Archer Concept

PREVIOUS: [link]

Info: Finally! A brand new original deviation! This... is the Archer Combat Exosuit, an armored and heavily armed soldier. These cybernetic sumo wrestlers are designed to shrug off all manner of small arms weapons and provide potent defense against everything from soldiers to light vehicles. Even attack helicopters will quickly come apart under an attack from the Archer's four cannons. The Archer suit is fully powered and provides numerous enhancements to its wearers including augmented strength, mechanical balance support and real time targeting and threat assessment. Yeah, I like this design. The disadvantages of this weapon system are pretty obvious; its wearer is tightly cramped inside a grinding titanium tomb that stands over 7 feet tall and weighs in excess of 1.5 metric tons. With its mechanical enhancements you can run pretty fast but maneuvering quickly is out of the question so you better start to pray when a tank or RPG trooper has you in their sights.

Trivia: Like the previous design -the Webcomic Archivist Guard’s: Asp, this is a conceptual design. I am pleased with the smooth, bulky appearance of this equipment. Everything from the GDI wolverine to Samus Aran inspired this ugly brawler in one way or another. What military faction do these forceful juggernauts belong to? Come on now, isn’t that obvious? The virtual reality legion of the Deviant Armor cyberspace task force of course. Doesn’t the matte gray color scheme and Fella decal make that evident enough? The Webcomic Archivist Guard and Deviant Armor, two separate factions... am I about to declare a virtual war against the very website I’m a member of? Heheh what active imaginations you all possess...
I would like to extend my thanks to: Fayth-in-Flyght for creating the DeviantArt symbol brush I used for the chest plate. Great work on that Fayth!
