Here's what I had in mind for a slashish. I haven't designed the skates yet though. And wow, i draw really crappily. Nevermind the face and legs


The thing is, we're in reverse - q3a shipped with a Yuriko skin for slash that had a uniform. It wasn't the default appearance though

just to show you i'm not an all-out otakuface I also drew 'gangter'. I drew it a bit differently this time, sketching first then doing hard lines after

To get back to 'random character concepts' Here is my own submission.

'Grunt'(I know there's already a grunt, but that's just a reskinned gargoyal:


Front:


Back:




This is exactly what I think OpenArena needs.  A 'Visor'-type character!  I can help with the voices, if you want (provided I get to test them, I know how to use FL Studio to edit voice clips)

Go for it!

I've got a more human voice in mind(as this is more futuristic SWAT/special forces than cyborg) but a computerish/artificial feeling voice would also work wonders so long as its not monotone or cylon(heavy synth with hard sylybles...makes it sound like somebody's using a kid's toy to do voice output).

How about something along the lines of the depictions of the Egyptian deities?  Something like Anubis (Jackal headed human) or Ra (Hawk/eagle headed human)?

Depends on if you want the more hybrid human/animal look the actual egyptians had, or the mroe technoish type armor the jaffa had on stargate. Either would look cool really, but clerification would be nice.

a cross between the two, the animal head with the muscular body of the jaffa but instead of eyes, glowing pits of flame.

I'll see if I can bower someone's scanner to clarify fully.

Either or both would work well as its wierd, its got a human anatomy, and depending on the texture and how its lit...it can be quite frightening.

Edit:
would be nice if we finally saw a body for the announcer guy. Just hope eventually somebody makes that one happen as I'd love to see mr announcer kicking people about. Not sure what sort of model he/it would have, but since you're going to have someone donating voices for announcements anyhow, why not add a few lines in while they're recording and slide 'em on a model(would be even funnier if the announcer turned out to be Fish.

It'd be really cool if you can find someone to make it happen. Although I'm not so sure since its an actual historical figure you want modeled for the game.

Satyagraha doesn't really mix well with OA, don't you think?

I thought about that, and it'd be fine if it was just a bald Indian guy with glasses and white robes.  Gandhi didn't smoke cigars, so it couldn't be him.
Then again, if they can copy the Doom guy, why not?  Does someone own Gandhi's likeness?

I do go to an art college, for one more semester.  Maybe one of the animators would give it a shot.

I'm not sure how well historical political figures would work in OA

I was also thinking a skin idea for slashish that would give her nekogirl ears and a bodysuit (heh, common there)


Also lol

best suits for a Bikerish.

Eh, I decided to make character concepts for a character that I might want to be modeled in 3D, figured a good place to post it would be here. It's a little incomplete, though, since I drew both the front and back with the legs not shown at the bottom.

Anyhow, here they are:




The concept might be a bit hard to model though, depending on how people interpret the confusing parts of the drawing(er, drawings). I still need to finish the legs and perhaps a few head angles, but might as well post what I have.

Keet, if you want that to be modeled, I highly recommend making some sketches of that character in the Da Vinci pose, perhaps with a more realistically proportioned head. Be very careful about perspectives and proportions when doing concept art. It's extremely helpful.

ALSO: I notice a lot of people seem to be contributing various FPS archetypes to this game. Most obviously, there has been Grism and the Gargoyle, but now we have plans for things like the Egyptian gods. I personally like this disregard for originality and have a few more ideas (and drawings which I may or may not post later) for other archetypes to represent:
  • Security Guard (Would probably come in a variety of skins, representing different security companies.)
  • Dystopian Police
  • Zombie
  • Quadruped alien/monster
  • Working class macho guy (Serious Sam or Duke Nukem type guy)
  • Modern soldier (There are a lot of ways you can go with this one. It could branch into multiple models.)
  • WWII-styled soldier
  • Semi-skeletal biped with mechanical elements and who is on fire.
  • Teenage cyberpunk
