Description
I was just going through some old project Mecha folders and sketch books the other night, when i found this line art
i haven't seen this one in ages 
It was line art, looked like it wasn't even finished, just basic strokes of graphite pencil!
So i got into the mood, wacked on my head phones and cranked some phat base ans finished colouring these 2 bad boys! >:]
This is Mecha
in all his glory! He is a clone of Mario.. and no, his name isn't Mecha Mario.... its just...Mecha Short for Metal Engineered Cyber Hybrid Android
I know.. it's a mouth full hey? lol.That little boo looking thing on Mecha's side is called Boo Bot, he got cloned right before Mecha did.
Kamek was just "testing" out his clone machine.. and adding CPU's and AI into all sorts of stuff to test it first, and Boo Bot was his first creation.
Boo Bot fly's around along side Mecha.. he has a targeting computer in him, so he is kinda like Mecha's third eye.
Boo bot can even go where Mecha cannot.. so he is a perfect spy cam.
He reports back info for Mecha with stuff like "the location of Mario and his friends" maps, special things Mecha wants to know about.. ect...
heh.. who need a GPS when you have Boo Bot!

Hope you likes it!

I know you might get asked this a lot, but what is project Mecha? Is it a fanfic you started? If so, where can I read it? If not, is it a story told by pics, like this one? If so, where can I see them all in order?
ย BTW, the story (or what I got from the pics) is great! I love your art!!!

You can read more about Project Mecha here: natsilva.deviantart.com/gallerโฆ
I don't have a fan fic site so all my stuff is here on dA.
It depends, it can be scenes from what I want them doing from the actual story yes. So a few pics here and there with scenes of it or it can be a mini comic but nothing has started with it...maybe I should start it once WIGU is finished
Thank you so much though

WIGU...? And you're welcome, it's an amazing idea.

If you bothered to check the gallery folders you will see what WIGU is. :b

You know it seems more logical if ludwig was the creator because kamek isnt all that smart

Great job. However, I think Mecha's new name should be Mecha Mario. >
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
No, I wanted it to be Mecha because the word MECHA actually means more than you know

I get lost soooo much

Wow that's so awesome! If only Nintendo made a game like this....

The only downside to having a boo bot is that it self-destructs. So when it booms, you boom.

My god, this is so impressive NatSilva! How you stated that this was first just a few strokes of line art, but then you finished it and it came out like this.. Impressive!!
What i like about this is
1) It's a sketch looking piece
2) The facial expression
3) The atmosphere it adds without a crammed background.
I also like how you draw eyes! It's amazing how you do them, would love to know how you do what you do!
Anyways, great work, this is a fave for sure!
By the way, i remember your art work from NMS and Nintendo Gamer, great to see you're here on deviantART now.. have you any idea how long it took to find you? Well, not long.. I google'd you.
*is shy now for some reason*
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Hahahahaha! 
Anyways, ahh yes.. NMS and NGamer, <3 Australia lacks mahor time with mags .___. i read the official one now, but eh... lacks some thign NMS had
The eyes? lol, heh yeh funny you should mention that.. ive slightly evloved the way i do em, its hard to teach ppl how to draw :3 so i cant really tell you how i do em.. and i would prefer not to give some stuff away, oh theres a few vids on youtube if you are keen on actually SEEING how i draw.. 
lol, google is your friend

Oh.....................
That is because I have been following your work for years, and when i found you had an account hee on deviantART, I stumbled on this art work. I have never seen it before on the NMS magazines or Nintendo Gamer, so i downloaded it and have been keeping it for a few months now. I'm sorry, i hope you don't mind me doing that without first asking!
Oh, you have a YouTube account? Oh my God! You are seriously the best fan artist ever! I must go find you!
Yes, the eyes, and now that you say that well, yeah i have the old issues of NMS and Nintendo Gamer, and yes i do see a different trait to how you used to draw them. Amazing!
That's okay, I understand if you don't want to share your secrets with anyone else, if I drew as good as you I wouldn't either! But I just need to know one thing,did you learn how to draw by yourself or did you go to art school or something? I have just, neve seen art like yours before! *is in a daze* I think I'm in love! With your art course. Okay, now i really feel weird!
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
lol..
Yeah.. i find it different anyways, and few of my close mates who have also seen my work for years tell me it's too anime now U_U; but ah well.. you evolve, and sometimes i look back at my past art work (lik from early 1999-2000) and laugh
Thanks for understanding.. :3 it's not that i don't wanna share my secrets, 
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
You're too awesome! You are a very normal person but the aura that you expel is amazing! You are nice to people, and also can stand up for yourself and friends!
But I can see where your work has evolved, may I say it's much cleaner colouring now, and thicker bolder lines, expressions have taken a different direction, and it's great to see you have evolved. If your friends love your art work from before, they should support you in whatever or where ever it takes you.
What is your YouTube account please?

Small, and informative..yes..

>:3 fun. I've actually seen some of your art and read some artist comments about Mecha, pretty awesome character
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Thanks
Mecha is a really cool add on to Mario.. i must admit
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Mecha is evil, yet I fall in love with the Mechanical Android!!!
๐: 0 โฉ: 0
Wait...there's a Boo bot in the back! 
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Boo Bot has his evolution stages too..
Im sure you'll see more of the little Boo robot some time soon
Ya know how Mario and Luigi always have to go into dungeons and those haunted houses with boo's in them? well, i thought it would be cool if Mecha had a boo looking ally, it would make it (the story) seem more ....wierd.. as Mario characters usally run away or try and defeat boo's.. i dunno just thought it would go well with Mecha, and theres a GoomBot as well..
yes yes.. half Goomba half robot!
Indeed, i just had to have a meaning for Mecha- the idea hit me whilst trying to find a name for the fierce metal Mario clone.. and out popped the meaning to M.E.C.H.A
Thanks Koji, im glad you liked his expression and in general, your comment
Yes, he does seem like he is plotting.. XD
wonder what about!! O_O
