SciFi and Fantasy Art Slaver Warrior by Chris M. Rubenstahl

Okay... another redesign. This is a Slaver, or at least, my most recent version of it. This was an alien race I designed as an enemy for the powered armored legions of Earth (see the Deathstalker picture). My original design was big, and somewhat imposing, but the background I created was weak. So, I started from the ground up and came up with this bad boy, standing 15 feet at the shoulder. They are genetically engineered to be able to survive and thrive in Earth's atmosphere. He has two bladed 'killing' arms, ecah with what is essentially a monomolecular edge, and two manipulator arms, to carry and fire weapons (including human weapons). They run on all 'fours', with the killing arms serving as forward legs. Armored all over.

7 Jun 2002	Katja Peshkova	Loading... Wow! this creature seems a bit dangerous to me...Very well drawn...shading and all... Chris M. Rubenstahl replies: "Thank you! It's good to see that the dangerous aspect of this thing is apparent in the drawing."
8 Jun 2002	Tigger55358	Loading... Looks like a praying mantis thats been working out in the gym for a while. I like the feet Chris M. Rubenstahl replies: "Everyone seems to like the feet, for some reason... I just figured that something that big needed feet capable of supporting it in a variety of environments and conditions."
14 Jun 2002	H. Ching	Loading... This fellow looks mean and deadly. It would actually make a good Starcraft Zerg unit. Haha! Great original design by the way. The shading is excellent too! Chris M. Rubenstahl replies: "Thanks! Your stuff is great, too. I especially like your shading (I envy anyone who can shade properly...)"
5 Aug 2002	Megs	Loading... This picture is awesome! I wouldn't want to run into one of these in a dark alley at night...... Chris M. Rubenstahl replies: "Or anywhere else, for that matter..."
18 Sep 2002	Silvia Maestre	Loading... This is a great picture, you're the man! Your style is... perfect! Chris M. Rubenstahl replies: "Well, thank you, Silvia... I would disagree with the 'perfect' part, but I still think this is one of my better drawings. I wish I still had the patience to draw with a .03 lead again."
29 Sep 2002	Anonymous	Loading... Wow dude this is pretty cool. I like the shading and the freaking ideea of it heh. Imagine seeing one of those coming at ya lol. Chris M. Rubenstahl replies: "I'd probably piss myself if I couldn't run... "
23 Jul 2003	Anonymous	Loading... verny nice drawing. One tiny question, if it ran on all fours, wouldn't it's head be facing the ground? (ie, how would it see) Chris M. Rubenstahl replies: "If you look at the top of its head, it has several auxiliary eyes arranged in a 'V' formation, so it can see multiple angles at once (the slaver would have about a 270 degree field of vision...) Also, when it leans forwards to drop onto all fours, the neck swivels upwards, so the head is facing forwards as it runs horizontally. It reverses the process when it stands up again. And thanks for stopping by and commenting!"
16 Dec 2007	Monica Volcanokitten Christensen	Loading... Yikes. This is seriously a nasty creature. I'd run away screaming if I saw this.
