Hi!

Please take a look at my XV25 Stealth Suits. I was trying to capture moment when they change in stealth mode. Please tell me what you think about it.

The paintjob is lovely, and I particularly like the glowing as the suits transition, but the sand may be overdoing it, I fear. It makes it seem less like stealth technology and more like they've just waded through some particularly deep mud.

Best way to get the stealth look is to get 3rd party recast of stealth suit that are clear, then tape up parts you want to stay clear and paint the rest.

The way you're painting them, it looks like unusual piled up sand and rocks; you need some pillars/arches from a ruin and have the suits going stealth next to it. Going stealth in the open, its best in clear(ex:predator).

Personally, I like the look. I think these are solidly executed stealth suits. Good job mate

They look awesome! The blue "electric ripple" running over them really does complete the look. Big Mac's idea does sound cool though, they'd look amazing with actual transparent areas.

With the materials (IE: opaque plastic) that you have, I think you did a great job capturing the transition and making them blend into the base.
