I'm about 50% done with my animation, so I decided to paint something. Now that I've gotten a taste of drawing mechs, I've decided to go all in on it. I've always really liked how they look, but I was really intimidated to draw some because they look really detailed. I didn't even know where to start! But they're really not so bad. Once you know how to do forms (sphere, cube, etc) you can do it. I've already gotten pretty good at drawing people, so there's no sense in practicing it all the time when there's other skills I can level up. In all honesty, I think regular anatomy is a little harder to get right. On armor and stuff the ribcage and pelvis are usually defined separately, while on a person it's hidden. So yeah.

I decided to start with something easier and work my way up to the more detailed ones, so I drew Zero from the Megaman series. I haven't played any of the games, but I've always thought his design was really cool. Simple but efficient, that's how I like it. I think I have to work on rendering metal a little more, but that's why I'm practicing it. Next... I'm thinking of doing Getter 2. All attack is the best defense! I also figured out a way to stress my hand less, all I had to do was lower the angle of my tablet. Good stuff.
