xD

Funny how I wouldn't play Mass Effect for the first time for another two years after I drew this...I still haven't played Mass Effect 2, I am still on the original game, but I see what you mean by the multiple eyes being Collector-like.

Thanks, yeah that's one of my old-school mecha designs from early 2010...I really wanna get back into drawing mecha, since it seems everyone loved my mecha designs, but it's just so hard to get myself to draw stuff consistently!

Thanks, my inspirations were Crysis and MGS4

Such a cool looking robot. I wish I was as good at mecha as you are!
It's got a very nice and simple colouring that fits it perfectly. ^_^

Yes mecha seems to be one of my strong points, and I really enjoy drawing different types of vehicles and weapons...I don't do robots as often, but when I do, they usually look like what I've got here. Meaning they're human-sized and AI-controlled.

Yeah. I'm really jealous of people who are good at mecha, I'm just not very good with inanimate objects.
I really like these types of robots. I think they have one of the best looks.

I'm the opposite, I'm better at, or at least more comfortable at drawing mecha than I am with drawing characters.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, that seems to be the case for many, inanimate objects just have a cleaner and clearer structure than characters and such. I guess.

Nope I inked it with a Sharpie and colored it in Photoshop.

IKR? Well I wanted to go with a different angle saying that we dont just except monsters.

That's cool, I may submit some mecha then. Are there any requirements for doing so? I take it the mecha has to be humanoid, or at least be on two legs, right?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Here are the Mecha requirments:
it must be a mech.
It can be beastoid humanoid wut ever.
It doesnt even need legs it can float.

Love this - combines many of my favorite things: excess eyes, helmet antennae, thick collarbone armor, cyborg muscle, skinny aliens, and kneepads with holes in them. It looks like it should be scaling walls instead of standing still

Lol I guess so, thanks for the comment! I have other mechanical designs (weapons, etc.) in my gallery so come check 'em out!

Thanks. This is an old drawing, I can probably do much better now, but yeah, the angle I used is the same as for most of my other old drawings. I'm learning to draw from other angles.

great design, I like that it's not overly bulky. The multiple lights on its head look really cool

Thanks. My main influences were The Matrix, Crysis and Metal Gear Solid.
