So i don't know anything about coding or spriting, but i've been thinking about ways in which to capitalize on the frantic, close-quarter bunker fighting that often happens in an endgame in CC. So i've come up with an idea for a faction.
I'd write a really contrived sci-fi fanfic backstory, but that usually falls on its ass. So i'll say that these are natives to a planet that, beneath the blank surface, is tunneled to the core with bunkers. Its inhabitants are a race of people not unlike the cave-people from that movie "The Descent", but who have developed a tribal society based upon found technology and animal worship (specifically the bird).
So i'm thinking long, spear-like main weapons and short small-arms. No mechs, just an endless stream of savages who are adept at tunnel-warfare.
Anyway, i've got a few sketches i've done of what i want them to look like, and a helmet.
This is the brave, the most common and versatile unit in the fighting force. armed with both a machete and a highly-inaccurate submachine gun (not pictured) and wearing and respirator that is both functional and ceremonial, he's meant to look scary and be quick. His shoulder-coverings are made from the skins of the tunneling ground-birds his society worships in the same way the Native Americans of the Great Plains revered the buffalo.
And here's the lighter "scout" equivalent. He commonly carries a short, bolt-action rifle i have yet to do a good mock-up of. He's wearing a similar feathered cape.
And here's a helmet i've designed. i sort of used a picture that was posted on here (i can't remember the artist's name for the life of me) as a jumping off point. Anyway, it's the civilian model that light troops could wear.
I could expound on all this, if anyone's interested in helping me make a faction out of it.
. But seriously, those are really good, but never take their armour of...
