Back again with another drawing. This time the walking oven Super Nova. What do you guys think. Ive started on another posed one and reworking the arms and smaller cockpit.



Rest of my art is found here. http://tigeri210.deviantart.com/

lol i see it in the bulkiness. Alot came from referencing the MekTek MW4 pack version.

Not a bad job. But give my opinion: Supernova should not be so cumbersome. With its outline it looks like Daishi. I would reduce the thickness of the torso. Hands would make more classic-style triangle. Footwells no complaints, but ... fingers on the feet need to do longer.

Personally? Do want. Ghost heat? IDGAF, I AM A DEATH STAR.

Looks great, proportions are spot on and awesome detail. I must be missing something reading previous comments. Perhaps the perspective its drawn in gives the illusions of a big torso.

The only thing i could gripe about is the the arms not being triangle shaped, even if it wasn't super triangley.
Either way love it!

I think the one comment is referring to the toes and yea i know is a bit off. The torso is slightly wide according to the old art but i was aiming to kinda compact it a bit.

The arms im probably gonna redo in the next one so its not as boxy.

I like it it needs a smoother edge to it though, but I can see what some view as similar to a Daishi/Dire Wolf... mostly in the legs and arm weapon-pods.

I definitely like your Drawing Style. nice and clean but with light shading. The Shoulders Rock, I love their shape and shoulder pads. I actually, also like the Ankles and hip pieces. It needs those Vents so BAD XD. The large cockpit makes it look like it's 50ton-nish mech comparable in size to the Storm Crow. the Shoulder plating and the shoulders are keepers. It does look front heavy though, but I don't know if that's what you were going for.

The arms do need more personality, but not really much, they look functional and heavily plated.
Yea, my only issue is the cockpit because it makes it look like a Medium mech.

I changed my mind. The Arms are actually kinda cool. Especially, if they're the hard point focus/specialty of the Mech. Try to make it more different from the Storm Crow, but take my opinion or leave it. Do what you think is best.

wow, well, tbh, the supernova is my most beloved chassis form ALL mechs ever. But what you painted is quite fat. Stop feeding it pls.

Your paining, (great technic) is still too bulky and cubic. It looks like a cool mech indeed, but its not a Supernova.

The supernova is like a sportscar amongst the mechs, or just a sexy curvy girl.
The Supernova is defined by its rounds and ovals, and more "flatter" design. Also the Torso and the Nose are quite long. Which always was a big downside since missing its arms was quite impossible unless you had serious parkinson. And once the arms were shot off, well you were just an earodynamic copit on feet.





Even it MW3 where polygon models had troubles to make real "round" shapes they catched that design quite nicely:




when seeing the Nova I always get


this in my mind. You see the "inner" sahpe where those black and 3 "round triangles" appear? this somehow defines some parts of the Supernova.

It defines yourghly the shape of th whole torso and the leg part attached to the torso. Also the cockpit itself seeen from the front is kidna smaller shape of this.
It also defines grilles on the nose and the arms as well

your Thor drawing for example is great in being a thor and a drawing.

lol i got that eons ago in earlier posts. Im working on a better version whenever i get to it so dont rustle those jimmies to much. but noted.

[SgtMagor]

I like it, I like it a lot!. big bulky, like the Dire Wolf. fits right into MWO. if they make a Super Nova, I hope its like yours, or just use your concept
