The last one was cool, let's try to make these a regular thing. OC mechs, requests, scribbles, fan art, doesn't matter. Just post it if you got it.
Here's some fresh OC off the presses just for you, /m/
I love these threads. I'm glad you are trying to make them regular again.

Looking good so far, can't wait to see it when it's done!

>>13435980
Awesome work, I love the kinda sketchy look.
oh hey you used my notArmoredCore for the OP
here's a quick sketch before bed
>>13442879
Yo, man. I absolutely love your value sketches. I have a problem with focusing too much on linework and wasting time on that, when what I really want to do is something more like this. 'm so used to pencil sketching That I carry those habits over into digital work. Any tips on how to get better at value sketching instead of line sketching?
Is /m/ anime related requests ok? Or is it strictly mecha drawings?
>>13443075
Requests are good, dont expect them to get fulfilled, though. Ever.
>>13443075
Whatever you want really.
People used to request shit, but nobody ever delivered so just became an OC artdump.
>>13443075
Only if lewds.

>>13443527
ok finished!
what do you guys think of my progress?
>>13443556
A few of those nubs need a bit more sanding.
>>13443619
bro all of my nubs need sanding, and I need to use thin glue instead of shitty gel glue, and I need to add the decals, and I should also probably add some panel detail with a detail marker or some light paint.
Oh yeah and I should probably glue most of the pieces that need to be glued instead of just hoping the snaps will stay.
this was my first ever gunpla build (and my only so far) and I am a retarded college student with no equipment to clean it up, like I used fuckin scissors to get it out of the plastic molds
>>13443690
>thin glue instead of shitty gel glue
wut.
Dude, no need to glue unless you horribly fuck up. Even then, you buy some liquid cement to melt the fucking plastic. Aside from that one time I lost a lock and that other time I somehow fucked up a beam rifle, the only shit I've ever used cement on are the V-fins so they stay in the head. Little fuckers like to pop off at the first opportunity.
>>13443556

Here's a WIP of the date sim thing from few weeks ago.
I was still working on it, but the project seems to be dead already so I'll post it here.
>>13443906
>all those female chars
>>13443779
how do schoolgirls pose again?
>>13443718
I had to glue parts because everything on this kit wanted to keep popping off or snapping.
also is there a way to fix joints that keep popping out?
>>13443924

Calling him "dev" is a stretch.

