I feel like if you gradually started taking away parts of the suit, you could find a decent final form in there somewhere. Maybe balance the colours to take it easy on the gold. As it is, it's just an eyesore. :/

This also has the worst googly eyes of all because the whole design is going for like a super ornate, paladin look and it's got anime peepers hard juxtaposing everything else. Solid eyes would've achieved the same effect but looked a million times better.
