I’ve never really equated super greably or complex designs with realism, cuz I always imagine that MS and other mechs
look streamlined and elegant in the way that fighter jets do
But the AAA-ified modern designs can also be aesthetically equated, to more complex irl vehicles
@SpencerButlerVA Yea, and I also think the iconography of the mechs is pretty important, even in-lore. I.E., a gundam HAS to look like a gundam because it terrifies enemies; the people see them as bizarre, incomprehensible machines so they probably have to commit to that aesthetic
Also, huge shoutout to Kaijelin animation who helped with parts of the animating, and blacknexus92 who provided the awesome cover of the song!! Both on YT
@chchchch1tf Fantastic pic as per usual 👌 I’m upset at how expensive these BW MPs are on the aftermarket, I’ve always wanted the lot of them, they’re all gorgeous!
ARISE, RODIMUS PRIME!
This is about as close as I'm gonna get to finishing this
(with some rough, hilarious-looking storyboarding!) and a lot of keying work and other help by my friends Kaijelin and Sanimation
