What do you do after you build the armor for Marcus Fenix and Delta Squad, drive more than 500 miles to surprise the creators of Gears of War with it in person, hand-deliver a chainsaw bayonet to CliffyB, get a five-page feature in the July 2007 issue of OXM, and return home a hero? If you’re the team at Nightmare Armor Studios, you get to work on gear for the squad’s newest recruit. And she’s female!

Don’t overreact, though. “We wanted a look that was still very military-inspired and not so much ‘Oh, look at me, I’m a girl,’” says Sid Garrand, founder and leader of NAS. “I mean, it had to have that badass look to it. We made new sculpts and molds for some parts, and others we just molded to fit a woman’s smaller frame.”

 

COMMENTS:

I would KILL to have a suit like that!! Absolutely amazing!

Fire Doesn't Cleanse... It Blackens.

Will there be playable/non-playable female character(s) in Gears2?

Will she be built like "Cole Train"?!
