(Update Aug18) 3-Post Concept Art Extravaganza!

[EVAtemplar117]

Welp, I decided to redraw all of my ideas (and then some), so here we go!

 

Also, special thanks to DE for inspiring me to draw after two years of not even touching a pencil.

 

And without further ado, lets start with some weapons:

Tenno Weapons:

Tenno Energy Blade:

Proposed Names: Fissure, Fusion, and (my favorite) Muramasa and Masamune

-Unstable, but powerful energy blade requiring a portable generator/sheath

-Charge attack uses energy blade, normal attacks use sheath as a blunt weapon

-Normal variant has an unstable, unrefined blade that hits at a wide angle

-Prime variant has a refined-looking blade that has a narrow, but long reaching blade

 

The weapon that started it all

-Grineer Pistol is a simple Lato Skin

-Tonfa is short-range blunt weapon

Corpus Weapons:

Corpus Ambush MOA and Shotgun:

Ambush MOA

-MOA that hangs of walls, watching for intruders

-Drops down with small shockwave, uses a laser shotgun

Corpus Cryogun:

Space Pirates:

Original Idea by Vard: https://forums.warframe.com/index.php?/topic/15939-suggestion-new-faction-space-pirates/

Seriously, check his ideas out first

 

Pirates and Privateers:

The pirates hail from the many independent colonies within the system (they can't be grineer or corpus). As such, they wield both weapons from their militias, as well as capture gear.

 

The pirates spit into two (indistinguishable) factions: plain, straight, thieving pirates, and those with "Letters of Marque" who aid the independent colonies from Grineer expansion and Corpus indoctrination.

 

Obviously, the first group will raid ships and is actively hostile towards the Tenno. But the second group we could cooperate with (we both rely on hit-and-run). They would also facilitate trade (between each other as well as offering random loot boxes for sale from raided ships).

 

And now some Concept Art:

Pirate Raider:

-Ranged unit that uses militia rifles (may also use Grakata and Deras)

Pirate Scavenger:

-Melee unit that uses makeshift cutlass (may also use Machete and Prova)

Pirate Molotov:

-Semi-ranged unit that throws Grineer Grenades and Molotov Grenades

Pirate Charger:

-Close-range unit that uses Militia Shotgun (and Sobek)

Pirate Creeper:

-stealth unit that uses silent SMG

Pirate Loader and Guardian:

-Crate Loader now used to raid ships

-two types: Melee loader, and and modified loader with a Gorgon and Ignis

Pirate MOA:

-Stolen MOA with Twin Grakata strapped on

-Militia Pistol:

Name Needed

-Militia auto-pistol

Admiral "Spacebeard"

-Old admiral who now aids the Privateers in their guerrilla war with the Grineer and Corpus

-Helps facilitate trade between other Privateers and the Tenno

[EVAtemplar117]

Now for some my Generic Boss Concepts:

 

Grineer Assault Ship:

-Assault ship that drops of Grineer Specialists

-attacks with Machine Guns and Dual Orgis

-Leaves when drops off units, comes back when units are at half damage between all of them

-Grineer Specialist use Experimental Boltgun made from captured Tenno Tech and a laser Kukri

Grineer Boltgun:

Grineer Kukri:

Corpus Osprey Queen:

-Giant osprey that releases Leech Osprey

-Created shield to these osprey

 

Now for some Warframe Concepts:

Puppeteer/Jester Frame V2: (Less Loki, more NiGHTS)

Name Needed

Old version:

Potential Powers (in no particular order):

-Helix Throw: Throws puppet's upper torso, spinning with arm-blades extended

-Iron Maiden: Throws puppet's upper torso, Chest opens up and restrains and damages target, allows for free hits

-Marionette Rush: Puppet assembles, rushes around as a melee-type unit, acts as decoy as well

-Whirlwind: Entangles nearby enemies with wire, forcing them to fire on each other, as each limb of the puppet produces blades and swirls around warframe

More Coming Soon!

These look pretty good :P

If you had some good coloring into it, I bet it'd look like the real deal lol

 

Really though, nice job designing these :D

 

Edit:

Second batch of pictures wasn't expected :L

But it gives a general idea of how it would look if that faction is added. Hope your ideas get through :P

Infested Vomit Shotgun.

