    Pretty neat!

    Didn't know the ice planet Hoth had been infested though =D

    Nice. Like the infestation coming out the ice. You could make the characters' poses more emotive. I would make the marine's arms and legs a bit longer, and thicken the arms. Some really good details on the marine's gear you've made.

    Yeah he could be, should have made the head smaller and dropped it down. Wanted the body armour to look like it was thick and warm.

    You are right about the pose as well, but was only a quick/ish paint! For me anyway.

    Miles ahead of anything I can do. I think it's pretty amazing.

    That's awesome, you should also post this or any other future awesomeness in <a href="http://unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=114920&st=0" target="_blank">this thread</a> too. A frozen map would be awesome. Can spark do transparent models?

    HI there

    the picture looks awesome! I envy you for your painting skills! haha

    About the pose someone mentioned, he is pretty right, the marine looks stiff at the moment.
    I also would enhance the saturation of the colours a bit, at least of the orange to make the contrast between the yellow/orange cyst and the blue/white surrounding a bit more vibrant.

    But over all, great work!

    so long

    Did another quick (ish for me) one today.

    Exo I just stuck in and did a bit of a paint job, as I did not want to spend the time accurately painting him in.

    Yea I can see on closer inspection your ice marine has the white fur lining showing out the bottom of the armour as well as the collar. Pretty cool looking!

    Would be fun to have NS2 maps in a jungle/tropical island setting like you drew. You should post these in the mapping inspiration thread.

    Lol that EXO looks so out of place in that image. Nevermind!

    Useless for mapping imo, you need some clean detailed drawings for inspiration.

    Very nice, I like how you have used loose strokes on this to create shape and form.
