Thanks for the update. Combine? You mea...Bradford,<br /><br />Thanks for the update. Combine? You mean something like the Power rangers? That's an awfully cool idea! <br /><br />I get your point. It's a story not an encyclopedia so there's no need to introduce all the mechas at once.<br /><br />I really enjoy when you share your stories and outline. It's helping me crystallize much more clearly my own mecha story. It's also very interesting to see your influences. These give your story of the Gate a lot of depth and coherence that's captures the imagination even if some elements don't appeal to me. I still look forward as to how the story will unfold.<br /><br /><br />As for me, reading your story has given me the confidence to use my influences to take the not Gundam in a different direction. I hope that the story will be as entertaining and enjoyable as yours. And the fun thing is that I'm not writing it in English to give myself an additional challenge.<br /><br />Thanks again for the inspiration and the indirect push to capture enjoyment in storytelling.<br /><br />xavier Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-695527399731010011.post-10760945205712972442018-07-11T23:18:51.427-05:002018-07-11T23:18:51.427-05:00Some mecha will be transformable.

This book will have humanoid and GERWALK mecha, but that's as far as I go. Got to introduce this sort of thing in digestible chunks.Bradford C.

I'm looking forward to the concept art!<br /><br />My mechas are bipedal humanoid type that can fly in space and in a planet. <br />I have difficulty visualizing the mechanics and esthetics of a transformable robot plane. So I'll keep it simple.<br /><br />I still want to see your take :)<br /><br />xavierAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-695527399731010011.post-34472724422104945572018-07-11T19:46:02.807-05:002018-07-11T19:46:02.807-05:00Video references:
