Description JG-LK:"You okay in there?"
M0-18/KZ:"Bloody hell. This thing's tight in all the wrong places. So *egh* why am I wearing this thing? What's wrong with my armour, eh?"
JG-FS:"The tech guys call it a sneaking suit"
MO-18/KZ:"I don't need a fancy *uff* suit to sneak about. Manage it just fine in my nice, comfy beskar'gam"
JG-FS:"Indeed you do but this apparently provides enhanced camouflage, sound reducing properties and exerts pressure on the wearers body to help stop bleeding"
MO-18/KZ:"Stop me having kids more like. When I agreed to test out kit I was thinking more along the lines of fancy weapons or an invisibility suit. This better work, Ferr'o, and you better not let Marik see me in this, Lin. He'll laugh his arse off"
JG-LK:"Ha I won't. Are you alright? It shouldn't take this long to put on"
MO-18/KZ:"Then you can come in here and help me put it on"
JG-FS:"You can manage it just fine by yourself, Kaj, it'll adjust itself once it's on"
MO-18/KZ:"I think I've got it. Right, how do I look?"
JG-FS:"Oh my, that is tight"
JG-LK:"wow"
MO-18/KZ:"Oi! My eyes are up here"
JG-FS:"Oh *ahem* right, sorry. Where were we?"
JG-LK:"The, uh, the mission brief"
JG-FS:"Right, yes, the brief. This should be easy for you, Kaj. We've received intel that one our deep cover operatives that we thought was dead is in fact alive and being held in a military base on Corellia. We can't just ask for them to be released to us because, well, you know as well as I do that we're not the only ones using spies and informants. If we request they hand our operative back to us, the Separatists hear about it and then our friend ends up having an accident or they try escape during transfer and bye-bye information.
MO-18/KZ:"Got it. Since they're on a base on a friendly planet I'm assuming you'll want me to go non lethal on this op?"
JG-FS:"Please. No killing unless absolutely necessary. We need to keep the Corellian government happy but we need that info more
JG-LK:"You don't think you can do it?"
MO-18/KZ:"It'll be easier than it was getting this bloody thing on"
JG-FS:"Good, I'll go let Marik know we're ready to go"
JG-LK:"Don't forget the mask. When worn together they should completely hide your thermal signature from all but the most sophisticated scans. It's not as good as the one in your helmet but you'll have a HUD and the mask can filter out smoke and toxins to an extent. No long walks through poison gas though"
MO-18/KZ:"Nice. Is it easier to take off than the suit? I'm gonna need some help getting out of this thing. I'd ask Ferr'o but the poor lad seemed a bit flustered and Marik would just sit there laughing and watching me struggle"
JG-LK:"I'll help you then, I read the specs so I should be able to get you out of it in no time"
MO-18/KZ:"Ooh, general Komorra, if I didn't know any better I'd say you just wanted to see me naked"
JG-LK:"Ha you wish! Come on, they're waiting for us"

Jedi generals Lin Komorra and Ferr'o Straak brief Mandalorian operator Kaj Zmeya on his assignment while he struggles into a prototype "sneaking suit" that should help him in his mission to recover an undercover operative that has some very vital information. 

After playing through MGSV and Ground Zeroes again a while back, watching the Vinesauce streams of MGS 1&2 and looking through the gorgeous art books I was in the mood to draw something. It was going to be coloured and uploaded but once I'd done the lines I got scared that I'd bugger it up so this has been sitting in my Sta.sh for months while the original stares at me from my sketchbook. Now I've got another picture in the works that's annoying me so this is a distraction.

It's pretty much just a copy of some MGSV/GZ concept art with a different head so it's really Yoji Shinkawa's work but done by a sleep deprived zombie. Thanks for looking

I very much enjoyed the story- very fun dialogue.

I'm glad had to make up for the unfinished artwork with a little story

Why do you say it's unfinished?

I always like the story that goes along with your drawings - I know there is always a story, and it's fun to be able to read the real deal.

I planned to colour it and add a few more details but once I'd scanned in the basic lines I feared I'd mess it up so I just left it as is

I wish I could, this is why I envy digital artists so much. If they see a mistake or just want to touch up a picture it's easy to open it up and continue working on it

If you have any access to a printer, can you make several copies of this - almost like a coloring book, except better - and then continue to add there?  Would allow you to figure out or experiment more and still feel happy with this one, maybe.

My pens just bleed straight through the printer paper I may go back and finish it when I feel more confident, hopefully sooner rather than later.

I don't think my printer can handle that, the scanner barely works too

Print shop? Library?
Just brainstorming, but I can stop.

The print shop idea sounds good! It'll give me a reason to get out of the house enjoy some sun
