This! This baby is from a whooping 50-year-old anime that I bet nobody remembers, since the original one, including this mecha, came out in 1972! Damn, that’s an old anime XD Of course I am talking about the grandfather of all mecha anime that came after, the one and only “Mazinger Z” series.
This badass is called “Boss Borot”, officially Boss Robot then. The color-palette as well as the design is really uniquely 70s, 80s style Japanese anime, the contrasting colors as well as the unusual look really brings back nostalgia, so it was really fun designing this whole thing (as well as challenging, because 1. I really don't do mechas at all 2. The pose had to be really linear, because it has to stand as a huge height and be really grounded and 3. You only got the 50-year-old anime to go on as reference, and the damn angles keep shifting and the proportions changing, so you got no idea how it actually looks like 100% XD had to go with my guts here).
The papercraft itself is a “lifesize” papercraft. Not really lifesize, since it’s probably 100 meters high in the anime, but it was unfolded to 2 meters! I could really go crazy with the details here, more than with the normal 20-30 cm unfolds, so loved that. Needless to say that, of course as ALL OF MY PAPERCRAFRS I SELL, I have modeled, posed, textured and unfolded it myself! 100% Antyyy, baby!
It’s going to be a HUUUGE thing, with many awesome details and a hella lot of work to do as well. Can’t wait to see this beast being done for the end of the year ceremony the commissioner has every time. Look forward to that and I’ll surely update the links when the preview is available.
