T4-K2 Bounty Hunter / Assassin Droid
OK, at long last I have cobbled together ONE rough out of several design bits-n'-pieces sketches of T4-K2!!
Even though this is still just a rough sketch [and I'm pretty sure it has some serious proportional issues to work out], I gotta get a WIP blog going on this guy. As requested, I have looked at HK-47 as well as the MagnaGuard designs for inspiration.I think ultimately the only similarity to either is the central torso area, which has elements of both droids in it.
I gave T4-K2 here a hood to give it the sense of having a personality, kind of a simple affectation for cloth. I was going to also draw some belts and pouches on it, but then I didn't want to cover up all the techie bits... also, the blaster rifle is totally made up, but kinda has vague elements of a Deece?
Cadden, please let me know what you think - as this is still a rough stage, I can tweak some more. And please bear with me, it'll still be a long time before getting further along with this guy. I am just lucky enough to be able to do some sketching at work from time to time. I've still got a lot on my plate otherwise :(

It's looking good. It holds that "I'm intimidating with a blaster rifle, but I look harmless without one" appearance that I was hoping for quite well. The hood is a nice touch. :)
