Djuke's Junk Food

Coolest shut-in you'll ever not meet.

Break it to me for real, guys.

Am I going nuts? Because i feel this is the kinda thing you do when you go nuts.

(Research notes for muh geopolitical mecha fidelity and general excuse to put cool logos on mechs) (ADDENDUM: Fuck the UralVagonZavod logo with the very tanks they manufacture!)

Hey long time no see, huh! I’m just coming off what probably is the worst summer i’ve ever had! Did YOU have fun? I DIDN’T!  8D On top of my major rearing its ugly head around the corner, i’ve also had to put up with two important surgeries. Good times, good times. Anyways, thanks for whoever stuck around, i know who you are, y’all beautiful. I’ll try and get back on board, if anything positive ever came out of this is that i have a light board for tracing, so sketches should get clearer at the very least. I’ll have to do something for 100 followers, but not before i see if the number’s still in place after i factor out the porn bots. (thanks for the support btw, i’m a huge fan of your work). And maybe, big ass hypotetical here, muster up confidence/ideas for a oneshot or whatever-sequential-art-anything-related. Catch you soon, i hope!

Le usual dump, but with more soldier bois. I MAY have a good concept for a mecha story. So now gather around and watch how in the following weeks i'm only gonna post production sketches and basically write myself in a corner!

Hey would you like it better if I just scanned the whole page, instead of carpet bombing your timelines with separate posts?

[djuke]

Friend: how do you come up with these details for arm and legs? Me: *sweating while eyeballin my uncle's construction equipment*

[djuke]

Progressively messier

[djuke]

JUST FINE, REALLY

[djuke]

Yes, i'm okay

[djuke]

*emerges from cave, holding a scrap of paper* Hey I thought this looked cool

Today on “I need to re-learn how to brush”:

My favourite mgs character

Loves me some of the saddest fucking cyborgs ever written, when i'm under the weather

New amphibious unit for rainforests OPs i’m conceptualizing these days.

Yes. It has a sack on its head. Look up the Danish Special Forces equipment, it’s a thing i swear!

I’ll post schematics soon, that should shed some light on how it works.

(Also thank you all for the recent shower of love, i really needed that)

[djuke]

Good luck figuring this shit out (Holy shit tumblr, stop making my pages look like they’re made for ants, it’s a fucking a4, jesus christ)

[djuke]

Pilot concepts dump. Annnd not much else, sorry!

You may think you’re half-assin’ it, but your mech sketches are lookin’ sweet. How long do they take?

Thank you!It all depends on the planning, as it is the part that takes the most time of all.Like, the smaller ones (single, isolated parts) i can do in a jiffy, cause i don’t really have to think in relation to the rest of the body.I just do a “cool” shape and store it in references.  (approx. 5-10 minutes)The last one was kinda of a bitch honestly!It took me a solid half a day (cumulatively), seeing how the head part related to the body,and the body to the legs and arms andwhatifiputdustcovershereohgeeze.Also i really wanted it to give off some schematics/concept art feel, dunno if i pulled that last one off,tho.(I’d give an honest hour estimate, but with exams coming up i barely even remember my age these days)

I’m proud of my new big boye. Considering i only 3/4 assed it. Now wait till i fuck this up in glorious digital coloring.
