-HUMAN ASSAULT DRONE-
THE ARMORED FORCES OF THE TERRAN ARMY. THESE DRONES
ARE NOTHING MORE THAN KILLING MACHINES WITH A BIG
GUN...WITH LIMITED VISION DUE TO A LOW TECH OPTIC
SENSOR, THESE CLUMSY BUT EFFECTIVE
TANKS CAN TAKE A BEATING.
ABOUT 6' IN HEIGHT AND WELL
OVER 600 LBS, THIS DURABLE ARMOR
UNIT CAN FIGHT FOR MONTHS WITHOUT
RECHARGE OR AMMO SINCE ALL ITS POW-
ER COMES FROM A SMALL SCALE FUSION
GENERATOR IN ITS CHEST. THE FLUID
NEEDED TO COOL THE UNIT DOWN AND
SEND THE ENERGY AROUND THE VESSEL
IS A THICK, RED GLOP THAT IS SIM-
MILAR TO THE ORGANICS' BIO FLUIDS.
NOTES FROM IAN: This character was created completely
with Strata Studio Pro. (A new toy of
mine.) He has a cold rendered look to him...A look I try
to stay away from really...But he looks cool none the
less.
The original idea came from a saturday morning anime
on the Sci-Fi channel...There were these guards that had
huge shoulder pads and brown trench coats on. The look
them made me think of a cool way of incorpurating them in
the game...Mine are BIGGER though...HA!
The original design had it wearing a brown trench
coat like in WWI since i figured it would add character
to the stail machine. But the coat proved annoying to
animate so it was cut out. If you look at the Original
sketches below you'll see the coat that i tried for...
He needed a bigger gun...heh...
Older more cramped idea...Ugly pict too...
