Jurassic Mecha...

Another design of Baraldia, I envision this to be some kind of sentry or guard. I started this design with a samurai dragon in mind, but it soon became some kind of cyborg Hadrosaur. I have a tendency to draw things with big beefy shoulders, so this time I wanted to try something a little more pear shaped!

The sketch languished on my wall for over a year before I finally pulled my finger out and scanned it to be painted in Photoshop. I think I've inadvertently channelled a very Dead Space-esque colour scheme, but hey Dead Space is awesome. Robot artist par excellence Don Figueroa was a huge influence in the making of this.
