I like it.
I really love any alternate redesigns of Gundam in general.

Ehh, not digging the exposed torso, and the ridged armor seems unnecessarily aesthetic.

I can't unsee it as having a dumb smirk on its face, but I guess that was unintentional.

>>14352175
The crotch and part of the upper torso are about the only things I can recognize as "Gundam".

I'dve expected better from the man who gave us Construction Suspension Order.

That's Gorilla Bot to you, youngin'!

Is that ZARDOZ

THE GUNDAM IS GOOD

THE ZEEKS ARE EVIL

The Char in that manga was fucking stylin' too bad we never got a front view of him

AMUROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Why even call it "Gundam" when you just drew a mechagorilla and slapped that feddie arrow on its crotch
It is a pretty good looking gorilla, though.

>>14352175
It looks crap.

I'm so fucking bored of redesigned Gundams. It's like Sonic; it's almost impossible to redesign well. The original is about as good as it gets. I think it's just that the series had made its point over and over again so many fucking times that the series has nowhere to go, and now all the people that grew up with it are like "I've done a redesign! Now it can be important again!"

>>14352192
This was the best redesign and people were too dumb to understand the point of it.

>>14352461
>the point of it.

"highly automatized space PT boat that accidentally looks humanoid"

>>14352175
Looks good, just not a Gundam.

>>14352192
This is stupid and looks really bad.

>>14352175
Looks like a goddamned Wels from Xenogears

He really was and yeah it is a shame.

>>14352175
That's not a Gundam, it looks like a cross between an Eva and a Vital Suit

Cod piece was the part that he felt was iconic and worth recycling?

That's clearly a Z'Gok E

>>14354726
It's where the reentry condom goes, the codpiece stays.

>>14354713

it looks like one of those hot springs monkeys

>>14354742
Where are the vulcans and the beamsabers? Does it still have a corefighter?

>>14354726
More like "oh shit I fell asleep drawing Gundam and now it looks like a mess, I have to turn this in for work tomorrow, better ass something from Gundam quickly without it looking obvious".

>>14354761
But codpieces by their nature are obvious.

They are literally open declarations for passers by to observe one's junk in a pouch.

>>14354742
The thing that they never use on any other Gundam after the first one.

>>14354777
Without looking obviously tacked on. That's the beauty of something so obvious - it takes away from the fact that he probably slapped it on last second. If you saw a man walking around wearing a codpiece over his clothes, would you think he grabbed as he walked out the door or would you think it's deliberate?

Otomo "The Master" Katsuhiro is an expert at deception and misdirection.

>>14354703
This is dead sexy and actually recognizable as a Zaku, unlike his RX-78. I love the continuous line contour of the arms.

>>14354703
The arms are purely cosmetic?

>>14355705
they're made for slappin'
