UPDATE: GET YOUR EXCLUSIVELY SIGNED 11X17 COLORED PRINT HERE!surprised me with an awesome color job on my Gundam Wing Zero Vs. Optimus Prime fan art. Really happy with the outcome. What do you guys think? And who do you think has this fight, hands down? Can anyone think of a plausible scenario where these 2 would fight and be the same size, lol? I've thought of a couple myself, but I'd love to hear your thoughts! Thanks for viewin'! more to come!

great image!!! but... that's EW wing zero's twin buster rifle not the original one.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, I know. I purposely added in a bunch of different parts from multiple wing zero custom suits. So you could say this is my original take a bit, lol.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
K, but the torso looks like it came from wing and not a zero model. but that's ok it's still great work.
One more thing the sheild seems to be in mid air, did you make him JUST drop it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I used a bunch of details from different Gundam models, including the original wing model, but they're all pretty much derivatives of the most powerful Gundam wing models. Either way, it's a mixture. And the shield is attached to the arm so it moves with it. Glad you like the end result
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah, if you go by the story line wing zero is older by 15 years than the other gundam's. I was just asking because if you meant to have the shield attached as you say then you angled it to low and the beam saber to high. The shield is firmly attached to the arm and would allways be alligned with the arm.
Sorry I'm tight on details, i've seen multiple gundam series multiple times. In fact in the particular case of wing zero i actualy got it's figurine (i only got one gundam figure since it's not evry day you can get a gundam figure of the street without going to an overpriced sepcialised shop).

much luv for all involved when it comes together like this.....hottttt.

Cool. Great lines and colors! Personally, as much as I love Prime, I give it to Wing Zero. It can destroy an entire space colony in one shot.... Not really a fair fight...
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
First, unless a space colony is built for being in a combat zone, which would hugely multiply its cost and the amount of materials needed, it's not likely to have been built much stronger than it needs to be, which would probably mean it would be built to withstand about 2 atmospheres (30 lbs per square inch) of outward pressure. Translation, by military standards, a space colony would be a FRAGILE thing. Compared to a combatant vehicle, it would seem like a soap bubble, or eggshell.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Whoa, wall of text...
Well every shot of the buster rifle also made military grade mobile suits pop like eggs too. SO unless they are made of cardboard (which is probable in Wing...) the Buster Rifle's damage output is in fact extreme. Also, the colony doesn't just get shot and fall apart. Its completely disintegrated. That's pretty crazy.
But I don't care too much, so if you want Optimus to win, that's fine.

Good point. Although, (he commented below) made a compelling counter-argument for Prime. Hard to say where this thing can go. But it would definitely be cool to see

Sure would be, which is why we nerds love to see these awesome pics

I can't think of a plausible scenario to cause such a confrontation, but I would have to give the fight to Optimus Prime.
The Gundam is being piloted, which will introduce an unavoidable lag between the pilot's decision to do something while he translates that plan into how to manipulate the controls and the mech acts. The pilot also has a lesser 'body consciousness' of exactly where all parts of the mecha's frame is at all times. Additionally, hard impacts to the torso of the mecha can slam the pilot around, possibly rattling or stunning the pilot in close quarters battle, perhaps even causing mishandling of the controls.
Optimus would have all his experience in combat against opponents of his scale, which would include the timing of larger scale motion. His cumulative in-combat time would doubtlessly add up to literally years spent in physically active combat. The Pilot's time in cockpit simply couldn't match up.
Clearly at this point, any attempts at diplomacy have failed, forcing Optimus Prime to engage in a fight.
Unless the people scripting the battle and choreographing the fight are Gundam fanatics, in which case they'll find some way for 'New Type' human spirit to triumph over all those disadvantages.

I was thinking The Gundams could end up being sentient like the transformers, and work in tandem with the pilot.
this could be a result of scientists finding out that maybe the Gundams were constructed from long lost, ancient Cybertronian tech.
I mean, hell, Wing Zero's practically a transformer already, lol.
As for the size difference and reason for the battle, human federations in the Gundam storyline could try to colonize Cybertron in the process of being rebuilt.
The Gundams and Transformers come into play because the Gundams are basically military weapons initially so they'll be sent to fight on orders, but they find out they share a new link with their Transformer kin.
Maybe the "evil" scientists or bureaucrats of the Gundam world find out about the matrix of leadership some how, or the "cube", or just figure out how to gain access to the power source of Cybertron. You got reason for a misunderstanding right there, lol. the size can be explained by either Wing Zero being retrofitted for equal combat with Optimus or initially trying to pass as an autobot, or Optimus getting bigger, devastator-style. Not a perfect plot. I'm not a transformers or Gundam fanatic, so there's a lot that don't know about, concerning both storylines. But I think there's enough there to start with. We're talking about a climactic battle here, so things would build up to these 2 fighting. it wouldn't just happen on the fly
Your raise some crazy good points though, on the advantages and disadvantages these 2 would actually have in a fight. Thanks for sharing
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
With regard to the Gundams being sentient and 'working in tandem' with pilots, that would actually aggravate the decision lag in an unpredictable fashion, since the Gundam, being sentient, would not always be in full agreement with the control impulses of the pilot. Worse, it would become an unpredictable issue, rather than the more consistent decision lag experienced by a pilot in a non-sentient vehicle. It would wind up being 'piloting by committee'. One personality would have to be consistently dominant. If the Gundam is sentient, why would a pilot by needed?
The Cybertronian-tech based Gundam idea is in direct conflict to the classic design philosophy that Yoshiuki Tomino used in developing the basic stories of the Gundam Universe, that the Gundams were a military adaptation of what was initially a utility powerframe for space construction.
If you bring in Cybertronian tech anywhere in the construction cycle of the Gundams, you're essentially turning the product into a Gundam-shaped Transformer, which puts the entire conflict into the classic Cybertronian war cycle.

Well that's kinda the point. I don't see a problem linking the Gundams to Cybertron. Can't really see how else to get these 2 fighting. We'd have to meld the 2 stories some how. And semi-sentience worked for Evangelion. And G-Gundam pilots pretty much had their Gundams reacting to their every movement. As far as the decision lag and all that goes, it would really depend on how strong a link and the nature of link there is between the Gundam and the pilot, wouldn't it?
The fact that these 2 are fighting already puts both their respective universes in conflict. But that's the point too. There's a conflict. How else do you propose these 2 get into a plausible fight? And of course, not all the Gundams have to have Cybertronian tech in them. It could be just Wing Zero, maybe a few others. Since they basically dwarf most transformers, Not all the Gundams need to be Cybertron-linked. Most of them could still pose a threat until Optimus or another transformer levels the playing field (size-wise). The main point is to get these 2 fighting. Sure there's a lot of holes to fill, but i think it's enough to get them fighting just for fun, lol. You seem to know a lot about both franchises. You can't think of any plausible way to get these 2 fighting at some point? Or would you rather not, lol?

Plausible reasons for Prime to fight a Gundam, those would be easy to develop, especially if the Gundams are sentient and under the control of a pilot.

That's a brilliant art concept! I don't know why it startled me so much when the match up is so fitting haha!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
lol. A lot of ppl were saying when I first drew this that the Gundams dwarf most of the transformers in size so this couldnt possibly happen. But there's always a way
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I agree. Someone needs to make this happen. Hell, if they can do Freddy Vs. Jason, surely they can make THIS match-up happen, lol.
