Yes you see right! I just textured the XV-104 Riptide Battlesuit today and added some extra gunz on top. Also the feet were enlarged to a more fitting size. Yet i am looking into more upgrades for the XV-104 in order to evaluate possible enrichment to the model compared to the input work needed to bring the stuff to life. Suggestions are as always appreciated and feel free to do so since now everything can be redone easily whereof it's not as easy lateron when the development of the Unit progresses to animation stages.
Besides of that don't forget to have a nice day!

One suggestion i have is to add the shield on its arm!
Its legs and feet seem a little small compared to the rest of its body
Consider the perspective of the snapshot - if you were looking at it face-on the proportions would seem different.
Add missiles potentially where the top guns are as an upgrade?
Oh my... it's beautiful...
I think the smaller heads on the arms should look more like drones though.
The left side of the torso section, the area between the head and arms, should be a little larger than the right. The Nova reactor is housed in the left side.
I say dont add nothing more, it is perfect like this
Again, great new version!
The shoulder mounted guns looks silly
From this angle the legs still look too small
Pull the tops of the arms back a ways so the thing doesn't look like a statue asking for a hug.
The pose is derived from the way i've modelled it yet. The pose itself however will be different as soon as i establish a proper bone rig for animation.
"I shall hug you! The Greater Good demands it!"
Perhaps that could be a possible line for the Riptide? =D
like how it is textured,with scratches on metal.
It looks like a knight-like-unit concept. I hope we can expect more knight-like-units for the other races. For orks you have the stompas, the tau will get the riptides/rvarnas, space marines/ig maybe knights, for eldar wraithknights, for dark eldars a Grotesquen construction, chaos/daemons should get decimator daemon engine,daemonhunter the dreadknight,the nids already have fexes, necrons could get some Triarch Stalkers and the sisters could get a penitent angel machine with wings. :D
I think the legs look pretty small for a frikking Riptide battle suit.
I think I just soiled my pants.
