Description 3rd task Wardrobe for Corres' round in OC-training .
Corres is quite practical when it comes to his dressing choices (unless showing off his biceps to young recruits) and he is entirely ignorant about fashion whatsoever. All of his more fashionable outfit choices were made by Riel, most probably.

casual
"Mornin', mate! Slept well? Shouldn't have challenged me to a drinkin' contest last night..."
Corres' outfit of choice is a top tank, thick cotton pants rolled up to the half of his calves, and no shoes. The most comfortable set when spending half of your life aboard a ship cruising southern seas.

travel on sea
Dressed for rainy/cold weather. It's also a practical outfit for dire weather aboard a ship. The coat and boots are strengthened with a layer of natural rubber, precious material imported from southern Ekken.

formal aka "stop waving that damned blade"
You better don't let Corres to formal parties. For him, party has only one dimension: drinking until passing out (which means until the bright dawn), and having a shit ton of fun beforehand. He will dance, wave his saber, and get into drunk fights. And he will sing sailor songs. Very, very loudly.

training
"Look, kids, this is a sword. It's dull, so that you don't hurt yourselves with it before you learn how to use it... well, it will hurt anyway. So, you hit with the pointy end. Alrighty, that's enough talking. Who's first?"
For training, he doesn't like to wear full armor as it slows down his moves. He only puts on his favourite hardened leather breastplate and a few other crucial elements like spaulders, bracers and greaves.

travel on land
Probably preparing to leave for a special mission. (League of Talents is a special forces unit, so they get a lot of special missions). He doesn't wear anything too heavy, a gambeson and buff coat is perfectly enough for a long ride not involving armed skirmishes. (At least not planned ones.)

battle
"Alright, ladies, the training is over, time to test you in the battle. Don't come crying if you die."
Corres as a professional mercenary and experienced war veteran is skilled with a few weapons and fighting styles. In a battle involving a lot of close combat and a lot of troops he is usually given a two-handed sword, since he's strong enough to wield it. In this plate armor he becomes somewhat a live tank on the battlefield.
During the war, one of Corres' habits before the battle was "the last damn cigarette", because he never knew if he made it out of the battle alive

Great designs! Β I love the formal wear, it is a shame that he gets totally wasted while wearing it!

Ooooooo! What sort of special missions does he get sent on?

SpaceCastaway In reply to StoryMaker91 [2018-02-26 13:08:26 +0000 UTC]

Usually top secret ones but my bet would be missions requiring smart use of force, intimidation, escorting or protecting VIPs, interaction with thugs - things Corres excels at. He's mostly a brute, but also knows how to deal and talk with other brutes. And makes friends easily, especially over alcohol. He will reach people whom diplomacy won't reach. And if he doesn't, well, he'll just beat the living shit out of them if needed. Hope that answers

He is so funny and handsome Gotta love those flavour texts for the outfits (Don't come crying if you die )Β Β And that cigar Β And gosh, his behaviour doesn't look so formal on those occasions when he's wearing his formal outfit This is definitely my favourite outfit (that shirt opened at the chest and that brooch, plus how well yellow goes with his tanned skin <3 ) Imagine Corres and my Hakon at a party... not sure if the guests would have the fun of their lives or run away until someone gets in an alcoholic coma/burns the place down/pokes out someone's eyes/etc.

I love all the details in his outfits and your descriptions of them!Β Your entries are always so professional and well thought out, I always look forward to seeing what you come up with!

Thanks, I'm happy you like him!
He's far from formal indeed, fair to say, his manners are non-existent. Glad you like it! Oh yes, they'd get along with Hakon so much I wonder if Yngvar would be jealous for stealing his best friend or would he be among those who wouldn't run (I don't imagine him joining too eagerly though)
Thank you so much, I'm really happy you look forward to my entries

HelevornArt In reply to SpaceCastaway [2018-02-26 13:53:54 +0000 UTC]

I don't think he would be jealous, he sometimes welcomes a break from Hakon's talking and the way he makes a fool of himself at parties (especially when they were younger, I imagine Yngvar often facepalming) xD

Corres is one of my favorite oc You draw him very well, expecially the formal cloth. I like his personality even if I'm sure he is a bit a boaster XD He has a full depicted personality.

SpaceCastaway In reply to DihyaJam96 [2018-02-26 12:54:03 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much, I bet he's flattered! He definitely is a bit of a boaster, but a fair one at that. He doesn't boast if there's nothing to be proud of I'm really happy you like him!

His outfits are gorgeous!Β Β It's a nice idea to put some sentences depicting his character to every picture. I totally dig his mental disposition, especially when partying and training his "little ladies" .From all his clothing I really like his formal and travel on land attires.Β Β 
And...OMG his training outfit and posture remind me of Terry Pratchett's Sam Vimes (it's probably the cigarΒ  ). Β Β

Thanks a lot! I try to do that with my characters for this task to introduce them better. Glad you like him

Haha, I haven't read this series, but from a quick search I'd guess Sam appears a little more bitter and disillusioned person than Corres. But yeah, they both seem to smoke like trains

Great work! You always amaze me by the variety and accuracy of poses you do for your characters. The poses you choose always show the aspects of their character so well. I really like the training one in particular. Really looks like he's saying the phrases you wrote in the description; you did his face and body pose so well to reflect that!

The party animal pose and bright clothing choice does show us he is very much a partier

He very much is a partier, and a pretty sturdy one at that XD

That being said, I still utterly love his armors, the witty description, and the soft drunken flush of his face in his party outfit. Corres is nothing short of wonderful. I know I expressed myself on the matter quite clearly already, but I just need to state it again.
