r/Mecha

Hi everyone, I wanted to share that I'm creating my own mecha world for a series of fanzines. The story draws heavily on late 20th-century conflicts in South America and Southeast Asia.

Here's the creator's commentary, translated from Japanese:

>Wing Gundam Zero ・Cinderella, completed!

>I've boldly modified Wing Gundam Zero into a feminine form and built it as a machine equipped with funnels.

>Of course, it mixes MG and RG Gunpla, as well as Bandai's plastic model series like 30MF and 30MS.

>For Zero's signature wings, I've replaced the arms extending from the back with wing-shaped ones to pursue the wing motif even further. The auxiliary wings have been changed to arms that carry six feather funnels.

>I wanted to keep the "Gundam" essence, so I referenced Metal Build Exia and adjusted the parts to avoid making it too humanoid.

>Since it's a girl, the coloring is composed cutely in sky blue tones
By using a dark base coat for the white, I've ensured it doesn't look too light.

>Since Wing Gundam has a "Snow White" variation, I associated it with that and named it "Cinderella"ᐡ ̳ʚ̴̶̷̆ ·̫ ʚ̴̶̷̆ ̳ᐡ

Its finaly complet!!! After four months on an off tinkering with ideas, 4 different variations, an about 5 different kits that I used pieces from (all 30mm kits), im finaly happy with this one!!

Shall I introduce the only AC fighing for the Blue Arms Mercenary group....

Pilot name: Bruno

Callsign: ???

A Pilot that lives simply for the thrill an the sound of a good "BOOM".... his words....

He heard a crazy man by the name of Faux was given hell to all the heavy hitters in this little war, an doing it with ONLY a monster of a MT....Bruno naturally had to check it out.

Upon meeting the leader of the merc group, The Blue Arms, Bruno simply laughed an instantly challenged Faux, the leader to a "demonstration" for why he really fights.

With out hesitation Faux agreed... he knew this man would be an asset an he intended to find out more! It didnt take long for both to realize why the chose to accept this duel, they fought as if the world it self rested on its very outcome .... it lasted only a few minutes... but ended in draw with Fauxs energy blade sparking, stopping with in meters of the enormous tanks front tracks an Brunos dual bazookas arched over Fauxs shield ready to fire.... they both backed their machines away an both with one motion acknowledging the outcome of the fight!

Bruno decided that this was the group that would give him the glorious battlefields he forever craves.

The painted prototype of the Type 33 from my illustrated mecha book TANKHEAD on display at the Shizuoka Hobby Show this past weekend. This is the first in the lineup of TANKHEAD fully posable plastic model kits, and is currently being developed by Bellfine.

Was going for a relatively simple style, which 0079 MS obviously lend themselves to, but couldn't resist adding a tiny bit of surface detail
