FE Armor - WIP1

- This armor won the poll so I started working on it a couple of days ago.

- It's using a different body than the usual one I use to model for the first time in a long time. I switched bodies to something that's closer to the concept art to at least attempt to maintain the look partially. Most of the changes are in upper part of the body (smaller breasts, thinner waist, small changes to back and shoulders), the legs are very similar or exactly the same as my usual body. Aside from this, the armor model itself doesn't follow said body to the letter. I've also thinned the wrist area and made the hands slimmer (though those might need to be thinned again). What all of this means, basically, is that from a compatibility standpoint, this set is going to be a cluster F. Even if I'm planning to release this in pieces, said pieces will probably only be usable with themselves, if that, due to differences between the body and armor model.

- I have build a blockout of the whole set at this point to understand how everything fits together and see overall proportions and it covers pretty much all of the main parts of the armor. The concept art itself makes no logical sense in a lot of areas (typical for most 2d concept art though) so some back and forth and some constant adjustments were needed but I now have a pretty good ideea how to approach most pieces and where most parts are.

- Also quickly did a head sculpt and some hair that somewhat matches the concept. You can ignore those, they have nothing to do with the project itself, they're throwaways so that I don't have to stare at the FO4 headmesh when I model the armor, that shit be ugly :(

- In any case, ready to start doing the actual model for it, things should go smoothly now that I have a mostly correct base to model from. I usually go from bottom to up, so shoes first. I'm hoping to have those done and out by the end of this month.
