Overlay I designed for my animated poster featuring my custom modelled mech from the anime Gurren Lagann.
These are the final still graphics for the project. I wanted variation so I made a purple version so the option was there if it fit better. In the end I stuck with the red variant as my final choice because I thought it synergised with the hero asset more.
Here are some WIP Shots of the mech as I was modelling and unwrapping to prepare for texturing stage.
Blocked in details with freestyle lines to add to the anime aesthetic.
Added fire and some more details to the model itself.
As I was gathering reference materials for the modelling part of this project I also stumbled across this amazing graphic and used this as an inspiration in my own layout and composition.

This is the final product of my work. Ultimately I am very happy with the outcome but feel there is still a lot of room for my modelling skills to improve. One of the biggest challenges trying to do this was the lack of good reference material for the mech. However, with a mix of different references I was able to make it work.
