Description

"Oh, yeah?? Well MY mom stormed the beach at Neormandy!"

Stomatiform myoborg marine combat specialist, analogous to a U.S. Navy SEAL. I should clarify that this is NOT powered armor--her actual body form is based on a mantis shrimp! She's wearing a neoprene wetsuit covered with segmented soft-shell armor similar to Shirow's "Gasium" body armor, but all those appendages and stuff are her own. (Actually the Gasium suits are supposed to be power-augmented with microminiaturized servos, but you know what I mean.)

I'd like to dedicate this design to my friend Rob, who's been having a really rough week. Feel better soon, buddy!

I love all of your designs and they are an inspiration. :D
However, sometimes its hard to see where one part ends and another begins - perhaps adding some lineweight to areas that are separate (like an arm in front of the body) could help make the design easier to understand?
