The Shieldturion - Custom Kitbash
« on: 28 November 2016, 23:36:15 »
So, when they made the different Shieldturions for MW:DA, I had every intention of bashing one.

I was originally thinking of doing Yen-Lo-Wang colors because that was supposed to be the first. But, I realized that there were plenty of copy-cats and decided it would be more fun to have something more of a knock-off name.

This one is Mars, piloted by someone who is familiar with and enjoys the grecco-roman pantheon. I styled the paint to look like a Roman Centurion with blood-red skin, glowing eyes, brass and leather armor - thus personifying the god Mars.

Don't know his stats in the arenas, but I imagine he's one of many trying to cash in on a gimmic.

An attempt under better lighting. Hope you can spot the symbology.

Ares/Mars.  Spear and Shield.  Either that, or it was built by Volvo.
