Ode to the old schoolby *Ryuuhiken

Scraps

Well seeing as most of the new anime and movies that have been coming out are mostly boring. I decided to go take a look at an old (very) school mecha anime/manga "Dragon's Heaven". While the series was very low-key and had a small reception I always remembered seeing a design from the show time to time thinking "Thats pretty cool". After coming across a mecha site called "MAHQ" I found out where it was from.
Dragon's Heaven was a manga created by known Gundam mechanical designer "Makoto Kobayashi". All of the designs were very organic while retaining a mechanical feel, which is something I like to see from time to time. While the OAV I watched was unsubbed, and feeling its age (1988 lol...) I still enjoyed it. So heres to the old school "Here here"

(soda so sue me xD) BTW its drawn completely in pen, and is not a design from the show, however I did have some fun trying to get into the design style,feel free to comment.

P.S. Yes it has four arms
