Polycount - Generals - [ramstar]
polycounter lvl 17
I must admit I am somewhat of a CGChater, hence my lack of posts here. But I have been challenged by a friend from CGChat to make this Dominance War even more epic. So here goes...I sell my soul to Polycount. From looking around I am more than impressed by the quantity of quality artists around here. I hope score some points for evil.
Backstory To say that science ran in the Pockstanus family would be the understatement of the century. Rubicant and his son Aldon were unparalleled geniuses. They revolutionized everything from cosmetics to chemical warfare. The only problem they couldnt solve was finding a cure for Julias rare blood disease. Rubicant would do anything to save his wife. He and Aldon spent many long nights at the lab experimenting with new formulas and compounds.
On one such late night Aldon believed he had found the antidote and wanted to rush it to his mother that very moment. Rubicant was hesitant and felt that it would require more testing. Aldon, being hot headed and arrogant would hear none of it. He began to fill a shot with the precious liquid. Rubicant bellowed for his son to listen to reason, but madness had driven Aldon beyond reproach.
Rubicant rushed to wrestle away the shot from Aldon. Beakers and flasks shattered as the desperate fight raged. Rubicant slammed his son against a console, activating the toxic waste tanks recycle program. Aldon, still clutching the shot, raised it above his head in a threatening stabbing gesture. Rubicant reeled away in horror, his hand toppling a flaming Bunsen burner. At the moment a piercing scream and a loud crash echoed from behind. Julia was standing at the doorway, her face contorted with terror. She had dropped two trays of dinner for her two favorite men.
As Aldon and Rubicant stared blankly at Julia, the flames caught the chemical mixtures on the floor and exploded. It triggered a chain reaction that sent the whole lab ablaze and blasted shards of glass from the toxic tanks. Rubicant was hurled into the tanks themselves. Aldon could not escape a deluge of toxic waste. Julia, bleeding from multiple lacerations, fell to her knees and passed out. She never woke up.
Soon after the tragedy, agents from the evil army swarmed the remains of the lab. They scooped up the dying remains of Aldon, thankful his head was still in tact. They never found Rubicant.
With the aid of the resources from the evil army, Aldon fashioned a suit of armor for himself and created many chemical and biological weapons capable of killing hundreds of thousands at a time. He changed his last name of Pockstanus to his mothers maiden name of Aquarius to further separate himself from Rubicant. He will do anything and kill anyone to get to his father, who is rumored to be doing great things for the good army. The madness will not end until either father or son meets his end on the battlefield.
Before the accident
The killing machine Aldon Aquarius.

Nice design so far Ramstar. I might think of making his fingers more talon like, since thier long length would be good for slashing.
Casey - Thanks! My enemy is strong strong, buy my guy is much taller so butt kicking and slapping will be made easy.
Gauss - Thank you, true polycounter. I have been enjoying your plethora of prolific concepts and ideas. Good to be here.
Killingpeople - hey yourself. Good to be on your side oldboy.
Technobabel - So we meet again. Dost mine adversary dare show his face in enemy territory? And do the chickens over at CGChat have large talons? Good idea, I have incorporated them for your dying pleasure.
Goldo_0 - Thanks man...never seen Bionicle so I looked em up. Some cool designs that I could have used for reference.
Well I came up with a rough variation to original concept that I think works better. Any thoughts? Thanks. I may add machine guns into the arms.
