>>23704887google search isn't always good at finding stuff these days. The algorithm leads to AI slop. Usually people on /m/ are more in the know since some of them are privy to obscure Japanese materials.
Banrise corpo meddling ruined his work on Gqux.
>>23704885AC is a Kawamori franchise.
>>23705039Don't excuse your laziness.
>>23704815
>>23705141am I supposed to prefer one over the other?
>>23705141While I think I prefer the concept design the 'default pose' actively does a disservice to the final design.When posed correctly a lot more of it's appeal shines through.
>>23705440>appealEvery time I see this design, it looks like the suit is in pain, like it's saying "kill me". Horrific and grotesque.
>>23705443I see it as having a lean athletic look to it, not as strong and stable as the original (and it's updates), but only really having the emaciated zombie impression in the default pose.He does kinda have a pained expression on his face though...
>>23705443It looks like a grandpa (which technically it is)
>>23705157Only the first three gens. From 4th gen onwards he only gets like 1 design per game
>>23705351Would
>>23705532Yes?
>>23705157People other than Kawamori have worked on it you know.
>>23705443>>23705440I think the real issue with these designs is they're too complex and detailed for an anime with the type of art direction GQX had.If GQX had a more realistic rendering style like Macross Zero/Frontier/Delta the designs probably would've looked fine. Whenever I see these designs in gunpla figure form they're much easier to read because the real world has much more complex lighting, the forms are especially clearer after a modeler has done work on them.The GQX concept art was a lot cleaner though and would've worked well for anime with this style.>>23705141
I saw a jap custom of the Gqux grandpa that had its chin painted red and it improved the design 1000%
>>23705443It always screams "construction robot" to me
>>23706217The other direction they could've gone with GQuuuuuuX is to just tone down the detail and animate everything in 2D.
>>23705443That's the appeal to me! It's literally me!
>>23706230This would be 100 times better as a design but it's not distinctive at all like the final uggo is
>>23705440The head is just plain bad. No two ways around it. The body could be salvaged by toning down the "realistic" artstation style of it, like removing the impact bars, the yellow/black stripes and the nonsensical hard points.
>>23705351MechaBoobies?!?
Behold, his nu-Gundam. Aside from that, I see a lot of tiddies on danbooru.
>>23706273>late 80sWAY ahead of its time
>>23706273>>23706278I don't know the proper language to describe the design but the overall shape language, especially the way the white armor panels are shaped, is something that feels more native to the mecha designs of the 00s and even 10s.Yamashita pulls a lot of design elements from submarines and other military equipment, these Gundam designs feel like they have hints of sports car influence.
>>23704815He did concept art for Shin Kamen Rider
>>23705141>Banrise gets JNTHED>wastes his talents on the most generic special snowflake mecha imaginable>Banrise gets Yamashita>wastes most of his talents on some of the ugliest designs yet imaginableFuck Banrise.
>>23705141I realized why I hate these two so much nowIt's the chestpieces, they look like pure construction latticework, and it's probably intended to evoke that since it leans more into the "prototype" aspect but it goes way too hard into it and just looks stupidThe concept art also has that effect where it looks like it's missing a couple of pieces of armor plating and final touches but it still looks like a proper machine instead of half eva half hardhats
>>23706324I hope they get shinkawa.
>>23706326I thought it was neat, the GQX Gelgoog addressing those issues by being more uniformly armored creates a nice sense of advancement and continuity between the two.
>>23706341Man GQuuuuuuX is really just an animated MSV isn't it
>>23706298>these Gundam designs feel like they have hints of sports car influence.They're like bikes. You can't ever go wrong with designing with inspiration from motorcycles. It's always the hottest shit possible.
>>23705351Spoiler that!Else Ryusei sees this and will go bananas.But it's undeniable that she's a beauty.
>>23706230>>23705440>>23705141>>23704815>>23706273Retroactively, would this mean the Yamashita's Nu also becomes the design for a theoretical GQuuuuuuX successor unit called "Black Gundam"
>>23706673They put Yamashita's Sazabi in the show, so the implication is that his Nu Gundam would be there too.
>>23706704>gMS-v
>>23706225did you see the Guntank crane refitI hope they make gunpla out of that, I'd buy the shit out of that and the standard Guntank from GQuuuuuX
>>23706367I haven't played all of the AC games yet, going through the PS1 ones at the moment, but I can't help but ask.Is this Nineball?
>>23706906What are you, a Newtype? You're pretty close enough for a wild guess. It's FromSoftware's Murakumo (Xbox) Cloud Breaker 01
>>23705141They went directly with the cheap Karah crap CG, fuck off.
I finally got around to building the HG GQuuuuuuX I had in my backlog and my opinion of the design has flipped 180.The anime did not sell me on it at all, but the model kit is really fun to handle. I'm gonna customize it though, could use better colors.
