I never worked more on that pic of Tetsuhara after I shifted to this new rig. Guess I'll work on it from scratch:

The head reminds me of the Mackie  ::)
In turn they tested each Clan namesake
In trial against the ice hellion's mettle.
Each chased the ice hellion, hunting it down.
All faild to match the predator's speed and grace.

Considering some art of MD's have them looking completely like robots, I'd say that's not robot-y enough.

Yeah, some MD go the RoboCop-meets-Darth Vader route, just enough meat to process nutrients to the brain and neural system alive. The MD in Necro Nightmare is noted to no longer having a actual voice box and thus sounds very machine like when he 'speaks,'

Interesting helmets on the top two, look a bit Conquistador-ish.

And/or the guy on top of an Imperial tank going "Drive me closer! I want to hit it with my sword!" 

And seriously amazing art, the infantry, the designs, the characters, superb!
