Description
Well, here’s another addition to my (sorta) version of the Irken studies… So, now I finally get to introduce the Irken Space-ops. So anyhow, let’s get into the detailed stuff…On the surface of a planet, it may seem as if the Special-Ops commandos only do their job on the ground. Although on the contrary, another variant does the same duty, but instead, they do it in the cold, harsh vacuum of space. These are called the Space-ops. Their job is basically to sabotage or scout for weaknesses of enemy ships. Often they come in pairs or solo, just exploiting the weaknesses on enemy ships. Other times they actually breach the hull with an entire squad of at least 5, ready to destroy a ship from within.
Unlike their land based counterparts, the Space-ops are given bulkier armor to help suit their needs in space. They are known as “Glowers” by most due to the distinct glow emitted from their suits. This comes at a disadvantage since they can easily be given away. Fortunately, their suits have cloaking capabilities, making them totally invisible. Though it drains power from their suits and must be used only when needed.
Other equipment includes metal gloves. (Same one as the Irken elites) These gloves act as built in guns for the space ops. They can either be used for offensive purposes by generating a bolt of energy from the tips of the mechanical fingers or they may be used as heavy duty plasma cutters which help them in breaching a ship’s hull. The left glove is mainly used as a small computer used for navigation and information. The gloves also have magnetic fingers to allow them to climb metal surfaces.
N
ext, they also have magnetic boots which act the same way as the gloves do. Only they help for walking on a ship’s surface when on the outside of a ship.
On the chest of the Space ops are their armor and life
support system. The life support system helps supply air into their bodys as well as provide light energy shielding to protect from dangerous space debris that may tear them apart.
A jetpack, which is standard to most Irken space suits, is also improved by giving it further maneuverability. The space ops may be allowed to steer from left and right, up and down, and ect… Other equipment in the PAK is pretty much the same as most other Irkens.
LOLOLOLONG comment. xD Anyhow, I love how I did the line art. PEN TOOL ROCKS! And yeah, that’s the BEST space background I have ever done. xD Btw… He’s on a resist ship… but it would be impossible to draw the entire thing due to it’s scale xDD
So yeah… That’s all… Any questions just ask.
Space- Ops to me..
Irkens to jhonen
PS: LOL COMBINE REFERENCE xD

I wouldn't want their job. I mean, if I were an enemy ship, and I knew there was some little bastard out there trying to splice my hull open, I'd have radar, thermals and electronics sensors on, and if all three pinged, I'd fill that area of space with enough combined laser fire to turn anything hit into glassed-over metallic pulp.

GLOWY STUFF. <3
Lawl Combine.
Love the idea and design of the suit, it's awesome looking. <3 It's weird though, you wouldn't recognise it as an Irken any more wearing that suit, haha. XD How would they be able to see through that one cyclops eye thing??..
Background is epic, and me loves the colouring. <3 It's so shiny looking and all.

Indeed. I can't help but stare at it. xDD
Yeah. xD
Well they do have their PAK on and that helmet is supposed to protect them. As for the cyclops thing, they have a screen within the helmet that shows what they're seeing.
Oh yes it is. I'm glad you love it. <3

DAMN YOU AND YOUR AWESOME COLORING AND LINEART. I think I'll look into this later for any future reference.
Oh, since you're studying the varying Irken occupations, why not take a crack at those Irken announcer dudes?

Oh you did a very good job on the coloring. If I didn't know it was you who made this then I would think it was an official image of IZ. I love the design and how you did the glow. It's amazing! And the background's pretty awesome too.
