I've been sketching an 'Aviator' style predator for the past couple days, and would really like to develop the character a little more.
First, here are some very rough sketches I've been messing with. I'm still developing my ideas.
some notes:
His Upper Mandibles will be much larger than his bottom, giving his face a 'beak-like' appearance when closed. This will also lend a hand in his bio mask shape!
I wanted him to keep a predator look, however he resemble some sort of Raptor (vulture/hawk/eagle/owl). I also am liking the idea of Predator tightly winding his dreads to be more of a ponytail. Maybe make his dreads very long to exaggerate this look.
His skin will definitely be a lighter tone, with whites, yellows and blues for toning. I almost imagine his facial texture much like an eagles foot.
As for his armor/weapons, My first impression is his armor should be shiny like that of a knight, or similar to a battle angel type. I don't know if this is the real route I want to go, since I think I'm adding too much fantasy art into Predator. I kind of want to keep him light armor since I envision him with a booster pack to get him flying.
Weapons:
Cannon: I don't think he's going to have firepower, since he's going to be attacking from the air. But that might change.
arm blades: I'm Thinking a 1 piece blade that retracts, but not fully. Maybe have large fixed blades on his wrist bands (AVP style).
His back will most definitely have some sort of jet propulsion and breathing apparatus.
I think his Primary weapon will be some sort of spear or javelin. I may go predator tech, but could lean towards a xenomorph tipped spear. I also imagine some sort of bolas or net, maybe use the AVP net as an alternative.
Let me know what you guys think. If everything turns out, I should have some real sketches tomorrow or thursday, and may work with some clay!
