Good for you. You drew either Fumina, Mirai or Gyanko naked....how about you draw something about the male characters or the Gunpla?
That problem's far from unique to Try, tho. For basically every piece of popular media these days, the vast majority of the fanworks focus on the romantic and sexual aspects rather than anything to do with the actual plot.

There's plenty of mecha fan art for TRY, it's not hard to find. I've gotten a lot bookmarked within Pixiv.
Yeah. I tend to unfollow/mute people posting NSFW art on my twitter feed. My terms for art meant lineart and drawings of the suits, normal character art/SD art, and other things of a SFW variety.

Where is the good Try fan art, please? Because I can only find the bad and it makes me very sad :(

You might want to be careful with Pixiv links, some questionable pics are popping up in the recommendations section.

I can't see em, I'm not over 18, so...

In any case, there's always artists that love questionable content. The actual content that I want to highlight is SFW.

Hey the romantic art's awesome, excuse you. I live for Meatbun fanart. :mrgreen:

Some of the shipping stuff is fine, but it can be a pain in the ass when that's ALL the fanworks ever focus on.

Xenosynth wrote:^ Agreed with the above posts. And not to mention, going off fanart, models, custom products (Such as charms), etc from many modelers and other Gundam fans I follow from Japan on twitter, it's not like Try is hated, it still gets frequent love from the watchers on my feed, about as much as G-Reco. I know that's not necessarily the best measurement but at the same time, it's something. And people are going to enjoy it whether you don't or not Balofo, you don't need to be an ass Try in every thread possible. Then again you also are doing it with The Origin, so I'm just convinced when you don't like something you have a clinical need to shove it in everyone's face.
And then there's Unicorn. :P

That's true. We came here for explosions and awesome battles, not romance. 8)

I think if I liked the mech action half as much in Try as I did in BF I would let off on some of the character development stuff.

Too much "Bruh2easy" eh? Well, all they had to do was copy the storytelling for rival teams- introduce opponents for the national tourney.

Also: More evenly matched fistfights that last 5-6 minutes.

It's two fold. On one hand the fights in BF had more weight to them because of the characters. Even fights with throwaway characters were fun because those characters were fun (Sazaki I'm looking at you). As I've mentioned before, BF did a very good job of not wasting time and setting up expectations with characters they weren't going to develop.

On the other hand, the fights in BF were just more dynamic, especially early in the series. I did feel like some fights became more stale near the last quarter of BF, but even then all those fights had notable moments. It just felt like every fight, like every episode, was planned out really well. The Fights in Try are a lot lazier, which, I think, is pretty disappointing given that the primary selling point of the show is Gunpla fighting!

I've already harped on endlessly about Try's problem with characters (I'm starting to repeat myself on how I repeat myself, how meta!), but I really think if they just got that second thing down I'd be more satisfied. It's not like Try has been god awful in the fights department, but there's only like one or two fights I can really say have been good so far, and we're 10 episodes in.

I suggest you to try Kuso Miso Technique, despite massive number of fan arts, they're all focus on males :mrgreen: . Sometime with over 9000 % hotblood-ish than original work.

Ninety percent of everything is crap. It's really depend on your taste and standard. Consider how many of them are there, you can't find one without keep digging. It also help if you aren't against porn or very suggestive artworks (as a pervert, I'm fine with it), as I know some will consider it to be insult/degradation regardless of their quality.
