That big thread of yours was my introduction to this site. I love all of your designs but especially the amphibious/aquatic ones, including that amphibious shuttle on Page 1.
I love how it doesn't look like armour, the scales almost look like it but that's for the articulation, the pearlescent texture makes it feel a little more friendly. And I like the little yellow trim on either side of the flipper, I didn't want to pat myself on the back but it made me think of the trim on the aquatic uniforms I designed (it also reminds me of the belugas in Lower Decks).
I think something that really helps the design is that there's nothing over the head, so it doesn't feel like he's trapped in there.

Yeah it's just a mobility suit for now. Antigravity. I'd like to do a full EVA suit later if I have time.
The trim just seemed the proper way.
I wonder what the idea behind the big spherical tanks on two of those might be. I mean, oxygen, obviously? But why spherical?
