Newest art!

Whenever I get excited about a game and the ideas behind it, I usually draw stuff from either concept or notion. My first entry is my design of the omniframe, based on Kern's description of the mini-mech that Kern describes it as in the discord channel.

The idea is that the omniframe is similar to Shirow Masamune's mecha designs. I probably made mine too tall but I didn't want the pilot's legs showing(seemed odd to me), so I designed the thighs such that an entire human leg could fit. Also I still don't really know what the art style of ember is so that's why it may look kinda firefall-esque

I mean if that was in the game I'd certainly love it, That picture is really, really good.

Do you sketch often or only when it comes to a new game that you want to play?

Mood-based, really. Usually I draw out of inspiration(e.g. when BvS came out I was drawing batman everywhere) but I doodle often, in school notebooks and stuff.

Not going to lie, it's really nice. I would love to see more of your doodles, I don't know if you have a Deviant Art or something like to view them

This is the first sketch I have uploaded to anything :p. The only other thing I have uploaded(to discord) were designs for movement gear.

You asked.
It's not as good in quality or in art-style as my first post. Those were quick drawings to visualize what the core movement abilities/styles I'd like to see. Also this was from early July so I assumed the omniframe would simply be an exosuit, not a mini-mech as it is in the first post.

Neat ideas especially like the grappling shoulder cannon reminds me of bionic commando but on the shoulder :p

An idea Ejector pod or seat that can be activated just before the mech blows up
otherwise pilot is vaporized :eek:

Omniframe art is out! It has a LOT of details that would take a while to replicate with pencil and paper, so I will probably start off piece by piece, designing different heads and arms and stuff, before drawing a full mech. Once I have that done, I will try to design stuff into which the whole mech can sit/attach for flight, vehicular ground movement, underwater movement, etc.(e.g. a giant attachment that mounts on the mech)

Might as well update this with whatever art I'm doing related to Ember.

I made an edit of the omnimek such that is has more lighted textures(and consequently looks cooler in the dark, like firefall frames did)

Here is my current/most updated edit(Purposefully darker image to accentuate the lights)
