Galfa

Pencil colored in Photoshop.

The Galfa light mech, seen here in both a military version for armored recon use and a civilian version for rally racing.

I was trying to channel Kow Yokoyama & Makoto Kobayashi on this design.

I tried something new for me on this one: texture overlays. I'd avoided them up 'til now because I've been focused on purely "painterly" techniques and textures felt a bit like a shortcut (not a judgement, just where I am right now.) But since this was mostly a coloring job I tried them out. I went around the house and took photos of baking sheets, shoe soles, pants, a tarp and a WWI helmet to pull textures from. Pretty fun, and I like the way it turned out. I'm looking forward to using them more.
