                Great start man, I really dig the organic armor feeling.
                If you are looking to improve this one, you may want to rework the pose to give him another attitude. I have the feeling he is leaning forward, and he may seems a tiny bit hunchbacked.

                Also, it could be great to try to work on his silhouette. When I'm sculpting a concept, I like sometime to use a 100% black matcap to only see the silhouette and play with it with the move brush. For now, he has strong shoulders with small hips and thin legs. Maybe by balancing it you may be able to improve it. Or maybe it would be fun to go all the other way and exagerate it. For now I have the feeling it's in the middle of "too much" and "not enough"

                It's just some personal reflexion but I hope it'll help you

                    It looks great! Perhaps you should incorporate more of the salarian head shape in your design to match your back story. Like the geths head shape is a reminder of their quarian origins.

                      I like the design a lot, it actually makes me think of the Lystheni Salarians. According to the books, they're a group of salarians exiled from Council space.

                      Though I think your guy there has a few too many fingers...

                        Thaks for the feedback guyz
                        I had too much problems with the alien one, I can't define the main ideas & shapes in my mind so I decided to let my hand fly around the polysphere

                          I preferred previous design, it had more individuality IMO, anyways keep on rocking ! this one seems to have really interesting suit

                            i know it's not what you wanna hear, but i loved the original alien race desing original but still mass effec-ish silhouette, well balanced desing.

                            i'm not in love with this new one, however mech parts are SICK, but silhouette, stomach part and hair/head wire stuff does not stand so strongly for me.

                            only my two ccents though but if you sketch up an another great mech armor design again so easily than i'll have to kill you just kidding, you make it look soo easy, you're awsome!

                                Awesome. Like the first concept a lot. but the second one looks promising also.
