Raptor Hardsuit

Post by Gorthaff » Tue Dec 30, 2014 7:14 am

Yesterday I read the quest for the head separator Part III and I got inspired by the black knights. Here is what I managed:

The raptor is a highly manouverable light walker, also known as a power armour, or hardsuit. it has a single pilot encased in the chest, and he controls the powerful hydraulics of the limbs through his own motions. The Hardsuit can fill a variety of roles from anti tank or anti air duty to armed scout or fire support. However it has originally been designed to act as a force multiplyer for infantry in confined areas, such as spaceships or bunkers, where traditional treaded vehicles would have a hard time manouvering.

The construction itself is pretty sturdy.even though the legs and forearms tend to fall off when trying to pose it, they can be easily pot together. All limbs are fully articulated, and the pilots body is completely intact. The torso is about two and a half inches tall, and the current weaponry consists of a Mk3 autocannon a Mk2 LMG and a Mk1 flamer. The back is pretty plain, but at that pont i didn't know what should I add. I'm open to suggestions, ans woul apperciate youur opinions.
I couldn't come up with anything smart, original or funny, so <=THIS=> is what you get.
ENJOY IT!!!

Looks great. Maybe fill up the holes in the legs though.

It has an interesting design which creates a more unique look to it. Good work!

This is pretty damn cool, but I think it could do with some more bulkiness in the legs.

Also, if you don't mind me asking, where can I find those beautiful cobalt helmet lens?

I'm not feeling this one personally - but given the parts range you were using for the build, it's not that bad.
