@RedLadyJJ The Ground Gundam and Ground GM are also retrospective detailed-y designs that are added in for 08th MS.
The original GM looks much, much simpler than that.
@RedLadyJJ Cool art there from the last page, is it a part of an artbook?
From the look of thing, only the knee spikes have a real functionality.
They can simply simplify the other designs to just like the original Gundam, but they don't, because it's cool.
@RedLadyJJ I would say these.
Correct me if I'm wrong but what are the functions of these pieces, don't remember they are actually put to use in the show, additional armor?
@BillyonCrack102@Yorkieterrorist It's a pretty clear flight pack.
Oh well, I'm gonna stop here since it becomes a hard-to-see argument when I don't see it.
The overall shape is so clear.
@RedLadyJJ@Zobasalt I'm still a seeing a bunch of scan lines and details that aren't functional.
Hilariously though, I feel the Ez8 is closest to what can be said to be a dude in a suit.
@RedLadyJJ@Zobasalt I don't think there are any sense or realism in adding all these scans and details for the GP01, the only part is that it has a complex vernier system.
The details are there to make the GP01 looks cool.
The Ez8 also similarly has a ton of useless details but no function.
@TW0HEADEDBEAST The fact western porn games are simply just allowed to be sold on Steam makes it very suspect while eroge has to jump through hoops and create all-ages patch.
@RedLadyJJ@Zobasalt As said, the silhouette looks so clear to me, you can clearly make out which parts of the body.
And throw the whole realistic out of the window, if you try to make it too realistic, it ain't cool.
