Assault Gear - 1

Share

The latest version of a very delayed project for the NGPD. I've made many versions which can all be seen on my news posts. I'd rather not call this a sketch, but rather a concept art if anything.

RECAP:

This armor has been rechristened as TAG (Tactical Assault Gear). It's worn by the special portal defense force called the NGPD. For those who watched Jin Roh, you'll see I borrowed the hallmark gas-mask/glow eye which was also adopted by Half-Life's Combines and Killzone's Helghast soldiers. Unlike the previous models, which had oxygen tanks, this one is simply equipped with a lightweight, high performance filter which can be toggled on and off by the wearer. The eyepiece can toggle between normal vision (HUD coordinates with registered teammates), infrared, and NV. Eye piece has been extended to allow better peripheral vision.

Metal "stahlhelm-esque" helmet, shoulder guards, kneepads, and chest plating protects vital organs and critical joints while kevlar covers limbs. Light metal forearm guard provides agile protection against blunt and ballistic trauma.

Weaponry includes:
- 3 chest primary magazine pouches (2 mags each)
- 3 thigh secondary magazine pouches (2 each)
- 1 thigh holster
- 2 rear hip primary magazine pouches (2 mags each)
- 2 rear hip grenade pouches (1 each).
* knife can be placed on leg, hip or chest

God damn it

How long did each of these take you?! The details are amazing! It really has a resemblance to a Halo armor with the helmet coming from Killzone. It's all AWESOME!

TailsPrower responds:

Each of these took roughly about an hour of quick pencil work. As a result, I guess it's detailed in a messy sort of way lol.

I fermented the whole Jin-Roh/Killzone trooper archetype for a while in my head so I knew what I wanted to feature in the armor system. This incarnation is most pleasing to me at the moment - though I plan to make future modifications.

Thanks for the comment, TP!

holy shit

when do we get issued that?!? haha. that's actually a pretty good picture though. how long did it take you?

TailsPrower responds:

It'll be out once I can finalize the designs and finish the standard angles. Then I'll remaster them on Paint because I'm unfamiliar with the more sophisticated programs. I really like this one so hopefully there won't be many more tweaks.

But don't hold your breath either lol :3

Thanks for the feedback!
