Mache and Mata rework concept designs and sketches

I’ve had these characters for a couple years now and wanted to give them a rework. They are from a comic of mine from 2022, you can read here. I am planning another comic for the, (script is already done as well as their new reference sheets.). So I thought I’d share  my process with you guys. Also, follow me on pillowfort.

And for a blast from the past: here are their first designs. 

It was 2022. I was still learning how to draw robots at the time. They came to be during a college assignment where my narrative illustration teacher told us to make a six page comic dealing with the apocalypse. So I elided to do a slice of life comic about a girl and her robotic consort running some errands on a colony planet. 

This was Mata’s first iteration. I had him able to turn into a backpack and before that a scooter because I had transformers on the mind. He also had this huge goggles because a transformer named Rung had some influence on em. Mata was the more outgoing and energetic of the two. (I really wanted to flip the “warm human with cold robot” dynamic.) generally chipper and upbeat about damn near everything. Especially his girl. The enthusiasm mod helps but the rest is all him. He is very food motivated and affectionate. 

This is Mache’s first iteration. I had a lot more planned for her, she was to be a mechanic/doctor who helped free her and her mentor’s colony from a rigid caste system. She had a specialty for dealing with hot metals. But it all got trimmed down to “girl travels around with her lover” and , well, that worked too. Better even as this series was suppsoed to be way more fluff slice of life oriented than my other ones. Been if they do cross over now and again.  I really liked Mache’s hairstyle, tho it’s surprisingly annoying to draw. Mache is to the point, down to earth , and keeps her composure. Mata is often the one to make her lose her composure but thats beside the point. She still adores him. 

Again, You can read their old comic here.

Some more recent sketches are here:

I was practicing some gestures and such with mache. I wanted a better understanding of her form and such. 

Some cute and ominous sketches of Mata. I gave him a thing for earrings because, why not?

And Mache and Mata flipped. Mata’s human form and Mache possibly as an enari. Her “hair” resembles coiled rotary wires. 

I was just feeling romantical.