 

11 out of 10.

[Alighierian]

and here I was thinking the lancer had a rocket launcher... it's just a pike stabber... which would kind-of rip people in half... just a bit

 

pretty nice designes, I'd love to see a number of these in-game

[Eulo]

DAT INFESTED SHOTGUN

+1 Nice Drawings!

[Yanga]

Should definitely try to convince the DE staff to take a consideration into adding these... most of these weapons would be pretty cool reinforcements and the others can probably be research weapons :P

Plus, there is eventually going to be a time for them to add a new faction, so having these ideas around would probably get it added in game. If I had a idea added in game, I'd be excited to see it lol.

Seeing how you added the 3 posts you mentioned, do you still have more pictures/ideas ready or WIP? Want to be sure to see it when it pops up.

Infested Vomit Shotgun.

 

11 out of 10.

Made me think of the "Fart-gun" from Despiceble me XD

[Lactamid]

This is great :)

Could you make a trap-user?
Like in the space-pirates thread. if the're not that heavily armored maybe they prepare with traps?

 

Also, faction is missing a flying unit or something to break the "silhouette-line".

Retrofitted MOA is a good addition, but maybe something else too.

 

I'd love a "scavanger droid" - Walks on ground and acctually STEALS the pickups. But when you kill it it spawns a high number of pickups + a high chance of 1-2 mods.

Unit will be able to teleport away (hard to track) or be able to warp out/ cloak,

I post these in hopes my ideas at least strike "something" in the DE staff.

 

Also, I do have a few ideas left to fill out my last post :)

Oh, these are some nice ideas, I can already envision them...

Update 1: New Warframe Concept Added! Check it out!

[matto]

Need crossbow, and Kusarigama.

About the Fuma shuriken, Glaive is already here for a retractable throwable weapon.

But good ideas here !

[Lactamid]

hehehe, jester-frame XD
I think Loki is the official "triskster-frame" with the jester-hat reference but it could be fun. Pupeteering is great in some games but may be a bit odd here. Has to be done carefully.

Nyx also has some pupeteering with mind control and we might get some out of style things of the sort comming from the new Necro-frame.

Vauban thinks he has traps too so a warframe with pupeteering/traps is perhaps unlikely (3 others already).

It would have to be very different in use/style to seperate it from the others.

 

Also THE SHOES! XD do they come with bells?

 

Plz don't take this to hard, just what's comming up inside my head.
The work is fine, no critique there, just thoughts of use.

Don't worry about it, criticism is important for improvement.

 

Unlike Nyx or potentially the Necroframe, this frame is built to control the puppet around his neck, not so much enemy units, and I never considered him as a trap user. As for the jester theme, I just thought of puppets and entertainers that use them when making the design.

[humbleion]

love the pirate idea

[EVAtemplar117]

Update 2: Complete redo on my Puppeteer Warframe: less Loki, more NiGHTS! (Post 3)

aswell as some ideas for powers (though suggestions are welcome!)

[ProjectKaeon]

Well done.

[arch111]

Great concepts all around! At least one more faction is needed, in my opinion more.

Pirates are a good idea, as a counter weight to the factions.

[TrashSpider]

that Kukri knife, I want (actually own one), and some of these design look similar to 40k such as the Militia rifle and pistol, looks like the bolter and bolt pistol

[Vard]

awesome dude, added a link to this under your space pirate picture on the first Pirates post!

Spacebeard looks awesome, but i worry his name is too silly to actually make it into warframe

Edited August 30, 2013 by Vard

[Ptolemaios]

The privateers seem like a really cool faction and would also naturally allow DE to widen the Lore of Warframe by expanding the conflict to Colonies, maybe from a different star system, that are attempting to remain independent from the grineer and corpus(as OP stated).

 

also adding a new weapon based on the MP-40 submachine gun, would be awesome(thought of it when i saw the weapon the Pirate creeper held).

[Bati148]

Do you think that you could make some bounty hunter concept art? Becouse I think bounty hunters in Warframe would be a cool idea.

like a corpus bounty hunter? or just a normal one? either way, sure
