Biolab part 2: concepts (Patreon)

Here are a couple of concepts I have been working on for the next part of biolab.

First, there is major Desi, head of security. We've seen her before in Biolab p01 in the security office. She was a tank commander before she landed this cushy desk job. Now her time is spent yelling at her troops, those incompetent undisciplined idiots. In the WIP, the hazmat team is ensuring her that they will handle it, no problem. Surely.

Then there are the security bots (3). These are little autonomous robots that patrol around the base, they are everywhere, but try to stay out of the way of any people. They are small enough that they can fit through vents and have a network of tunnels throughout the base specially made for them.

These little guys with their non-lethal weapons are pretty effective at stopping any critters from escaping or entering the base. In case of a containment breach, these bots are often the first at the scene. They are great pest control. They are not shielded though, and can be tampered with/'hacked'. But I'm sure it's fine.

The DWM has experimented with different human-robot security ratios and found that ~1 human to 10 bots is ideal. The bots do the work, the humans put a human face on security, literally. It's good for morale, and people still don't really trust robots with guns.

These works are uploaded to the archive in Biolab part 2/Concepts. The first was ~99% done for a while now. I decided to post these, because I didn't have time to finish Lily's drawing.

Drawings can be found in the archive here, or you can go to this month's archive post if that doesn't work.
