LANCER Mech Sprites

• SPITE added!
  January 01, 2024 by Blobertson

  1

  Tried to draw the Seeder but whoops, I was drawing the SPITE the whole time. One of the my favorite NPCs, the tree that Hates... Continue reading

  
• ENGINEER added!
  December 17, 2023 by Blobertson

  1

  Wild how a smidgeon of financial security lets those creative juices start flowing again! I drew this Engineer in no time flat compared to my last sprite, and stole the GMS Turrets I drew for Everest-... Continue reading

  
• GOLIATH added!
  February 12, 2023 by Blobertson

  I've had an extremely busy last few months, but I've been plinking away at this beefcake, my first 88x88 lancer sprite done completely from scratch! I had so much fun with the Power Knuckle and Crushi... Continue reading

  
• AEGIS added!
  June 30, 2022 by Blobertson

  2

  Introducing the Aegis, a plodding shield generator mech which I, personally, hate with a passion because I keep playing mech builds that critfish, and Aegis just flatly disables those. I'm super pleas... Continue reading

  
• HORNET added!
  April 01, 2022 by Blobertson

  1

  Here's the HORNET, my first new NPC sprite since my break! I did my best to come up with a design that reflects just how obnoxious these are to fight, but I'm no longer sure that's even possible... Continue reading

  
• SSC ORCHIS added to the PC pack!
  March 27, 2022 by Blobertson

  I was really expecting the Orchis to be the more challenging between the two new KTB alt frames, but boy was I wrong! While the Calendula is probably gonna see some additional tweaking between now and... Continue reading

  
• HORUS CALENDULA added to the PC pack!
  March 25, 2022 by Blobertson

  Wow, it's been a while! It's been a long struggle trying to re-establish a creative process after dealing with a few personally traumatic events in the middle of several global ongoing traumatic event... Continue reading

  
• SENTINEL added!
  March 30, 2021 by Blobertson

  1

  Between the Tortuga, the Caliban, and the Breacher, I've already done a bunch of Lancer mechs whose schtick is having a big shotgun. Only one of them has a signature ability called "Eye of Midnight,"... Continue reading

  
• SPECTER added!
  March 25, 2021 by Blobertson

  Getting this pose right for the SPECTER was a really fun challenge! I wanted to make it very humanoid to contrast with the ASSASSIN, but of course I still needed it to convey stealthy predator energy... Continue reading

  
• ASSASSIN added!
  March 19, 2021 by Blobertson

  The ASSASSIN and the SPECTER are pretty similar thematically, and I was really unsure how I was going to make them really visually distinct, but luckily I had a brainwave about it yesterday. The silho... Continue reading

  
• GMS SAGARMATHA added to the PC pack!
  March 17, 2021 by Blobertson

  1

  To celebrate the release of Wallflower Part 1, I decided to round out new players' LL0 selections to include the GMS Sagarmatha, an older, more heavily armored model compared to the smaller and higher... Continue reading

  
• BARRICADE added!
  March 13, 2021 by Blobertson

  The BARRICADE asked me the question, "How will you draw a mech that looks like it can extrude a chunk of hard material larger than itself on demand," and I think I nailed it. Also, this marks the half... Continue reading

  
• ACE added!
  March 10, 2021 by Blobertson

  The Ace was a real challenge to fit into a square while still getting all the detail that I wanted, but I'm really pleased with the way it turned out. Armored Core's CLR-00-MAK, Gundam Wing's OZ-07AMS... Continue reading

  
• MIRAGE added!
  March 09, 2021 by Blobertson

  Holy hell, I don't remember the last time I banged out two sprites back to back this quickly! Had an absolute blast with this one, even though I expected designing the Mirage to be pretty tricky, give... Continue reading

  
• BASTION added!
  March 09, 2021 by Blobertson

  Drew some valuable inspiration from Conner Fawcett's Lancer artwork, and I'm pretty sure I have his unbelievably charming mech designs to thank for how well this Bastion turned out. I think it's one o... Continue reading

