WARFRAME CONCEPT - "Thraex" the Gladiator
What started out as a fun experiment to create an Umbral Valkyr of sort turned into something entirely different.
Originally I wanted to design an infested-themed warframe called "Oculus", with his abilities focusing on - you guessed it - sight and weapons. He was to see through walls, carry heavy weapons, can tank hits, and dominate the Index...but I just go so busy the idea sat collecting dust. While I was experimenting with Yoji Shinkawa's style, I decided to give Oculus new life.
Comparison between Corpus and Tenno's versions.

6 - Tenno-tamed version number 2.
5 - Tenno-tamed versions number 1.
4 - Abilities.
3 - Body details. Teeth seem a bit aggressive so I switched to something more ominous.
2 - Working out the body details, and the helmet. You guys have no idea how long I've wanted to work those triangles into a design. Deus Ex HR FTW!
1 - You know what Alad V does to warframes he captured.
Practicing first copying some of Yoji Shinkawa's work.
