Planet Express Fist.
... is the the only pun I could come up with that wasn't wildly inappropriate :D
And yes; it is a gigantic, rocket-powered fist on the rotor-disc torso from a little while back.

:D ahaha, the head's totally too large but it amuses me, so it will continue to exist until I come back and fix this later with a new illustration.
(based on my usual follow-up, that will be somewhere between five years and never).

Throwback to... 2020? I think.
The linework is so crunchy because I was using random pens on marker pad (but still scanning to colour digitally) at the time.
MTV dude for scale.

Throwback, this time in the colours of a tennis ball.
Not sure if the sword being so short is good or bad.

The original shiptember colur-scheme for this one was a little plain. This one pops more and the decal compliments the biomechanical nature of the aircraft.

Removing your head and neck, and then replacing them with a gigantic armoured radome, will free you of those pesky critical hits.
Not sure why I put a clavicle mounted sensor array in there given that my mechs, by-and-large, never seem to have eyes.

Me: How much purple do you want this week?
Also me: Yes.
The parts -are- floating, which makes an already questionable design well beyond the bounds of good reason.

Seemed like a wizard-mech was a good candidate for some iteration on the arm-cloak idea from one of my mechatober mechs.
The colours are also a vague reference, as I was thinking about something in particular when I was choosing the scheme.

Not sure why I put vents on my mechs; my head-cannon on how they're powered and operate has no call for them. I guess it's a vestigial design cue.
But, then again, why do I put tongues and teeth on half of them?

Lots of teeth, big hands, big tongues, tiny little feet. Everything a well-balanced robot needs. Thighs are somewhat thundery too.

Finally back to the grindstone and doing some illustrating.
I kind of like the idea of integrating some hightop-like elements into my future feet designs.

Some sketches to evidence that the normal schedule will resume shortly.
I've got the stupid ideas down, need some cake n' thunder, and then some wild hats to tick all the boxes.

A throwback to more thundery days, when my mechs couldn't hold their entire selves in their own hands.
Which was, realistically, not that long ago.

Recoloured, and ready for operation "immodest thunder."
Still heavily preoccupied with other projects, which are unlikely to be finished this week, and kind of annoying as I'd just like to do some more random illustrations.

Just posting a throwback (recoloured, of course) to fill the void of apparent inactivity.
I'm currently working on a whole load of graphics /overlays ATM so I haven't been doing a lot of illustration.

#mechatober2025 no 28, Crystal.
My original idea for this one was sub-par so, in a way, I'm glad I left it until waaay late to do it properly; I think this one has some neat elements to it that I'd like to improve on in the future.

I refuse to accept this new month's attempt to stop me getting everything finished on schedule :D

It's basically a skating mech with jet engines for fists, that naruto-runs.
I like the idea, not so much the execution, so it's one I'll return to at another point.

I don't know why, after the monowheel tank, I was struggling for an idea for tread: All I had to do was design a robot that used the instability of a trike to ruin the functionality of a tank! :D
