Something mecha - Shiver

While on Thirteen and Caliban I tried to follow the classic G1 style, on this I tried to go towards the incoming movie visual style. I like both kind of designs

_{...the Borg Queen with chicken legs. Eew.}

Usual bit of backstory:

<sub>Nomen omen because she's one of the bad guys. Her weapons are deception and fast talking, her skills are between these of a medic and a mad scientist.

She's the one responsible of Caliban 'reformat' from a light and harmless vehicle to a quite powerful gun. Being physically weak herself, Shiver felt the need to have some big mecha around as a bodyguard and when she encountered Caliban she exploited his obsession over strenght to her good -- and made sure he wouldn't betray or harm her with a careful tweaking on his base programming and other tricks.

Her alternate form was originally a hoverbike. On Earth, she transforms in a red motorbike with a hologram projection of the pilot, a leather clad figure [...because a driverless motorbike would quite hamper the whole "disguise" thing, I guess].</sub>

I use 'she' pronoun because the voice I figure in my mind is a female one - much similar to the Borg Queen, which I had in mind when I began to sketch her. The interaction between Shiver and Caliban was partly inspired from the ST:First Contact scenes with the Borg Queen and Data and partly from the 'not so willing servant' nuance implied in Caliban's name.

_{...not very original, I fear... ^^;}
