hey ladies and gents. im thinking about starting up a pack of all robot aliens, if some one could draw up some refrences that would be awsome

will you be making them? cause if so, sure ill draw some concept art =D

I found 1 at nsarmslab.com

I'm up for helping on a robotic alien pack, ill doodle around and get some refs for ya,

Don't count on anything, I might not be able to get anything worth working with.

i remember a long time ago there were a few very nice concepts floating around of robots that could fit in for aliens

and whats the point of having robotic aliens

Just that, robotic aliens.

Eh, I think the aliens should look more Giger style. His artwork/designs are scary, the Khaara need to be scaaaaaary.

www.giger.com

The thing on the splash of giger could be a onos. I think this is a really cool idea. If it ever comes to fruition I'll use it.

i really reckon the shape of the current aliens is fine. just made more angular & robo-smexy and they'd be pwn. you could also have a story, something like the kharaa bacterium develops a way of melding metal 7/or manipulating nanites, and uses it to augment the different lifeforms.

there was a "terminator" skulk and lerk floating around at one point. not sure on what happened to em tho. would be cool to get all structures & lifeforms in that style

Which is why I think a Giger style biomechanical thing would be cooler. A combination of living tissue and robotic parts. Which would be an even better explanation of your whole "bacterium learning how to manipulate metal/nanites" or however it went.



*edit* There was no sarcasm in any of that, even if it seems like it.

Yeah someone should do these, we need more custom aliens. What ever happened to the Baelrog?

turn the kharaa into the protoss....











....after the borg got done with em
