Yes I know exactly what you mean. Funny enough after I had laid down all the base shapes and started rendering when I saw that. I was mildly put out to say the least! Its a great design what he did, I'm not really sure if I should carry this one on really for fear of being called out for copying (would like to put in portfolio if it turns out any good).
Bit of shame :/
Just had a look at some of the Destiny concept art, its absolutely gorgeous! Going to do some studies from them soon I think, i love the colour pallettes of the arctic and jungle scenes :)
Unfortunately it seems so much of character sci fi design is cliche, same with fantasy, so its quite hard to be original :/ Advice?

Yeh you're right it does conceal the armour a bit too much otherwise :/ I want to try to distinguish it from other very similar designs as much as i can, i dont know how yet though. Any ideas?
