After being inspired by the likes of Nier: Automata and Pacific Rim, I wanted to try my own take on a larger-than-life sci-fi scene! I started by using a reference photo to paint the background, then began painting the important characters onward.
The scene relates to a moment during which giant mechs have landed in multiple areas around the world, and humanity's response to them. Whether the mechs are benevolent or malevolent towards us is ambiguous, and left up to the viewer's imagination. In the end I'm quite happy with how it turned out ^^
