I'm looking for suggestions for a head and some body details for my latest drawing. I was thinking of going with a Spanish Conquistador helm, kind of like the Swiss guard, but I don't know what to do for the face. Throw some ideas my way!

Anyways, here's the work in progress:

I would suggest an impassive, sculpted human face.

The Predator aka pussyface.
The simplest solution takes the shortest time to write down.

"My homies!" - Shatner

"The women!!" - Spock

"He's no better than Shatner!" - Phil Hartman as Bill Clinton re: Leonard Nimoy

Suggesting the Liefeld look?

I like this idea, it reminds me of the movie Gladiator.

Quiet you! Although...I think something like that might work, for shock value if not anything else!

I just think a Predaconquistador would look badass, and, having recently read up on Cortez's exploits, would be hilariously appropriate.

Yeah, that's pretty much exactly what I had in mind.

If you're committed to a conquistador for this project, I think a future design should incorporate robotic jodhpurs, a pith helmet, monocle, and bristly moustache.

The Fashions of Imperialism as modeled by bipedal combat robots might be a fun series. Or not.

I've taken Ford's idea to hear and tried to draw a face. I also did some detail work and this is how it's turned out so far:

That's pretty sweet muffinmang, the only problem I see is his elbows appear to bend backwards?

Also codpiece too small.

Yeah, the elllbows are a problem. And the arms are too long or the legs are too short. The arms end right were the knees start when there should be space for another hand between where the hand ends and the knee starts. Otherwise pretty cool.