>>13443965
I am bad at things and life
>>13444070
GUNPLA GENERAL IS THAT WAY, ANON.
>>13444088
BUT I DREW THAT ON PAPER, CANT YOU SEE THE LINES?!
>>13444038
Noted.
>>13444038
You might want to plot a more coherent light source for that, it just looks like its all over the place right now. Otherwise I really like your color choice for it!
>>13444402
There's particles scattered about the composition which are causing the chickenpox-esque lighting. Though I'll definitely dial down the intensity, now that you mention it.
Not saying it's a particularly well executed attempt, but, hey, sometimes you gotta take chances, make mistakes, and get messy.
>>13444038
The shading is too soft everywhere. Design looks neat though.
>>13443891
>>13443878
like these both alot. i couldnt say anything since im not a artist but these drawings are a fucking.
>>13444355
Is that a gun on his head?
>>13442904
Here's a bulkier design based on the last sketch
Thanks anon, I'm glad you like my designs. Very rarely I do line sketches when it comes to mechs, they're more useful when I need to visualise fine details before I start painting (eg. character design). It's not about the technique, you can produce same designs with lines instead of value if you understand the principles well. In concept design, the most common element is shape language. Using values just makes it easier to visualise shapes because it's blocked in and you can see the form by changes in shadows and light. I start with a rough silhouette, sometimes with the help of a sketch, to define the space the mech is going to fit in. Then I start sculpting the form using darks for shadow. I'd use highlights sparingly, if at all.
>>13443690
>>13443924
>>13444070
>my first ever gunpla build
Why'd you go for the MG?
In any case, not only could you learn legitimate drawing development via /ic/'s sticky and hard work, but you also could easily pick up the minimum lining, sanding, and cutting tools from Amazon for very little. This is besides how you're probably fucking up if parts want to come off.
Don't buy Gundam markers.
What suggestions do you guys have for breaking out of repetition? By that I mean I've been trying to develop but my "practice" has resulted in me not going anywhere because I haven't been looking into developing further properly. What should I do to break this bad habit?
>>13447002
learn 3d. zbrush
>>13446970
gave the guy some dakka to play with
>>13445937
Or is it a head on his gun?
I wish I could draw I have an idea for how the MC's mecha looks in one of the stories i'm writing but I'm afraid to really go into detail about it without it winding up as a clusterfuck.
>>13449202
Robot's a robot.
Boxes and cylinders, little bits sticking out.
>>13449202
TELL ME. IM BORED AS ALL HELL.
Gonna color this soon.
>>13449178
with you all options are possible.
Silverhawks, yo!
>>13449481
minor tweak to the hands and boots.
>>13449265
Well, that's all I feel like doing for now.
Well this thread made me pick up my pen for the first time in a long while. I forgot how much fun this shit is.
Anyways, trying to draw up a design. Just figuring the silhouette.
>>13449235
>>13449202
Well it's a mecha based on a race of ancient humanoid beings, standing 20 or so feet tall, the mechs are based off the muscle and bone structure of them, The MC's one is actually based off a woman, wide hips breasts ext, but the breasts and such are covered by armor, and the thing even has a woman's face with white hair and blue facial markings, but it's usually covered with a fairly featureless mask with a few lights where they eyes would be, these beasts had horns that came out of the side of their heads and hers arched up much like the woman in this picture, and an organic armblade which is recreated in these mechas. When fully armed it has a skirt made of blades that detach and act as kind of piercing funnels, a Spear large strange looking assault rifle type weapon. The color scheme is Blue on white and most people in the story call it Blue rose, the bits that aren't armored are covered in a black latex like flexiarmor because dumb sci fi bullshit set in a fantasy universe. The cockpit enterance is located on the upper back much like a Code Geass Knightmare frame. The story is somewhat lewd which is Why I imagined the design like this, dunno if there will be lewd applications for the Blue Rose, but I just thought the idea of a mecha that looks like a woman sounds kinda cool.
>>13449891
Shiny. I like it, reminds me of Gavan.
>>13450022
Interesting idea. What's the story?
>>13449926
Well done.
>>13452842
Well the story I'm still working on All I know really is that I want it set in a fantasy universe with advanced technology ala Panzer Dragoon, And Focuses at first on a young manWho's a fairly bottom heavy trapAnd a seemingly cruel empress. Romance, adventure lewds and robotsAnd futas possibly
>>13453425trapsfutas
you got my attention anon
>>13453425
>bottom heavy trap
???
>>13453552
A girly boy with a big ass and wide hips.
The experience gained from the last try at a long form comics project is funneled into making the new one more workable.
>>13453539
I'll try my best I already have the name of the story in my head.
>>13453425
Need. It.
>>13454011
I still gotta figure out a few things, I don't want it to be a super long thing It'd be my first time writing something like this.
>>13454109
True, make it a short little pilot
>>13454130
Pilot? I'd want it to at least be larger than a single chapter. Maybe I can post some backstory and stuff.
>>13454422
Good idea
>>13454422
Start another writethread. The last one was good, and gave some good drawthread inspiration as well.

