The Armored Core Effect

Forum member J.E. Magog was busy creating these model images using an SLR camera, light painting, and a lot of creativity. The resulting images are nothing short of awesome.

Now THAT’S an ARMORED Core: “Black Rain”

UPDATE: Now with more pictures!

At least it’s good to know this bad boy’s the one gonna finish you off. This AC is so mean, it looks like a match for Kojima Core ACs. Heck, it even has missiles on its crotch! More pictures below.

LEGO Armored Core

We have a bit of a LEGO theme going on here. But here’s a nice change of pace: this one’s actually related to Armored Core.

Flickr user bermudafreze‘s photostream sports a couple of recent shots of three ACs (one quad, two bipeds) made from LEGO. They’re pretty detailed, and are mostly faithful to for Answer-era parts. See more after the jump.

Pure and Honest Rawk

Sorry J.E., but I’m sticking to being a fan of Mozy. I mean good lord, this guy (or girl) is the master of digitally painting ACs. You said it before: the movement, the depth and the drama is there. Not to mention some good old-fashioned brush techniques.

If you’ve never seen him/her paint, then you’re missing out on a LOT. That’s no understatement. Even if you’re not a hardcore Armored Core fan.

So as an act of public service and overall do-good-ing, here, a sample of the artist’s talent.

Hungry for more? If you want to do the rest of the stuff justice you’ll look at each one and watch how they come to be.

Mozy, if you’re reading this and don’t like being pimped, just shoot me a quick email and I’ll quickly turn this post into happy-land links instead. If you’re not or you do, then the world is a much better place.

Zzz…
