Description
Without venom of vipers nor great strength of pythons, Tsieh is a master of finding places to hide to get out of trouble, specially holes too big for pursuers. One hole he went down was a chimney of an abandoned workshop, in the darkness he got himself tangled in the mechanism of an incomplete automata.With this newfound body, he went from running away from trouble to speeding towards it, protecting all that is small and squishy.
His movements were bumbling at first, mostly crashing into villains head-on. With time he learned how to control it like a puppet, wriggling his body against gears, pulling on wires. The older he got, the longer he grew, the more secrets of machine he could uncover.
The design is born of frustration and a mech feet design I've had filed away since 2008. After many failed sketches I just meh'd through and this version happened to be satisfactory.
I enjoy goofy character designs and this has much goofy potential just on shapeshifting potential alone.
It's also a nod to Earthworm Jim.

Would you be making a comic or game out of this character? Tsieh is really cool in that automata. #BossSnakeEtMachina Β

Well this is certainly a good way to introduce a snake into a fighting game and still keep it a snake.
Also a heroic one at that, a welcome rarity amongst snake themed characters.

It's already been done in Rivals of Aether, actually

Yeah I found that oute way after I have seen this, though Rival's of Aether is still pretty obscure and I am not sure who did this first between this and that.

Rivals added her a couple months ago, with a reveal a couple months before that, when did you make this character?
π: 0 β©: 1
I....didn't make this character, It was made by Igliang, who posted this piece.

Very nice design & idea! His attacks are cool!

That is a great combo; rhinoceros ratsnake + terracotta transformer. If it would become a real game, I can only start to imagine what an artistic exercise it would be to animate this.

Β Awesome. The goofier theme is definitely creating contrast between the older characters, allowing the roaster to be more varied. I really like the vibrant green used on the snake compared to the boring desaturated colors of the mech, which is fitting.

This is amazing. I love the design, the overall silliness of the snake in the mech-type suit, and the multiple different forms he can change into.
Great job overall ^.^
