Commission - Colonial Hoplites

Colonial Type-15 'Hoplite' Lead-In Guardian Trainers on exercise in preparation for an operation to reconnoiter the Cyrannus star system; rescue trapped Colonial civilians; and recover cultural, technological, and botanical artifacts with help from an unexpected ally - the Seed Ship 'Sidonia'

Commissioned by skaianDestiny, and borne from the 'what-if' fanfiction I wrote a few years ago about the Rag-Tag Fleet encountering the survivors of Earth's destruction at the hands of the Gauna. A crossover between Battlestar Galactica and Knights of Sidonia.

I used a cel-shaded material to try and emulate Polygon Pictures' aesthetic for the anime.
