This Fixes The Problem Ive Had With This Story Since I Was A Kid.

This fixes the problem I’ve had with this story since I was a kid.

We had to write a Mini Comic for my Illustration Class so I did mine based on The Frog and The Scorpion. Hopefully you all know the story!

Done with watercolor and pen and ink nib.

Heavyarms build pt. 2

I haven’t touched this thing in a week due to the flu. Finally did the leg packs. Still waiting on the Micromesh I ordered so I can finally paint the gold titanium.

Painted the tank and going to do the ammo chain in beige too, the Gatling gun will be interesting

Finally matched the orange, Gatling gun is coming along nicely :)

Finally got all the stuff in for the gold titanium starting to throw that on.

Have to redo one part but otherwise gonna throw some decals on and it should be good

There was a bubble. Poked it with a brush. Took part of the decal. Hand painted to fix it 😖

Another example of the ivory shading. The left is done the right is just primered with all ivory and no highlights.

A different lighting.

Recently changed the blue on my RX-78. I originally went for more realistic colors but I really fell in love with the verka blue. I may use this color on something else in the future.

Im half considering re-doing the red too.
