Incidentally, the Jotun/Mashina don’t eat food. Even though they are more like elemental mecha, it would still be the equivalent of opening the lid to the side of your CPU and resting a hot chilli dog right on top of the motherboard: ie certain DEATH. So the fact Lyron has unconsciously crunched some candy is sort of a sign of things to come.

Page 40: the bottom panel is a building x-ray scan. Jet finds Lyron because he is unscannable.
Jet The White design: Probably the plainest design of all my Mashina characters. Except for his wings, there’s not much to his thin transforming body other then his curse lines. Jet was origionaly a parody of a Macross Veritech that went through many revisions to eliminate any semblance of Macross from him and his name is a combination of “Blue Jet” from Machine Robo and “Slust the Red” from Ogre Battle: The March Of The Black Queen. All of my transforming mecha have very simple 2 or 3 step transformations to make them easier to illustrate in comic format. If I made something as complicated as GaoGaiGar then it would take 10 pages each book just to emphasize that – and I didn’t wanna go that route!
yeesh.. a little busy on this page. Hope y’all forgive, I’m trying to cut through the script as fast as I can…
more squibb for a few panels.
Lyron is sort of wandering around town and thinks that everyone in it are angels. Its likely that Hresvalgr told Lyron what his mission was in Yggdrassil, But failed to elaborate on the details. Hes a big lumbering obstacle talking at the sargons like an american in france asking for the bathroom. Jet the White is on his way…
More Jet the White, hed’ be my 4rth transforming charecter introduced in the story thus far. Jet, beo, Ennie both look like planes and Rendivi is a sword(shown later). Its sort of interesting to compare to transformers who are “actual” vehicles as a pose to Jotun/mashina who simply fold in on themselves like a turtle hides its head n leggs in the biologicle fashion. Essentialy, they all stuff their heads into their chests, fold their arms around under themselves, and disjoint their leggs tight against their bodies.
I would be lying if i said I wouldnt like to see a real mecha artist clean up thes desighns for like, an anime or something. But Ill just have to make due with my own style.
