I'm sure I must have done a few mistakes with Robo's design and I admit, I'm not all that enthusiastic when it comes to drawing mechas and robots. But I am happy with the way how Giant Robo looks. ^^

nice
phew, I've drew a mecha a few months ago, but I don't know, It sucks X'D
I should draw more mechas and machines...and stop for a while with humans...

lol! I'm not really happy with how I draw mechas either. (I so suck when it comes to making them up from the top of my head!)
Yeah, same for me.

Oh my, this looks pixel-y neat.. Did you use a tablet?..

This character reminds me of Megaman Juno though.. XD

Thanks! ^^ Nope, just my mouse. =3
It feels weird using a tablet. I used mines once, and never used it again.

lol! XD Robo has legs, but I didn't draw them in.

Aaaaaaaaaah~! Giant Robo looks like that? Awesome~

Damn... I wish I could draw like that with a mouse. Ever since I got my tablet (which is defunct now) I haven't been able to color with the mouse anymore X'D Well, I can, but not as good as I used to... I love the work on this, it's so clean! Those little scratch-like shadin' on his hands are really good, minor details that add a lot!

This brings back a lot of memories of when we were on Patamon's Pad OekakiBBS! (I think that was it!)

Thankies, Melissa-chan~!

I just can't adapt to tablets. =/ Or it might be the crappy tablet I have.
I didn't want the hand to look plain so I kinda messed around and that's how the scratches come about. =3

Oh~ yeah! XDD Good times~! lol!
The board is completely gone, huh. It's been a long while since I last drew on an oekaki board.

Yikes, mouse *only*?!

I suck at mouse drawing. XP

Personally, I think the lower half looks a little plain compared to the top half, but it's still good.

...it looks Egyptian.

I the lower is kinda plain, but I intended to give it less detail because this is just a part of a full pic.
Yeah, not an attractive Robo design, giving it an Egyptian pharaoh head. XD; But it is based on a retro manga and live action TV series so it can't be helped.

Wow you did that on MS Paint?! O_O holy cow,it's fantastic! I would have thought this was a screenshot or something...

Yep! All pixel work on MSPaint.
Would have been nice if I tried at an oekaki board, but this is a very big pic.

I should have, but I was lazy. XD;;; I just worked with what I had and hoped that it'll look like a robot at least. XD;
Really? You did come across with your comment like you were really impressed, and I'm really grateful and happy for that. ^___^ Really. Thank you.