  
• SCOUT added!
  February 16, 2021 by Blobertson

  If and when Disney serves me a DMCA takedown for selling this sprite, then and only then will I concede that my SCOUT design is basically just an imperial probe droid. I love this cheeky little fucker... Continue reading

  
• OPERATOR added!
  February 03, 2021 by Blobertson

  I've been saving the OPERATOR for a while because I knew it was gonna be quick and fun- it's a cutting edge machine even by Lancer standards, and I've known for ages that its infamous Raptor plasma ri... Continue reading

  
• HA ENKIDU added to the PC pack!
  January 21, 2021 by Blobertson

  I'm really excited to add a new sprite to the PC mech pack! The Enkidu is an alt frame on the Tokugawa license that will be released with Wallflower- it's a vicious, bestial prototype that specializes... Continue reading

  
• PRIEST added!
  December 02, 2020 by Blobertson

  This was a tricky one! Had to take a few cracks at it, but I'm pretty pleased with how the Priest turned out. I'm thinking about doing the Operator next, but let me know if y'all have any other reques... Continue reading

  
• CATAPHRACT added!
  October 26, 2020 by Blobertson

  I feel like I say this with every sprite, but this one was fun as hell! Maybe eventually I'll get down the roster and find ones that just aren't interesting to me, but the CATAPHRACT? A fast mech with... Continue reading

  
• DEMOLISHER added!
  October 16, 2020 by Blobertson

  The Demolisher was my first scratch mech sprite at 66x66, and it was really fun having the extra detail to work with! I hope you folks enjoy this chonker!... Continue reading

  
• RAINMAKER added!
  October 10, 2020 by Blobertson

  1

  Moving during a pandemic makes it hard to find time to draw new sprites, but things are settling down a little and I'm happy to introduce the RAINMAKER, which it says right here in the book is a crab... Continue reading

  
• IPS-N KIDD added to the PC pack!
  August 16, 2020 by Blobertson

  This offshoot of the classic Lancaster will, I believe, also debut when Wallflower gets published, but for now you can grab it on Lancer's itch page. Drawing the crew of FORGE droids hangin' out on th... Continue reading

  
• BERSERKER added!
  August 04, 2020 by Blobertson

  2

  I had a ton of fun making the BERSERKER as menacing as possible, which obviously meant shamelessly ripping off evangelion. Probably gonna do Rainmaker next?... Continue reading

  
• ARCHER added!
  August 03, 2020 by Blobertson

  The ARCHER is added! Since it's such a straightforward gun platform I wanted to give it a pretty simple design and I'm very happy with how it came out. Next up is the Berserker!... Continue reading

  
• WRECKs S1 and S2 added to the NPC pack!
  July 30, 2020 by Blobertson

  2

  I've just added tokens to the NPC pack for GMs to use to denote destroyed mechs! I'll get around to drawing a size 3 version eventually, but those should be relatively rare, so for now we can simply s... Continue reading

  
• SSC EMPEROR added to the PC pack!
  May 24, 2020 by Blobertson

  2

  The SSC Emperor hasn't seen print yet, but all the pilots on the Lancer discord are abuzz about this new hangar queen! It'll get added to the player mech lineup with the release of the Wallflower camp... Continue reading

  
• EVERESTs SP-1, SP-2, and SP-3 added to the PC pack!
  May 22, 2020 by Blobertson

  3

  I've had a couple requests for an Everest sprite, so I took a brief break from working on NPC mechs to make a couple GMS Everest configurations, inspired by RetrogradeMinis' recent contribution to COM... Continue reading

  
• HIVE added!
  May 10, 2020 by Blobertson

  1

  Had a lot of fun with this one, way easier than the bombard! Next up is the Archer, probably followed by the Rainmaker... Continue reading

  
• BOMBARD added!
  May 04, 2020 by Blobertson

  1

  Finished the Bombard, this was a tough one! Next up are the Hive and the Archer, haven't decided which one I'll do first... Continue reading
