Description
I’ve been playing Legends of Equestria lately and I really like the design of the Titanium armor set.
Unfortunately, the ingame model of the armor is currently unfinished and the item icon of the armor doesn’t match up with the model so I have to add in some personal touch of my own. However, the core design of the armor remain.
And with this drawing I finally bring the idea of an alternate universe version of my OC, Honey Nevaeh, into use and give her a distinguishable name: Divine Nevaeh.
I will certainly try and colour this lineart.

Thanks for the feedback.
I did take into consideration about the first part. There is a padding suit that is worn underneath the armor as seen on her belly and there is supposed to be a layer of padding attach to the inner surface of the armor itself.
As for the 2nd and 3rd part, I don’t have much knowledge about armor and just tried to keep it closed to the original model while making it visually good and somewhat believable at the same time. Originally I did think of using chainmail to cover up the exposed parts but then it sway to far from the in-game model.

Firstly, armor against bare skin/ bare coat is a no-no…not only is chafing and pinching a real concern, but without padding, any strike is still going to cause blunt force trauma.
Secondly, there are several areas where transitional armor should exist and there is none, ex. the base of her neck. There should be a gorget there, connecting the head, neck and torso armor. Furthermore, the front of her throat is exposed. As are her knees.
Finally, that helm. I can understand the aesthetic design of this harness, to make a pony appear more draconic, however, that helm is a deathtrap. Without a singular piece of (whatever metal this is to be made out of) the skull-cap of that helm is likely to flex too much on impact and will not protect its wearer as well as a singular piece would.
From an artistic perspective, this is very promising and there are a lot of little details that are very nice, such as the thoughtful location of straping (though they should ALL be mounted on the inside, not some) and the rivets holding the plates together. To the way you gave this harness a coherent theme from nose to rump, and hoof to head. I would advise moving forward, looking at both barding and human harnesses, to incorporate elements from both.
