From the same publishing house ( Hera Publishing ) that bought us the excellent mecha art book Industrial Divinities 2017 IZMOJUKI, MZN is a colorful collection of mecha art work by Shinya Mizuno ミズノシンヤ, a Japanese illustrator/designer working actively in the anime, advertising and toy industry.

The artist’s strong background as a toy designer is clearly reflected in his mecha illustrations; many of his robotic creations look perfectly at home when imagined as a physical toy or highly detailed figure, complemented by his acute color sense and knack for attractive visual aesthetics. All these attributes come together nicely in his vibrantly colored mecha designs.

Shinya Mizuno’s richly colorful and blocky shaped mecha designs evoke a certain child-like & whimsical charm, a refreshing and playful take on the mecha genre usually driven by the “cool and hi-tech” aesthetic with smooth curves and sleek looks. I like this. This book is published in the same format and dimensions as Hera Publishing’s Industrial Divinities 2017 IZMOJUKI and will serve as an excellent companion displayed on a bookshelf.
