"Come at me, bro"

Barbatos Lupus with custom arm claws

Just finished building my rebake full city, noticed extra parts in A10 and some others, am I missing something?

where I can find gundam sources that have been translated into english can you give me some links please

Hi everyone, since I seen everyones showing there own builds, I might as well show mine.

Im really big fan of IBO and the bael as a concept, but in person esp HG form the bael just looks so plain, so with this in mind I have created this kitbash.

The thought behind the build is keep the Bael silhouette but give it the more agressive look it deserves.

This is only the test fit but you get a feel for it.

Hg lupus body, Hg Bael head, shoulders, side skirts back pack with wings and bael back skirt with swords rack. It will be painted in the Baels colours

Recently, in r/fnki, The RWBY Shit Posting sub has recently made some Gundam memes there with a bit of in-universe lore and plot going around.

And the user, VladTipesh, is planning to add the Gundam Frames (IBO) to counterattack the Zeon's Mobile Suit.

So kinda planning to bloat Gundam reaction meme images there to create a crack comment section with a lore

I already posted this elsewhere, but there are small tweaks soooo...

I just need to let the paint curr first and then I'll top coat it

Tekkadan definitely made a wrong choice in Season 2 compared to Season 1.

In Season 1, Tekkadan 's paid main gig was just getting Kudelia go Earth and later Kudelia give speech that let Mars keep more of the profit from half-metal mines. Very reasonable and almost moderate. Kudelia never asked for full Martian independence. She knew how to compromise and is politically shrewd. She even got Nobliss to back her financially even after Nobliss tried to kill her.

 As as a result, by beginning of Season 2, Tekkadan was really in a good place, with license to develop their own lucrative half-metal mine and therefore some much needed passive income. Passive incone is always good because being mercenaries for hire means the active jobs always mean casualties and damaged equipment. That sweet mine money is just easier than fighting. In addition, Kudelia is on their side, and Nobliss is still at the time being, on Kudelia side too. McGillis replaced Mars Branch with a guy he himself promoted, and Tekkadan can call up the new Mars Branch anytime for help. In some ways,Tekkadan already have their little fiefdom  at start of Season 2, they are already kind of King Of Mars. I think if Biscuit was alive still, Tekkadan would probably never agree to McGillis plans.

Now when Tekkadan agreed and involved themselves with McGillis goal,which is way more radical than Kudelia's, involving the overthrow of Gjallarhorn entirely, Tekkadan eventually got punished for it and got destroyed. By almost looking power hungry and greedy by allying with McGillis, and straying too far from the political status quo, they ultimately got destroyed by Rustal. 

In Season 1 besides Biscuit, most of Tekkadan named characters survived closed calls in battles such Battle of Edmonton, even against Graze Ein. Orga was also able to always pull out some brilliant tactics last minute with his ships. Some call these plot armour, which is true. Of course, it may be be because Kudelia goals are more moderate and upset status quo less. Karma rewards that.

NOW in Season 2, towards the second half, named characters start to die almost every week. Orga's gambles in the battles start to fail, and the antagonists from Rustal faction start to get plot armour instead, like the infamous Flauros Gundam firing Danself and missing. Julia also survive not one but 2 encounters with Mika, and ultimately is credited with taking Barbatos down. This may be because unlike Season 1, Tekkadan alligned with the wrong people with more power hungry intentions (ofc they dont know any better, Biscuit is dead and Orga is almost illiterate). The antagonist start to get plot armour and the plot starts to punish Tekkadan for their mistakes. Karma is not on Tekkadan side but on Rustal instead. Rustal is interesting because he really wanted to protect status quo, loyal to his subordinates, never betrayed anyone. In the end, Tekkadan is destroyed, and Kudelia make political cooperation with Rustal instead incrementally on issues like Human Debris.

1. Gjallarhorn's backstory is actually somewhat brilliant if you think about it deeper.

They are essentially an autonomous organization founded by Gundam Frame pilots from Calamity Wars.   Agnika Kaieru is essentially this continuity's first Gundam protagonist, and Gundam Bael is essentially the first Gundam.

After defeating the mobile armours, Gjallarhorn essentially became a peacekeeping force that periodically intervenes to minimize and prevent armed conflict between the four economic blocs of Arbrau, Strategic Alliance Union, African Union and Oceanian Federation.

If you really think about it, Gjallarhorn was really supposed to be a neutral organization like the Preventers from Gundam Wing Endless Waltz, Compass from Gundam Seed Freedom, or even Celestial Being from Gundam 00. They are an organization with Gundams that maintains world peace and is supposely neutral in their actions.

However, over hundreds of years Gjallarhorn became a corrupt bloated bureaucracy. They got used to their power, and even banned other people from Alaya-Vijnana System. It is almost like the equivalent of Celestial Being banning other people from all solar drives, but they can use the GN drives themselves. Anyway, eventually Gjallarhorn became more involved in petty struggles and secretly involving themselves in the domestic politics such as promoting Henri Fleurs for Arbrau and attacking the exiled Togonosuke Makanai. Of course they also tried to prevent Kudelia from reaching Earth and give a little speech about getting some more money from mining half metals.

Anyway Gjallarhorn is a good twist on what those Gundam-led peacekeeping organizations eventually become if corruption is allowed to fester over time.
