Well i drew this in try to clear off my artblock. Its already partially cleared.

I was watching back the old mecha anime series Metal Armor Dragonar, so i sort off felt like redesigning Kaine Wakaba's D-1.

I kept most of the design as close to the original and gave it a large high speed lifter pack and a 1300 mm Flax cannon. in addition two belt attached 1000 mm machine cannons, other than that the other weapons are more or less the same as the original one.

honeycomb is the ultimate harmonic design in nature besides the spiral...

and

it's inherent modular perfection and natural strength in structural performance is unsurpassed...

definitely something humans need to study and incorporate more in there architecture and engineering projects..

Buckminster Fuller used modular design concepts in his innovation of the geodesic dome designs... (walt disney used the design for the future world..etc)

he studied atomic structures, atoms and molecules for structural strength and inncorporated the designs in his architecure...

the innovative desiners are out there.. their thoughts are just too extreme and radical for the common man... (daily use and purposes)

lol yeah, but somehow ppl still end up pointing honeycomb too closely related to bee's. Just a typical mindset of human and their thinking. XD

This is awesome, I like every detail of this ms. You are very talented mecha artist and your works have always very original and beautiful design.

LOL its not a MS but a Metal Armor. This is the same guy that created of Gespent's, (and the other custom variant) you can say its his earlier works and if you look at the original will note the similarities.

LOL the old just looks too bulky to fly, by my standards. The least the could done is give the unit a larger lifter pack.

Very cool man :) Nice to see some old school love. I remember Dragonar 1, it was a pretty cool Gundam knockoff from the golden 80s era of anime robot shows. Quite cool.
