Fan Design: MkIX "Medius Armor"

[40k_fan]

Threw together a croppy-paste concept of what my MkIX "Medius Armor" might look like.

 

As an armor type that acts as a midway point between MkVIII "Errant Armor" and MkX "Tacticus Armor" it shares a few traits of the more modern Primaris armor backwards applied to Firstborn Astartes armor. After all, all space marines should have an opportunity at armor that is more or less equivalent, it builds more cohesion that way.

 

As you can see, it's the MkVIII, (which itself is derived of the classic MkVII "Aquilon") but it has added vents, larger breathing tubes, larger ears, new belt buckle and new knee pads. I think it looks pretty cool, even if I did a pretty silly job mashing two armors together. Who knows, maybe you guys can appreciate it.

 

Credit to 40kResources on DeviantArt for the templates I used to make this.

yes, I am aware, you can see the edit lines and it's cropped really poorly... I don't have photoshop, made this in google docs drawings...

I like it! I will say I think it could do with some "original" features to differentiate it from Mk. VII and Mk. X but it does look good. I like the tweaked helmet.

Made a hand-drawn artwork of a space marine Lietenant or Sergeant, Ultramarine, not colored. As you can clearly tell, I am a natural artiste.
