Deceitful Empress

"Deceitful Empress"
Mobile Suit Z Gundam / Commission/for Mobile Suit Breakdown

This was my final piece for 2019, but being a commission, I had to wait for them to publicly unveil it first. This is one they wanted me to keep my own personal stylings but using the villainous Haman Karn and her signature mobile suit, the AMX-004 Qubeley.
It took some work to get their poses to work with one another, especially with the Qubeley's unique geometry, but I think its perspective does its menacing presence justice.

"Peer-to-Peer"
(RX-178 Gundam Mk-II and MSZ-006-3 Zeta Gundam III / Commission)

This one was especially interesting, as I got to stylize two real-life people into a Gundam illustration. But, more noteworthy, I am probably the first person to draw the Zeta III in classic 1985 style. XD Everything from the lighting, the sky, scale and proportions, and even the time crunch was a challenge on this piece, but I loved every minute of it!
Commissioned by Tom Winnicki for his and Ashley J. Moore's 2-year anniversary together!
