more colors....


...behold:

Color combo One...


....gonna try a few passes with different approaches, textures and palettes. Kinda likin' this one, though!

Okay! The space mechanic progresses...


...now for color!

The idea for this guy came from some brainstorming sessions with a friend - we wanted to see a capable non-warrior in an SF environment. He's good at what he does, and his clothing and equipment reflects this. He wears a uniform, but wears it without military fastidiousness. He moves from pressured to non-pressured environments to perform his mechanics' duties, and is shown here wearing a base pressure suit, additional protective coveralls zipped to the waist; sleeves knotted.
I imagine the suits as a little stiff and confining, and Mr. Mechanic moves a bit less freely than he'd like. He tends to fall into a set posture based on the pressures of the pressure suit -
Harness, padding, insulation and joint armor - this guy is ready to fix some shit in some inhospitable places...
