Renegade Cyborg Mutant

Nickname: Squidhead

Lore

In the year 2131, at the end of the great water war, the US started performing experiments on their soldiers somewhere in California. During December, the armor experiments have began and Corporal Zach Tomasi was the first one to don the newly crafted armor. However, to actually equip it, one would require the amputation of all limbs. Reluctantly, he agreed, and was placed into the sturdy exoskeleton. The shock when he saw his crippled body made him insane, but he was sent into a coma. Unexpectedly, the chinese launched a nuclear missile without warning which detonated above Los Angeles. The nuclear fallout reached the labs, and contaminated the food. During a feeding session, Zach's skin started to turn to a sickly green hue, and his artificial arms exploded when he started to grow tentacles. He instantly awakened, with his eyes glowing a warm orange, and with a bellowing roar, he tore the feeding tubes and fled the laboratory, leaving many people behind him dead. Regretting what he had accepted, he lost what remained of his sanity. He roams the land, ravaging everything in his path. He received his nickname for his helmet looking like the body of a squid.

Info
Several disputes about who technically owned North America happened from 2019 to 2054 eventually, President Gaelen ordered Mexico to hand over their land or a missile would stain it. Eventually, the Canadians ended up in this dispute. It was on September 11th 2060 that the Americans then completely lost their minds in madness and let off an Ununquadium Bomb along the Mexican Coast (America had several scientific breakthroughs with the unknown elements, ununtrium, ununquadium, and ununpentium. Ununhexium and ununoctium are still unknown). The bomb chemically altered certain species and the others it killed (humans being one of them). It killed around 3,000,000 Mexicans that day. Realizing what they had done, they sent a Bio Team into Mexico to see if there were any survivors.

It turns out that one of the altered species was Insects. These insects had developed a superior instinct and agility. But they had also developed minds... The Americans then had to lay peace to these creatures. In 2065, President Gaelin had arrived to commune with the creatures of which he decided to call, Narcainians. But when he arrived, they had developed weapons and a small nation. When Gaelin ordered them to stand down, They ripped his head off.

They then dumped the Narcainians into a secluded area in Mexico, where they could be watched constantly. It was called Section 6. But with the Narcainian minds developing faster than the humans could, there was no telling what they could do.

On this specific class, the assasin was trained in stealth and agility. it has the power to maintain long distances and can run up to speeds of 80mph. With its Naracinian Diamondblade at hand, it can easily take down a group of enemies, in a matter of seconds.

Pyramid_he@d, your skin is epic, the concept is epic.. tought.. there's to much stuff in that skin..

Like we get lost in each diffrent colors, wich makes the skin looks very blury when it's not,

You should simple remove the green veins from the arms, that would help alot. and like remove these lights on the helmets (Tuskarr moustache).

Because seriously, most people will mist all the details you added. D:

Mr.Goblin · Oct 18, 2009

Oh shit! I reallised I only have 2 days to finish my skin! D:

Panda · Oct 18, 2009

This is sorta off topic of this contest, but is skinning hard too do?

Mr.Goblin · Oct 18, 2009

To get started, is like learning to write for the first time.. it takes alot of time, but when you get the general idea of it, it goes pretty fast.

ike_ike · Oct 18, 2009

Think of it as doing 4 icons. Only people will actually use icons.

Dentothor · Oct 18, 2009

but its really fun once you can do t.

Panda · Oct 18, 2009

Just_Spectating · Oct 18, 2009

anarchianbedlam · Oct 18, 2009

Kwaliti · Oct 19, 2009

Almost 4 more hours to go!

Just_Spectating · Oct 19, 2009

if we only have like 4 entries, lets extend it

Kwaliti · Oct 19, 2009

For my sake, I hope there isn't an extension because I've waited my ass off for the poll to come. On the other side though, an extension would be great, because I'd like to see some more futuristic stuff.

Dentothor · Oct 19, 2009

i don't think thats allowed. and theres more than 4 entries. lets see,

Dentothor
bigapple
l0w_kwaliti
pyramidhe@d
supertoinkz

But other than that this has been excellent and very improving on my texturing skills. i feel so much better at this than i had before. and i hope you all shared that same experience. May the Best Skin Win.

bigapple90 · Oct 20, 2009

Sabelion · Oct 20, 2009

I am a bit late and missed the contest but anyways.

Here is my early first WIP just to sorta show what theme it will be. (Only a little bit of the head is edited so far tho.)

PS: CAn anybody tell me how to sorta make the eyes glow (I use Photoshop CS3 now)

dansaDisco · Oct 20, 2009

Soft, pretty big brush, low opacity.

67chrome · Oct 21, 2009

If at least three people promise to submit a skin if the contest is extended I'll extend it. As for the poll that will take me a bit to get up, I have to write a 4 page essay tonight anyways. If one of you wants to start a thread about the theme of the next skinning contest, go ahead. It would be nice to have it decided upon before the poll ends

Mr.Goblin · Oct 21, 2009

I would finish my skin
