Tracyn\'s Creations - New Update: A Mando in Vong skin!

Thanks, Aarel and Dragonfist.

Here's a little update. Like I said, ZERO did an amazing micro rendition of Ronan's custom blaster rifle, the EE-23 MkIV (which I came up with and was illustrated by a buddy of mine), so I totally had to add that to the Micro. He also helped me out with a template for a rifle-holding man. I only made the colors a little darker and drew a foreshortened version of his left gauntlet, that's all. In addition, I also drew a rendition of Ronan's custom blaster pistol, the P-7 'Offshoot' (also drawn by a buddy of mine) and added that as well.

Here's the result:



Let me hear what you think.

looks great.

I agree.

That is just so frakinin awesome.

Looks absolutely fantastic with his rifle!

Been quite a while since my last update, busy with other stuff and all. Nonetheless, here's another Micro Mando:


Altair Jiriad (in Yuuzhan Vong imitation armor)

Jiriad has a rather peculiar armor, quite different from the normal Mandalorian armor. Its design is based on the living crab armor of the Yuuzhan Vong, a bio-loving alien race in SW, and the armor he made is designed to taunt the Yuuzhan Vong, make them go mad at the sight of this "heresy".

There are still a few things unfinished, but this is basically how he looks like. Mostly created from scratch, took some official images of Yuuzhan Vong and Darth Krayt as reference here, and tried to combine it with a Mando look. The custom helmet design is inspired by the awesome supercommando helmet Marrow Sun on TheDentedHelmet.com created, the same helmet that is used by Novall Talon in MandoMercs. I chose this design because it looks a little skull-like, which helps the whole concept of Vong imitation.

One small detail, which can't really be noticed in this scale, is that his chest diamond (the middle piece of the breastplates) is too small and white, unlike the rest of the armor. That's because Jiriad replaced his diamond with that of his deceased son, Skira, as a constant memory. Also, some parts are supposed to be pure metal, not textured with that crusty surface to resemble the Vonduun crab shells, that really stand out from the armor imitation and make any Vong go mad.

For the hair I edited a template of dreadlocks, made them a little shorter. Also, I added Jiriad's black Kiffar tattoos, but especially the star-like pattern around his right eye doesn't come off that well on this scale. Also, in the helmeted version, his hair is braided and looks out of the helmet, and I even added the hair from some Vong scalps.

Altair looks terrific, nice armor and helmet shading

Mm yes I would most definitely have to agree. He looks very badass

Jiriad looks awesome. I like the Vong imitation armor, and the reason why he has it.

Just bad@$$ work with with him, wicked armor.

Like I said on deviantART; pure awesome.

Woah.
That's really cool!
