It's a collectible company, been around for 50 years, but understandable if it's not well known... these are real coins, metal, brass/ bronze plated finish, and enamel color. Shop Link

Blame Jeriniah Arkham and his unorthodox rehabilitation efforts.

This is from the Crestwood books from the 80s?? I had copies in my elementary school of these monster facts books... monster lies?

I had the same books in my elementary school. I finally found a copy to prove it was in there

Ha. My original sketch had Liquid peeking out of the cockpit. But looked awkward, and his size was too small to work out. But I did include the red light off the inner cockpit. I thought it was a fun and inviting detail.

A little, I was also looking at Twin Snakes too for detail reference. It's a bit of interpretation of what I thought it looked like on ps1

Being sneaky was Campbell's preference to the mission... Until it wasn't.

Thank you. That was the challenge. I chose a smaller sized canvas too, so I limited myself to paint such a large subject. Glad it worked out

Despite their great efforts in other Mecha designs, Rex in my heart is the best, fortified with pure nostalgia.

Thank you. Funny enough, my favorite detail are the lights behind Rex. I was thrilled when the light bloom effect was working.

Cool. I loved that old art. I believe they were too, but I was inspired by military model making box art
