The Mech Cooperative project. Warning BIG.
A while ago I posted some teaser pics of a mech Antares and I designed and modeled in 3D. Those were the unused designs. These are the chosen drawings, refined over time and modelled in 3D.
These are the sketches that directed the design away from a squat tank like mecha, to a more refined machine with an almost "avian" quality.

These are more unused sketches demonstrating several unused concepts such as reactive armor and sloping plates.

This pic is more in line with the final design and helped shape future iterations of our mech.

This is the final sketch outlining the details and features of the mech.
As rough as it is, it's still full of detail. I wish I had put more effort into it.

Alas the final result. Weeks of labor in design and communication brought to fruition by Antares and myself.

Herbay, i want to thank TheMuffinKing for his great concepts and cooperate with me
Actually, it was my first cooperation of this kind and it worked out great.
Uhm ... even though TheMuffinKing invested muchmore time i suspect.

Wonderful!
Beautiful!
Staggering!
But..eh...
Methinks it's legs be too small, or the top too big.

Praying is another way of doing nothing helpful

Very Marauder, with a touch of Black Python/Viper. I like.

I think the torso being big is no problem, because
most of it is hollow anyway. Anyway, thanx for outlining it.
Scaling up the legs doens't take much time with a 3D model
Here's another version with 10% size increase of the legs.

Wow, very good
I, too, will suggest that you add some "meat" to the legs, I could see them supporting the body but they look kinda skiny.

'Ai! ai!' wailed Legolas. 'A Balrog! A Balrog is come!'
Gimli stared with wide eyes. 'Durin's Bane!' he cried, and letting his axe fall he covered his face.
'A Balrog,' muttered Gandalf. 'Now I understand.' He faltered and leaned heavily on his staff. 'What an evil fortune! And I am already weary.'
