I wanted to depict strong women warriors who do not necessarily look like the typical warrior. With different sizes, ages, and body types, each one feels like she has a rich backstory and history.
You can find all my warrior women in a high-res, free-to-download PDF in the link below.

This is my favorite. A woman with this build is only ever portrayed as the bad guy, if she's seen at all. However, I know several lovely women of the same shape IRL, just as varied as the whole of your series. Beautiful job!

Yael these are powerful images and our world will be better off if we see more of these in a variety of visual spaces! Have you considered also depicting people with different abilities (also referred to as "people with disabilities")? It would be absolutely amazing to see how badass people with different abilities are in illustrations such as yours! Thank you

I love them all. All beautiful sizes (both height and width) and colours, gorgeous. I would read a book about these women, I want to know all their stories. And not one of them is dressed in something inappropriate to fight in. Not one of them is heading to fight in outfits that constrict them or would endanger them. Love it.

Usually when folks do these types of things - like reimgaining of costumes - to be less sexy - they also mean less flattering and less cool looking. They think folks are supposed to like them just because they are PC....and not well designed. You hit the nail right on the head. They just have a lot of heart that went into the design and look cool. I want to read about them now and follow their journey's.

I shared here "the whisle of my freedom" , no whisle, just the sound of a 9 section whip chain. No one is willing to approach that, master it and you don't need pepper spray, it's light, discreet, and if someone stole it, he will kill himself before touching you, it's not a knife, or worst a gun. I'm in love of that tiny thing. It's tiny, can't be used against you, you can use it even if the "dangerous people" use it. A woman in need should master it, nobody is doing you nothing with that and skills. I like the sound of it, even in training, like a whisle, and i know that i can kill someone over a mistake too, i'm not going to do that. I never used it. I know that i can use it, if someone or myself is in danger, i never had to use it. i'm really glad.
Xan A. Du 4 years ago
So drawing women as overweight, muscular, manly and angry looking equates to "powerful warrior"? I'm not seeing it. I consider a powerful warrior as someone who is strong mentally and emotionally. Someone who can teach someone to deal with the world they live in. Good and bad. Continue to grow to be a better person for yourself, which in turn will show to others.

There are two basic body types for women: 1) Those who have waists and 2) those who don't. There were only two of these with women who might be said to not have a waist (and one was just very thin). So, once again, thank you to the OP for making me feel so deformed that I don't even qualify to be included in the all-the-different-body-types post. This wasn't different body types for the most part. It was just different weights.

Growing up, my sister and I had a friend down the street. It was a weird house that recluses tended to rent or own. She apparently didn't go to public school. Maybe home-schooled? (This was in the 70s.) Anyway, she just wasn't around at some point, then she came back to the neighborhood to visit and showed up with part of her leg missing. We're little, we're just like, "So, what happened to your leg?" She said she had cancer and they cut it off. She had a crutch and was super adept with it. She could balance on both crutches, feet off the ground, swing back and forth, spin around on one crutch. We already thought she was great, but now she was like superhuman to us. We SO BADLY wanted to do the same we kept begging our parents for crutches for about 2-3 weeks. She was my superhero growing up.

It's all fine and well to lend our voices to the ''accept yourself as you are'' mantra, but what if some of the body shapes are being conditioned by hormones in the meat we eat? Some people, women especially, are sensitive to these undeclared additives and these can sure bend our lower bodies into strange shapes.

Wow, just wow! I absolutely love your art style and the material. I signed up just so I could comment! Thank you for this! I love the poses, the details, the colors. I'm an old school DnD kid, and I would agree, they could each have a rich backstory! So cool...thank you again! btw, a warrior-mage would be a cool addition also :)

Growing up, my sister and I had a friend down the street. It was a weird house that recluses tended to rent or own. She apparently didn't go to public school. Maybe home-schooled? (This was in the 70s.) Anyway, she just wasn't around at some point, then she came back to the neighborhood to visit and showed up with part of her leg missing. We're little, we're just like, "So, what happened to your leg?" She said she had cancer and they cut it off. She had a crutch and was super adept with it. She could balance on both crutches, feet off the ground, swing back and forth, spin around on one crutch. We already thought she was great, but now she was like superhuman to us. We SO BADLY wanted to do the same we kept begging our parents for crutches for about 2-3 weeks. She was my superhero growing up.

These ladies look like they could kick my butt and let their animals eat whatevers left. I say that with all possible respect. They’re so beautiful and tough!!

I love these! I'd love to see some gnome-ish/short person versions! I tend to play a gnome or at least a short class in most of my games.

It's all fine and well to lend our voices to the ''accept yourself as you are'' mantra, but what if some of the body shapes are being conditioned by hormones in the meat we eat? Some people, women especially, are sensitive to these undeclared additives and these can sure bend our lower bodies into strange shapes.

Fat women are hot and most of the warriors throughout world history were actually women!!!

OK, captain buzz kill time...... why do ALL the characters have a waist narrower than their hips? Even the bigger women have narrower waists. Great artistry all the same!

Exactly. Such BS about it being different body types. But I agree about the artistic work. That was very good.
