Mechstuff thread. Mechs, robots, robot girls, weapons, armour, vehicles, military, engineering, transportation, scifi, etc. Post 'em.
Do I need to study engineering and firearms to be able to draw semi-realistic mechs? I started browsing /k/ and have been wondering if it helps.
>>8018398Industrial design would definitely help. HR Giger studied industrial design. That's probably one of the reasons why he was able to make his biomechanical paintings look very realistic partly.I guess studying Scott Robertson could probably help.
Here’s my most recent mech girl, studies and techniques based on Masamune Shirow and rendering techniques inspired by Jim Lees stream. I love the way he uses the black and and white star splatter. I achieved the after burn particles with a tooth brush.
>>8018395aww sweet, was hoping we'd have another one of these threads.here are my WIP floor plans for my kilometer-long covie ship. about 55% done with deck 1 of 12. scaled at M6.667 scale (1 pixel = 15x15 centimeters, or a little less than 6 inches)full image here: https://itaku.ee/images/1348257anyone else experiencing a "captcha expired" bug? ublock issue?
Any tips on drawing guns?
>>8021319most important thing is the handle. doesn't matter how big the gun is, the handle has to be the right size for the wielder. handles are usually 1.25 to 1.5 inches wide and around 5 or 6 inches long.
>>8018395This stuff is impossible. Wheels leave me confused the most.
>>8028691>>8024137into the inspo folder.How long have you been drawing? Hours per day practice on average?Would be happy to hear back from you. It's sort of the level I want to reach.
good night mechbros!
>>8024137just wait until you start trying to do car suspension and understand what all the parts of an engine do. makes anatomy look like easymode.
>>8031505anatomy is easy mode, the only people who think it's some demanding undertaking are the type to spend 5 years "studying gesture"

>>8031537At least I can copy it. With machines I can't even do that. Like, how the fuck am I supposed to do this? >>8031544>>8028711I think you missclicked on me. I am just a permabeg.
