"Tryons"

These are my designs for the famous Tryon race, for these small silhouettes I wanted to get across a feeling of cybernetics and organics moulded into one species.

The Tryons are the creators of Kepler, they were the ones who fought against the monster, and with their technology they managed to contain it on their home planet while the artificial outer shell of the prison was constructed.

Unfortunately the ones who fought bravely weren't allowed access to freedom and were left inside the prison with the creature. However they managed to form a civilisation and survive while trapped inside Kepler.

The Tryons before they built their prison for the monster were actually similar in appearance to the Pronaxians, however as their resources were running low and they were desperate for a new source of energy they invested all their resources and efforts into developing super bio engineered life forms which produce energy, artificial plants if you will.

This lead to a successful new self sustaining "tree life form", producing vast amounts of energy for their civilisation, soon enough they had solved their energy crisis and were a thriving race. They decided to push their new found science to try and discover immortality and invented these bio suits made of the same energy producing tree life forms, and ultimately fusing their consciousness into them.

Below you see their immortality suit of self sustaining energy, with their immortality and endless energy they became the most powerful race in the galaxy, able to build on an imaginable scale and fast pace.
