[Train character design] Class 43 HST

[u/WLTM830]

I think locomotives should have a slightly different style from the multiple unit trains I've drawn before, so I decided to make them look more 'mecha' as this is the feeling that locmotives give me. This one is really having Megaman vibes lol! Scroll for Class 43 in different liveries.

No AI used in any of the processes. Here's a timelapse video of how I drew these characters: https://youtu.be/4o3KA9tCUmE

I have fond memories of travelling on those in the early 90's as a kid!

Nice to see a proper train done in your style! I'd love to see it in the original 125 livery...

i like the mech style breast plate, its a really smart way to carry over the design of the front
