ITT: Golden Mecha
>>22945929
What are the tactical advantages of your mech being golden?
Hot take: The Akatsuki is a much better suit than Hyaku Shiki, and it's not even close
>>22946016Because you should always invest in gold.
>>22946121Cold Take: You're an idiot.
>>22946016For the Hyaku-shiki it was anti-beam coating.
>>22946144Hudd Durr. You have to be 18+ to post here, child.
>>22945929i got me this OC design here
>>22946016It blinds the fuck out of your enemies. Plus it looks cool (if done right)
>>22947075>Plus it looks cool (if done right)What are the examples of it being done right and wrong?
>>22947073One of the best ending theme songs ever.
I love golden mecha but the problem is any toy will end up being very expensive or they just use piss yellow plastic.
>>22945929Lachesis wanted gold and she got it.
UNICORN GUNDAM 03 PHENEX (NARRATIVE Ver.)
>>22953575is this a new variant or a custom? Don't think I've ever seen Gold Frame without its big claw, fedora and bat wings
>>22946016To flex your wealth at your broke-ass enemies
>>22957782That's what it originally looked like when it escaped Heliopolis. The bazooka is a weapon stolen from the EA's G-Project equipment stash, it was originally meant for the Duel Gundam but Yzak didn't have it when he stole it.
I guess it's debatable whether this guy is supposed to be gold or just yellow, but his official Kaiyodo model kit does say to paint him gold.
>>22957986There's a difference between gold and yellow?
>>22958005Comes down to whether it has a metallic texture or not, I suppose.
>>22950582How expensive are we talking here, actual gold?
>>22958395Price of gold ($86.01 per gram)+labor and craftsmanship + insurance (for gold item, yes you need this)= final price
>>22950582You know how shit the economy are when silver Delta Gundam is more expensive than golden Delta Gundam
>>22966004It looks so ugly in that turdy Indian curry color. Cant believe the original color scheme was doing so much heavy lifting design wise. It looks so bland and generic without it.

>>22957796This>yeah I coated my mech in a metal too soft and heavy to ever be useful as armor, unlike you who couldn't, poorfag

>>23008141Hang on, was the suit meant to be golden in the show or just yellow?
>>23009051Meant to be golden in the series.
>>23009051The setting is golden, and the animation appears yellow, possibly due to budget constraints and a simplified color palette.
>>22946019I pity the bastard that has to fight that bitch without sunglasses.
Here's to a happy golden new year.
