Two Session Portrait

Monday Night Two-session portrait 

All hail... Lasso Tool!

Inspired by Scott M. Fishers presentation at the IMC, I threw together this quick portrait using only my mouse and lasso tool. All hail... Lasso Tool!

final rework of IMC concept

I have to cut the cord, I know more changes are inevitable, but this is a strong idea.

more concept changes

new concept start

rough concept for "old mans war"
synopsis:

Old Man's War
Military SF book cover.

This is series of books in which older people (men and women) can exchange their old bodies for enhanced young bodies. The catch, they are then obligated to two years fighting an incredible dangerous war on far off planets. And while they are now strong and young, they are also green. Show a male lead fighting an alien creature. You can show other troops as well, remember there are both male ad female infantrymen.

They wear thin self-healing battle armor. It is described as a leotard but feel free to cheat that a bit to make it look more interesting. They also have belts and packs with hightech versions of what you would expect a soldier t have — knifes, tents, etc.

They are fighting the Consu, a bug-like alien. They walk on two legs, have arms, but they also have large slicing, curved, razors coming our from above their arms.

This will give you a lot of background.
