Okay, I'm done on this now.
Prob spent around a day total from the initial pencil sketch to this, would like to put more detail but since I will be building it as well I will use my time on the final model and renders.
Need to move on to designing a soldier suit and some weapons...

Nice stuff, looking forward to seeing more, where is this place? underground or is it in a bunker type building?

You have a script or synopsis to take a peek at?

It is underneath the PFT building. It connects to the main room with the two guards in.

Other than that you will have to wait for the updates to the story to see more, which will be coming soonish.

Although left it to do another much better version now though, but might not show anyone that until it features in the story though Hmmm...

Keep it close to your chest especially 'tariq' looking version.

Im sending you an early concept design I have for a seriously big Set piece, its so huge its just laughable, in fact look up Favela Rochina at google and smell my madness!!

Yeah, I think I will keep it for now.
It's just that the one posted is pretty shitty. Oh well, all in good time.

My yahoo mail is down for maintenance at the mo, but did a quick search and I get the picture. That's gonna be a job and an 'arf.

Ok well not gonna reveal the new better second version of the Talos Suit in case it becomes the final and dont want to spoil things as it will feature quite soon in the story.

So here is a quick unfinished initial sketch of a character called Jack from the second chapter.

Hey all.

Been busy with other projects but managed to get some time back on Talos now over Christmas.

I have just finished another page and am close to getting the next update ready for the site.

In the meantime here is a fairly quick concept painting based off the sketch I did earlier for a new character in the second chapter.

I recently updated my graphic card drivers and was playing with my colour so not sure how this looks on other peoples monitors so your feedback would be appreciated.

Cheers
