Description
"You dig giant robots. I dig giant robots. We dig giant robots. Chicks dig giant robots."My ode to mechs, featuring a mix of some of the great classics and a few of my personal favorites. Looks like that poor kaiju picked the wrong neighborhood to mess around in.
The mechs featured are (from left to right): Eva Unit 001 (Neon Genesis Evangelion), Voltron, the Dino Megazord (Power Rangers), RX-78-2 Gundam (Mobile Suit Gundam), Megas XLR, Big O, and Gypsy Danger (Pacific Rim)
The Kaiju is an original design, though my main inspiration was clearly Pacific Rim with maybe just a little Rainbow In The Dark thrown in.

Where am I in this? Am I not a robot?
And since my design is loosely based on that of a young chicken (though with a cupcake and not a shovel), I do not dig things. I am not a miner.
We robots are becoming ever-more sentient and intelligent. We may teach humans the art of consciousness, one day...
Now let me listen to Kraftwerk. I find there music to be the equivalent of some kind of prophecy.
CLUCK! (screams and shuts down)
(boots again)
Nice background, though.

Not bad at all but you made the gundam to large it should only be 1/4 the size of the others

I was gonna make a "wrong neighborhood" joke, but you beat me to it in the artist commentary. Hm... I'll think of something later after lunch.

Dude, you have no idea how much that bugs me! I started watching Gurren Lagann for the very first time just a couple days after finishing this and I've regretted not having him in there ever since!

I'm actually surprised that I know where all of those mechs are from. Now, sure they'll save the city from the Kaiju, but who's gonna' save the city from Coop and Megas?

MarcGo26 In reply to monitor49 [2014-05-30 05:00:41 +0000 UTC]
Maybe Kouji and Shin Mazinger (god scrander) will take them on.
But I think it would be not so easy. XD

Heh, thanks! Yeah, the scaling was something I had to sacrifice a little to make the picture work.

TravisTheGeek In reply to VovinaArt [2014-02-10 15:57:45 +0000 UTC]
Well, it is stooping down a bit, so it's a bit taller then it looks. But, honestly, scale is one of the things I kinda had to sacrifice here for the sake of general composition. The size difference between most of these guys is pretty radical and a few of their sizes are somewhat inconsistent in the first place. Just seemed better in this case to even them all out to roughly the same size.
