Character Design for competition

Just wrapped up my entry for the Reckless Deck/Art Order Figures Competition.

The Reckless Deck is a cool card deck to help prompt creativity.  As part of the Kickstarter the creator did for Volume 2, there was a reward of miniature figurines.  And there is a contest to use certain cards from the decks to create characters for a chance for one’s work to be one of those figurines.

So here is my entry.  I started it a while ago but felt overwhelmed with other work.  So I dropped it.  But then I saw that it was ending this week, so I spent a couple days refining and finishing it.

  • Dragon Attributes
  • Claymore/Great Sword
  • Heavy Artillery Laser Cannon
  • Mech Armor
  • Cloak
  • Bow and Arrow

The Northern fields are some of the most dangerous places in the country of Dleosu.  There are of course the lava flows and chasms, but the worst thing is the dragons that inhabit the region.  Unfortunately, it is still a strategic location, which is why the Defensive Reconnaissance Attack Knights Elite Force dispatches their Scouts to the region.  

Equipped with insulated armor, heat-reflective cloaks, helmets with heads up displays and armor based on the biological protective properties of dragon scales, these lone snipers guard the fields against all intruders.  The spikes on the Scouts’ shoulder pads are actually dragon teeth.  These are a mark of rank and status among the troops, but also have the bonus of making dragons more… respectful of the trooper.  

A Scout’s weapons are a Claw – an extendable one-edged sword, and the CLY-1318 DragonBane Sniper Rifle.  The DragonBane is a heavy-hitting piece of equipment, because not only do the D.R.A.K.E.-S need to be able to disrupt any military force from a great distance.  One also never knows when one of the dragons may decide to get too close.
