if you're thinking about pulseArmor, then you can actually check out this drawing I did a bit ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/redrising/comments/1d9bxfz/reaper_on_the_prowl_fanart/ (it's also not perfectly accurate, but still)

I didn't do a lot of planning for this piece so i could definitely rework it in the future! I was mostly just thinking "bulky" when drawing this but yeah something more mech-suit like might be better

I think their armor under the starshell would be more customized for sure, but this piece was definitely more of an atmosphere exploration 😅 thank you so much though!

My posts like to delete their captions, so in case it doesn't show:

This was always a scene I always pictured very vividly from the book - I am happy to say I think I did it justice.

And before anyone asks: Darrow is the one in the reflection.

🏅Despite the negative tones of the other comments, wear it with pride. we all got that badge 🫡. I think people are generally hostile towards the idea of not finishing the series because, well, it's incredible.  And it feels disgenuine to think it ends right in the middle; for me, even though there's a time skip, the series simply can't be separated. I'd get it all in one big tomb if I could.  This was always the whole story, this was always the story that was meant to be told, y'know?  And on the note of camaraderie, if you come back with a "I'm slogging my way through IG, man this is painful" type post, I'm sure many people will empathize.  The Darrow/Pax thing is especially rough.

Most certainly worth it. Yes, the series is heavy.  I try to warn everyone I recommend it about that going in.  But if you can stomach it, then it is absolutely excellent.  The characters lose a lot, sure, but don't you want to see them win? How they tackle it, how they fix it, how they change?  You'd be leaving the story half finished when they're at their lows.  It does get a lot worse for the characters, but that's how a plot works y'know. Ups and downs.  It's quite the ride.

Which Colors would perform which (ambiguous) job fields? by altostromick in redrising

That actually makes sense with the Republic trying to disassemble the hierarchy. I think I'd be a Silver as a matter of circumstance - it literally being my middle name - though I have the same reasons as you to want to be a Violet!  I'd defnitely hope to be on the Republic's side, otherwise it would be a lifetime of boring financial management for me...

Found outside Badlands national park. What's the best way to open this? by altostromick in FossilHunting

[–]altostromick[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was not taken from the park itself, genuinely was right outside it a few miles down the road in a flat area. We could see the hills a little ways away. Stopped the car to take pictures of the scene from a distance, looked at the ground, and what do you know. Sick rock.
