Thank you so much berrysquare!!!
I'll keep that in mind as I continue with my process, the bottom lefty is one of my favs too

Took one step further my initial sketches, adding details into my main two mech suits, nothing is certain yet.
I've decided to play some more changing mediums, I'm planning to do some quick loose inks to explore more designs aspects.

I've pushed my options with some quick inks exploration.
C&C are more than welcome

I'm going to try some more of those and then explore some concepts about how weapons been installed in the battlesuits.

Almost done, need to do the back and move quickly to add color variations.
I have also done some thumbs searching my final composition for the splash image.

Working on the back view

Thank you so much Berryscuare, turnaround sketching is really time-consuming, I will start the main illustration tomorrow and I hope I will finish it on the edge
I have done some pencil thumbs to nail my composition, I will scan them and upload them soon.

Taking a break from the linework to scan my thumb process for my splash page
also, it clears my head a little from the demand turnarounds needs.

I have chosen 3 possible poses to go for but nothing's certain yet, If you do have some fav please let me know

The back view is almost done, I start thinking about the color palettes I want to apply in the X-calbr armor.
