I think that is some artwork from a JRPG.

Was meaning more like Swann from the campaign by block like. As for the angular look, just look at the cybran from supreme commander.

The gun looks a bit flat on the sides. Been thinking, the regular will need three different styles of shooting a rifle. The Tommy (butt to shoulder like the army handbook), the Chicago (classic say hello to my little friend pose) and the Rambo (dual wielding).

You could also go for the blocky or angular look too.

Had a thought, what about an arm cannon for your regular (megaman style)?

Dang, polygonium solves everything!

Either way the character is going to need power armour or a can of vitamin x to wield those.

You can always add them as a .m3a later for different fighting styles. Also you do not want your average thug to be a professional fighter.

Was just thinking of a classic unarmed combat spread like from any generic action movie/game. At least until the unit finds gear if ever.

Nice start! Is that an animation bracket that makes him hold up his arms like that defensively? Could certainly imagine a shield attached to the forearm if so.

Haymaker next?

Thinking good old fashioned punches and a few kicks and maybe a karate chop.

I take it you will be adding some detail to the handle and flat part of the blade with normal textures?

@TaylorMouse: Go

Does he have some melee attack animations?

His face still looks like he has just caught his girlfriend cheating with his best friend.

@TaylorMouse: Go

Panda looks good but the regular armor looks slightly funny. Upper plates look a bit big and the lower ones look very narrow and not curving around the arm enough.

Import it to a map and give it a weapon/ability that makes it use the animation combined with a Launch Missile effect.

No melee attack or grenade/tear gas throw?

His stance looks a little stiff though but that might just be you have not got animations yet.
