My idea for a pred

[sandnomad]

Ok, first off i must tell you i'm 6'1' and 357 lbs... and the pred we all know and love is not going to look good on a fat guy... none the less i think i've come up with a good idea! I'm thinking of an empour predator so old he has shrunk with age and gained weight. With a long net robe instead of a bodysuit and dress armour something one pc long in front and back.. just a thought looking for input yes or no....anubis

 

[Sinister]

Sounds like it has potential. I'm not sure about the net robe idea, but perhaps a cloak would work better. That way it would go some way to diguising your sizeable build. It'd be interesting to see some sketches as to what you come up with.

I just wanted to post and say that I am glad that people are working around height and weight differences from the original Predator design to come up with unique suits. I find the results to be better than the copycats.

I've come up with my own designs. The only problem is money and artistic ability.

As for your initial question, I agree with Sinister...a cloak would do better. The idea of an older elder/ancient past his prime as a hunter would be a great thing to see, and to see your personal take on it.

Thanks for the postive word's!!!! I have started a lil bit, will post pic's soon. I have taken the robe idea into consideration, cause i do like it......... looking to get it done by aug for wiz com chicago..

I agree with Sara on this one: while it's the ultimate hommage to rebuild the P1 and P2 predators over and over again, people who have original designs are doing just fine, and deserve some respect

 

[Sinister]

Amen to that. Variety is the spice of life

Try cutting up some really old burgendy curtain material or something as an idea for a cloak....

Brilliant imagination for that... I hadnt thought of it before =D
