Ash Penumbra Helm [WIP]

[SirChadimus]

Hey everyone,

Here is a WIP for my first Tennogen Item, an Alt Helm for Ash. I wanted to try to work in a hood covering look, which I thought fit well with his theme. Still lots to figure out with some of the mechanical bits, but this is my current concept sculpt. C&C is welcome and appreciated.

Looks pretty promising so far; reminds me a bit of an Elite from Halo. My only suggestion would be to integrate the organic and technological elements a bit more.

Yeah agree with you there, it also reminds me of the Elites, and as well kinda reminds me of Arbiters of Hexis.

Not a fan of the flat-ish top of the head ( it would work on other frames), it doesn't go along with the general direction of Ash designs either. but I'm liking the rest of it. Also, consider making a smoother transition between the top of his head to his face, but definity do not make it one thing..

Looks like Baro

Thanks for the feedback everyone. Here is some more exploration of some ideas. I tried to blend the organic/tech parts more. I'm not sure about the circular bits, as DE indicates you should avoid them, however, I've seen lots of skins use them. No idea what I'm doing with the back of the helm yet really.

Curious, an Ash helmet that doesn't scream Japanese folklore, Edginess or stereotypical ninja...i dig it. Can't wait to see how you proceed with it.

Here is an updated concept sculpt, worked on refining the back a bit and adding a more interesting sillouette.
