But... then people might find out I didn't post the first version first because I thought it didn't look as good as the second and then posted it later anyway because I'd been playing too many video games instead of doing new illustrations :O
Also then I'd have to name things :'D

Thank you :D It's yellow but the blue shading pushes it that way.

:D It was actually based on Freddie Mercury's look, but I didn't want the body to be white, so I made it black. the pink highlight was just a random pick :D

Yeah, I like the odd anatomically normie build, but the absurd proportions often yield things that are more enjoyable to draw :D

:D 30% thigh, 30% knee, 40% shin. All the essential parts really, definitely appropriately proportioned.

Thank you! :D That one was really fun to come up with as it has a very absurd bit of world-building to it; it was such a stupid idea that flowed really naturally (my favourite kind of idea).

Also, most colourschemes I did for a single design was eight; for that crab tank that turned out to have a mad coke habit.

I just enjoy doing multiple colourschemes to see the same design in a variety of different ways.
I'd quite like to do alternate loadouts too, but I just don't have the time to get into that at the moment.

Mech from June last year, recoloured.
I can probably just stop saying "recoloured" whenever I post something for a second time (or more) because, whenever I do, it's always got a new livery.

No; this is actually a blank spot in my knowledge, I've seen images of them every now and then, but didn't know it was a game.

:D Yeah, this one would be resolved with excessively futuristic mechanics, but I really want to solve it with some more grounded and sturdy connections. I'll come back to it again at some point

Thanks, they've become the standard for my mechs (I'm now incapable of drawing normal feet).

so... Pink watermelon themed mech?
I figured this one would be armed with retractable whips inside its arms, but I didn't draw them in.

I should add that, though it may seem like a pun in the context of the conch-fists, they're genuinely called shell jackets, it's just a happy accident. :D

It's a sci-fi spin on the look of 18th century military shell-jackets, it would be made from a mix of flexible light armour.
No reason, I just did it to play around with some different aesthetic elements. Every illustration I do is a mix 'designed with intent' and 'made up on the fly.'
