Iā€™m okay with further stumbles if we get more cake.

Are you thinking of the Meltrandi power armor? Cause I can see it. Also, Ikuto Yamashita is great.

I might. At least one of them. I just have a bit of a backlog of WIPs lol

Not what I had in my mind when drawing them, but I love me some Studio Nue, so it's bound to creep in everywhere.

I'd say recognizing what you're unhappy with and wanting to do better makes you a good painter, not a bad one.

It's what keeps me grounded and I hope it does the same for you.

I know what you mean. I'm alternating between flailingly hoping to make some, any, positive impact on people's day and the feeling of utter sinking dread.

I prefer form over function myself. Make 'em pretty and you've won me over.

Leo, that explains the banding on the back. I like it, it's a nice touch.

Is it the Zaku/GM shapes in the visors?

Dig the retro fantasy cover vibes. Who did the new suit design?

Makes sense, progression wise.

Looks a lot nicer than my chaotic project board. I like the ball with limbs.

It's like touching velvet, lying on an air cushion. I love it.

Well it does look goshdarned neat, pardon my language.

Can we make it a reality show?
comment in response to post
Oh for sure. That was a large part of the design direction I was given.

They'd definitely look good painted on some shields.

I like it. Chess and playing card theme?

For sure. Quick pattern recogition is part of our wiring for survival. Predictive interpretation of our surroundings to make up for sensory information reaching our brain rather slowly. The spillover effect of that probably has some part of how we ended up creative and imaginative.

That's a neat layout! It's interesting how you can play with the mind's cognitive need to read humanoid shapes "right". It sorta snaps to the template as long as you give it an excuse.

The idea with the overhang of the torso was to give the illusion of more realistic proportions, while having a pretty odd leg-to-torso ratio.

I really liked Freesia, so I need to check this out.

Taking some inspiration from Patlabor. Always liked the look of them.

Non-chibi version, for anyone curious.

My suspicions were well-founded.

I'm so sorry to hear that. I know what it feels like.

Thank you for reminding me I need to watch that show.
comment in response to post
Glad you dig.
comment in response to post
I was mostly being facetious, but thank you šŸ’œ Also my shape language consists mostly of "ooh, pretty curves" lol
comment in response to post
Thank you! Hopefully they'll turn out fancier after some collaborative iteration, thus making me look more talented in the process lol.

Helicopter gunship vibes. I dig it.
