Description Yay I've posted!
I've pushed art stuff aside these past few weeks. I had lost my job and gain another through job search so art hasn't really been on my radar for awhile. I am well aware of art requests and comics I have to post, so hopefully I can get those up soon.

----

I decided to do a mecha because
1. I have never drawn mecha before (now you know why this one isn't all that great)
2. There aren't a lot of artwork relating to Danny's exoskeleton suit when he fought Pariah Dark.

Granted I have drawn Danny's exo-suit before but was never happy about it. So this came about.
This time I used rulers and curved lines to make the lineart, the pen tool seems to ruin or distort what I want to achieve :/
And I think it turned out well.

The design is a mix of the original with a gundam influence - as well as mixing in a bit of Dan's clothing colour scheme. Since this is my first mecha I decided to keep it simple.

The way it is designed is to be close in combat, with a mix of flexibility and durability. The suit doesn't use guns but it is very nimble.
Rather than relying on Danny's power, it runs on Ectoranium. It carries none of the ghost like abilities but it causes major damage on ghost enemies since ectoranium nullifies ghost abilities.
This means Danny can only pilot this when he is human but it also means that ghosts can't hijack it use it against him.

The discs at the back allow the suit to keep afloat while withing the zone and uses less power than rockets (thus more power to kill things). Also the glow sword runs on ectoranium. A piece of the stone is on the end of the hilt.

The only downside is that its vulnerable to real world weaponry but it wasn't really designed to fight humans.

My fave part are it's legs. I love how they turned out and how it carries the ectoranium glow.

Anywayz... enjoy or destroy!

Well the only Gundam I have seen is Gundam Seed... but I've drawn inspiration on the latest Gundam Series designs.
Erh, sorry I donn't know too much about Gundam yet... I haven't watched much anime of it...

I know you said that Gundam influenced this...and I can totally see it, but I thought of the Lancelot and the Shinkiro from Code Geass. It's very awesome. ^w^

Really, cool. Well it's just an inspiration from Gundam, not exactly like it.

Danny Phantom meets Transformers (or, some Mecha related anime)

nice job.
and, your right...teh Exoskeleton needs MORE ART.

quikshadow In reply to MetroXLR [2011-03-22 08:58:08 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! Well I never consider this to be transformers since that machinery is WAAAAY more advanced. I'm a noob at this thing. But I get where you are coming from.

I dunno I usually see the same type of dp art and would like to see more machinery or other characters or situations from the fandom.

Is it just me or does Danny look like a Transformer this way? Awesome picture btw really well done.

quikshadow In reply to Linariel [2011-03-22 08:59:48 +0000 UTC]

I dunno if I would consider this a transformer thing, transformers is more advanced machinery that what I could ever draw!
I can see Danny piloting this thing C:

Thanks! I appreciate your thoughts!

Nice pic! I wouldn't have thought it was your first mecha. I tried to draw Dannys suit myself but I was never satisfied with the results. :/ Your pic is really cool, though. I love the color scheme you used and the ectoranium sword looks neat, too. I also like the gundam influence in your design... although I was a little confused at first because I'm also watching #MobileSuitGundam00 and I was wondering why there was a gundam in #DannyPhantomPhans XD
Anyway, I think your describtion is very interesting and it's a good idea to have the suit running on ectoranium. Seriously I just love your picture! Makes me wanna draw Dannys suit, too.
Great job.

quikshadow In reply to Metaltrude [2011-03-22 09:08:20 +0000 UTC]

Lol. You know I haven't watch a lot of Gundam, I've been meaning to make some time and sit down to watch a marathon of a few series. Im not good at drawing machines but mecha is always fun to watch and see others create.

This is my first mecha (why does that sound like a picture book) but not my first machine drawing. I was pretty happy as to how the colour scheme turned out.

The sword was a last minute change. I was going to go for something bigger and longer but I ran out of room on my page and I didnt have the patience to draw it out completely and stick it in with photoshop, lol.

Draw Danny's suit if you've got one in mind. There isn't many drawings in relation of the exoskeleton in the series.

Metaltrude In reply to quikshadow [2011-04-23 10:54:36 +0000 UTC]

lol. It sure looks like a Gundam, though! Mecha is awesome! XD

And I know what you mean. I often make last minute changes, too, because I'm too lazy to draw something XD

I might try Danny's suit some time (soon? XD) ... It's really a shame there are so few drawings of it.^^

quikshadow In reply to Metaltrude [2011-04-26 20:45:54 +0000 UTC]

I always make last minute changes but there are a few drawings that are the same from sketch to the finished product.

Give his suit a shot if you want to.
