Laevatein - Howitzer Mode WIP

Al fin!

Esta pieza me ha tomado toda la tarde, y aún no he terminado con ella puesto que pienso colorearla. Quizas este sea el primer fanart que hago, ya que los demás diseños han sido originales y sólo comparten el nombre de Gundam. En todo caso, debo decir que he quedado satisfecho de momento (aunque habrá que esperar a ver cómo sále el coloreado).

The mecha in question is Laevatein, a 4th? generation arm slave from the novel Full Metal Panic! Since there is virtually no artwork for this machine, I had to base myself upon some really bad official sketchs, especially for the design of the Howitzer mode.
The main reason I did this piece was because of its awesomeness. Also, I liked the idea of an Arm Slave carrying a non-AS weapon, a.k.a. the Demolition Gun, given that the Lambda Driver (mysterious engine that gives the mecha heightened abilities) must be active in order to use in in Howitzer mode. Overall, its design also impressed me a lot, since it manages to cram a lot of detail in it, while maintaining its aesthetical value and making it look even stronger.
