No worries, I saw it but being that this is a test unit, I didn't feel obligated to fix that.

I would load out with that purple, but it needs something... maybe a pink or silver accent?

I have 1 channel left to use on the mech, so I waiver between adding a 2nd accent color, or using it to allow people to tint the metal.

Hurm... well, it has been a long time since I textured, but I think I would err on the side of tinting sections of the body metal, sort of a tint accent? Eh, that would probably lead to awkward colour muddle in the end.

well essentially, it would be an accent color(like extra colors for vents) or something. OR it would be metal color/specular levels. So essentially you could do gold metalics or something.

Those shoulders are super blocky. It's confusing to the eyes. Can't you remove the three outer shoulder plates?

I think it works with the visual style I am going for with these guys, largely blocky with a combination of angular accents. from the top it really works with the blocky style I wanted to convey. From the front it gives them a very hyper-masculine appearance looking physically strong and stout. I wanted that feeling for this suit. I am not sure why that is visually confusing.

i guess i havent stopped in this thread to say awesome sauce.
So here it goes.

AWESOME SAUCE. :mrgreen:

On a side note i do enjoy those shoulders, style wise it fits well with the torso witch has a blocky apeal to it as well.

I find if you are going for rounded shoulders a Curved head and a more sphered torso looks better.

The heads could be more menacing and a bit bigger imo, they look a bit small.

Bob: they are not getting uved right now as my kitbashes of the pather were sufficient to test what they needed.

Scifi, I'll look into scaling the heads a bit, the suits you see in the thread are fir tier suits so the have fairly primitive heads. Later tier stuff is going to have more gundam/transfirmer like heads.

At the moment I am occupied with getting the underlying code a bit stronger. I won't stsrt the real gane work until I get the core code more solidified

I don't like the larger heads, makes them feel chibi. I would rather keep the heads smaller like they were. this is only 120% larger

*edit* didn't like the end result, reverted
