DWIV - 3D - Xidon -cyborg -Scourge of War

LATEST UPDATE:
Look at my latest post for a description.





Hey everyone, There are some mint entries already online I’m very excited.
I have chosen to do a cyborg for my Dominance War IV entry.
The Scourge or War is a cyborg about 3 times the size of an average adult human. Its main power source comes from the two human torsos kept on its back. These bodies are kept unconscious and feed full of nutrients to keep them alive and full of energy. The CPU sucks energy out of the living power source to fuel it in battle. When it needs a huge burst of energy two generators per capsule start to spin at an alarming rate sucking almost all the life out of its living hosts so get the boost of energy it need. the antenna on its back acts for communication as well as another power source. They attract lightening and store up energy in its body when struck by lightening.

I still haven’t thought of its weapons yet. Maybe a gun arm some massive weapon. Maybe even deviating hands of some kind. What do you guys think?

Please feel free to critique.

Sweet design, cant wait to see more. :beer:

#3

Looks great man. It looks like it has potential to be far greater than your rat :slight_smile:

#4

Cool idea will be cool to see it come together :beer:

#5

Love the concept… especially the spinning capsules would be a cool thing to visualise it when in attack mode, Nice Design too… looking forward for updates

#6

Yeah waiting to see what these look like after a bit more dev. good idea, keep it up :buttrock:

#7

Looking great man, loving the smooth curves/sharp edge balance.

#8

Hey here is an update. i changed the design quite a bit. He is now more fleshy and I’m working on putting in the mechanical parts. He also has two giant laser cannons in each palm of his hand. Hope you guys like. Please feel free to critique.

#9

I like the giant hands, it reminds me of a caveman :), i also like how you have the robotic muscles, this could look quite good on the huge hands keep it comming mate

#10

Cool man, I’m liking the new direction.
Reminds me of the crysis suit, which rocks :buttrock:

Would be keen to see some development on the head(face?)

#11

Reminds me of a giant gorilla/frankenstein

Looking great, so lets see some progression!

#12

Looks good so far. I’m going to keep a watch for this one…

#13

Hey all, its been a long time since i’ve posted anything and I still Haven;t come too much further either. Here is an update on the design. I hope to finish it tomorrow. I’ve gone less for robotic muscles in the arms, and now have exhaust type pipes coming out of his muscles to release the heat and excess energy from firing his hand cannons. I’ve developed the capsules a bit more (as you can see far right). And am now just deciding on what to do for the legs and chest area. Please critique on the legs you like, and/or ideas you think could work well as I’m a bit stuck on my design at the moment:banghead:

#14

Looking really gud, lovin the arms.

As for legs I would choose the top right one’s

Keep it up! :thumbsup:

#15

Not bad, but it really reminds me this…

sweet I really like the shape of its head! :smiley:

#17

Great concepting mate :slight_smile: i think the face could use a little more details, i love the whole exhaust idea. as for the legs i like the bottom ones but um still undecided about the feet as i dont like the top right ones as they look too close to human shoes (mechanical version), but i think putting the top left ones with the bottom legs could make it look like robot pants:p, but keep it up man cant wait to see the final design

Hi Benjamin, Thanks for replying to my post in the general discussion thread. I think there might be another reason though, cause I live in Europe and I usually try to post comments on other threads considering to East/West times. However as I said thanks a lot for posting.
About your design, I think the idea of the torsos in the back is really cool! I would play a little bit more with the silhouette of the character, may be you could find some more nice forms.
Best.
BTW, I loved your Predator VS Alien illustration. Really great!!!

looking very nice man, I’ve just got the feeling his back looks stretched out in order to fit 2 on his back? It only looks aparent in the isomectic shot in your last sketch post. The front + side views look natural tho.

Apart from that everything looks mint! Keep it up. :slight_smile:
