so here we see how umberlee's has evolved trough the years starting in 2013 to 2019. in 2013 I painted a machine named metal gear shark that was heavily based on metal gear ray. and together with my metal gear Godzilla, metal gear snake. and with metal gear dragons would my army control world domination that was why I draw that design.. but then in 2015 I redesigned it and it was now metal gear shark V2 this one had more female detail then previous one as I decided to experiment further with the design..however it was soon pointed out by the people that they seemed to like the sexualised metal gear shark. one of this people made a image where several colored clones of this shark and one of the clones paint scheme was named "sea goddess Umberlee" and I accepted that name but not color scheme. so later that same year I made Umberlee..Mk3 that went with great successes so the called umberlee MK2 was now presented as royal body guard for lord doomfonds army as the umberlee clone army no actual planes on feature this army has been made..

Umberlee MK3 was now presented as one of a kind machine with lord doomfonds, knights and X DNA. with serious powers of telekinesis to help her with the facts she has no arms..and she can change her size at anytime she wants or have enough power to do so. and she had some combat skills just as X. but her design had become to difficult to make as I only made two pictures of her so I made plans to change her design manly her fin arms and feet to a much easier design to draw but it got delayed and delayed and forgotten until I got a proposed story where umberlee was going to be in so we talked and then I was reminded about Umberlees re-design and I was like hell yes let's do it and Umberlee MK4 was born the one you see now.. so the new umberlee is more of a living being as her armor is no longer a part of her they can be put on and off her just like a body armor and her former head is now a visor/helmet she wear. that is the biggest difference between Mk3 and MK4 as I wanted to keep her original look alive and I think I did a great job in doing so and also she is now a full character in my universe that I can paint more easily and commission others to draw as well.

but is this her final design? no I can always change her if I fell I need to but right now I don't think she need any more changes she is perfect..
