It's called a C-14 Gauss "Impaler".

lol, thanks, that was exactly what I was talking about.

Yeah, it's very "stylized" and doesn't keep to normal proportions. It's still cool though.

Actually the suits are made to recycle human waste and use it as fuel to power the suit.

but thats not enough...

Well its not just the only source of power. It just makes sure bodily wastes can be converted to reusable energy.

I never understood how Marines pee through a foot of neosteel.

Probably they pee into something that absobs it, and recycles it as pure water. Pee isn't the worse problem, however . Maybe they have integrated toilet-bidets?

I think the character on the far left - Tyrael? I wouldn't know since I've never played Diablo I or II - is the best looking. And I have to admit that Zeratul, on the other hand, doesn't look that great... Sure the armor is great but Zeratul doesn't look as good. That's just my opinion though.

Tyrael, Arthas and Zeratul.

Yeah, Zeratul just looks roughed in, his skin and leg just gestural swaths of paint on the digital canvas.

My favorite of these three is Arthas in the middle. His pose is the most dynamic, and the composition seems designed to steer attention towards him.

The skewed proportions give a kind of "fisheye" feel on the marine - The hydralisk looks more normal in this reguard IMO. Still, I also think it look great.

Zeratul looks skinny in that last pic.

I know who Arthas is - mostly because of World of Warcraft - just not any of the characters from Diablo. And yeah, Arthas has a pretty cool pose. He was the first character I looked at, mainly because of his pose. Even so, I still feel that Tyrael is the best looking because he is the most visual appealing character to me from that piece of artwork. Also, it feels to me like the artist didn't put enough effort or time into drawing Zeratul. As if he/she spent less time on him.

On another note, I need to get my computer and my tablet soon... I have this urge to finish a piece of artwork and show it to everyone on SC:L. But that won't happen for a month or two.
