Description Original design for GW: The Sword. It doesn't show up until a little later than where the story is right now.

I will post the profile when I create the design sheet.

Lineart here: [link]

If you have any questions or comments, please comment below. =o

maybe giving him 'gundam horn' can help people recognize it as gundam...

nice design anyway

I think I like its appearance enough that I'd rather just not call it a Gundam than add in a v-fin. Thanks for the input.

You know this does look like a gundam, just with the head part slid over the traditional face like a battle mask.

Yes I can see it and you're welcome.
It's a good feature to have on a Gundam.

Armament seems a bit skimpy, but it probably has something that overcomes that, huh?

And I'll have to agree with Rekkou, I love seeing variations in the "Gundam" design, but you need something here that will convince me that it is indeed a Gundam-type MS.. visually at least. I'm sure this MS makes people scream and run with fear aha.

Maybe the armament is a bit skimpy, but those weapons play towards the strengths of this unit, so I don't mind much. There are two of those handguns and it usually uses both at once. I'll just talk about it more when I post the profile.

Yeah, I agree as well. I just didn't know everybody would just come running in and hitting me over the head with it, lol. I don't particularly find the traditions too important, but whatever. The v-fins didn't go well with this visor, and I didn't want to put a goatee on a female MS, lol. Maybe some vents on the mouthpiece would have been fine.

Thank you for the comment.

Although some deviations are sometimes needed (I did one myself). But your design still have the obligation to convince your audience by itself. Without needing you to tell everyone.

Alright. Thank you for your thoughts.

If its name is Gundam, how does it look like a gundam? I judged its face.

There are dozens of MS out there with "Gundam faces" like the Murasame, Z-plus, Tallgeese II, Hyaku Shiki, Delta plus, and more, but they aren't called "Gundams".

If you would look into it, there is no actual convention for what is called a Gundam. You just have to call it by the name given by the creator. In this case, I'm calling it a Gundam. And yes, it's supposed to deviate from what is "normal".

Well, you need some variety in your Gundams, don't you? Thanks for the fave. =o

True, but they should at least have the traditional Gundam head/face.
