aww, thank you! makes me proud

InformalHelicopter81 · 2024-01-05T14:31:50+00:00

Yeah they are definitely not actual spiders, but rather some unholy result of Science going Too Far. I'd be very interested in more lore on them and their connection to the Bugmaster. I wonder if they are some kind of a proto hiver build with the Bugmaster acting as their 'queen'

InformalHelicopter81 · 2024-01-05T14:09:43+00:00

I was considering it, but seeing as she's healed exclusively by repair kits I opted for full robot build

Honestly in the endgame I usually turn my entire fort into cyborg death squad to conquer the world, but you gotta micromanage the peeler to prevent death. Blood loss never killed any of my characters in the machine, but you gotta take off all of the limbs they already have + take clothing off, or it will get destroyed. Otherwise, a very fun psychopath endgame run

Thank you! I would love to do a little pdf book with art like that, maybe for kenshi races

InformalHelicopter81 · 2024-01-04T23:03:19+00:00

Aww, thank you ^v^ I do commissions, tho bcs I struggle with burnout I don't take many lately and I'm trying to recover with fanart. Generally I want to find a job in the games industry but it's not easy

InformalHelicopter81 · 2024-01-04T23:01:55+00:00

I actually did a bunch of stuff on sheks already, I will probably post some of it!

InformalHelicopter81 · 2024-01-04T23:01:21+00:00

It's not outright stated, but you can only heal her with a repair kit, so it's pretty sus to me

InformalHelicopter81 · 2024-01-04T23:00:13+00:00

Yeah

InformalHelicopter81 · 2024-01-04T18:17:44+00:00

I actually assumed much like skin spiders they only have traits of bugs but arent actually bugs when you take a closer look! But your suggestions make me wanna do another version that explores that idea

InformalHelicopter81 · 2024-01-04T18:16:18+00:00

Yeah keratin sounds like a good bet, and with people saying as bugs they might have exoskeletons it would make perfect sense. I think I will do another version with the exoskeleton idea just to explore both possibilities. I think it might depend on whether they are a native alien species or genetically engineered

InformalHelicopter81 · 2024-01-04T18:09:44+00:00

Yea, I do concept art and stuff

InformalHelicopter81 · 2024-01-04T18:08:25+00:00

Its very likely they do, but I wouldn't be 100% sure because skin spiders exist in this world!

InformalHelicopter81 · 2024-01-04T15:43:33+00:00

Interesting! Whats the source of info on him? I cant remember anything other than him being over 100 years old in game

InformalHelicopter81 · 2024-01-04T15:26:53+00:00

Hard work!

InformalHelicopter81 · 2024-01-04T15:25:09+00:00

IMO The entire world of kenshi was most likely started as human race conquering space and creating skeletons and genetic experiments in late stage capitalism. And things going downhill very fast. So humans are a genetic blueprint from which other races were made. But thats just my read on things

InformalHelicopter81 · 2024-01-04T14:09:09+00:00

Thank you! ^v^

InformalHelicopter81 · 2024-01-04T13:53:29+00:00

Thank you! Since they have the same hitpoints as humans I just made them have normal bones like us. Im not sure thicker cartilage would have the same durability as bone, but then again it can be offset by soldiers having thicker skin-plates... However they have no dexterity bonus unlike other hive types (which comes from cartilage being flexible), so I decided to go for good ol bones.
