For some clarification: I haven't abandoned any of the projects I've stated I've started on unless I've said so. At the moment I am focused on creating mobile suits that I plan to use in a Gundam based story I'm currently building upon, I haven't forgotten about my other projects and will eventually get to them. I realize I more often than not simply just post my work with very little additional exposition. I'll try to rectify this and start posting profiles and backstory info for all my work from now on. However, that's not really why I made this post.

Sujin [G Type]

Model Code:AUN-M279
Model Name: Sujin [G Type]
Unit Type: Mass Production General Use Mobile Suit
Development: Advanced United Nations: Grant Mobile Suit Technologies
Operators: AUN Military Forces, Alliance of Colonial Territories (ACT), and various private military companies
First Deployment: Stellar Century (SC): 187 [Still in Use]
Cockpit: Single Pilot Standard with Panoramic Monitor, located inside torso
Height: 19 Meters
Weight: Empty: 41.1 tons Max Gross: 52.6 tons
Armor Material: MS Grade C Titanium Composite
Powersource: Aeon Particle Battery, Optimum Operation Time: 74 minutes before recharge
Armaments: Fixed: None, Attachable: 120 mm Machine Gun, Standard Beam Subrifle, Beam Saber x2 (1 under each forearm)
Notes: The Sujin is the universal standard in MS combat and the mainstay of the AUN, ACT, and many PMCs. Noted for being the longest used MS in military history and one of the most versatile, the Sujin has been in service for over 60 years. The only changes the Sujin has received are cosmetic and minor performance upgrades over time. Without a major conflict to fuel MS development the AUN can afford to remain complacent with such an old design. Being equipped for general use, this model is only suited for close to mid-range combat.

This shall be the cannon fodder for the story. Currently I intend to start making an antagonist suit. I'm also aware it might be awkward to start throwing around terms in the profile too when I haven't set anything for this story up yet for anyone to see. The fact is I'm constantly changing things around and can't decide on anything final as of yet. However I can say the story takes place in your conventional Gundam universe, just not connected to anything official as the Stellar Century calendar indicates. These Aeon Particles also function similarly to GN Particles, however they are more or less just used as the main power source for almost every large machine in this universe.

I'll admit, this story is really just another evolution in the constant mentioning of me writing fanfics since I made this thread, I'm just finally making some slow headway.

I really like the white and green color scheme, Josh. It's something I've been meaning to use more, but it's a little hard to put it on a Gundam for whatever reason. I think the only problem I can spot is that its fists seem a bit small compared to the other body parts. I'm not sure if trying to fix that will screw up the other proportions, but if need be you might be able to compensate by lengthening the pelvis/skirt area.

If you want any help with your writing or just want to brainstorm out loud, there is a general thread in the fiction section you may find useful. I may also be able to convince you to join The Lost Citadel, which is a small writing forum that broke off from MT. The community is small, so you're more likely to get attention. (Link in sig, lol.)

What color will the antagonists be, I wonder?

Thanks Seraphic. The hands and arms are ripped directly from Raisel Gundam with no alterations, so that's not so much my fault as it was Takayuki Yanase's apparent inability to draw hands. I've already messed with the outline by widening and slightly shrinking it so any further alteration I fear will likely require me to just trace all over again. And I've been meaning to start posting in the fiction section more, just haven't gotten around to it quite yet. Also thanks for bringing that forum to my attention, I just might sign up.

I usually never decide on a color scheme until I'm done with the all the tracing and alterations so who knows what the next suit will have, but I'm thinking maybe something dark gray and blue.

This is one nice mobile suit Josh. Personally I don't see a problem with the hands but hey, just my opinion. You got the colors just right on this. They flow very nicely to make this some cannon fodder I want to remember. The tracing is top notch as well and coupled with the good coloring makes it very pleasing to the eyes. Well done and keep at it.

EDIT: fixd

edit: Apparently I'm an idiot who can't figure out ms stands for mobile suit.

Besides that, thanks. The original color scheme kept making me think Statue of Liberty.

Uhh.... Street View???? What the...

Looks good! I've been fiddling with Sketchup a bit lately, too (don't tell my boss ) but you've definitely got me beat.

Your guess is as good as mine as to why that's there. :s

Actually, that is because you tried to upload it from the webpage. If you go to the SketchUp software and choose upload to web, you'll be able to export a .skb model that has the 3D view thing and not the map.

Rasid Variant

Model number: WMS-05

Operator: Maganac Corps
Accommodation: pilot only, in standard cockpit in torso
Dimensions: head height 16.8 meters
Weight: unknown

Additional Info: As the war between OZ and the Gundam Pilots escalated, Quatre Raberba Winner decides that it would be a good idea to create a new suit for the Maganac Corps that can accompany him into space for additional support. Taking the battle data from the top pilots within the Corps and various customized features, Quatre successfully creates a powerful new version of the Maganac. Its main features are a vastly improved thruster system along with improved armor and an almost completely reworked inner frame to improve overall performance and adaptability to various environments. Ultimately however, Quatre finds his family's funds cannot produce this new suit en mass and the estimated time it would take to begin production was far too slow for the growing threat of OZ against the colonies.

Looks like another Knightmare is coming along nicely.
