In Response To: more Marathon Art (not by me) (Anaphiel)

: Finally re-found this piece by Dan Milligan... it was posted on the
: conceptart.org website a while back as part of their Thunderdome 5
: competition. The theme of the competition was to redesign classic game
: characters, and Dan chose the Marathon Marine for a makeover.

: Very different take on the character, and I for one like it a lot aside from
: the squinty little eyes. Dan's website has some pretty impressive work on
: it, but AFAIK this is his only Marathon-related piece.

Very cool. Dan borrowed a lot from a mish mash of old time existing Air Force uniforms giving his character a "retro-modern" pilot look. I'm curious as to what keeps his eyeballs from protruding out on stalks like a crab when he is in vacuum. I must assume he has a helmet he dons (that is not shown) that would provide the HUD as well as air pressure. That petty concern aside, you gotta love it when a talented person dabbles in Marathon. Thanks for the heads up!
