Another big bad for the Rocket & Bounce [link] rogues gallery, Carapace. Ruthless, cunning and calculating, his organic armor can take on numerous forms to pound his adversaries into submission during combat. Some say Carapace's oversized armor is a reflection of his ego, but those who've stood between him and one of his objectives have rarely walked away in one piece. (so shut yo' mouth, foo's, he'll woop ya' )

Took a while to get the look right on this guy, but I'm really happy with it now. Definitely some Guyver influences mixed in there for those of you familiar with the series. (so good)

So you think he looks sort of sticky... uhm, what? lol

stunning pic and very scary looking dude. I love the feeling of weight this has. I imagine him finding R&B hard to squish though as the pair of them are very quick where he looks more lumbering. Anyhoo, awesome work, Gene! :D

Ugh. I really struggled with the mass of this guy in the early going. There's a fine line between imposing bulk and awkward, dumb strong guy bulk. I imagine his movements would be Colussus-lumbering as opposed to Blob-lumbering. And you're right about R&B, they won't get squashed too easily, heh. Not sure how they'd be able to slow this guy down though (I should probably figure that out, lol). Should be a fun story at some point.

Anyway, thanks for the post. :D

naah definately not like the Blob. I had Rhino in mind when I said lumbering ;). A damage dealer but not as quick on his feet as the kids. ;) Looking forward to seeing him in Rocket & Bounce :D
