40k Voidsuits

Always like the idea of glass canopied void suits in 40k - i doubt GW will make any so i might have a go myself this year. inspiration: also ...For some strange reson i cant comment on my own blog.. so if you comment and i dont reply , its not perosnal :D
EDIT : Gretchin mentioned promethius, cheers :D which is agreat point also ties into the forever war - which i think might have been my original inspiration for thsi project to be honest.
moeibius's work on the oring al alien seems to have poured into promethius and eventually 40k
Speaking of Moebius i always thought the Elysians were based off his design work for the police on 5th lelemnat to certain degreee
This necromunda dude gives me serious moebius vibes also- I can also see a cross over to promitius and moebius designsin the headwear .. which may cross over into forever war - Ridley scott seems to link it all :)
and finally some actual space suits and some from old movies
more cool suits:

  1. A good series of miniatures to check out is the Muster Majoris, from Alternative Armies' Ion Age range.

    Similarly, I'm surprised you didn't post up photos of the EVO suits from the film Prometheus. I'd have thought they'd be exactly what you're looking for.

    1. I mean, obviously, the EVO suits from Prometheus were meant to be seen as precursors to those used in the original Alien film, so you have those too. :3
