/mg/ - Mechanization General Anonymous Sat Jul 15 00:05:33 2023 No.6743452 [Reply] [Original]

General dedicated to posting and discussing art of either:
1. Manmade objects, vehicles, tool, weapons etc. (of any kind and any historical era, as long as they fall in the ballpark of "technology") and fictional derivatives of such
2. Objects,vehicles, creatures etc. that aesthetically fall into the visual space of mecha/robot/artificial/cybernetics etc. regardless of level of realism.
Helpful to mention the level of realism, if any, you are taking into account in the art.
Old general resoruces (hopefully these ones aren't empty):

Like those fingers. Looks enough like ZX shape structure, tho maybe make the details a bit bigger compared to the glove.

Sounds good. Like these dudes and your studies too, think you're going the right way as fair as a i know. The ski like supports on the bottom right blimp fir example look relaly nice, and there's some nice cross-countours overall. Also those mech designs are nice in an oldschool take, mixing really simple strucutres with nice subtle hull shape variance, reminds me a bit of Ashley Wood, but with a bit more old cartoon/anime mech look.

Ah I see. Yeah that's entirely reasonable, art without a lot of details is usually easier to study than pics; still, cool studies. The planes and cars on the bottom in particular. If you wish to post a certain subject matter as thread study material it'd be entirely welcome and I'd enjoy participating.

>>6786570
thanks, it went well considering I had no light reference for this.

>>6786667
MG might be a little expensive for just a pose reference. Lately HG has been getting really good overall and are not nearly as expensive as MG or whatever Kotobukiya sells today.
