Just a quick question, is the ReZEL from Unicorn green or aqua-ish color?

...Did anyone else go temporarily blind when they saw that mech?
Not to the point where I couldn't see any parts that weren't from the Leopard there. That looks like a recolor and not a true franken. If I can be proven wrong, then it's fine, otherwise that doesn't count as a valid entry in my book.

Indeed...you are correct, i just compared his picture to the original leopard from Mark's site and nothing is different...so it's pretty much a recolor.

If it isn't green, it's green enough for me.

ReZEL is approved.

Re: March Franken-Gundam Contest: Amendments added March 14

Next Question!:

Do ace colors count, or does it have to use green as the standard colors?

As long as it's a canon color scheme for that mech, ace colors count.

Ok, I didn't get much sleep so I hope this question makes sense.

What about a mech that is a variant of a standard mobile suit (which is green) but said variant has not yet been seen in the standard (green) colors?

For example, the High Mobility Zaku is a variant of the ZakuII (which is green) but the MS-06-R1 does not have a green (standard color) lineart.

Acceptable or not?

For a different mech, I would likely say no. However, this Zaku you want comes in Black Tri-Stars colors, which have green, so it's okay.

I'll just post it now to get it out of the way, and so I can go back to my drawings.

I just called it "Megatank"

The Green;
Tank tread things are from the Zaku Tank (whatever you call them, the sections that have the tracks in them).
Tieren Head.
Torso from whatever this thing is from some obscure mecha game called "Front Mission". Never heard of it, but it's green...

They decided against that because most Gundam fans already have something up their butt.

Pretty cool.

Still not as cool as mine's gonna be, though. :twisted:

Front Mission's not that obscure.

Oh, and believe it or not, I'm actually working on something for this contest... I know most of the stuff I've posted here has stunk, but I've been quietly experimenting with various image manipulation programs for months now, and I think it's time to give a contest a go.

Of course, what I'm doing is such an obvious concept I'll probably be beaten to the punch by someone faster, but I'll get over it.

EDIT: I have a terrible feeling I'm about to find out it's a franken I saved rather than an official Gundam (I occasionally forget to tag them, especially if I'm pulling from a Japanese site), but is the Epsilon here "green"? I want its arms. Or rather, I don't want its arms, but I don't want the arms of any other green mech, and so its arms will have to do. If it's green. If it isn't, I'm in deep trouble.
Don't call it a comeback...
...in fact, it's best if you forget I was ever here before.

Green parts:
Astray Green Frame-Torso
GINN High Maneuver Type-Thrusters

I present to y’all my submission to this contest. They are:

ZGMF-600/s-MAA GuAIZ Heavy-MACS
Green parts used: Stark Jegan, GuAIZ

and

ZGMF-600/s-M GuAIZ Hi-MACS
Green parts used: GuAIZ, GINN High Maneuver Type, Hellion

If you haven’t guessed, the idea was taken from the Gundam Virtue. MACS stands for something along the lines of Mega-Assault Combat System. I haven’t exactly figured out what MACS stands for.
