle groups. Just learn anatomy and flatten muscle groups and you have armor.

Were romans fighting in cold weather? I really like overall armor design but that skirt and short sleeve shirt look is kinda funny to me. Like he is ready to go to the golf club or smth

Where could I find such reference books? I've been looking around but haven't really found anything worth a shit.
