Re: Dark Duel's Shop-Fu and assorted artsy stuff

Okay, so a while back I did a custom based on the Star Burning Gundam with a few Shining Gundam and Build Burning Gundam bits, which I'd called the GF15-001NJ Burning Gundam.

Ever since Breaker Battlogue, I've been wanting to do something similar with the Blazing Gundam, modifying it with some bits from - well, not God Gundam this time, but I did want to tweak it with some Build Burning and Try Burning parts.
That is now done, and I'm calling it the GF15-001NJII Blazing Gundam. Well, almost. I still haven't figured out what I want to do with it backpack-wise.

Very nice. I wonder what the Neo-Japan Gundam would look like during the 14th Gundam Fight? Maybe the God Gundam slightly modified visually or something like that. Not the first time the same Gundam would be used for different Gundam Fights.

Way I envisioned it, Domon reused the God Gundam during the 14th Fight - and won again, as indicated in the model number of the two customs. The Neo-Japan government decides on its own to develop a new Gundam between the 14th and 15th fights. I don't have too many details fleshed out, but I imagined that Domon would decline to return for the 15th Fight due to personal reasons, and a new Fighter is then selected for the new Gundam in the 15th Fight.

No indeed - IIRC, Gentle Chapman used the same Gundam for three consecutive Gundam Fights, and I suppose Master Asia counts as well, having *technically* used Kowloon Gundam in both the 12th and 13th Fights(Though the second time around it was Master Gundam imitating Kowloon Gundam's appearance, at least at first).

A while back, I read somewhere a comment that compared the Aerial Rebuild to the GP01Fb from 0083. That inspired this recolor, which I started working on at the time and only just got around to finishing this weekend.

I ended up also doing a GP01-inspired color scheme on the original Aerial as well, but IMO Aerial doesn't wear those colors nearly as well as its successor does.

Dark Duel, the second link takes you back to this page. Other than that I do like this recolor.

Huh. Your right looks better on Rebuild then the original Aerial.
