Artist's Comments

"Need something destroyed?"

Name: Bolt
Administrator: Daniel Sheldon
Aliases: The Walking Tank, The Steel Dynamo
Sigil: Yellow and black warning stripes
Gender: Male Cyborg
EGO Custom Level: Zero
Coding Type: Binary
Class: Demolitions Armor
Fights Against: Intolerance
Alignment: Lawful-Good

Abilities: Super strength, martial ability, quick wit, versatile arsenal, machine howitzer, ammunition synthesis, auto-targeting system, mechanized joints, fusion powercore, strong sense of justice, physical endurance, rigid armor plating, wheeled leg propulsion

Weaknesses: Naive, cumbersome, impulsive, reckless, imprecise, selfless and loyal to a fault

Summary: Based on a level zero EGO template designed by Jan, Bolt was created by Daniel Sheldon and serves as his EGO. His coding is standard and his body is entirely mechanical. His entire torso is a super-efficient data-fusion powercore, which fuels his body and allows him to synthesize various kinds of ammunition. His body is covered in near-impervious chrome plates and he wields a distinctively massive gun on his right arm.

Drawing Comment: Bolt's design has come a long way as well. He was inspired by various armored exoskeletons. I've been told that his back armor looks way cooler than his front, so I decided to change things up and use a sort of "over-the-shoulder" pose for this guy. Well, that was more of an ordeal than it should have been. Kudos to ~Tabnir for helping me correct the anatomy on this one. It took me forever to finish this, partly because of how busy I've been with not-school (*squee*), but in the end I think it turned out well.

Read his full backstory if you are interested.

How long does it usually take for you to finish linework on these?
:iconsaipias:
I don't really keep track. Off the top of my head, lineart on paper can take anywhere from 2 to 7 hours, depending on how difficult the details and pose are. This one was definitely towards the higher extreme.

The actual tracing process takes maybe a little over 1 hour, and cleaning up the lines afterwards takes maybe 2. It's quite a time investment, and I get distracted a lot.

Just a side comment about your universe, or at least what you have posted here. Your characters all are very polarized.You have the staunch defender of justice, the loyal sidekick, and the genius/psychotic man hater. Have you thought of adding any more ambiguous characters? Somebody who we weren't always sure which side they would take on an issue. That's just my though, and this is meant as a helpful suggestion, not a criticism.(really like the drawings btw)

Everybody should believe in something- I believe I'll have another drink.

It is morally wrong to allow suckers to keep their money.

Its a kilt! It would be a skirt if I were wearing something under it!

My bad! Saipias is pretty enigmatic, but in a very dark sense. It still looks a little to restricted, character-wise, to me. But hey, it's your gig, and if I'm wrong what ever, if not you can always add more characters.

These are merely the characters as they are INTRODUCED. They have a lot of room to grow and rub off on one another, especially considering I haven't specified any of the actual EVENTS of Saipience.

And of course, there will be more characters as I get a chance to draw them up. Thanks for reading these, by the way, but make sure you know the whole story before you comment.
