Artist's description:

"Hitch has been a stalwart sentry for the small kingdom of Maretime Bay since his adolescent years growing up alongside Sunny Starscout. However, his priorities have recently shifted with his promotion to the King’s Guard and, with the aid of his excitable Dragon assistant Sparky, now joins Sunny’s adventuring team, serving as the group’s muscle and self-proclaimed strategist."

So Hitch’s armor design is not as overly complex as I had done for Zipp recently. Nonetheless, I'm quite satisfied with what I mangaed here. Basically, my goal was to design Hitch as the tank of the party. And of all the heavy-hitter classes, I realized that the Paladin was the best fit for him both in fighting style and story wise. Plus, I had to add Sparky in as his sort of "sidekick" on his adventures.