thanks man, i accept requests too.
also current WIP
>>13456453
What a cute Sobrero
Is there any chance someone on /m/ could have a go at drawing a robot for me?
The idea is a local biker/delinquent has seen his local area's shota piloted elementary school mech and wants to mend his ways by becoming a robot pilot.
So he builds a mech out of car and bike parts, with a pompadour, shades and so on. It's black with flame decals and a muscle car aesthetic (headlamps on the shoulders, chrome exhausts and intakes on the backpack etc) and wields a robot sized tire iron.
>>13456580
didn't you draw that already?
last thread?
>>13456526
Ayy bro, seeing some Bionicle parts in there.
>>13456610
go back to BZP black six
and yes these are bionicle parts.
Mirrored shit, but I like it.
>>13456604
I didn't see it before the thread died, I apologise if it was done.
>>13456658
It wasn't done, but didn't you post a mock up and wanted refinement?
>>13456671
I don't believe I did, I have no drawing skill at all.
I'd like to request a kind enough /m/an to draw the Strike Zeta (pic related) kinda like the HG GFT RX-78-2 box art, where it's floating with its back to the Earth.
>>13458072
This box art, for reference and clarity.
>>13454449
>>13449926
It has an obarish feel to it.
'ello there mate. What's all this then?

Please more Gundam, also enjoy seeing your lines.

>>13423917
Reminds me of G-reco.. and Eva. Very nice regardless!
>>13426169
Same with this as well.
>>13435980
Please more! preferably not on notebook paper if you can.
>>13439040
Only thing I can add is maybe some more in the torso and shoulders on the right one? to offset those powerful ZoE legs.
>>13442879

>>13443878
>>13443891
A lot of people have complimented the Rider, but personally I like your TF stuff more. My only critique would be that the mouths are a bit too low and close to the jawline, and try making the face look more strained around the eyes and jaw when they're making severe expressions like that. otherwise pretty good, you've got a solid grasp on their whole helmet head style. You might need to add some more chunk to their bodies, or at least widen the upper torso like other super robots or heroic mecha do.
>>13449178
>>13453645
I love these! Not enough round, softer TF/Yuusha/etc designs going around.
>>13463156
Is that Battragon from the Marvel comic?
>>13463798
thanks man, i really wanna try my best at mech drawing but i can't seem to get their proportions right and their gestures more "alive".
>>13460331
That's the idea. I'm a huge fan of his as well as Masahito Yamashita, so I usually go for similar styles.
Quick drawing with Flash. I wanted to focus on the color scheme more than anything, seeing as Flash is not as robust as PS when it comes to color adjustment.
>>13469072
Liking the obarish stuff.
>>13469072
Lines are too thick and unclean.
Shading is incoherent and haphazard.
Arms are far too short to a satirical level.
Contours are inconsistent
Design alone isn't particularly well done.
Needs a lot of improvement.
>>13469923
... so its an Obari mecha
>>13472453
Comparitively, Obari is like the crazy way of preparing ramen and turning it into a refined dish.
This is just Sweet Sundae Ramen
>>13463017
Cool shit on the top right. Is that Astro Man crying on the bottom there?
Galaxy Man guy from the last thread here, anybody have any Mega Man related requests? Also, bumping.

>>13478786
What was his story again? Is he a robot with an organic exo skeleton?
Or is he a Kaiju, not a robot?
>>13485565
He's not Godzilla who happened to learn karate from a little girl who keeps him as a pet/protege.
For some reason, physical discipline for giant monsters leads to "turn your limbs into swords."
>>13487490
He's also deathly afraid of water. But that's a story for another time.
>>13487591
>>13487591

But he's a whale monster! I guess that just makes it funnier (As does the giant robot mentor keeping him in check with a spray bottle.)

>>13488571
some more OC not really mecha but character design for a manga I'm doing that involves mechs. Lemme know if any want to see more
Pls no bully
>>13489399
pros
+ nice silhouette
+ good details
+ some thought given to practicality
cons
- calves and forearms to short and small, clashing with the bulk of the chest and thighs
- head is extremely derivative. I see some Ingram in there, as well as some of the later Macross VFs. It looks like another mech's head on not its own body.
Overall 7/10 good start.
Oh, and invest in a scanner.
>>13489438
Thanks a lot for the critique!
I'll try and make the forearms and calves bulkier, make the former bigger too, maybe reduce the shoulders. Meanwhile, here's something else I'm working on.

