These past 2 weeks were once again packed with 3D Art, 2D Art, and research. The picture above is what this week has been dedicated to. The guy on the left is Agent Honos, and the girl on the right is his sister Agent Munge.
For last week's Monster Monday, the prompt was to create some sort of limbless creature, i.e., a snake, worm, or snail.
I ended up continuing with my series of Cyborg Grimm from the Agents comics; proof that RWBY is involved in the story. The Cyborg variant of the King Taijitu Grimm differentiates from the original King Taijitu in the fact that it has 1 of its 2 heads is robotic. The artificial head is more armored than the organic head similar to the African Bush Viper and has chainsaws for fangs!
For last week's Figure Tuesday, I drew Agent Mot; leader of the "Terminator Agents." The Terminator Agents are a group of members in the Agents who essentially reference the Terminator films.
For this week's Monster Monday, the prompt was to create a fox-like creature. And the first thing that came to mind for me was Fox McCloud from Star Fox!
For this week's Figure Tuesday, I made another picture of one of the Agents' missions. Last time, I did Mission 1: Jetpack Pursuit. This is Mission 2: Swamp Raid; in which Agent Charge mounts the Agents' high-tech bike the Rocket Cycle and is sent into the Amazon to infiltrate a base run by Dr. Inferno's henchman Break Jaw, guarded by remote-controlled alligators.
Picture of the original set the mission picture is based on for clarity.
For the rest of the week, I did more modeling and art. Agents Honos and Munge fly the Thunderhawk, which is a modified EA-18G Growler fighter jet. This picture shows what I'm done so far in terms of upgrades. While I was at it, I redid a bit of its color scheme. Before is on the left and after is on the right.
One of the Thunderhawk's upgrades includes double racks on its wings; allowing it to carry more weaponry. An example of this would be seen on the F-15 Eagle and this F-15E Strike Eagle. On the F-15E, the double racks carry 2 missiles on either side and in the middle of the rack underneath the missiles is a bomb. While the EA-18G Growler only carries glide bombs, the Agents modified the jet to carry laser-guided bombs.
Another upgrade seen on the Thunderhawk as seen in the 3D model of the USS Orca, is a gun pod on its underbelly. Attacked to it is the L.A.D., or Laser Ammunition Designator. This is used to guide its weapons to target when dropping bombs.
Such a thing exists, but not for the EA-18G Growler. An example of a gun pod can be seen here on the F-35B Lightning II. In real life, since the EA-18G Growler was built out of the F/A-18F Super Hornet, the M61A2 Vulcan gatling gun has been removed from its nose and replaced with electronic boxes that operate the AN/ALQ-218 receivers mounted on its wingtips, which replace the AIM-9 Sidewinder missiles normally found in that position on the Super Hornet. In other words, the Agents have modified the EA-18G Growler to use weapons that the Super Hornet it was built out of could use that the Growler could not use.
As for the 3D side of the house these past 2 weeks, I focused on other parts of the USS Orca.
This includes the JBD, or Jet Blast Deflector,
the catapult to launch planes off the flight deck,
and the arresting cables to catch planes when they land.
That's all I got for these 2 weeks!
