Kazerad: See, I love it when artists do these little homages to the jokes in the comic. Like, she's wearing what's supposed to be a strapless top here, an aesthetic impeded by the underwear panted onto her. Tydrian could've just skipped that and gone for a generic Katia in some kind of bellydancer outfit, but no. They went all the way, and I respect that.

Gren: Actually, I think this is a reference to one of the entries of the arena armor design contest.

Kazerad: @Gren: Huh, I hunted down the source and it turns out you're right!

I also added the source, after going to all the effort of hunting it down.
