Custom Mecha: Updated October 27

I've been told I've had a distinct coloring style, lots of people like it. Heres a WIP piece I'm working on. It's a custom Gundam based on a few features you should see. (Most notably the R-1 ears). Colouring is not final. It's name is undecided, and it's era is not set in concrete yet. (I'm thinking about either 00, UC, or a new era).

Body and shoulders:

Detailed in Left Shoulder and Insignia (Not the most original):

Notes:
- The text on it's head crystal reads "Lumin"
- The ear things double as a stronger sensor or whatever I want to make it up as.
- My goal is to make it as real-type as possible, some opinions on it's weapons will help :)

Heres a piece of my old work (probably 2 years ago) and is this Mech's spiritual predecessor.

these are good, very very good. I don't see any real flaws. but I've never been good at pointing out flaws

Hmm...the spiritual predecessor looks very nice indeed, it gives off a Strike Gundam feeling, and maybe a bit of the Gundam Mk II, no idea where the Spikes come from though, myabe modified freedom wings? The legs to me seem a tad skinny other than that it is a good design.

The mech was largely based on a MKIII scan I had (Legs and Torso). The spikes are "original" drawings :) Colour-theme is Strike-ish with some yellow highlights. The rest I can't remember... Possibly a CE suit for the head (Strike or Freedom)

The head is a mod of the Strike's.
But quite nice indeed, and I can't wait to see more of this one.

From what I remember, Hi-Nu parts mixed with Freedom and some custom drawing.

EDIT: Updates on the first post
