Edit: If you made specs for it the wings could also be like funnels, DRAGOONS, Bits, or Wing Funnels
I had considered making them Funnels, but I'd have to call them Aerods to keep with the Xenogears theme.

Finally got around to coloring this creation which I actually assembled before I started on the Partisan.

Kensai with sword and mace:

Not sure if I want the sword to be more (maybe a Vibrosword or a Heat Sword) but the mace is definately just a good ol' bludgeoning Mace.

The Kensai exists in the same fanfic-verse that will never be written as the Partisan.

However i'm absolutly in love wit hthe rest of the design.

I think you're right. That head bugs me too.

I took care of my headgear troubles and gave the Kensai a new weapon and bigger wings while I was at it.

The version with the old head gets to be the one used by the gruntiest of the grunts.

Draco, this is newest member ZGMF-X28A Nu-Liberty speaking. I saw your MS color friendly pictures, and I am very impressed. However, I do have a request for two more color friendly pictures: the Blitz Gundam and the Freedom Gundam. If you would be able to accommodate my request, it would be very appreciated. Thanks. VILLAINS RULE!

Here's a Freedom, but I'm unable to do Blitz at this time.

Made another color page for my own use, but you can use it too!

I used it to make a Custom GuAIZ: the GuAIZ-D.

Here's a roughly colored version of my latest MS, the Gelgoog Manifest. First person to guess what it's supposed to be gets a Draco Point. The colors may change to fit their predecessor.

Also, if you have the link to my DeviantArt gallery, feel free to pop over there and check out the new variety of "Red vs. Blue"-based Master Chief Gundams I've posted there.

The Manifest Destiny Gelgoog, a new ZAFT suit using the Destiny Silhouette and the Legend Gundam's beam rifle? And it has beam shields, too.

Or, to keep with how the names of ZAFT's suits are acronyms, Manifest Destiny GELGOOG.

And those RvB ones are pretty good.

I've decided it is simply the Gelgoog Manifest. The Destiny part is implied. Also, the in-universe name, I've decided, comes from the suit's designer, Geldivus Googendine, instead of being an acronym like ZAKU and GOUF.

Nice touch on the horse, using the head of the Kerberos Hound.

I had included the "Destiny" part in my guess because I thought that the Gelgoog could use Silhouettes.

Ah. No, I had planned on the Gelgoog having the Destiny Silhouette parts be a permanent fixture, like the parts on the Destiny Gundam. It doesn't get standard Anti-Ship Swords because I don't find them to be as practical in MS combat by the time Beam Sabers and Axes and the like are a common weapon on MS. It gets the uber-hawt Twin Beam Swords instead, though it could carry Anti-Ship Swords in their place if need be.

As if having a headless Gundam wasn't enough for Halloween, here's a Mecha Kaiju.

This mech definitly looks like it'll belong in Turn A Gundam, but the design looks like it came straight out of Dunbine.

Here's a new mech that was requested of me by my friend Cherry.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v190/ ... frame2.gif

It's the semi-finished version of my new Dread Frame Astray. The finished version, which will go on my site after Halloween and maybe in my DevArt gallery tonight, is a little more cleaned-up.

I've added the finished version of the Dread Frame to my site as well as another custom MS based on a television/movie character. I also added some sprite sheets if anyone's interested in SD mecha sprites.
