Description
A couple of weeks ago, I suddenly had an urge to draw a Gundam Girl... If you don't know what I mean by Gundam Girl, another term is Gundam Armour, which is basically turning a Gundam into a girl wearing parts of it as armour... A good example would be RX78-2 Gundam here: [link]and MX-X1 Crossbone Gundam, here: [link] (Both by Akitaka Mika, not myself)
Well, that said, I couldn't at the time decide on what Gundam to do.
After a while, I then had the urge to do some Mega Man fanart, but again, couldn't quite decide on what to do... When the thought occurred to me! A Gundam Mega Man!
I then decided to pick a rather familiar Gundam, one that would be easy to recognise; Wing!
I'm really happy with how this turned out... Especially the highlights... I've spent enough time on it for it to turn out good.
I've actually lost track of how much time I spent on this one...
Based on the Mega Man ZX series, mostly models ZX and LX.
This picture was heavily referenced, but drawn and coloured entirely by myself.
EDIT:
Sketch: [link]
Lineart: [link]
Yes, I was planning on drawing a second picture of her with something similar to Model Z's Z Saber instead of the buster, but I am teh lazy (might do it later). You can see how much changed between the sketch and lineart, mostly the jewl on the helmet (originaly a near exact copy of Wings, but changed to have a more Mega Man-like Jewl), and the bust canon was longer and attached at the arm (like with X) but figured this would hinder switching between sword and gun, so went with a smaller version of the buster similar to what Model ZX has. The legs were pretty much completely re-drawn.

Thanks!
I've been thinking of doing a couple of others, or something else but along similar lines as well.. (taking things from two series and making something 'original' that is) or I might just do another G-ZX design based on another Gundam... But I cant decide at the moment...