You may not have the luxury of an early start, but start now, and you;ll get there. Bob Ross, as much as this sounds cheesy, is extremely skilled with simple painting techniques, and even some DeviantArt tutorials can be useful. The good ones only, there are a lot of shit ones.

ye sure I guess.
Idk I had an artist friend for a few months who lived in Argentina, and about a year ago he disappeared without a trace. I'm just hoping that some day he shows up in this thread so I can tell him how things have been going. He's at least inspired me to start improving my own art.
And I think this is the most mecha drawing i've done in recent time not counting a Birdy the Mighty thing I did. Rip.
Drew this 2 years ago for a long abandoned project
>>13508341

Eve if it's a Not_Gundam, it's really good line art.
I've vowed to do one painting a night as part of my routine.
I should shoot up to Johannes Vermeer levels in no time.
>>13519329
That's pretty good! If you would like some (hopefully constructive) criticism:
-The left arm is way too tiny. Its actual pose isn't too bad, but it should really be coming out at the viewer (bigger!). Right now it looks like it is just barely longer than the waist, and extremely thin as well.
-I would almost say the head is too large, but fixing the arm may help with that.
-What's up with the crotch? It's like the legs are attached to his front, meaning standing straight would put him in an L-shape, or a 90 degree angle.
-The head crest could use some work - the main issue is the line underneath the "fins". It just makes it look more flat than it should, sort of like the fins are paper tucked behind something.
Definitely keep drawing mechs though, there's definitely some good stuff here.
>>13521515
If you have the time I would spend weekends or something going back and fixing flaws you see and generally improving upon the stuff you had done for the week.
>>13521780

I recently did the transition from traditional to digital and I have to say I don't have the slightest idea what the fuck am I doing. Anyone with more experience willing to share some general tips on digital coloring? Or digital anything really.
And how does my random character design look?
>>13530772
>>13530638
I gave it a shot.
Like the Titans Return Powermaster Optimus Prime a lot exept for the hollowness. Since the rifles are reused from the toy its retooled from it means it can probably assemble into a super rifle.

Huh, finally have something to post, though I think I've posted this here before.
Erz.Pz.A.-88.A "Franz." A "Substitute Armored Automaton" I made up for this book I'm writing. It's a first-generation prototype construction robot that was pressed into emergency military service by a certain desperate country. Slow, clumsy and unrefined, everything about it screams "last-ditch." It has salvaged AFV armor around the cockpit and left arm, an IFV's 30mm autocannon on the right and rudimentary HUD software to help the pilot aim the damn thing.

Well, you can't go wrong with Faiz.
Sometimes called Kamen Rider 555.
it's been a while /m/
>>13544013
It has indeed.
i did a better one
>>13544987
Much better proportions.
Does 3D art count as well?
>>13545241

>>13545282

thread was so amazing.
>>13547435

>>13547476
Me too

I hope one of these days the guy who modeled these can make a mech game.
>>13548710
Perhaps I ought to, I've just finished the last game project I was working on, and the mechs are already rigged.
Could someone draw Tsubasa as a Hi-Nu MS Girl?
>>13550784
Your waifu is shit.
>>13550784
Not him but if anyone does this it better be the original.
>>13550800
Not my waifu actually, I have yet to find mine.
I actually want this for a friend.
>>13550872

requesting black ox from tetsujin 28 beating up on some random mecha,maybe teaming up with star punch. i dont know. i just really like black ox so :/
>>13550208
I'd play it. There is a shortage of mech games.
>>13551086
Your mechfu is shit
>>13531992
Wow. Actually something different from Gundams and other "magitechnology" super robots.
I do definitely like that clumsy thing a lot! Great work!
>>13552032
Crap. Forgot the pic. That`s my old attempt to design a more or less realistic combat mecha (inspired by AMP-suit, WOTOMs, HG, etc.).

I'd say lengthen the upper legs a bit to even out the proportions, but i like it so far.
>>13552190
Legs are definitely too short and stubby, but other than that I'm digging it.
