Artist's Comments

Series: Zeta Gundam / ZZ Gundam

Qubeley
(Kyu- Bell- AY) not (Kweb-Lee)

My wife rather likes this machine and since it was her request (and she was feeling a bit sick yesterday) I figured now is a good time to post.

Personally, the Qubeley is one of my all-time favorite Mobile Suits from the Gundam metaverse, mostly because of it's incredibly off-beat design, but secondly because of it's incredible power in the series, and third because the pilot is female. Thankfully, she's not some weak minded, peace loving crybaby -- but instead a scornful, conniving leader with incredible NEWTYPE power -- and a bit crazy.

The machine itself is built for "NEWTYPES" and is piloted by Haman Karn, who has piloted at least one other Newtype machine (Schnee Weiss - a white Rick Dom refitted with extra armor and accompanied by a pod of remote controlled "bits"). Similar to the Schnee Weiss, the Qubeley contains a rear mounted pod containing 10 remote controlled bits. The arms hide a pair of beam sabers which also act as beam weapons. One of the more striking features, the arm mounted wing binders, functions mostly in mass balance control in space, a system labeled (A.M.B.A.C.). Interestingly, there is more than one type of "Qubeley" as the Qubeley MKII's enter limited production in ZZ Gundam with mass produced units (each containing 30 remote controlled bits) coming later.

The white is my favorite however. There is a rabbit head on the left wing binder, which is what my wife requested. She gets the much larger version as well.

Software: Lightwave 3D (modelling/rendering), Hexagon (some UV's), Photoshop (nebulae map/post process)

edit
Some Qubeley background info has been rectified.

Mahaha!
He's back! And with a Quebley!
It's awful sweet of you to do this for her, dude. And that's an awesome suit as well! My friend Scott is absolutely obsessed with the Quebley.
Such a wierd design...and only for Newtypes?
My question is...did any of these designs carry on into Chars Counterattack? (I've not watched it, but I've seen all the units from it; Char's unit uses the same bits (Though seriously, a helluva bunch of them do), but also the strange design and overall appearance seem at least vaguely similar to me.)
Either way, sweet work, dude. It looks great the way you did it! And the posework is quite something, too.
