Another of my coproduction works.
This mechanical design is dubbed as a Yakuza type "Shinobi" mecha. The original Yakuza models are Legion machines designed after a Ninja Clan aesthetic. The standard models are less decorative, sleek body shapes with minimal joint exposure and no detailing marks. Another condition for the design was covered joints, so to keep with the ninja costume art style.
The Shinobi Kai (or Shinobi Custom) is a machine that stands for its rank as clan leader. As such the armor is more decorative due to its status.
The fan blades mounted on the end of each arm serve in a wide range of purposes from combat to evasion. The scarf is also a personal touch for its user.

This mecha believe it or not was based on one of the bonus costumes from the first Ninja Gaiden from the X-box. If you know the game then you'll recognize the windmill shirukens on the arms.
