Queen Nymeria of Dorne

The legendary Dornish Queen Nymeria. She's not a real character of the A song of Ice and Fire saga; she's more like a myth that's been mentioned a couple of times. Arya's wolf is named after her, and I liked the idea of a warrior queen, so I wanted to give her a shot.

Designing her armour was very fun. I tried to mix egyptian, roman and persian references. I wanted to give her a gladius (a short, roman sword) until I remembered about the spear (how could I forget!!). Since she's not described in the books, I thought she'd look like the egyptian queen Hatsheput, only with hair.

Special credits go for SirHeartsalot, who confirmed black was the best option for her clothes, and SgtKabukiman, who did the "sun effect" on the sky.

Nymeria belongs to the A Song Of Ice and Fire saga by George R.R. Martin.
