Original Description:
I’ve been pretty devoid of drawing ideas lately, so I figured I’d try to interpret what a scyther from RimWorld looks like from their sprites
RimWorld sprites normally don’t show arms or legs, but scythers definitely look like they have arms that are 100% blade, yet if you check their health tab when they get damaged they apparently have hands and five fingers?? So I gave them vaguely praying mantis arms with a hand just stuck behind a folding blade, hah. Mechanoids do have that whole insect theme going on after all
What is it with me and loving the designs of enemies that are the absolute worst to deal with gameplay-wise? Those raids that are just a pack of like 50 scythers is the worst RimWorld experience I can think of, but I just can’t resist robots, I guess
