A purple aquatic creature guides this warcraft. Any suggestions?

hmmm, looks kind of akward, ya know. if you are going to make limbs, it might look better if you make all 4, just a thought.

Ah.. The infamous Mary Kay Mech. No self-respecting make-up saleswoman would be caught without one of these! Make three times the deliveries three times as fast! Note the huge make-up applying gun protruding from the front. It's a good thing that it's made out of super-light PAPER, or else the entire mech would FALL/TIP OVER right on it's face!

My signature is slightly better than yours.

Ya, thanx for the hilarious crit. Didn't even see that comming.

it's perfectly feasible that there could be enough power in the legs to support this mech with that gun even assuming it was made out of normal gun materials...even in the pose seen here...the design of all the individual parts isn't bad, it just doesn't look cool overall...

if you're designing something you want to have a prevailing visual aesthetic...for instance, the body is relatively squat, but the legs are pretty long and thin...those are two different aesthetics that are causing people to have conflicting views about how they're supposed to feel about the design overall...if you want to design a sleek mech then try to make everything about it reflect sleekness...if you want to design a short squat mech...then design for that aesthetic...here's some stuff that may help you see what im talkin about:


don't take these literally...im not as good at designing mechs as you are...but based on what ive observed from gundam and other mech stuff there's certain rules that you follow to make an aesthetically cool looking mech and this is just what i understand of them...

hopefully someone with some actual knowledge will respond and try to help you but often times people are unclear as to whether someone who spent a lot of time on a design wants people to see how many jokes they can make about it, or if they actually were looking for serious critique...it's a common error

Ya, the mech would look much better with four legs.

[Akolyte]

Four legs, lose the penile attachment. Thank you.

[Tyson Allen]

wow thanks, this is only my 2nd mech design. Ya, I will put 4 legs, and I like the penial laser, it's quite nice....and practical serves purpose

[Fate]

Wha............just what is that....it's.....it's....purple....

Nice visual.

Umm.....I like designing mechs too. It's really hard, I try to design some cool mechs not like mechwarrior style but like Gundam or Escaflowne, Japanese style in general.
