JackieTheJackal Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Made some custom Archwings for my favorite Warframe, Valkyr! Archwings are cool, and ideas are buzzing through my head of all the possibilities. This is the first! The Vengeance Archwing, Featuring a giant Scythe-looking weapon. More Archwings are other Warframes to come! Feedback is appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishworshipper Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 While I like it overall, there is a petty niggle I want to address. Archwings, as seen in Devstream 39, attach at the lower back area whereas yours seems to attach just below the chest. While probably just a stylization choice (like the frowney face on your Valkyr), it's something that's minorly irritating to my detail-oriented brain. But I still like it, especially it's giant scythe of doom. +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should be more like 'wings', usually attached to the upper back region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishworshipper Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 (edited) I don't like DE's direction of placing the archwings on the lower back. It should be more like 'wings', usually attached to the upper back region. I kinda like the lower-back style. It's unique, and it makes me think about why, lore-wise, the wings are attached at the lower back rather than the upper back. My best guess would be to keep the wings out off the way. If you're swinging a sword that's bigger than you are, the last thing you want is for your arm or the sword to hit a giant piece of metal during the wind-up.

SarcasticShepard Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I don't like DE's direction of placing the archwings on the lower back. It should be more like 'wings', usually attached to the upper back region. Lower back is closer to the actual center of gravity on a humanoid, makes maneuvering in zero-g much easier. Plus, attaching the winks at chest height would block all view from where our camera angles stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaokasalis Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 (edited) Looks really cool though what kept bothering me when i looked at it was the end section of the melee weapon. To me the perspective feels a bit of. Kinda like its almost hitting the archwings. Also just wondering but have you planned any abilities for this awesome archwing?

Imaru Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 If that is what Stalker's Archwing looks like, I'll let him penetrate attack me any day if he can drop the blueprints for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVerdict Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I love the concept and especially that scythe, though I wonder how any Tenno would have the strength to carry that thing around in space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishworshipper Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Oh, completely forgot about that -facepalm-. Still, that scythe is HUGE. Indeed, swinging it would be a pain due to its size and inertia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
