I made somethin' *IMG*
Posted By: TDSpiral <brennagar@gmail.com>	Date: 9/28/12 11:02 p.m.
In Response To: Visualizing the Halo Universe: Week 1 (Postmortem) Keep in mind, I haven't actually read Cryptum or Primordium, so I was going off descriptions from Halopedia. I kind of took elements from a few sources and synthesized them to come up with this. There was the crazy back-circles and overall look from the Promethean Knights, the blockiness of the Hannaford combat skin concept, and the helmet design references the Halo Legends helmet in subtle ways. By the way, this is just what he'd look like if he was all geared up for battle, so that's why he's all armored up and has a sword-hand. The sword-hand, like the rest of his armor, just sort of floats in place and locks itself together (referencing the pickup animations for the Forerunner weaponry in H4). That's how he's able to move as well- the plating adjusts in ways that protects him at all times in every crevice of his body while he moves. No weak spots. Apparently he's supposed to be tank-like in musculature, but I wanted to go with something that was reminiscent of the Spartan-II physique. Quite muscular, but not so much so that it's encumbering (or looks silly). I know this is more about accuracy, but at the same time, I want him to be visually appealing as well. The silhouette next to him is just a standard pre-mutated Forerunner as a reference of scale.
