Hector Mexia
Concept Artist and Character Designer
The reaper
My goal was to design a badass and functional killer mech
Original concept, a very stylized animesque robot, not very functional joints
Did some explorations in order to figure out the joints
Secret weapon idea?
Decided to scrap the original thin version,felt weak for a military type.
In this lineart reached a very functional and stylized look
Setting the mood and values
Was hard to say goodbye to the scythe shaped machine gun,but after placing the wall in the right place, y realized how much of a nuinsance would such long weapon be in narrow places
According to my friends, the thumps up one was the best
Changed the composition in favor of diagonals
