Description
A concept painting done for the cancelled "Tiberium" game...This was the final approved concept for the player character. The helmet and weapon are actually 3D elements, but the rest is entirely Photoshop painting.
The design was completed in July 2007. From there, modeling the character both for in-game and for promotional uses (at much higher detail) commenced...
I'm not really a character designer per-se - but I've designed a lot of suits, so that was my focus for this character.

That is one nice piece of armor, very tank like, yet form fitting.

You should suggest it to be a CGI animation movie, you can't just let designs sit on your hard drive and get fragmented (or collect dust, which ever term you prefer) You have to give it a fall back plan, otherwise the art of your cancelled projects will never get used! Wouldn't you want to give all of your artwork meaning? (kind of reminds me why I stopped doing CGI artwork, because of too many cancelled projects.)

Aww I wanted this game to come out so badly! Did you know Chris? He was one of the designers I think.

I probably did - but there were several people named Chris! Do you have a last name?

Oh yeah, it was Miller, Chris Miller.

Yes! I haven't seen Chris since EA - if you are in touch with him, tell him to drop me a line!

I've been trying to get ahold of him, but he's probably busy. I'll be sure to tell him if I do!

I will say, it's very refreshing to see a simplistic armor design like Ironman. Too many power armors are overly complicated with needless detail.

Does his weapon use a common brass projectile or some sort of energy beam?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's a rail gun - so it fires conductive rounds that are propelled by electromagnetic force (hence the split rail open "barrel")

Haha sorry if my quesion seemed a bit insulting. I love this picture, i was just wondering if the weapon had some sort of power source. If it did, why wouldnt he keep spare magazines or rail energy. XD
Again you did really well on this!

Oh - I didn't interpret anything as an insult!
The weapon was powered in such a way that it would recharge after use (like regenerative health)
Memory is a bit fuzzy on this - but I think the game designers didn't want to worry about pick-ups like ammo/energy. I might be wrong though! But the weapon was supposed to be fully loaded at the start and not needing too much except time to recharge from its power supply.
