Cool idea! I like how the chakrams sheath into his leg armor!

Thank you very much!

So I've opted for the robot dude and made the full design of the generic robot soldiers. I decided a simpler, less advanced body was needed, to make him more generic, relatively weaker and to better emphasize the "transcending" side of him.

I'll be uploading the full transcending body concept and the midway concept soon.

Here's the next version, with a side by side comparison to a fellow generic soldier.
Expanded the transcending side to the abdomen to make it more prominent. It's supposed to be a fleshier material and segmented pieces as if it were musculature, with glowing gaps. The hand and the face glow through the material, meaning it can heat its arm to very high temperatures for using it as a weapon.

Looking good. ^^ Will he still have something like the cable on his back from your previous sketches ?

Thank you! I was thinking about that just now, some sort of remnant, but I already have an idea in place for the back, so maybe I'll put something on the side or over the shoulder.

Here's a render update before starting color testing, I added a cloth over the shoulder, left some wires hanging and removed the arm cover.

There's also a WIP on the concept sheet views.

Gotta go fast, time is running out

So here are some color variations.

However as I said, the arm is incandescent, so it might as well by only that one orange color. Green would be cool given it's ultra high temperature but if the human eye can't see beyond yellow/orange, then there's no point to it.

Although the other colors look cool.

Well the yellow and blue ones were the most popular among my friends, along with the red cloth, so how about a mid tone armor with red cloth:

Oh man I think I need to change my colours now haha ^^
Sure very different design between our character !

The very first design was also very cool
Good luck !

Nice progress! The legs are looking soo high tech. I like the yellow one Keep up the good work!

aegilrod 2017-02-23 05:59:04 UTC #15

@berrysquare Thank you! And yes the yellow one won by a pretty good margin, although I'm still between red or green cloth for it.

Concept sheet WIP update.

aegilrod 2017-02-23 21:05:40 UTC #17

aegilrod 2017-02-24 04:03:59 UTC #18

milanbourgeon 2017-02-24 04:21:22 UTC #19

Nice wing design ! The color is spot on, its perfect, reminds me of humans revolution in color and metal gear in design !

aegilrod 2017-02-24 04:23:43 UTC #20

Thank you very much! That's a really nice compliment!

aegilrod 2017-02-24 07:08:51 UTC #21
