>MC Gundams are always predominantly clown colors or blue-on-white.
>never the superior green-on-white.
Why is this?
>>14559161
To sell toys, of course.
Green is the favored color of Zeon
>>14559161
Because that looks like shit, and a zeon unit
Bullshit. I challenge you to find a single Gundam with this colour scheme.
>>14559161
Because, Muhammed, colors are not as evil as your shithole religion says they are. Go behead yourself.
>>14559161
Because your tastes a shit.
>>14559255
>>14559161
Because the first Gundam was red yellow and blue, these became a series tradition, like having a Char clone.

You want a much lighter green to play with white, but even that is shit compared to a light orange or blue.

Gundam Fenice is Green on tan-white.

I'll take mostly white with some green/gold etc. for highlighting and grey on the innards personally.
Wait are people seriously implying the standard red/blue/yellow color scheme is actually any good from a graphic design standpoint? I understand liking it because of nostalgia but if it weren't for its iconic status, no one would dare try and get away with that color scheme in 2016.
Green/white isn't perfect, but dominate mono-color+white will trump any color scheme that tries to pass off the 3 primary colors as anything but an eyesore.
Why is there no entirely white Gundam?
Don't gimme that bullshit about the RX-78 that was mostly white. It had a bunch of grey parts and it never showed up in anything animated.
>>14559559
How about white and blue with red and yellow details? I can't think of a better schrme for the Victory, someone feel free to prove me wrong.
>>14559576
Can't argue with that, its perfect.
>>14559573
>Why is there no entirely white Gundam?
Uhhhhhh... hello?
Monochrome (the range of white to grays to black) with small color accents is best.
(I nearly came the first time I saw the Nu's color scheme.)
>>14559706
Agreed.

The VF-1 looks better in tan for fighter and gerwalk mode. Battroid mode looks better with a more heroic scheme like Max's blue or Roy and Hikaru's Skull Squad colors.
I've grown accustomed to the RX-78's white-blue-red-yellow colors, but objectively speaking it's almost unforgivably garish.
As long as you stay away from rainbow coloring you'll be fine.
>>14559161
Dyes for Fischer Price colours are cheaper.
>>14559470
there's the green unicorn too.
Out of all of them, astray is the only ugly one.
White is nice but in real life it would get dirty so fast...
>>14559692
Nope. Fugly red and green stripes.
>>14559255
Hyaku Shiki. It's considered a Gundam despite its name

You retard you should've picked the Delta Gundam
>>14559573
>>14560032
>>14560608
>>14561828
What's the difference?
>>14561999
It's what it looked like back when it was called a Gundam.
>>14561843
Okay then.
>>14559576
The Victory in my opinion is as close to perfect as you can get if you have to stick to the classic Gundam color scheme. White and blue almost always looks nice and the very slight accents of red and yellow help break it up.
Same reason Nu works so well. White and navy blue with yellow highlights and very minor red accents. If there were any more red, the whole color scheme would fall apart.
>>14559161
Needs less green.
Also if the filename is what you're going for, the beam sabers need to go too.
>>14561999
The delta is what the hyaku shiki was supposed to be, but due to budget cuts and rapidly increasing technology the delta got gimped and the zeta gundam was developed as the transforming unit.
>>14565643
No, you've got it backwards. The Delta Gundam came first as a theoretical design on paper, but they were unable to work out design flaws in the transforming frame and it was never actually built. They later reworked it into the non-transforming Hyaku Shiki as one of those special units for the AEUG.
There's nothing about AE having budget cuts or the Delta being inferior to the latest batch of Zeta era designs. In fact, the Delta Gundam design gets updated for the 0090s and kicks a lot of ass.
>>14559511
White on white is usually pretty top tier, having grey accents is also an option
>>14559576
The victory manages to take the typical color scheme and the minimalism works well with it
My personal favorite is white and very light shades of cloud blue or lavendar as Seen on the Hi-Nu Ver.Ka and G-self concept design
>>14561843
White color-schemes are GOAT
Gold on purple > *
Did somebody say white color schemes?
>>14559161
Red, blue, and yellow are "hero" colors in Japan. That's why you see so many super robots painted the same way.
>>14565934
now THAT is the White Devil.
