I definitely put quite a bit of extra love into this one, mostly cause it just combines a couple of my favorite things. Colette and Mecha designs, with another new favorite thing, being asked to do so for money. Thank you very much, patron DisgruntledLungfish for this one. Kinda when I saw it in the list, I was like "yeah... I'm gonna wanna do that aren't I?"

Anyway, I'm glad they liked the result! And here's a little scene Lungfish wrote up after the drawing was finished that can go with it:

"Experimental results: Neural interface trial #3

Pilot shows improvement, but is still prone to unresponsiveness/loss of complex functions after prolonged exposure to neural connection and stimuli. Combat simulations resulted in an average effectiveness of 64%, with performance peaking in the first ten minutes then rapidly dropping as Pilot experienced these side effects.

Pilot has been observed referring to herself in plural pronouns (we, us) and despite visible discomfort expressed extreme reluctance to termination of neural connection. Physical restraints prevented harm to Pilot/technical personnel.

Prototype interface suit has noticeably improved neural synchronization. Continued development recommended.

Pilot comments: "Can someone please get me an aspirin. I don't know if you've ever had your mind stretched out into a robot but it's a real kick in the head.""
