Wanda and MANTIS-01
🕑 Added 2021-04-30 00:25:59 +0000 UTCI'm doing a challenge for mech pilots and that weaboo shit. That's Wanda, a pilot of the Mongolian Federation from the far future where mechs exist :3
I even worked on a description for the robot. I'm including below!
Inside ZIP file - Sketches, flat colors, linearts and shadows. Also, there's an alternate version for Wanda (I scrapped that drawing but it's included too with a different clothing)
----------
MANTIS-01, Scout Class
Size: 4m
Strengths: Speed, close-combat, stealth
Weaknesses: Long-range units, bulky/reinforced targets
The gem of the Terracota Army, the MANTIS-01 is the center piece of many search-and-destroy operations from the Mongolian Federation. Acting both as scout and cavalry, the MANTIS-01 specializes on attacking enemy infrastructure, resources and provoking chaos behind the enemy lines, providing support to the infantry on invasions.
Equipped with the best technology on propulsion and aerodynamics, the MANTIS is capable of reaching supersonic speeds on it's aircraft configuration and has the best air maneuverability of all light-mech class. The suit is equipped with the best S.T.E.A.L.T.H technology, bypassing most of the radars available today. Some missions may include artillery for dogfights, although due to it's high energy consumption it's preferable the use of regular jets unless absolutely necessary.
But the most fearsome ability of the MANTIS is it's ability to camouflage with his surroundings. Surrounded by cameras and made of a special kind of alloy, the mech is able to photograph everything surrounding it and project an image when standing still to it's opponents - or even project dizzying patterns to disorientate enemies.
Although the suit has the best camouflage and maneuverability of all classes, it's unable to carry any weapons without breaking low profile. For this, the suit is equipped with a plasma cutter claws and electric strikes, enabling attacks that mess with the enemies mech systems or creating electric fields powerful enough to neutralize whole squadrons - of course, it's close-quarters combat is another weakness, but with it's speed and stealth, it shouldn't be a problem to the pilot.
A true one-man-army, the MANTIS is able to take objectives and conclude a whole mission alone - that's if it has the right man to pilot it.
