Alpha Squad : Status MIA _fan art

[ActsOfBob]

I didn't play the original but I loved F1 & F2! This may or may not tie into the Wasteland lore but I figured that an original experimental squad could have been sent out and "lost" indefinitely. This squad has been captured, tortured and "altered" to serve an advanced mining corporation 's needs (security/reconnaissance).

It looks neat, though I don't think there's any corporations left. A mad AI forcing them to undergo cyberization would be par for the course.

Ahh thanks RoboRev, I wasn't sure about the corporations angle. The mad AI certainly plays out quite well for the image though. The first squad going MIA and being altered by a cybernetic "madman" paints a very interesting scenario.

@caleb very nice, I really like it!

That's some gorgeous use of color there and wonderful detail on that headgear. Bravo!

I love the blue glow on their protruding innards. Actually, this is exactly the sort of "radioactive glow" tint I'd like to see in Wasteland 2. It's pleasant to the eyes and a welcome change from all the stereotypical "toxic waste" green you see in most games or even films. You might want to use a slightly different shade of blue, though, so it doesn't immediately draw connections to the Husks from Mass Effect .

@ scout
Cheers - Thanks.
@ Stiffkitten
Thanks!
@ TAPETRVE
I used a minimal amount of blue to suggest a cybernetic/ghoulish connection without overdoing it. Funny I actually started with a green range but changed it! Glad you like it . Cheers.
