Long time no Ranger art! The solder was picked by request, and I was itching to paint some exotic mecha. Done an about 3.5 hours, possible a little less.

A Ranger infantryman is caught off guard by a nimble heavy type power armor.
The power armor uses a neural link to control the extra set of arms, rather than slaving to the users arms. It can carry a wide variety of weapons from machineguns to light autocannons while it's shoulders can internally or externally mount additional firepower, such as HEAP rockets.

The main hands of the robots make the small ones to look somehow disproportionate and the style is really different. To me that was the first thing I noticed while watching the picture. To say something, if the small hands will stay I thing they should be more "squarish" and the small arms wider as well. It just looks weird to me.

The light blue eyes look awesome, and the red ones on the infantry armor do as well. Don't you think there should be two colors to differentiate the infantry from the robot (In this case, due to the enmity). Though, the hostility can be noticed instantly, really good!.

It looks in general, futuristic.
What do you think?

Ah well done piece for sure, I love the maintained gesture quality of the underdrawing that is still coming through the final piece I love that there is a slight sepia ton to it and the small hints of color. The slight forshortening is very nice though it seems to be needed on the mech's leg, there is something about that narrowness of its support that throws the balance off for me. Having the foreground figure looking away from the threat also seems a bit odd to me. I think the impact would be much higher with more tense between the two figures creating more of a sense of story to it. All in all those i do love this piece alot and Bravo =).

Does the lower set of arms belong to the operator? Or are they meant for more "delicate" work?

Soldier: "That's it, game over man! Game over!"

Well maybe not, I'm just gonna go ahead and say it, those arms look ridiculously under armored in comparison to the rest of the suit, so unless there's some kind of shield there all it would take one good shot at the right angle and that drivers got a brand spankin' new hole right in his lungs.

I admit, it's more style over substance here :P
