XCOM Legacy (fanwork) - Character Designs for ADVENT Champions

This was a fun design project for TheBritWriter's fan comic "XCOM: Legacy". He wanted some custom armour designs (inspired by the armour that the ADVENT Troopers wear in XCOM 2) for the human contingency of ADVENT's 'peacekeepers'.

There are quite a few Easter eggs incorporated into the design not only from the shape language of the bulky armour. TheBritWriter wanted to add throwbacks within the Champions' weapon arsenal:
- the Stun rod from X-COM: UFO Defense in the Steward's gear
- the ARC thrower from XCOM: Enemy Unknown in the Officer's gear
- the ARC rifle from the XCOM 2 Long War Mod in the Supervisor's gear
