OC Zoid concept sketches

[spiralofvertigo]

I figured I would post some older concept art of my Ibex Zoid since I still like these images I just need to do some newer stuff with it.

Here's an old write up with some info about the Pylobex.

An ibex type Zoid. Best suited for mountain terrain. It's a sniper unit. The spires on the back pop open and produce a huge electric field; they can each individually be fired as well, a powerful electrical charge shot. One of the spires is actually a sniper rifle that can be positioned over the shoulder. Stabilizer units on the feet with added ridges to aid in climbing; triple cannons on the chest and rows of exhaust ports along the side of the body help cool down the Zoid after large electrical attacks. It has built in conductors and the only ammo it really needs is for the sniper rifle.







Showing how the sniper rifle opens up.


Showing the barrier it can produce with the spires.


Do any of you guys have Zoids of your own creation? Feel free to show those off! I'd love to see.

That would be a really cool kit! Great work, Spiral!

Thank you Maethius! I would love to make this critter into a full blown kit. If I had any idea of what parts to use I would possibly attempt it sometime.

I might as well share this in this thread too. I made another Zoid; this time a raven. No fancy art of it yet just a simple concept sketch.



It's an aerial fighter Zoid with a gatling gun weapon. It also has boosters coupled with many exhaust ports to allow it to cool down and keep a steady boost up. The gatling gun is very maneuverable and can aim down away from the body to hit ground targets as well.

Omg.....my zoid! I would totally own that! If you make a model of that..I will buy it! Lol got a name for that beauty?

Oh man yes! This is definitely a Zoid you would have. Man if I could possibly make a 3D model of it and do 3D printing or something I would be all over that but I'm terrible at 3D modeling at least at the moment. Though I do want to try and make a custom of it sometime in a way that it can be replicated easily so we will see! I'm glad you like it!

I don't have a name yet but I'm working on it I'll let you know when I think of something.

Here's some extra concept sketches of the beast.

It is a gorgeous peace. I would love to see more if you continue working on it. :-) you rock. It would good as a fuzor partner to my geno too. Lmao
As for a name, maybe something Latin? Or an exotic raven/crow name? I will think of some on my off time to kill the boredom of my job lol

Another really nice one! Simplicity and elegance in a deadly shell.
