Description The APU project has enters it's third month of production. so far i have the outline clean up in photoshop which took me two months and this is the outcome. using photoshop for most of the outline clean up, the colored red and blue outline was traced in illustrator, and i have bought a new wacom drawing tablet prepare for coloring. Those bits and pieces of spare parts around the APU are actually digital amendment i did in photoshop to have APU correct to it's correct prespective and propotion, especially the rounded parts. Even Alphaleo went throught a lot of amendment.

This is propably the most insane art i ever did in my life so far. enjoy! and wait for the colored version.

The detail and dedication you're putting into this peice blows my mind. I don't have the patience (or free time ) to do something like this. This is just...just... WOW.

Can't wait to see the colored version of this... although my head might just explode upon seeing it's awesome-ness!

Grinz, dat's coolz! *Truck Gundam and APU go head to head!* Trina pilots Truck Gundam as APU takes up position. She fires off forty rounds of explosive bullets which can pierce 3 inch hardened case steel* APU returns fire after cowering behind a three foot block of concrete. the rattle of gunfire echoes as APU lets off volley after volley of fire only to see he's completely missed the fast moving Truck. Truck opens its jawz and a much larger version of a Mini Gun slings out and opens fire ripping off huge chunks oc concrete as the HailStorm gun blazes away. Trina grinz as she hits a few switches and several P.A.C.K missiles take off all following the leader to its target. APU dodges too late and loses one of its expensive arms as one after another all ten missiles close in and rip large parts of his armored exoskeletal drive off!! APU's drive quickly draws a small surrender flag as Trina readies to unleash another round of [link] at him. Trina sees the flag and ceases fire, She grins. Back to the drawin board there buddy! Trina yells as Truck blasts one of its semi horns* APU's driver is covered in blackened oil, bits of debris and staring wide eyed at Truck Gundam..*

However, unbeknowst to Apu's driver,.. the very target he shot at was still alive! thanks to her heavy military munitions jacket which softened and stopped the attack! Trina grinned as she shook off the incredibly hard hit, and grinning she had Truck Gundam pick APU up and toss the hapless Exoskeleton and driver three miles away!! Trina headed back to base to reload on her munitions and to prepare for the next encounter if it ever happens with.. A.P.U...

The battle.. continues..

Oh really now? *thanks for round one, will see if YOU win round II..hehehehe.*ebil cackles* ^^ Still, I love the effort you've put into your machine drawing! Tis very detailed and mechanically sound. *for the most part* if it were a real working operational system, you'd have to design an onboard intuitive biomechanical mesh system to allow Alphaleo to control the A.P.U fast enough so it's like a natural extention of his physical self. ^^ *no doubt you or Alphaleo already thought of this when he/You designed the exoskeletal extension.* *Trina has a half/half control. Truck, her home, and her wee lil puppy Boo Boo, reborn as a semi and smart, work together as a mech/bio team to battle opponents. Seems Alphaleo has to depend on his own wits and skill in running the machine, it'll only do what he wants with no input from itself*his exoskeleton* in a battle.*

Somehow the word 'detail' doesn't quite gather the impact i need to describe this. It's like...photo realistic amounts of detail. As far as i can tell, every single part lines up, including to the dynamic perspective. I've sat and studied this hard for the last 15 minutes, and i can still see no wrong. Seriously, what sort of pencil do you use? GodStick? This is awesome work. And i don't mean the 'Hey this hot dog has two sauces! It's awesome!'. I mean awesome in the way that it leaves you speechless, completely dumbfounded and lost for words. Jaw on the floor, tongue rolled out five feet in front of you and brain turned to mush.

It's no suprise to me that this has taken this long to do, and it's completely justifiable. I'd be pleased if i could pull something like that off in a year.

I look forward to seeing more brain-blasting work from you, sir.

wow, u need not to sit down 15 minutes to study it. i can still pin point out a lot of mistakes in less than 1 minute.

i used 0.5 HB mechanical pencil for the pencil outline, later in photoshop i did kost of the clean up by recreating some of the parts, and some are digitally retrace from illustrator.

wow o.o I've never done mecha but this looks like it took alot of patients...I don't have too much patience ; so I could never put so much detail into a drawing. Very awesome work, good luck on coloring it...looks like it'll take some time. 0o;

people seems draw matrix fan art in the matrix world where everyone is perfectly equiped, but i'm going the opposite side by doing the zion's world where everything seems to be falling apart.
