2heroic.

Did ya'all forget that the Blitz is literally *teleports behind you, unsheathes katana* kind of unit? Only hurdle is that its pilot's personality is the complete opposite.

OG colors is about as close to low-observability as a designer can get away with in the toyline. Shit, it even gets actual katanas in its factory production version.

The color scheme for that one is even worse than the original by miles, though.
>>
>>14056679
This is a greyish matte black and a dark subdued red.
It's different from the unpleasant glossy black and bright red the Blitz has.
>>
The impulse
>>
>>14056681
It would be better with G3-like colours, dark grey and desaturated blue.
>>
>>14056679
Most of the time Big O comes off as more blue or purple due to how it reflects light
>>
>>14056582
That's strangely reminiscing of Legilis for some reason

They're missiles. Anyway, contribootan'. I'm glad they changed the colors on the later Gespies, the original MKII's shade made it look like a cheap toy.

You mean shit tier pilot, right?

Blitz itself was cool. Well, aside from shit stock wepons.
>>
>>14056434
Black and red is one of the most aesthetically pleasing color duos. Of course it's seen as edgy but that doesn't change the facts.
>>
>>14057161

Agreed.

Black was sexy as fuck, but suddenly FUKKEN ULTRAMARINE?
SRW logic is weird.

CE in general was really terrible about finding the right shades of red. Case in point, that awful almost-magenta shade that's used on the Strike and Justice.

That thing has far too much white to be an example of black and red working well together.

Purple/blue if fine, sexy even when done right.

It's the blended bits on the funnels that get me. It looks so out of place on a gundam which you would normally think of as a solid primary colours type of machine.

>>14059385

There is such a thing as too much red Mejing.

Just a few more color changes and that really would have been in proper Wing colors. The shield should be red and the upper chestplate should be white.

I disagree. Masurao had the better color scheme by far.

>>14061191
If they wanted to make it in regular Wing colors, they would have.

>>14060620
When there's missiles or beam cannons, that tiny shield ain't worth it. Effective for close range, but that should be the last resort in a mobile suit.

I know it's P-Bandai. Look at the original file name. It got a little mangled due to posting from my phone but the name's right there. And I don't mind the colors, I think they're pretty slick.
