Hey, I just knew about the project and saw all your images.
I like this image. I think It's very well drawn, the style of the characters is nice and their design seems clear.
The three guys in green seem to be on trouble with that inspector and all the soldiers sorrounding them. That's what I get of the image in a short look.
About the soldiers uniform, I love it! I saw the old one and I like this uniform more. I think it makes them look tougher or more like authorities, also those wolves wear it very well (I love the boots and the helmets you put on them)

I'd like to know more about the story of the project.

Also, I read that Vaergas and Griggs are antagonists, so the soldiers in general are enemies of the protagonists who may fight or chase them?

Hello, and thank you for being so interested in my project; I'm glad you like it so much.

Indeed,  Seyumei did a really great job on this one, there was also some reference work done by  Dolphiana; so everything that turned out great visually is thanks to those two fantastic artists.

Yeah the three guys in green are basically bandits who work a cover job as mechanics; the auto shop was being used to launder illegal salvage from the black market to the regular market (so the salvage could be sold for resources on the open market that the bandits could use).

Indeed, I've been slowly updating the visuals of the project and I kinda decided the old look of the Soldiers lacked detail so I had a bit more added; right now they are supposed to resemble what a more modernized soviet union garrison trooper would look like. (The grey wolves are supposed to be a rough equivalent to them, with a few changes by me).

Sure, feel free to ask whatever you'd like. I might have more of the story information on my DA page (under the same name), so feel free to check that out as I might have more current (and more of a selection) of text postings there that detail the story and background a bit better. (Though some things have changed over time).

They used to be antagonists in the first draft of the story; that's back when Brack, Arc, and Xerina were the central focus. Now the story is more between three character groups, Griggs and Vaergas being one of those three groups. Hence that's mostly just old information, though I'm glad you actually looked at the old stuff, hardly anyone does these days.

Thanks for your interest and detailed comment. Feel free to comment on any of my other stuff. Though I'm much more active on DA, so I'll see comments faster over there.

Much appreciated.

Hii, thanks for answering!

The story changed from the early despcriptions... I see. The multiple point of view of different character groups probably make the story more interesting. I'll read the texts I see in your DA that you say then.

So the uniforms are inspired in Soviet Union ones? As I said I think they look great. Yeah, they may lacked detail before, but It's nice you kept the cholor scheme for the new more detailed ones (dark blue and black are in my opinion the best choice in uniforms for police, guards, etc. cause is often related to "authority")

The art style is great, so good job to the artists. I like how even being all (nearly) same colored wolves they don't look like clones. Some look tougher, some look serious and some look kinda cute, like the one in the newest image with Juno/Cassandra xD

Of course (and thank you for asking such a detailed question).

Yeah definitely a bit, I've been working on this project for about six years now; and there have been major changes once I started making major progress on the script that made the story/setting more interesting, or the plot more dynamic. (The Script is done now, has been for a year or two; lately I've just been trying to get more concept art to go with it, and finish up the voice acting, which has been a pretty monumental task so far).

Indeed, partially anyway. Mostly the stars on the helmets, those sash things (which are ponchos), and the diagonal cross strap. Naturally the Soviets didn't have bulletproof armor though, so I modernized certain bits to kinda make it work with a more near future setting.

And yeah I figured blue would be a good color for the faction that considers itself very oriented on legal order, industrial production, and distribution; also the Volterrans (the lions) are red because they are based loosely on the Romans (if they were also more modernized), who had the red color way before the soviets did. The color red also fits the Volterrans better anyway, as they are the more personal ambition focused, militaristic, wealth seeking, and expansionist faction (like Rome was).

Indeed, originally they were going to be exact copies of each other; just some with goggles or face masks; though I later decided that was a bit too lazy and started mixing it up. I like that you noticed that they aren't always serious/gruff looking, and that's on purpose. These guys are supposed to be a far flung frontier garrison, on a planet that's not very important. Hence the garrison receives the recruits that would be considered too untrained/undisciplined for most other postings.

*** Essentially it's a quirk with the setting being Korsun specifically, that the only law and order is a low tier garrison that's barely functional. It's the subject of many of the character Grigg's early difficulties, and I think its a good way to explore the difficulties of inheriting command of a force that needs a lot of improvement and possible reorganization.

*** But yeah the artists did a fantastic job making them all look a little different, mostly without any direct input from me either.

Let me know if you have any other questions or comments and I'd love to answer them.
