Orka

After a month of failing to make my Orka design, my persistence was finally paid off!

My mecha drawing (at least for traditional) are mostly influenced by the style of Transformers Prime, when it comes to digital though, it just turns into a whole different style.

I'm planning on doing more research and gathering references for mechanical parts to increase my visual library. And make some models so I can start learning how to kitbash and make designs quickly.

For now, I want to enjoy the fruit of my first mecha design.

Quick drawing of an original mecha design.

The color of the mecha is suppose to be mainly black and white, but shading in black will make some of the details hard to see so I just left these areas white. 

I was inspired by the killer whales's white "eye spot", they look like eyes but they are not, the real eyes are very small and hard to see, so I want to create a mecha that gave the same "illusion".
